About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Comparison of Intracorporeal Versus Extracorporeal Urinary Diversion During Robotic Radical Cystectomy

This randomized clinical trial studies intracorporeal or extracorporeal urinary diversion during robotic assisted radical cystectomy in reducing complications in patients with bladder cancer. Radical cystectomy is surgery to remove the entire bladder as well as nearby tissues and organs. After the bladder is removed, urinary diversion (a surgical procedure to make a new way for urine to leave the body) is performed. It is not yet known whether intracorporeal (within the body) or extracorporeal (outside of the body) urinary diversion is a better method in patients with bladder cancer undergoing robotic assisted radical cystectomy.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To compare perioperative outcomes and complications after robotic assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion (IUD) and RARC with extracorporeal urinary diversion (EUD) in a prospective randomized fashion.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Time to passage of flatus. II. Analgesic requirement (narcotic use). III. Hospital length of stay. IV. Total operating time. V. Estimated blood loss. VI. Readmission rate. VII. Bladder Cancer Index Questionnaire. VIII. Ureteral strictures. IX. Stomal stenosis. X. Disease recurrence. XI. Secondary procedures.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM I: Patients undergo RARC with IUD.

ARM II: Patients undergo RARC with EUD.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up within 90 days and then for 2-5 years.

Being tested
robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery, intraoperative complication management/prevention, quality-of-life assessment

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Complication rate

    Analyzed using multivariable logistical regression. Descriptions and grading scales found in the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 will be utilized for adverse event reporting.

    Measured: 90 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Time to passage of flatus

    Analyzed using regression analysis.

    Measured: Up to 90 days

  2. Analgesic requirement (narcotic use)

    Analyzed using logistical regression.

    Measured: Up to 90 days

  3. Hospital length of stay

    Analyzed using regression analysis.

    Measured: Up to 90 days

  4. Total operating time

    Analyzed using regression analysis.

    Measured: Up to completion of surgery

  5. Estimated blood loss

    Analyzed using regression analysis.

    Measured: Up to 90 days

  6. Readmission rate

    Analyzed using regression analysis.

    Measured: Up to 90 days

  7. Quality of life assessed using the Bladder Cancer Index Questionnaire

    The Cox proportional hazards model will be used. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) associated with the use of RARC with IUD compared with the use of RARC with EUD will be calculated.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  8. Ureteral strictures

    The Cox proportional hazards model will be used. The HR and 95% CI associated with the use of RARC with IUD compared with the use of RARC with EUD will be calculated.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  9. Stromal stenosis

    The Cox proportional hazards model will be used. The HR and 95% CI associated with the use of RARC with IUD compared with the use of RARC with EUD will be calculated.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  10. Disease recurrence

    The Cox proportional hazards model will be used. The HR and 95% CI associated with the use of RARC with IUD compared with the use of RARC with EUD will be calculated.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  11. Secondary procedures

    The Cox proportional hazards model will be used. The HR and 95% CI associated with the use of RARC with IUD compared with the use of RARC with EUD will be calculated.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  12. Cumulative complication incidence

    Graphically described using the Kaplan-Meier method. Descriptions and grading scales found in the NCI CTCAE version 4.0 will be utilized for adverse event reporting.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery, intraoperative complication management/prevention and quality-of-life assessment in people with Recurrent Bladder Cancer and Stage 0 Bladder Cancer, run by Case Comprehensive Cancer Center.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complication rate (time frame: 90 days after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Nov 2016.
