This trial tests whether a special immune-boosting drink taken before surgery can help people recover better after bladder removal (cystectomy). It compares the immune drink to a standard high-protein, high-calorie shake.
This trial tests a special antibacterial wash (chlorhexidine) applied to a piece of intestine used to create a new way for urine to leave the body after bladder removal. It aims to reduce infections and improve recovery.
This study tests a patient-centered coaching and preparation program before bladder surgery (cystectomy) to help you get ready for surgery and recovery. It may be especially helpful for people having urinary diversion using an ileal conduit or ileal neobladder.
This study looks at whether removing nearby lymph nodes during radical cystectomy (bladder removal) improves outcomes for people with high-risk non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It may help doctors choose the best surgical approach to reduce the chance of cancer coming back.
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (adebrelimab) with two chemotherapy drugs (etoposide and cisplatin) given before surgery for a rare, aggressive type of bladder cancer called neuroendocrine carcinoma. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
This trial tests if giving IV fluids at home after bladder removal surgery is safe and helpful. It aims to reduce dehydration and hospital visits after you go home.
