Active clinical trials for "Urinary Bladder Neoplasms"

This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients with advanced or metastatic cancer of the urinary tract. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Studying samples of blood, urine, and tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that may occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors learn how genistein or placebo works in patients with bladder cancer. This randomized phase II trial is studying genistein or placebo to compare how they work in patients who are undergoing surgery for bladder cancer.

This trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination chemotherapy (paclitaxel, carboplatin, and gemcitabine) prior to surgery in the treatment of patients with locally advanced transitional cell cancer of the bladder.

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and tolerability of an experimental drug, Chemophase, a combination of recombinant human hyaluronidase, (an investigational synthetic enzyme also known as rHuPH20), and mitomycin (MMC) in the treatment of superficial bladder cancer when instilled intravesically immediately after TURBT (transurethral resection of bladder tumor).

This phase II trial studies how well erlotinib hydrochloride works in Treating participants with muscle invasive urothelial cancer or urothelial cancer that has come back. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as erlotinib hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving gemcitabine directly into the bladder may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well gemcitabine works in treating patients with recurrent bladder cancer that has progressed despite previous Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG).

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining irinotecan and gemcitabine in treating patients who have unresectable or metastatic solid tumors.

RATIONALE: Suramin may stop the growth of bladder cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of suramin in treating patients who have recurrent bladder cancer.

RATIONALE: The LMB-9 immunotoxin may be able to locate tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. This may be an effective treatment for advanced solid tumors. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of LMB-9 immunotoxin in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard therapy.

This was a single-arm, multicenter, Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the anti- programmed cell death-1(PD-1) monoclonal antibody BGB-A317 in participants with PD-L1+, locally advanced or metastatic Urothelial Bladder Cancer (UBC) who have progressed during or following a platinum-containing regimen
