About this study

Official title: Effect of a Single Instillation of Mitomycin C on the Intravesical Recurrence Rate After Ureteroscopy for Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma: A Prospective, Multicenter Study

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the intravesical recurrence (IVR) rate after ureteroscopy (diagnostic or treatment) for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) followed by an adjuvant single instillation of Mitomycin C (SI-MMC).

The main question it aims to answer are:

  • What is the total and time to IVR after 2 years after ureteroscopy (diagnostic or treatment) for UTUC
  • How is the IVR compared with a historical cohort (no SI-MMC)
  • What is the time to IVR after 2 years in patients who subsequently received treatment by endoscopy vs. radical nephroureterectomy (RNU)
  • What is the additional value of a SI-MMC on time to IVR after RNU + adjuvant MMC in patients who were evaluated by ureteroscopy prior to RNU
Read the detailed description

The primary objective is to evaluate the IVR rate after ureteroscopy (diagnostic or treatment) followed by an single instillation of MMC (SI-MMC), in patients with clinically non-metastatic UTUC.

The main question we aim to answer are:

  • What is the total and time to IVR after 2 years after ureteroscopy (diagnostic or treatment) for UTUC
  • How is the IVR compared with a historical cohort (no SI-MMC)
  • What is the time to IVR after 2 years in patients who subsequently received treatment by endoscopy vs. radical nephroureterectomy
  • What is the additional value of a SI-MMC on time to IVR after RNU + adjuvant MMC in patients who were evaluated by ureteroscopy prior to RNU.

Secondary objectives include the evaluation of possible predictive factors for IVR rate.

Study design: Multicentre, prospective cohort study in a clinical setting,

Study population: All adult patients (age ≥18 years) with a (suspicion of a) urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract undergoing ureteroscopy, either diagnostic or as endoscopic kidney sparing treatment, followed by a post-operative single instillation of Mitomycin C.

Intervention: No intervention

Main study parameters/endpoints:

The primary endpoint of this study is the time to and total intravesical recurrences (histological proven) in the first 24 months following ureteroscopy (diagnostic or treatment) for UTUC followed a single instillation of Mitomycin C.

Secondary Objective(s): to evaluate possible predictive factors for IVR rate looking at gender, tumour size, tumour focality, tumour location, postoperative stent placement, use of an ureteral access sheath, timing of administration of MMC, the performance of an endoscopic biopsy during ureteroscopy.

Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Investigations during follow-up include cystoscopy, ureteroscopy and CT-urography, which is in line with the standardized care and will not include additional investigations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to and total number of Intravesical recurrences (IVR)

    What is the time to and total number of IVR 2 years after ureteroscopy (diagnostic or treatment) with SI-MMC for UTUC

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Time to and total number of IVR after endoscopic vs radical treatment

    What is the time to and total number of IVR after 2 years in patients who subsequently received treatment by endoscopy vs. radical nephroureterectomy

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Time to and total IVR after diagnostic ureteroscopy in patients who received final treatment by RNU

    Is there an additional value of SI-MMC on total and time to IVR after RNU in patients who were evaluated by ureteroscopy prior to RNU. Outcome measurement (time to IVR and total IVR) will be compared to a historical cohort who did not receive Mitomycin C to evaluate the additional effect

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. predictive factors for IVR

    to evaluate possible predictive factors for IVR rate looking different variables by multivariate logistic regression; with the dependent variable IVR and independent variables: gender (male/ female), tumour size (< 2cm/ >2cm), tumour focality (unifocal/ multifocal), tumour invasiveness (invasive/ non-invasive), tumour location (ureter/ puelocaliceal), use of Urethral access sheath (yes/no), use of postoperative stent (yes/ no), timing of MMC administartion (<24h/>24h)

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Upper Urinary Tract Carcinoma, run by Academisch Medisch Centrum - Universiteit van Amsterdam (AMC-UvA) at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 3 inclusion and 6 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 31 Jan 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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 Joyce Baard, MD, MSc (+31 020 444 0261, j.baard@amsterdamumc.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to and total number of Intravesical recurrences (IVR) (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 31 Jan 2024.
