Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Renal Cell"

In this randomized, controlled trial the investigators evaluate the effects of an exercise program lasting for 12 weeks on the physical performance, the cardiovascular function (24h blood pressure, rest blood pressure and hear function) and the fatigue and mood of patients with renal cell carcinoma undergoing a therapy with Sunitinib.

Objectives: Apply 3D- printed biomodels in patients with renal cancer (RCa) and vascular involvement (VTT) to: (1) improve surgical planning, (2) upgrade surgical results, (3) facilitate communication with patients, (4) serve as a model for teaching residents and (5) shortening the learning curve in experienced urologists. Methodology: The design of the study is a randomized clinical trial, to determine the safety, precision, feasibility, predictability, efficacy and efficiency of a surgical strategy based on imaging tests and 3D models regarding the surgical planning in patients with RCa and VTT. This is a longitudinal, prospective, experimental and multicenter study on a cohort diagnosed of RCa and VTT from 2018 in the Virgen del Rocío University Hospital (HUVR) or in the Ramón y Cajal University Hospital (HURC). The study will last for 3 years and will be carried out jointly by the HUVR, the HURC and the IBIS, in a multidisciplinary team made up of urologists, radiologists and engineers.

Sunitinib is a chemotherapy approved by the FDA as a standard of care treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Fatigue is a very common side effect of sunitinib that frequently causes dose reductions. The cause of this fatigue remains unclear. This study will use a special type of scan to study sunitinib-induced fatigue in relation to exercise.

The purpose of the protocol is to assess the Overall Survival (OS) at 1 year in patients after cabozantinib initiation.

This is a post marketing surveillance which determines the safety profile of the product to Filipinos. This is a FDA requirement for registration.

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research study is looking at tumor tissue samples from patients who have undergone surgery for localized kidney cancer.

The objectives of the study is to describe axitinib therapy management through use of the data to be generated by ConcertAI

The objective of this Non-Interventional study is to evaluate the effectiveness & safety of Nexavar in advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) patients under daily-life treatment conditions based on age of the patient (older (age >70 years) and younger patients (age <70 years). Specifically investigated are the tumor status, duration of Nexavar ® treatment (number of cycles) and incidence of Hand foot Skin Reaction.

Purpose: The purpose of the correlative studies is to evaluate levels of serum factors of circulating VEGF and soluble VEGFR, circulating tumor cells and circulating endothelial cells assayed at baseline and over the course of initial treatment in order to explore relationships with baseline patient factors, measurable disease response and clinical progression. Hypothesis soluble markers of angiogenic growth factors and receptors, and circulating endothelial and tumor cells can serve as markers for biologic activity of temsirolimus and/or sorafenib.

The study will examine which differences there are in comorbidity and complications collected retrospectively from medical records compared with data collected prospectively in two groups of patients undergoing either radical cystectomy or radical nephrectomy. Hypothesis is that he prevalence of registered comorbidity and minor complications in patients who have undergone radical cystectomy or nephrectomy, will increase if the data collection is focused and prospective, compared with retrospectively collected data. The study will be conducted as a single-blind randomized controlled trial. Patients included in the study will be randomized to either control or intervention in the ratio 1:1. There are two groups of patients: Patients admitted to radical cystectomy and patients admitted to radical nephrectomy, due to cancer.
