A Study of Vepugratinib (LY3866288) in Participants With Cancer in the Urinary Tract

The purpose of this study is to test a new medicine, vepugratinib, in comparison with placebo, to see if it is safe and can help people with a bladder cancer that is advanced or has spread. Vepugratinib or placebo will be administered in combination with enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab. Study participation could last up to approximately 6 years.

A Study of Sigvotatug Vedotin in Advanced Solid Tumors

This trial will look at a drug called sigvotatug vedotin (SGN-B6A) alone and with pembrolizumab, with or without chemotherapy, to find out whether it is safe for people who have solid tumors. It will study sigvotatug vedotin to find out what its side effects are. A side effect is anything the drug does besides treating cancer. It will also study whether sigvotatug vedotin works to treat solid tumors. The study will have four parts. * Part A of the study will find out how much sigvotatug vedotin should be given to participants. * Part B will use the dose found in Part A to find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is and if it works to treat solid tumors. * Part C of the study will find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is in combination with these other drugs. * Part D will include people who have not received treatment. This part of the study will find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is in combination with these other drugs and if these combinations work to treat solid tumors. * In Parts C and D, participants will receive sigvotatug vedotin with either: * Pembrolizumab or, * Pembrolizumab and carboplatin, or * Pembrolizumab and cisplatin.

A Clinical Study of Intismeran Autogene (V940) and BCG in People With Bladder Cancer (V940-011/INTerpath-011)

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HR NMIBC). NMIBC is cancer in the tissue that lines the inside of the bladder but has not spread to the bladder muscle or outside of the bladder. High-risk means NMIBC may have a high chance of getting worse or coming back after treatment. HR NMIBC can also include carcinoma in situ (CIS). CIS is bladder cancer that appears flat and is only in the inner layer (surface) of the bladder. CIS is not raised and is not growing toward the center of the bladder. The standard treatment for HR NMIBC is a procedure to remove the tumor called transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) followed by Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG). Standard treatment is something that is considered the first line of treatment for a condition. BCG is an immunotherapy, which is a treatment that helps the immune system fight cancer. However, BCG may not work to treat HR NMIBC in some people. Researchers want to learn if adding intismeran autogene, the study treatment, to standard treatment can help treat HR NMIBC. Intismeran autogene is designed to help a person's immune system attack their specific cancer. The goal of this study are to learn if people who receive V940 with BCG live longer and without the cancer growing, spreading, or coming back compared to people who receive BCG alone.

Enfortumab Vedotin in Combination With Pembrolizumab vs. Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) in People With Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (EV-309)

This study is being done to see how well two drugs (enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab) work together as a bladder preservation approach to treat patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer. The study will compare these drugs to concurrent chemoradiotherapy that is usually used to treat this cancer (standard of care). The study will enroll patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who have cancer that has not spread outside the bladder.

Expanded Access for Vepugratinib (LY3866288) in Participants With Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 3 (FGFR3) Altered Solid Tumors

A Study of TAR-200 in Combination With Cetrelimab and Cetrelimab Alone in Participants With Muscle-Invasive Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-tumor effects of TAR-200 in combination with intravenous (IV) cetrelimab and IV cetrelimab alone.

A Clinical Study of MK-3120 in People With Bladder Cancer (MK-3120-003)

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HR NMIBC). NMIBC is cancer in the tissue that lines the inside of the bladder and has not spread to the bladder muscle or outside of the bladder. In standard treatment for HR NMIBC, doctors first remove the tumor with a procedure called transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT). Researchers want to learn if using MK-3120, the study medicine, can treat HR NMIBC after TURBT. The goal of this study is to learn about the safety of MK-3120 and if people tolerate it.

FORAGER-1: A Study of LOXO-435 (LY3866288) in Participants With Cancer With a Change in a Gene Called FGFR3

The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of LOXO-435 by itself or when it is combined with other standard medicines that treat cancer. LOXO-435 may be used to treat cancer of the cells that line the urinary system and other solid tumor cancers that have a change in a particular gene (known as the FGFR3 gene). Participation could last up to 30 months (2.5 years) and possibly longer if the disease does not get worse.

