Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 45 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Primary urothelial cell carcinoma of the bladder
  • Patient's aged 45-85, both genders.
  • ECOG performance status < 1
  • Hematology: ANC > 1.5x109/L; Platelets > 100x109/L
  • Women with child bearing potential who are negative for pregnancy test (urine or blood) and who agree to use effective contraceptive method.

  • Either any of the following preoperative factors for increased risk of recurrence:
  • Lymphovascular invasion
  • Variant histology in the background of primary urothelial (notably plasmacytoid)
  • Clinical T3 or greater
  • Clinical N+
  • No prior neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) or lack of response to NAC
  • Or any of the following perioperative factors for increased risk of recurrence:
  • Palpable concern for extravesical disease
  • Tumor spillage/bladder entry
  • Suspicious nodes or positive intraoperative frozen sections

Who cannot join

  • Subjects who have previously undergone intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
  • Subjects with tumor histology other than urothelial cell carcinoma.
  • Patients on concurrent anti-cancer therapy other than that allowed in the study.
  • Other prior malignancies, except for cured non-melanoma skin cancer or curatively treated in situ carcinoma of the cervix or adequately treated malignancies for which there has been no evidence of activity for more than 3 years.
  • Subjects with renal insufficiency defined as creatinine > 1.5x the upper limit of normal or a calculated creatinine clearance of < 50 cc/min.
  • Subjects with a condition which may interfere with the subjects' ability to understand the requirements of the study.
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Known HIV, Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C positive.
  • Subjects with uncontrolled concurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or severe infection requiring antibiotics, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, acute gastrointestinal bleeding, psychiatric illness or other condition which in the opinion of the investigator, places the patient at an unacceptable risk for participation in the study.
  • Any condition that would preclude the ability to deliver appropriate IP therapy.

About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study for Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy After Radical Cystectomy With Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection for High Risk Invasive Bladder Cancer

This is a non-randomized, non-blinded, pilot study administering hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with Mitomycin-C in 10 men and women with muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder undergoing radical cystectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection who have risk factors for tumor recurrence.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HIPECProcedure or surgery

    Also called Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy

    40mg of Mitomycin-C dissolved in 100ml normal saline will be added into the perfusate and instilled into the patient for a total of 60 minutes. After 60 minutes, the abdomen will be irrigated with 3 liters of normal saline.

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment toxicity

    Treatment toxicity will be analyzed using NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events-Version 4.0. Descriptive statistics will be used to determine proportion of grade III/V treatment toxicity. Expected grade III/V toxicity in surgical patients without HIPEC would be 3 out of 10 patients. With the addition of HIPEC, there would be a significant difference (p=0.05) if 6 out of 10 patients experienced a grade III/V toxicity. Therefore, if less than 6 patients experience a grade III/V we would consider this a "negative" finding.

    Measured: 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HIPEC in people with Invasive Bladder Cancer, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell University 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 16 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2023. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Treatment toxicity (time frame: 90 days). 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 28 Aug 2023.
