Recruiting studies
- NCT05833867RecruitingPhase 1
Bladder cancer trial combining radiation and Sacituzumab
This Phase 1 study tests whether a new bladder-cancer treatment plan—radiation given at the same time as sacituzumab govitecan—can help people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer without starting with traditional chemo/radiation. Because it’s early-stage, the main goal is safety and learning the best way to use this combination to preserve the bladder.
Cleveland, OhioAges 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+ - NCT05706129RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing targeted imaging and therapy for advanced solid tumors
This early-phase study tests two radioactive medicines that first help doctors see tumors and, in some parts of the study, treat them. It may help people with advanced, hard-to-remove cancers that have a specific tumor marker (CA IX).
MelbourneAges 18 years+ - NCT05595408Recruiting
Tracking tumor DNA to predict relapse after upper kidney cancer surgery
This study checks tumor DNA found in blood and urine to see who is at higher risk of the cancer coming back after surgery. It may help doctors identify “minimal residual disease,” meaning tiny amounts of cancer that can remain after treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05521698RecruitingPhase 1
Bicalutamide for early-stage bladder cancer
This trial tests whether the drug bicalutamide can help men with early-stage (non-invasive) bladder cancer, which has not grown into the bladder muscle. It is given before surgery to see if it can reduce the chance of the cancer coming back. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive bicalutamide or a placebo before their scheduled surgery.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05327647RecruitingPhase 2
Bicalutamide with BCG for bladder cancer after BCG treatment
This trial studies whether bicalutamide can improve outcomes for people with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer who are starting BCG through the bladder. It may help prevent cancer from coming back or progressing after BCG.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05126472RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of 2141-V11 for bladder cancer that did not respond to standard treatment
This trial tests a new drug, 2141-V11, for people with bladder cancer that has not gone away after standard treatments like BCG therapy. It may help those with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer or, in one group, muscle-invasive bladder cancer, who cannot have or choose not to have bladder removal surgery.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT04574960RecruitingPhase 3
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy before kidney/ureter cancer surgery
This Phase 3 trial studies giving cisplatin-based chemotherapy before surgery for certain newly diagnosed upper-urinary-tract urothelial cancers (kidney/ureter). It may help shrink the cancer and improve outcomes by treating microscopic disease earlier.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04106115RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Durvalumab vaccine trial for high-risk bladder cancer after BCG
This early-phase trial tests durvalumab given with an experimental bladder cancer vaccine to help stop or slow high-risk bladder cancer that did not respond to or cannot be treated with BCG. It also evaluates safety and how well the treatment works in this setting.
CambridgeAges 18 years+ - NCT06262516Recruiting
Lymph node removal during kidney/ureter cancer surgery
This study looks at whether removing nearby lymph nodes during standard kidney/ureter removal surgery helps people with upper tract urothelial carcinoma. You will be placed into one of two groups – one gets the usual surgery alone, the other gets surgery plus lymph node removal.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 19 years+ - NCT07296705RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo to save the bladder in HER2-positive bladder cancer
This trial tests combining two newer drugs (zanidatamab and tislelizumab) with standard chemotherapy before bladder surgery. The goal is to shrink the tumor so the bladder can be saved instead of removed.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–85 - NCT06637423RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of sacituzumab tirumotecan for low-grade bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug called sacituzumab tirumotecan for people with low-grade bladder cancer that hasn't spread into the bladder muscle. The goal is to see if it can help shrink or control the tumors.
Bakersfield, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06525571RecruitingPhase 3
Blue light surgery for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests if using blue light during surgery helps remove all cancer in people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. It may lower the chance of the cancer coming back.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07726992RecruitingPhase 3
New drug plus BCG for high-risk bladder cancer
This study tests a new immunotherapy drug (SHR-1501) combined with standard BCG therapy for people with a specific type of early bladder cancer (papillary-only, high-risk). The goal is to see if the combination helps prevent cancer from returning better than BCG alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07647289RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy before bladder cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (eribulin and toripalimab) given before surgery to remove bladder cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for people with advanced or high-risk bladder cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06186414RecruitingPhase 1
SIM0237 with or without BCG for bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug, SIM0237, alone or with BCG, for people with a type of bladder cancer called non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) that did not respond to BCG treatment. The goal is to see if it is safe and works against the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06696794RecruitingPhase 3
Testing mitomycin before surgery for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests whether giving mitomycin directly into the bladder before surgery can help people with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective at preventing cancer from coming back.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07202819Recruiting
Chemotherapy and MRI before bladder surgery
This study looks at how well MRI scans can detect bladder cancer after chemotherapy, before surgery to remove the bladder. It may help doctors know if the chemo is working.
Asyut, Asyut GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT06995677RecruitingPhase 2
Study of TYRA-300 for bladder cancer that has not spread into muscle
This trial tests a new pill, TYRA-300, for people with a certain type of early-stage bladder cancer that has a specific genetic change (FGFR3). The goal is to see if it can help by targeting the cancer cells and possibly avoiding more invasive treatments.
Homewood, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06972615RecruitingPhase 2
Bladder chemo plus pembrolizumab for BCG-treated cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy placed directly into the bladder and an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab (given through a vein) for people with high-risk bladder cancer that has not completely responded to or has returned after BCG treatment.
CABAAges 18 years+ - NCT06663137RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new treatment for high-grade bladder cancer
This trial tests a new treatment called NDV01 KIT for people with high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer that hasn't gotten better after BCG therapy. It's for those who cannot or choose not to have their bladder removed.
RaananaAges 18–80 - NCT06567743RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new virus therapy for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests a new virus-based medicine, cretostimogene grenadenorepvec, given directly into the bladder for people with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It may help prevent the cancer from coming back, especially for those who have not had BCG treatment or whose cancer did not respond to BCG.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05519241RecruitingPhase 1
Experimental bladder cancer treatment for early-stage, BCG-unresponsive disease