Durvalumab and Vicineum in Subjects With High-Grade Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer Previously Treated With Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG)

Background: Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer is in the early stages. But it usually comes back after treatment. The drugs Vicineum and Durvalumab may help the immune system find and destroy cancer cells. Objective: To test if the drugs Durvalumab and Vicineum together are safe and effective to treat people with bladder cancer that has not spread to the muscle in the bladder. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who have bladder cancer that has not spread to the muscle in the bladder and was treated unsuccessfully with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests Tumor sample from previous surgery. If one is not available, they will have a biopsy: A small piece of tumor is removed. Cystoscopy to examine the inside of the bladder. This may include a biopsy or removing tumors. Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): They lie in a machine that takes pictures of the body. Electrocardiogram to test heart function Participants will receive Durvalumab and Vicineum in 2 phases: First phase: Durvalumab every 4 weeks and Vicineum once a week for 3 months Second phase: Durvalumab every 4 weeks and Vicineum once every other week Participants will have tumor samples taken every 3 months. They will have blood and urine tests throughout the study. Participants will continue treatment for up to 2 years. Participants will have a visit about 30 days after their last treatment. This includes blood and urine tests. It may include a cytoscopy or additional biopsies.

Perioperative Durvalumab With Neoadjuvant ddMVAC or Gemcitabine/Cisplatin in Patients With Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer (NIAGARA-2)

The Phase IIIb NIAGARA-2 study aims to expand on the data from the Phase III NIAGARA study by investigating perioperative durvalumab in combination with investigator-selected cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (either ddMVAC or gemcitabine/cisplatin) in a clinical practice setting.

A Study of TAR-200 in Combination With Cetrelimab, TAR-200 Alone, or Cetrelimab Alone in Participants With Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) Unresponsive to Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin Who Are Ineligible for or Elected Not to Undergo Radical Cystectomy

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the overall complete response (CR) rate in participants treated with TAR-200 in combination with cetrelimab (Cohort 1), or TAR-200 alone (Cohort 2), or cetrelimab alone (Cohort 3) with Carcinoma in Situ (CIS), with or without concomitant high-grade Ta or T1 papillary disease; and disease-free survival (DFS) in participants treated with TAR-200 alone with papillary disease only (Cohort 4).

HOPE-07-MIBC: Disitamab Vedotin Plus Immunotherapy vs Chemoimmunotherapy in Resectable HER2-Expressing MIBC

This is a multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial (HOPE-07) designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of perioperative treatment with disitamab vedotin (RC48) combined with toripalimab compared with toripalimab combined with chemotherapy in patients with resectable HER2-expressing (HER2 1+, 2+, or 3+) muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC, cT2-4aN0/1M0).A total of 240 patients will be enrolled and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either RC48 plus toripalimab or chemotherapy plus toripalimab, with 120 patients in each arm. The primary objective is to compare 2-year event-free survival (2-year EFS) between the two treatment groups. Secondary endpoints include pathological complete response (pCR), event-free survival (EFS), disease-free survival (DFS), 1-year event-free survival (1-year EFS), metastasis-free survival (MFS), overall survival (OS), R0 resection rate, and safety outcomes including adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), vital signs, physical examination, ECOG performance status, laboratory tests, and electrocardiography, assessed according to CTCAE v5.0. Exploratory objectives include assessment of quality of life using EQ-5D-5L and EORTC QLQ-C30, evaluation of associations between biomarkers (HER2 expression, PD-L1 expression, circulating tumor DNA) and treatment efficacy, and multi-omics analyses using tumor tissue, ctDNA, and urinary tumor DNA to identify potential predictive biomarkers.

A Study of Durvalumab Alone and Durvalumab+Olaparib in Advanced, Platinum-Ineligible Bladder Cancer (BAYOU)

Hyperthermic Intravesical Chemotherapy (HIVEC) in BCG-Non-Responsive High-Grade NMIBC Patients

This is a Phase II, prospective, single-arm, open-label clinical study evaluating hyperthermic intravesical chemotherapy (HIVEC) with Mitomycin C in patients with high-grade, non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who are BCG-non-responsive or BCG-intolerant and are ineligible for, or refuse, radical cystectomy. Mitomycin C is an approved medicinal product used within routine clinical practice and administered with a CE-marked recirculation device (BRS Combat system) that maintains the solution at approximately 43°C for 60 minutes. The treatment schedule consists of 6 weekly induction instillations followed by 9 monthly maintenance instillations. The co-primary objectives are to describe the safety and toxicity profile of HIVEC, including treatment discontinuations due to procedure-related toxicity, and to estimate the 12-month recurrence-free survival (12moRFS). Secondary objectives include characterizing patterns of non-muscle-invasive and muscle-invasive recurrences, bladder cancer-specific survival, overall survival, and quality of life. Approximately 50 patients will be enrolled in this single-center pilot study to generate exploratory safety and efficacy data in this high-risk population and to support the design of future randomized trials

Comparing 3 vs 6 Cycles of Platinum-based Chemotherapy Prior to Maintenance Avelumab in Advanced Urothelial Cancer

This is an adaptive, open-label, randomised phase II trial that aims to evaluate the impact of 3 vs 6 cycles of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy followed by maintenance avelumab in the quality of life of patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer. Initially, 224 eligible and evaluable patients (112 in each arm) will receive 3 cycles vs 6 cycles of 3-weekly gemcitabine plus cisplatin/carboplatin, followed by 2-weekly maintenance avelumab until disease progression or intolerable toxicities. Avelumab treatment will be given up to a maximum of 2 years from the end of chemotherapy.

