About this study

Official title: Prospective Study of Bladder-Preservation Chemo-Radiotherapy (Partial Bladder Hypo-fractionated Radiotherapy) for Patients With Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer

This research trial studies quality of life after bladder-preservation chemotherapy and radiation therapy (chemo-radiotherapy) in patients with bladder cancer that has spread into or through the muscle layer of the bladder (muscle-invasive bladder cancer). Bladder-preservation chemo-radiotherapy is a standard treatment for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer, however, chemo-radiotherapy may cause urinary tract, bowel, and sexual late side effects that negatively affect patients' quality of life. Studying quality-of-life in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer after chemo-radiotherapy may help identify the long-term side effects of treatment and may help plan the best treatment in the future and improve patients' quality of life.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To study health-related quality of life (HRQoL, or QOL) for patients undergoing protocol-based bladder-preservation chemo-radiation.

OUTLINE:

Patients complete the European Organization for Research and Treatment for Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-Bladder Cancer Muscle Invasive (BLM-C30) at baseline, every 3 months for 1 year, every 4 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter after completion of chemo-radiotherapy.

Being tested
Quality-of-Life Assessment, Questionnaire Administration

What is being measured

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

  1. Establish QOL with validated tools for patients undergoing bladder-preservation chemo-radiation

    Validated Quality-of-Life questionnaires developed by the European Organization for Research and Treatment for Cancer (EORTC) will be used. The EORTC QLQ-BLM30 with 30 questions specific to muscle-invasive bladder cancer will be combined and used in conjunction with the general cancer questionnaire EORTC QLQ-C30 (Aaronson).

    Measured: From the date of study entry up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Quantify the rate of early and late grade 3 or higher GU or GI toxicity based on the CTCAE criteria

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  2. Overall survival

    Measured: From the date of study entry to the date of death, assessed up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Quality-of-Life Assessment and Questionnaire Administration in people with Infiltrating Bladder Urothelial Carcinoma, run by Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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 24 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Establish QOL with validated tools for patients undergoing bladder-preservation chemo-radiation (time frame: From the date of study entry up to 5 years). 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 24 Jul 2020.
