Comparing new drug to standard chemo for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new targeted drug, BL-M07D1, against standard chemotherapy in people with advanced bladder cancer that has grown after immunotherapy. It may offer a new treatment option for those with a specific protein (HER2) on their cancer cells.
Macon, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07848854RecruitingPhase 2
New imaging test to spot bladder cancer during surgery
This trial tests a special dye that binds to bladder cancer cells and makes them glow during surgery. It may help doctors find and remove the cancer more completely.
Kunming, YunnanAges 18–80 - NCT07820566Recruiting
Personalized 3D tumor model for kidney, bladder, and prostate cancers
This study uses your tumor sample to build a personalized 3D model that mimics how your cancer grows. The goal is to better understand these cancers and potentially find more effective treatments in the future.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07804056RecruitingPhase 3
Alpha1H before surgery for low-risk bladder cancer
This study tests a new medicine called Alpha1H that is given before the usual surgery to remove bladder cancer. It may help lower the risk of the cancer coming back.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT07782164Recruiting
Irreversible electroporation for recurrent pelvic tumors
This study tests a new technique called irreversible electroporation (IRE) for treating pelvic tumors that have returned despite earlier treatment. IRE uses electrical pulses to destroy cancer cells without surgery, offering a potential option when other local treatments like surgery or radiation are not suitable.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07747740RecruitingPhase 2
Bladder cancer treatment after BCG therapy fails
This trial compares two combinations of chemotherapy drugs given directly into the bladder to see which works better for patients whose bladder cancer has not responded to BCG therapy.
Moscow, MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT07726602Recruiting
Tumor DNA blood test for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This trial uses a blood test to look for small pieces of tumor DNA (ctDNA) after treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It aims to find out if the test can detect leftover or returning cancer earlier, helping guide next steps.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT07717242RecruitingPhase 2
Bladder cancer study testing a new drug combination before surgery
This trial is testing a combination of two drugs (disitamab vedotin and toripalimab) for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has not spread. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor before surgery. You may qualify if your tumor has a certain level of a protein called HER2.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07673016Recruiting
Collecting urine to test a new bladder cancer detection method
This study collects urine samples to test UroAmp, a new genetic test that may help detect and monitor bladder cancer. It is for people with bladder cancer or blood in urine who want to help improve cancer detection.
Oceanside, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07667335RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination therapy for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs for advanced bladder cancer (including cancer of the renal pelvis or ureter) that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and effective.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07646847Recruiting
A support program for people with cancer on immunotherapy
This study tests a program that helps people with cancer manage side effects and find resources for needs like food, transportation, or housing. It is for patients who are starting or recently started immunotherapy for certain cancers.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07638410Recruiting
Getting fit before major cancer surgery
This trial tests whether special preparation exercises and wellness support before chemotherapy and major abdominal or pelvic surgery can help you recover better and stay stronger. You'll work with a team including exercise specialists and mental health counselors before your operation.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07602010Recruiting
Comparing CT and MRI scans for bladder cancer staging
This trial compares two imaging methods—CT and MRI scans—to see which one better shows how far bladder cancer has spread before surgery. If you have newly diagnosed bladder cancer and are planning surgery, this study may help doctors choose the best imaging for your care.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT07589413Recruiting
Blood markers and fluid absorption during bladder cancer surgery
This study looks at how fluid absorbed during bladder cancer removal surgery affects cell-free DNA (tiny pieces of cancer DNA) in your blood. Researchers want to understand if these blood markers can help predict surgery outcomes and guide treatment decisions.
Lanzhou, GansuAges 18 years+ - NCT07579195RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Consolidation therapy after EV + pembro in bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy or bladder-removal surgery (consolidation) after EV + pembrolizumab helps control muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has spread. It is for people whose cancer responded to the initial drug combination.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07581496Recruiting
Blood test to detect bladder cancer DNA after surgery
This study examines whether a simple blood test can detect cancer DNA (circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA) in patients with a specific type of bladder cancer. Detecting this DNA in blood may help doctors predict how the cancer will behave and guide future treatment decisions.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07548476Recruiting
