This study uses a smartphone program to encourage physical activity in older adults who have survived cancer and have ongoing pain. It aims to learn how to best help you move more and feel better.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 65 years+ - NCT06770582RecruitingPhase 2
Adding immunotherapy to radiation for bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab to radiation therapy works as well as or better than the usual chemotherapy given with radiation for a type of bladder cancer that has not invaded the muscle. It is for people whose cancer came back or has high-risk features and who would otherwise need to have their bladder removed.
Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05080998Recruiting
Tracking bladder cancer recurrence with repeated urine tests
This study follows people with past bladder cancer to see how bladder cancer comes back over time. You would provide urine samples at several visits, which helps researchers evaluate urine tests that may spot recurrence earlier.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06465069RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for advanced bladder and other solid tumors
This study tests a new drug (LY4052031) for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially bladder cancer. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective when given alone or after other treatments have stopped working.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05796375RecruitingPhase 2
Urine testing instead of repeat bladder scope checks
This Phase 2 study tests whether urine tests can help monitor “non-muscle-invasive” bladder cancer without doing as many invasive bladder scopes (cystoscopies). If you qualify, you may be able to replace some scope visits with urine sample testing while still keeping close watch for cancer coming back.
West Haven, ConnecticutAges 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+ - NCT02993900Recruiting
Brachytherapy guided by imaging for gynecologic cancers
This study tests image-guided internal radiation (brachytherapy) for certain gynecologic cancers. It may help deliver radiation more precisely by using scans done close to enrollment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT03379909RecruitingPhase 2
Metformin taken by mouth for early bladder cancer
This trial studies whether a diabetes medicine called metformin can help prevent or control non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer inside the bladder. You would take it by mouth, and the study checks safety and whether it works.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT04532606RecruitingPhase 4
Remimazolam to improve outcomes after bladder tumor surgery
This trial tests whether the anesthesia medicine remimazolam can improve recovery and longer-term outcomes after surgery for early-stage bladder cancer. If you are having a bladder tumor procedure through the urethra, this study may help doctors understand whether this anesthesia choice matters for prognosis.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50–90 - NCT05037279RecruitingPhase 3
Testing BCG treatment for bladder cancer after full tumor removal
This trial studies a BCG-based bladder instillation in people with newly diagnosed, intermediate- or high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer who have had their tumor fully removed. The goal is to see whether this treatment is safer and works better to lower the chance of the cancer coming back.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05067101Recruiting
Compare two bladder cancer surgeries in men
This trial compares two types of bladder surgery to see which works better for certain men with bladder cancer. It may help you and your doctors choose the safest option that controls the cancer while preserving quality of life.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 20 years+ - NCT05337397Recruiting
Outpatient laser treatment for repeat low-grade bladder tumors
This trial tests an outpatient laser procedure to remove recurring low-grade, non-solid bladder tumors. It may help prevent or control tumor growth with treatment done outside the hospital, if you meet the tumor and health criteria.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05366881Recruiting
Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT05710848RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for repeat bladder tumor surgery patients
This trial tests STM-416, given around the time you have surgery to remove recurring bladder tumors, to see if it can reduce the chance the cancer comes back. It is for people with high-risk early bladder cancer (non–muscle-invasive) who have already had standard treatment and now need another TURBT.
Mesa, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05982561Recruiting
Testing a urine test for bladder cancer recurrence
This trial tests a new urine test (BCDx) to see if it can catch bladder cancer coming back in people with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who are already having regular check-ups. You would give a urine sample before your routine cystoscopy, and the results may help doctors monitor your cancer more easily.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06022029RecruitingPhase 1
Study of injected ONM-501 alone or with cemiplimab for advanced cancers
This trial tests an injected study drug (ONM-501) alone or with another drug (cemiplimab) for people with advanced solid tumors or lymphomas that haven't responded to other treatments. It aims to find a safe dose and see if the combination helps shrink or control the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06167356Recruiting
