1-Year Recurrence After En Bloc Resection for Large Bladder Tumors
This trial tests whether en bloc resection of bladder tumors larger than 2.5 cm can reduce recurrence compared with standard transurethral resection in adults with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
-
Feasibility of automatic, laser-based distance control in people with superficial bladder tumors
This study tests whether the ATLAS system’s distance sensor can accurately guide laser treatment for Ta low-grade bladder tumors in patients during a scheduled outpatient procedure.
-
NMIBC sample collection to test cancer monitoring biomarkers
This study tests a blood, urine, and tumor tissue collection approach in people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer to see if a molecular test can detect residual disease and monitor recurrence.
-
Intravesical UGN-501 for Recurrent NMIBC (Phase 1, dose-escalation)
This study tests whether UGN-501 can be safely given into the bladder to treat adults with recurrent non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
-
Shr-1501 plus BCG vs physician-chosen chemotherapy for BCG-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
This study tests whether SHR-1501 given with BCG works better than the doctor-selected chemotherapy for people with BCG-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
-
Disitamab Vedotin plus BCG vs BCG alone in HER2-expressing high-risk NMIBC
This study tests whether adding disitamab vedotin to BCG helps people with early, high-risk bladder cancer that hasn’t spread outside the bladder.
-
Monitoring recurrence of urothelial carcinoma using urinary tests
This study is testing if urine tests can help track the return of urothelial carcinoma in patients with different types of bladder and kidney cancer.
-
Immediate chemotherapy after bladder tumor removal for high-risk patients
This study tests if giving immediate chemotherapy after bladder tumor removal can help high-risk patients avoid cancer recurrence.
-
Intravesical recombinant BCG for non‑muscle invasive bladder cancer
This trial tests a recombinant form of BCG given directly into the bladder to see if it is safe and helps prevent recurrence in adults with BCG‑naïve NMIBC (CIS or Ta/T1).
-
Bladder-sparing treatment for large non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This study is testing new bladder-sparing treatments for people with large non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer to see if they can improve outcomes while keeping the bladder intact.
-
Treatment for high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This study is testing a new treatment combining RC48-ADC and gemcitabine for people with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer who haven't had BCG treatment or didn't respond to it.
NIH-funded research (3)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Calm Bladder: Acupuncture to ease urinary symptoms during NMIBC treatment
A multicenter trial will test whether weekly acupuncture before bladder cancer therapy helps reduce urinary symptoms and improve quality of life for adults with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
-
Improving treatment choices for recurrent bladder cancer
This project helps patients with recurrent bladder cancer and their doctors make better decisions about whether to remove the bladder or try other treatments.
-
Comparing bladder-sparing therapies and surgery for recurrent bladder cancer
This study is looking at different treatment options for people with recurring non-muscle invasive bladder cancer to help them and their doctors make better choices about whether to try bladder-sparing therapies or go for surgery, all with the goal of improving their health and quality of life.
