Urothelial Carcinoma Clinical Trials

This phase II trial compares the impact of subcutaneous (SC) nivolumab given in an in-home setting to an in-clinic setting on cancer care and quality of life. Currently, most drug-related cancer care is conducted in clinic type centers or hospitals which may isolate patients from family, friends and familiar surroundings for many hours per day. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. Traveling to and from medical facilities costs time, money, and effort and can be a disadvantage to patients living in rural areas, those with low incomes or poor access to transport. Studies have shown that cancer patients often feel more comfortable and secure being cared for in their own home environments. SC nivolumab in-home treatment may be safe, tolerable and/or effective when compared to in-clinic treatment and may reduce the burden of cancer and improve the quality of life in cancer patients.

This is a phase II randomized study of standard of care (SOC) neo-adjuvant cisplatin chemotherapy (NAC) versus NAC plus durvalumab in patients with either clinical or pathologic intra-pelvic node-positive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. Patients with cTanyN1-3M0 via American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition staging30 will be considered tor enrollment in this trial. We plan to enroll 60 patients. Patients will be randomized 2:1 to the intervention arm with durvalumab plus NAC vs SOC NAC. In patients randomized to receive, durvalumab will be continued as maintenance every 4 weeks until either relapse or 1 year, whichever event occurs first. Tissue collection will occur as a biopsy prior to initiation of neo-adjuvant therapy via both transurethral biopsy of bladder and lymph node biopsy. Tissue will again be collected at the time of radical cystectomy or, in patients who are no longer surgical candidates, in the form of biopsy as standard of care. Blood and urine will be collected at baseline, week 2, week 6, week 16, and at the 6 week-post surgery visit for analysis of correlative studies. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the feasibility, safety and tolerability of intravesical adoptive cell therapy using TIL (tumor infiltrating lymphocytes) in participants with urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC) non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Read Less

The purpose of this study is to understand the metabolism of cancers involving the kidney, including renal cell carcinomas and urothelial cell carcinomas, and how kidney cancers use different types of fuel to support tumor growth. This study uses specially labeled nutrient tracers of compounds normally found circulating in the blood. The nutrients (glucose, fructose, glutamine, acetate, and lactate) are also found in common foods. A nutrient tracer will be given to the participants through an intravenous (IV) catheter during surgery or biopsy, and blood will be collected every 30 minutes during the infusion to monitor safety parameters and the nutrient tracers. The investigators will collect a tissue sample after the completion of surgery. Participants not having an infusion will have their tissue collected after surgery or biopsy. Participation in this study will not change patient care. All patients will receive standard of care treatment as determined by their doctors. Read Less

This is a first-in-human (FIH), Phase 1 open-label, multicentre dose escalation study investigating AVA6000 monotherapy administered intravenously in patients with locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumours that are likely to be FAP positive. The study consists of an initial Phase 1a dose escalation portion and a subsequent Phase 1b dose expansion portion upon completion of the dose escalation portion. Read Less

There is currently no accepted screening strategy for patients at high risk of developing bladder cancer. This study will ask patients to complete a urine test every 6 months for 2 years to help assess if routine screening helps finding bladder cancer at an earlier stage. Read Less

This trial aims at investigating the diagnostic ability of a combined diagnostic panel including systematic endoscopic evaluation (SEE), blood-based ctDNA assay, and urine-based cfDNA assay to predict the presence of residual tumor remaining in the bladder at cystectomy. Patients who are planned for cystectomy due to bladder cancer will be considered for enrollment based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Read Less

This is a phase 2 study, single-arm study of adjuvant combination therapy with Sacituzumab Govitecan and Nivolumab in patients with muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder, ureter, or upper tract, who are high risk for cancer recurrence post curative-intent surgery based on surgical pathology.

This study will collect de-identified tumor samples, with correlated clinical/demographic data and tissue histology, from patients selected or scheduled for pre-treatment tumor biopsy or who have had a recent pre-treatment tumor biopsy. These specimens and clinical data may be used in subsequent studies for the development and validation of a diagnostic test. Read Less

The purpose of this registry is to evaluate real world experience and outcomes of patients with Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer (UTUC) treated with Jelmyto in the United States. Read Less

This study will test whether enfortumab vedotin combined with pembrolizumab is an effective treatment for people with bladder cancer (urothelial carcinoma) involving the lymph nodes who are going to have surgery to remove their cancer (cystectomy). The researchers will look at whether treatment with enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab before surgery can get rid of cancer within the lymph nodes. They will also try to find out if this combination of drugs is effective at shrinking participants' cancer before their surgery. The researchers think that a combination of enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab may help people with this disease because both drugs are designed to help the immune system attack and kill cancer cells. The researchers think the drugs may be more effective if given in combination rather than on their own. Read Less

This Phase 3, single-arm, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of UGN-103, a novel formulation of UGN-102, instilled in the urinary bladder of patients with low-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-NMIBC). Read Less
