Renal pelvis urothelial carcinoma
MONDO:0005221A carcinoma that arises from the transitional epithelium of the renal pelvis. It is associated with tobacco use and usually presents with gross or microscopic hematuria. Urothelial carcinomas of the renal pelvis are usually of higher grade and higher stage compared to bladder urothelial carcinomas.
Also known as: kidney renal pelvis urothelial cancer, renal pelvis transitional cell carcinoma, renal pelvis urothelial cancer, renal pelvis urothelial carcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma of renal pelvis, transitional cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis, urothelial cell carcinoma of renal pelvis, urothelial cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis

New drug cocktail targets Hard-to-Treat bladder cancer
Disease control OngoingThis early-phase trial is testing a combination of two drugs—erdafitinib and enfortumab vedotin—in 24 people with advanced bladder cancer that has spread and has specific FGFR2/3 gene changes. Erdafitinib blocks a faulty protein that helps cancer grow, while enfortumab vedotin de…

Tiny study tests radiation boost to immunotherapy in Hard-to-Treat cancers
Disease control OngoingThis pilot study tested whether adding low-dose radiation (brachytherapy) to standard immunotherapy could help shrink tumors in people with advanced melanoma, kidney cancer, or urothelial cancer. Only 5 participants were enrolled, and the main goal was to see how many responded t…

Can a gene test tell who responds to immunotherapy for bladder cancer?
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis small phase II trial is studying whether specific gene mutations (ARID1A and KDM6A) and a protein called CXCL13 can predict how well patients with advanced bladder cancer respond to the immunotherapy drug nivolumab. Six participants with metastatic urothelial cancer whose tu…
