The purpose of this study is to identify characteristics of financial toxicity unique to advanced prostate cancer, especially those areas not assessed through current objective measures, and describe how can these areas inform potential interventions to ameliorate financial toxicity.

This aim will be accomplished through qualitative focus group study of advanced prostate cancer patients who exhibit both extremes of financial toxicity. Findings will be presented in a joint display with quantitative survey data obtained in a prior study.

The purpose of this study is to collect data on the early use of ADSTILADRIN. Data will be collected from participants, caregivers and prescribing physicians in a real-world setting.

This Phase 2 study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of INSTILADRIN (rAd-IFN with Syn3) when given intravesically to patients with high grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer who are refractory to or have relapsed from BCG therapy. The pharmacodynamics of INSTILADRIN will also be studied by measuring the interferon (IFNα2b) levels excreted in the urine. rAd-IFN is a non-replicating recombinant adenovirus type 5 (Ad5)-vector encoding the interferon alpha-2b (IFNα2b) gene. Syn 3 is clinical surfactant excipient which enhances the ability of the adenoviral vector to transfect cells in the bladder wall.

The purpose of this research study is to see if oral everolimus is a tolerable and effective treatment for sporadic angiomyolipomas tumors of the kidney.

RATIONALE: Lymphadenectomy may remove tumor cells that have spread to nearby lymph nodes in patients with invasive bladder cancer. It is not yet known whether extended pelvic lymphadenectomy is more effective than standard pelvic lymphadenectomy during surgery.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying standard pelvic lymphadenectomy to see how well it works compared to extended pelvic lymphadenectomy in treating patients undergoing surgery for invasive bladder cancer.

Previous multi-dose Phase I and Phase II clinical studies have demonstrated that Instiladrin nadofaragene firadenovec is a safe and effective treatment for BCG-refractory and recurrent NMIBC. This Phase III study is designed to expand those observations using a high dose of Instiladrin in patients that are "BCG Unresponsive" which refers to patients with high grade NMIBC who are unlikely to benefit from and should not receive further intravesical BCG.

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a single intraoperative intravesical instillation of gemcitabine at time of radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) to prevent intravesical recurrence of urothelial carcinoma (UC) at 1 year in patients with clinically localized upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).

This trial is a randomized study comparing effectiveness, morbidity, and cost of observation versus immediate surgery for low grade, noninvasive bladder cancer.

This project will develop and evaluate a patient-reported symptom index to assess the impact of treatment for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer on patient burden, toxicity, symptoms and side effects. The symptom index will provide a method for assessing treatments from the patient's perspective; help healthcare professionals make better informed treatment decisions, and provide a method to be able to effectively evaluate treatments for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

The primary purpose of this study is to characterize pre-operative sexual function and interest in sexual activity of women undergoing radical cystectomy.
