About this study

Official title: Preventing Intravesical Recurrence in Patients With Urothelial Carcinoma of the Upper Urinary Tract: a Pilot Randomized Trial of a Single Prophylactic Bladder Instillation of Mitomycin C After Diagnostic Ureteroscopy

The objective of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a phase III randomized trial of intravesical mitomycin C (MMC) for prevention of intravesical recurrence (IVR) after diagnostic ureteroscopy for suspected upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). In the current study, 40 patients will be randomized to receive MMC or no intervention and will be followed for two years to determine the incidence of adverse events and IVR.

Being tested
Mitomycin C

What participants receive

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

  • Mitomycin CDrug

    Mitomycin (40 mg in 40 mL of sterile water) will be administered through a Foley catheter, which will be clamped for two hours.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recruitment rate

    Proportion of patients who consent to participate in the study after being invited to do so

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Randomization rate

    Proportion of consented patients who are deemed eligible to participate and are randomly allocated to one of the two arms

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Retention rate

    Proportion of randomized patients who complete follow-up

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Adverse events (any)

    Cumulative incidence of adverse events

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Adverse events (severe)

    Cumulative incidence of grade 3-5 adverse events

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Intravesical recurrence

    Cumulative incidence of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Mitomycin C in people with Urothelial Carcinoma Ureter and Urothelial Cancer of Renal Pelvis, run by McMaster University.

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 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 2023. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Piotr Zareba, MD MPH ((905) 521-2100 ext. 47109, zareba@hhsc.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recruitment rate (time frame: 30 days). 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 7 Aug 2023.
