AlbiAges 18 years+ - NCT07036731Recruiting
Urine test study for second bladder surgery
This trial compares the need for a second surgery for people with early-stage bladder cancer. It uses a simple urine test to see if the test can help decide whether a second operation is necessary, which could save some patients from an extra procedure.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07051083Recruiting
Bladder cancer staging trial using AI on imaging scans
This trial uses artificial intelligence to look at ultrasound and other scans to better stage bladder cancer and predict if chemotherapy before surgery might work. It may help doctors plan your treatment more precisely.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT07129993RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of datopotamab deruxtecan with chemo for advanced bladder cancer
This trial is testing a new drug combination for advanced bladder cancer that has grown despite previous treatment. It pairs a targeted therapy (datopotamab deruxtecan) with chemotherapy, and the goal is to see if it can slow down or stop the cancer better than standard chemo alone.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07721935Recruiting
AI tool for urological disease diagnosis and treatment
This trial is testing an artificial intelligence (AI) system that helps doctors diagnose and treat urological conditions like urinary stones, prostate cancer, or bladder cancer. It looks at your medical records, scans, and surgical videos to improve care.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT05649306Recruiting
Surveys for coping and sexual health in bladder cancer survivors
This study asks women with bladder cancer to complete questionnaires about how they cope emotionally and about sexual health. It may help researchers understand what support survivors need and improve survivorship care.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06528990RecruitingPhase 2
Telehealth help for ostomy self-care
This study tests a telehealth program to help you manage your ostomy after surgery. If you have bladder or colorectal cancer and are getting an ostomy, you and a caregiver can learn skills to handle your new stoma from home using video calls.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07514143Recruiting
Bladder Cancer Detection Study Using Urine Test
This study tests a new urine-based test called EpiCheck to help detect bladder cancer. You'll provide urine samples before or during a bladder procedure you're already scheduled to have, and researchers will see how well the test works.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT06809140RecruitingPhase 2
Bladder-sparing treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab, to treat bladder cancer that has grown into the muscle of the bladder. The goal is to shrink or eliminate the cancer so that surgery to remove the bladder may not be needed.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06421142Recruiting
FAPI and FDG scans for bladder cancer
This trial is testing if two types of PET/MRI scans (one using FAPI tracer, another using FDG tracer) are better at finding and evaluating muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It may help doctors decide the best treatment for you.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT06441110RecruitingPhase 3
BCG instillation for medium- to high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests whether a specific schedule of BCG (a weakened germ that boosts the immune system) placed directly into the bladder is safe and effective for medium- to high-risk bladder cancer that hasn't grown into the muscle. It aims to see if adjusting the standard BCG course can work better for people with a PD-L1-positive tumor.
