NCT03374267

Brief Summary

The purpose of the project is to set up a national, prospective, longitudinal, multicenter cohort study with associated satellites, a tumor registry platform, to document uniform data on characteristics, molecular diagnostics, treatment and course of disease, to collect patient-reported outcomes and to establish a decentralized biobank for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma or urothelial cancer in Germany.

Study Arms (4)

aRCC

Patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma

Other: Routine care as per site standard.

aUBC

Patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma (locally advanced and inoperable, or metastatic)

Other: Routine care as per site standard.

High-risk MIUC

Patients with muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma classified as high-risk after radical surgery (ypT2-ypT4 and/or ypN+,M0 for patients with prior neoadjuvant chemotherapy; pT3-pT4 and/or pN+, M0 for patients without prior neoadjuvant chemotherapy)

Other: Routine care as per site standard.

MIBC

Patients with the diagnosis of MIBC (muscle-invasive bladder cancer; ICD-10 C67.x; cT2-T4aN0M0 or T1-T4aN1M0) and with histologically proven muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma; mMixed histologies are allowed (main component must be urothelial histology, with minor variants accepted).

Other: Routine care as per site standard.

Interventions

Physician's choice according to patient's needs.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Adult patients with locally advanced and inoperable, or metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (aRCC); locally advanced and inoperable, or metastatic Urothelial Cancer (including Bladder Cancer) (aUBC); High-risk Muscle-Invasive Urothelial Carcinoma (High-risk MIUC); or patients with Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC).

You may qualify if:

  • Cohorts aRCC and aUBC (prospective)
  • Female and male patients with aRCC or aUBC (locally advanced, inoperable or metastatic)
  • Patients at start of their first-line systemic treatment for aRCC or aUBC
  • Written informed consent
  • Patients participating in the PRO module: signing of in-formed consent form and completion of baseline questionnaire before start of initial systemic treatment
  • Patients not participating in the PRO module: within twelve weeks after start of systemic first-line for aRCC or aUBC
  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Cohort High-risk MIUC (prospective and retrospective)
  • Histologically proven muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma (MIUC) of the lower or upper urinary tract (ICD-10 C65, C66, C67.x, C68.x). Mixed histologies are allowed (main compo-nent must be urothelial carcinoma, with minor variants accept-ed).
  • Radical surgery (e.g., radical cystectomy, nephroureterecto-my) between October 1, 2021 and October 31, 2024.
  • High-risk of recurrence, defined as follows: Post-operative, pathological tumor status
  • ypT2-ypT4 and/or ypN+ and without clinically detectable metastases (M0) at cystectomy for patients with prior neo-adjuvant chemotherapy or
  • pT3-pT4 and/or pN+ and without clinically detectable me-tastases (M0) at cystectomy for patients without prior neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.
  • Age ≥ 18 years at the time of surgery.
  • Cohort MIBC (prospective)
  • +4 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Cohorts aRCC and aUBC (prospective)
  • Patients with prior systemic therapy for aRCC or aUBC
  • No systemic treatment for aRCC or aUBC
  • Cohort High-risk MIUC (prospective and retrospective)
  • Partial cystectomy or partial nephrectomy of the primary tumor as definitive therapy
  • Metastatic disease (M1) at the time of surgery
  • Cohort MIBC (prospective)
  • Clinically detectable metastases (M1) at the time of diagnosis.
  • Treatment in palliative intention (for tumors considered inoperable).
