Trial summary

Intravesical BCG immunotherapy is used after transurethral resection (TUR) for the prevention of recurrence of NMIBC. BCG treatment is usually started a few weeks after TUR and is given once a week for 6 weeks. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effect of a Complex Inflammatory Milieu Induced by BCG Treatment in Urines of Patients With Non-muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer on the Xpert® Bladder Cancer Assay

Intravesical BCG immunotherapy is used after transurethral resection (TUR) for the prevention of recurrence of NMIBC. BCG treatment is usually started a few weeks after TUR and is given once a week for 6 weeks. It stimulates immune responses that can destroy bladder cancer cells (acute and chronic induced inflammations) and as a consequence causes side effects. The investigators postulate that Xpert® test might be used to demonstrate the presence of residual (after TURB) or recurrent (during adjuvant treatment) disease at the time of intravesical treatment, which could be of very significant impact in the management of this complex situation.Urines of BCG treated patients are rich in immune system elements (cytokines, lymphocytes,…), this complex inflammatory milieu of urines may interfere with urinary biomarkers. This study will allow assessing the effect of the complex inflammatory milieu induced by BCG treatment in urines of patients with NMIBC on the Xpert® Bladder cancer assay.

Read the detailed description
  1. Qualification of Xpert® Testing: Three 50 mL fresh urine samples will be collected in sterile containers according to Cepheid instructions of use:
  • the "baseline sample" before the first BCG instillation,
  • the "study sample" taken during the initiation course of treatment instillations, preferably at the 4th or 5th instillation of BCG therapy,
  • the "follow-up sample" at the time of the first follow-up cystoscopy, approximately 3 months after the last BCG instillation of the initiation course. Xpert® test results will be qualified as positive or negative, according to Cepheid instructions for use. Samples tested positive at baseline will not be included in the analysis and the patient's participation in the study will be discontinued. Samples obtained in patients with no recurrence at follow-up cystoscopy after the initiation course will be considered for analysis.
  1. Threshold of detection of theXpert® Bladder test:
  • One urine sample of a patient tumor free (negative Xpert test) under BCG treatment will be spiked into 3 log dilutions of the 2 distinct tumor cell lines SW780 and BE(2)-C (100, 1000, and 10000 cells per ml).
  • A mix of fresh and frozen cells from en bloc harvested tumors from distinct donors will be tested at the set concentration in BCG urines from distinct patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of negative Xpert tests results during the initiation course in patients with no recurrence at first follow-up cystoscopy

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. rate of Xpert tests found positive in samples with predefined tumour cell concentrations ( limit of detection) in inflammatory milieu of urines induced by the BCG treatment in patients with bladder cancer

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Xpert bladder Test in people with Non Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer and Treatment by BCG, run by Institut Claudius Regaud at 1 site in France.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Sep 2016. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Philipppe ROCHAIX, MD (531156407 ext. 33, rochaix.philippe@iuct-onocpole.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of negative Xpert tests results during the initiation course in patients with no recurrence at first follow-up cystoscopy (time frame: 12 months). 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 Sep 2016.
