Bladder Cancer Clinical Trials

The extent of hepatic resection for gallbladder cancer has a wide range. A partial hepatectomy involving the gallbladder fossa is a critical part of the resection but can range from a wedge resection to an anatomic resection of segments 4b and 5 to an extended right hepatectomy. This study enrolls ...

Carcinoma of the gallbladder is the commonest malignancy of the biliary tract. United states has an incidence of 1/100000.Higher incidence has been noted in Chile, Mexico and Southwest American Indians. It is the third most common malignancy in India. The disease may mimic benign disease in presentation. Now 78-85% of ...

To investigate the methylation status of 4-6 genes in Urine and matching bladder tissue biopsies, in order to find methylation markers for use in a noninvasive test in monitoring patients with bladder tumors.

OBJECTIVES Primary To evaluate whether 3 Tesla MRI can accurately determine the primary tumor (T) stage and pelvic lymph nodes (N) stage in patients with localized bladder cancer as compared to histopathology staging. Secondary To determine whether 3 Tesla MRI can determine if the primary bladder tumor is responding to ...

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the feasibility of adjuvant radiation in the management of high-risk disease. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Prospectively evaluate patterns of failure in high-risk bladder cancer patients after cystectomy and aggressive adjuvant therapy. II. Define surgical and histopathologic parameters predictive of local and distant outcomes (e.g. grade, lymphovascular space ...

The SYNERGY Registry is an international prospective, observational cohort study of eligible adult and pediatric pts with advanced solid and hematological malignancies, for whom the decision to consider CTE has already been made by their primary providers (PP). Using a proprietary application programming interface (API) linked to existing electronic health ...

The purpose of this study is to create a registry, which is a "bank" of information about patients who have had similar medical conditions and treatments. The registry will be used by researchers to learn more about long term outcome of patients with bladder cancer, how bladder cancer tissues are ...

Bladder cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. The rate of occurrence of these tumors is highest in the developed countries, ranking as the sixth most frequent neoplasm. Approximately 90% of malignant tumors arising in the bladder are of epithelial origin, the majority being transitional cell carcinomas. Early ...

The purpose of this study is to determine if TAR-200, an investigational drug-delivery system, is safe and tolerable in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who are unfit for radical cystectomy (RC) during an 84-day induction period comprised of four consecutive 21-day dosing cycles.

Summary Purpose and Objective: The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of rapid acquisition of point of care 3D ultrasound in obtaining abdominal and/or pelvic images. The study will use a newly developed acquisition method and post-processing technique to create three dimensional image models of the abdomen ...
