This is a VA study only and will not be put on the SC Research web page.
This study is for subjects with bladder cancer after being treated with BCG and the cancer is currently considered high risk, but not yet reached the bladder muscle. This study is for people who do not qualify for additional BCG treatment or do not want to have their bladder removed. The next line of medication for standard of care treatments with this population are instillations into the bladder with drugs called mitomycin-C or gemcitabine. This study will use a drug delivery system called TAR-200 that slowly releases gemcitabine over 3 weeks. This will be compared to subjects who receive standard of care instillations. Subjects will be randomly assigned (flip of a coin) to either receive standard of care therapy or the study device. The treatment phase will last up to 2 years and the overall study will last up to 5 years.
This research study primarily aims to determine if BT8009 alone and when given in combination with pembrolizumab works against urothelial cancer for patients who previously received treatment for their locally advanced or metastatic cancer.
This research study also aims to understand the side effects of BT8009 when given alone and in combination with pembrolizumab.
The study drug BT8009 is investigational (i.e., experimental). An investigational drug is one that has not been approved by the Regulatory Authority to treat a certain condition or illness or a certain type of patient.
The purpose of this research study is to see how effective the use of copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T Injection is in imaging prostate cancer tumors for staging of men with newly diagnosed intermediate or high risk prostate cancer who are planned to have radical prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection. Three hundred twenty-three (323) patients are planned for enrollment in this Phase 3 study, at approximately 60 sites in the U.S. and Europe. Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T Injection is an investigational imaging agent, given to you via IV injection, that may make tumors from prostate cancer show up better during a nuclear medicine imaging scan. The imaging scan is a type of nuclear medicine imaging test, which means it uses a radioactive drug and a special camera to create pictures of your tumor(s). Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T Injection is investigational in the United States which means that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not yet approved it.
The purpose of this research is to determine whether bladder cancer monitoring can be improved by replacing some cystoscopy procedures with investigational urine testing. Specifically, we are examining whether there are any differences in urinary symptoms, discomfort, number of invasive procedures, anxiety, complications, cancer recurrence or cancer progression when some cystoscopy procedures are replaced with urine testing.
The study is for patients that have been diagnosed with carcinoma in situ of the bladder (localized bladder cancer, also called "non-muscle invasive bladder cancer") with or without Ta-T1 papillary disease (Ta means that the cancer is only in the innermost layer of the bladder lining, T1 means that the cancer has started to grow into the connective tissue beneath the bladder lining). The investigational drug used in this study is ONCOFID-P-B. The main purpose of this study is to understand if the study medicine ONCOFID-P-B is effective and safe in treating patients with carcinoma in situ of the bladder who have not received benefit from the standard BCG treatment and are not candidates for radical cystectomy. Participants can expect to be in this study for up to 4 years and will include a screening period of up to 4 weeks followed by up to 33 study visits to the study site.
The goal of this study is to develop a biorepository to store pediatric biospecimens from nephrology cohorts for on-going and future research studies. These studies plan to advance the state of science in the hopes to find more information that potentially leads to developing novel diagnostic approaches and identify therapeutic targets to prevent and/or treat pediatric disease involving the kidneys.
This study is for patients with bladder cancer. The study is being done to see if by using one type of chemotherapy instilled in the bladder, Gemcitabine and Docetaxel, instead of the usual BCG therapy can lower the chance of the patient's bladder cancer from growing or spreading.

This study will collect prospective data on clinical indications, outcomes, and adverse events related to Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE) at the Medical University of South Carolina. Patients undergoing surgical treatment for benign prostatic obstruction causing LUTS will also be allowed to enroll in this registry for the purposes of comparison. Patients will be followed at 1, 3, and 12 months post-procedure, for a period of up to 5 years. Patients will remain enrolled in the registry for a period of 5 years.