Efficacy and Safety of Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in Combination With Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) Versus CRT Alone in Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC) (MK-3475-992/KEYNOTE-992)

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). MIBC is a type of cancer that has not spread from the muscles in the bladder to other parts of the body. MIBC is treated by having surgery to remove the bladder (cystectomy). Not all people choose to have surgery and want to keep their bladder using other treatments. Chemoradiotherapy (CRT)- is a type of non-surgical treatment for MIBC which combines Chemotherapy (a treatment with medicine to destroy cancer cells or stop them growing) and Radiation therapy (a treatment that uses beams of intense energy \[like X-rays\] to shrink or get rid of tumors). Pembrolizumab is an immunotherapy, which is a treatment that helps the immune system fight cancer. A placebo looks like the study medicine but has no study medicine in it. Using a placebo helps researchers better understand if the study medicine works. The goal of this study is to learn: 1. If a study medicine pembrolizumab given with Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) can help people live longer without their cancer growing, spreading, or coming back compared to placebo given with CRT. 2. About the safety and how well people tolerate CRT alone or in combination with pembrolizumab.

A Study to Compare Chemotherapy Alone Versus Chemotherapy Plus Nivolumab or Nivolumab and BMS-986205, Followed by Continued Therapy After Surgery With Nivolumab or Nivolumab and BMS-986205 in Participants With Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

The purpose of this study is to compare nivolumab plus neoadjuvant gemcitabine/cisplatin (GC) chemotherapy, followed by post-surgery continuation of immuno-oncology (IO) therapy, with neoadjuvant GC chemotherapy alone in adult participants with previously untreated muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).

Impact Advanced Recovery® for Radical Cystectomy (RC) Patients: a Pilot Study

The purpose of this study is determine if using Impact Advanced Recovery® before and after RC surgery helps reduce surgical complications.

BladMetrix Urine Test for Monitoring Recurrence in Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

This observational study evaluates the urine test BladMetrix for monitoring bladder cancer recurrences in people with non muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who are in follow-up after surgery. The main goal is to evaluate the potential clinical utility of the BladMetrix test by comparing its performance with current follow-up methods, cystoscopy (looking into the bladder with a camera) and urine cytology (examining cells in the urine), using confirmed pathological histology as the reference standard for recurrence (return of disease). Participants will be adults with NMIBC and a positive BladMetrix urine test at the time of their bladder tumor surgery (transurethral resection). After surgery, they will continue their usual follow-up at their local hospital according to national guidelines, including regular cystoscopies and urine cytology. At each planned follow-up visit over about 2 years, they will provide an extra urine sample for BladMetrix testing in addition to their routine examinations. By comparing BladMetrix results with cystoscopy, urine cytology, and histology from any biopsies or tissue from surgery, we will estimate diagnostic accuracy measures such as sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value for detecting bladder cancer recurrence. The goal is to see whether the BladMetrix urine test could safely replace parts of the cystoscopies, help clarify uncertain cystoscopy findings, and support more individualized follow-up schedules for people living with NMIBC.

Early vs Delayed Intravesical Blad-Care During BCG Therapy

Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy is the standard adjuvant treatment for patients with intermediate- and high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). However, BCG therapy frequently induces local bladder irritation symptoms including urinary frequency, urgency, dysuria, hematuria, and suprapubic pain, which may reduce quality of life and lead to treatment interruption. Blad-Care™ is an intravesical therapy containing hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate, key components of the urothelial glycosaminoglycan (GAG) layer. Restoration of the GAG layer may protect the bladder mucosa and reduce inflammation-induced bladder irritation symptoms. This prospective randomized study aims to determine whether early administration of intravesical Blad-Care during BCG induction improves BCG-induced bladder toxicity compared with delayed administration after completion of BCG induction therapy.

Lymphedema After Urologic Surgery

Lymphedema of the extremities is common after lymph node surgery in treating several forms of cancer, e.g., breast cancer. However, very little is known of the occurrence of lymphedema of the lower extremities after urologic surgery with lymph node dissection. This project aims to describe the frequency and grade of lymphedema arising after urologic surgery, using the Lymphedema Quality of Life Questionnaire (LymQOL), Delfin MoistureMeter D, and lower limb volume measurements.
