Optimized Perioperative Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Radical Cystectomy
Cystectomy with urinary diversion (ileal conduit, orthotopic ileal bladder substitute, continent catheterizable pouch) is the best treatment option for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. This intervention is one of the most challenging in urology and has a high rate of postoperative complications including around 30% of postoperative infections. Perioperative antibiotic ...
Savolitinib vs. Sunitinib in MET-driven PRCC
This study is designed for patients diagnosed with MET-driven, unresectable and locally advanced or metastatic Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to see if an investigational new anti-cancer medication, savolitinib, is effective in treating patients with MET-driven PRCC, how it compares with another medication frequently used ...
Pre-Operative Single Shot Rectus Sheath Block
Purpose: To improve analgesia and reduce opioid consumption in patients undergoing major urologic surgery. Hypothesis: Patients receiving pre-operative single shot rectus sheath blockade in addition to continuous rectus sheath catheters will use less PCA opioid in the first 24 hours post-operatively compared to patients receiving continuous rectus sheath blockade for ...
Family Caregiver Palliative Care Intervention in Supporting Caregivers of Patients With Stage II-IV Gastrointestinal Gynecologic Urologic and Lung Cancers
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Test the effects of the Family Caregiver Palliative Care Intervention (FCPCI) on family caregivers of patients with gastrointestinal, gynecologic, urologic and lung cancers in the experimental group on caregiver burden and caregiving skills preparedness as compared to family caregivers in the control group. II. Test the effects ...
Unmet Supportive Care Needs in Bladder Cancer Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy
Nowadays, high-quality cancer care is more than just diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Healthcare must respond to the specific needs of the patients to provide patient-centered care. To date, research on the unmet supportive care needs in bladder cancer patients undergoing radical cystectomy is scarce. Because the needs of the ...
Interest of a Geriatric Intervention Plan Associated to a Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment on Autonomy Quality of Life and Survival of Patients Aged 70 Years Old and More Surgically Treated for a Resectable Cancer (Thoracic Digestive or Urologic). Randomized Multicentric Study
The curative treatment of thoracic (lung and oesophagus), digestive (gastric, pancreatic, hepatic, colorectal), and urologic (renal, bladder, prostatic) cancers needs a surgical resection. For patients aged of 70 years old and more, this surgery is associated to an increased morbid-mortality especially because of more frequent co-morbidities. Comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) ...
Genetic Study of Patients With Inherited Urologic Malignancies
OBJECTIVES: - Characterize the natural and clinical histories of patients with inherited urologic malignancies. - Determine the genetic etiology of inherited urologic malignancies in which the gene defect is unknown, using linkage analysis, positional cloning, and evaluation of candidate genes. - Correlate specific mutations and associated protein domains with disease ...
IVIG in the Treatment of Metastatic Cancers of the Prostate Colon and Melanoma
This study is a one arm, open label, multi-center, phase II study. Its aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IVIG administered as treatment for metastasis solid tumors. IVIG was proven as affecting the growth of tumor metastasis in animals’ models. Study population is including male or female, ...
Afatinib Monotherapy in Patients With ERBB-deregulated Metastatic Urothelial Tract Carcinoma After Failure of Platinum Based Chemotherapy
The purpose of this trial is to assess the anti-tumour activity and safety of afatinib monotherapy in patients with urothelial tract carcinoma carrying ERBB2 or ERBB3 mutations or ERBB2 amplifications (Cohort A), and EGFR amplification positive tumours (Cohort B), progressing despite previous platinum based chemotherapy, and thereby to improve their ...
Trial of Ado-Trastuzumab Emtansine for Patients With HER2 Amplified or Mutant Cancers
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, a drug called ado-trastuzumab emtansine has on the patient and their cancer which is thought to be controlled by the abnormal HER2 gene.
