Recruiting studies
- NCT07452432Recruiting
Study of chemo before surgery for aggressive kidney/ureter cancer
This study tests whether giving chemotherapy before surgery can help patients with high-grade upper tract cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to find better ways to treat this aggressive cancer.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05562830RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study for bladder or urinary tract cancer after PD-1 failure
This Phase 1/2 study tests investigational cancer treatment(s) in people with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer that has not responded to PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy. It may help by trying a new approach after prior checkpoint treatment has stopped working or the cancer returns.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04617756RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab plus chemo before surgery for high-risk upper urinary tract cancer
This trial studies whether durvalumab (an immunotherapy) given with chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with high-risk cancer in the kidney pelvis or ureter. It is mainly looking at safety and effectiveness in shrinking or controlling the cancer before treatment continues.
Paris, Paris Cx 20Ages 18 years+ - NCT06682728RecruitingPhase 2
Treating high-risk bladder cancer after surgery
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (sacituzumab govitecan and nivolumab) given after surgery to prevent the return of muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It is for patients whose cancer has a high chance of coming back despite surgery.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06354231RecruitingPhase 2
Kidney-sparing combo for high-risk ureter cancer
This trial tests a combination of an oral targeted drug (DV) and an immunotherapy (Toripalimab) to preserve kidney function in people with high-risk upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) who cannot have their kidney and ureter removed. It is for patients with only one kidney, reduced kidney function, or cancer in both ureters.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07129993RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing two drug combinations for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (Dato-DXd plus chemotherapy) against a standard chemotherapy combination for advanced bladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It is for people whose cancer has grown after treatment with the drugs enfortumab vedotin (Padcev) and pembrolizumab (Keytruda).
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06356155RecruitingPhase 2
Study of two drugs before surgery for upper tract cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab, given before surgery for upper tract urothelial cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for patients who are candidates for surgery.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06862219RecruitingPhase 4
Enfortumab Vedotin safety study for advanced urothelial cancer
This study tests a new drug called enfortumab vedotin for people whose advanced urothelial cancer (bladder or urinary tract cancer) has not responded to prior immunotherapy (checkpoint inhibitors) and platinum chemotherapy. The goal is to see how safe and effective this treatment is for Indian adults.
Patna, BiharAges 18 years+ - NCT05312671RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab plus chemo for small cell bladder cancer
This trial studies whether a drug called atezolizumab combined with chemotherapy (etoposide and a platinum drug) can shrink or control small cell bladder cancer. It may help by boosting the immune system against the cancer while the chemotherapy treats fast-growing cancer cells.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07233252RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab and chemotherapy for kidney pelvis cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) and a chemotherapy drug (nab-paclitaxel) to treat kidney pelvis cancer while trying to save as much kidney function as possible. It may be an option if you have a small tumor in the kidney pelvis and are scheduled for a laser procedure.
Tianjin, Outside U.S.Ages 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT04879329RecruitingPhase 2
Study for HER2-positive bladder cancer after limited treatment
This Phase 2 trial tests disitamab vedotin alone or with pembrolizumab for urothelial (bladder/urinary tract) cancer that has HER2-positive tumors. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes, including for people who have had limited prior treatment or specific prior drug exposures.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07225374RecruitingPhase 2
Avelumab after chemotherapy for upper tract urothelial cancer
This trial is for people with upper tract urothelial cancer who have already had surgery and chemotherapy (cisplatin-based). It tests whether continuing with a drug called avelumab (an immunotherapy) can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Seoul, GangnamAges 20 years+ - NCT07061964RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and radiation to save the bladder
This trial tests whether combining immunotherapy and low-dose radiation after chemotherapy can help you avoid bladder removal. It's for people whose muscle-invasive bladder cancer has shrunk significantly after initial treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03185468RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-T cell therapy for advanced bladder cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests CAR-T therapy—a treatment where immune cells are changed to better attack cancer—for bladder cancer that has spread or grown locally. It may help shrink tumors and control the disease by boosting a patient’s immune response.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT05239624RecruitingPhase 2
Enfortumab plus pembrolizumab for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This Phase 2 study tests how well two anti-cancer medicines—enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab—work for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes (but not distant organs). It may help shrink the cancer and improve treatment outcomes before or around planning major surgery.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05394337RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy before bladder surgery for cisplatin-ineligible patients
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs given before bladder/urinary tract cancer surgery. It aims to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes in people who cannot safely take cisplatin chemotherapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06991868Recruiting
Urine test to monitor for urothelial cancer recurrence
This study uses a urine test to detect small amounts of cancer DNA (microscopic residual disease) after treatment, to see if it can catch a recurrence earlier than standard scans or cystoscopy. It includes four groups of people with different types and stages of urothelial cancer (in the kidney, ureter, or bladder) to see how well the test works for each group.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 1.5 years+ - NCT07097142RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter radiation for bladder cancer with chemo
This trial tests if a shorter course of radiation therapy works as well as the usual longer course for people with bladder cancer who are also receiving standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if shorter treatment can reduce side effects while still being effective.
Fort Smith, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07218003Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Study of RNDO-564 alone or with pembrolizumab for bladder cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug, RNDO-564, either by itself or combined with another drug (pembrolizumab), for people with advanced bladder cancer or other solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
