Real-world use of TAR-200 for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
This study looks at how patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer are using TAR-200 in everyday medical care. It aims to understand treatment patterns and outcomes outside of a clinical trial.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07296705RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo to save the bladder in HER2-positive bladder cancer
This trial tests combining two newer drugs (zanidatamab and tislelizumab) with standard chemotherapy before bladder surgery. The goal is to shrink the tumor so the bladder can be saved instead of removed.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–85 - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07319923Recruiting
AI early warning system for prostate and bladder cancer in Beijing men
This trial is testing an AI-based early warning system to find prostate and bladder cancer earlier. It is for men over 50 living in Beijing who are willing to take part in the screening and follow-up process.
BeijingAges 18–85 - NCT04724018RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Enfortumab and sacituzumab for metastatic bladder cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether combining sacituzumab govitecan with enfortumab vedotin (and in one group, pembrolizumab) can shrink or control metastatic urothelial (bladder/urinary tract) cancer. It’s mainly for people whose cancer has grown despite prior treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06787053Recruiting
MRI imaging for oxygen-starved tumors
This study uses MRI scans to find areas of low oxygen in tumors and see if adjusting radiation treatment can help. It is open to adults with bladder, cervix, or prostate cancer who are getting radiation therapy at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust.
ManchesterAges 18 years+ - NCT07307456RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab and BCG for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of two treatments after bladder tumor surgery: a drug called toripalimab (given through a vein) plus BCG therapy (given into the bladder) for people with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The goal is to see if this combination can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07111364Recruiting
Ultrasound with AI to diagnose bladder tumors
This study uses ultrasound with AI to better diagnose bladder masses. It's for people who have a suspicious finding on a bladder ultrasound and are already planning to have surgery to treat it.
BeijingAges 18–85 - NCT06548529Recruiting
HER2 PET/CT scan to predict treatment response in bladder cancer
This trial uses a special PET/CT scan to see if your bladder cancer has HER2 proteins, which can help predict how well you will respond to a targeted antibody-drug conjugate treatment. It is for people with advanced bladder cancer who have already tried certain standard therapies.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT07217171RecruitingPhase 1
Study of EVOLVE104 for advanced bladder and squamous cell cancers
This trial tests an experimental drug called EVOLVE104 for people with advanced bladder cancer or certain types of squamous cell cancers. It aims to see if the drug is safe and if it can help shrink tumors.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06995898Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection
This study is testing a new blood test that may help find cancer early. You will give blood samples over a year, and researchers will check them for signs of cancer.
Pleasanton, CaliforniaAges 45–75 - NCT06026189Recruiting
Reducing cystoscopy for blood in urine
This trial tests if we can safely skip a bladder camera test (cystoscopy) for people who have microscopic blood in their urine. If you meet certain criteria, you may not need the procedure.
RotterdamAges Any age - NCT03216525RecruitingPhase 3
Alvimopan vs placebo to reduce bowel slowdown after bladder surgery
This trial tests whether alvimopan, a medicine given around the time of bladder removal surgery, can help your bowels start working sooner after surgery compared with a placebo (inactive pill). It may help shorten recovery by reducing bowel-related side effects on an enhanced recovery plan.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT06269536Recruiting
Stress reduction program for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This trial tests a stress-reducing program for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It aims to see if lowering stress can help with treatment outcomes and quality of life.
BratislavaAges 18 years+ - NCT06341478Recruiting
Bladder Cancer Tissue Study in Muscle-Invasive Patients
This study looks at tumor and blood samples from people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer to find markers that help predict how the disease will progress. It aims to improve personalized treatment for those with this specific stage of bladder cancer.
Milan, MiAges 18 years+ - NCT03108196Recruiting
Tested neobladder type after bladder cancer surgery
This trial compares two ways surgeons rebuild a new bladder using either sigmoid colon tissue or ileum (small intestine) tissue. It aims to see which option is safer and works better for people having bladder cancer surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–100 - NCT07726992RecruitingPhase 3
New drug plus BCG for high-risk bladder cancer
This study tests a new immunotherapy drug (SHR-1501) combined with standard BCG therapy for people with a specific type of early bladder cancer (papillary-only, high-risk). The goal is to see if the combination helps prevent cancer from returning better than BCG alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07647289RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy before bladder cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (eribulin and toripalimab) given before surgery to remove bladder cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for people with advanced or high-risk bladder cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07614594Recruiting
Urine Test to Detect Bladder and Kidney Cancer
This study tests whether a simple urine test can accurately identify cancer in the bladder, ureters (tubes between kidneys and bladder), or renal pelvis (part of the kidney). You would provide urine samples before your planned surgery, and researchers will compare the urine test results to your actual tissue diagnosis after surgery.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07545694Recruiting
Bladder Drug Study for Cancer Patients Undergoing Surgery
This study tests how certain drugs affecting the endocannabinoid system (a natural body signaling pathway) affect bladder muscle function in people with bladder cancer who are preparing for or undergoing surgery. Researchers hope this research will help preserve bladder function during cancer treatment.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06709196RecruitingPhase 4
Targeted antibiotics to prevent infections after bladder removal
This trial tests if using a personalized antibiotic approach before surgery can reduce infections compared to the usual one-size-fits-all antibiotics. It focuses on people having their bladder removed (cystectomy) with a specific type of urinary diversion.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT07492628RecruitingPhase 1
Dual-target cell therapy for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new treatment that uses your own immune cells, called CAR-NK cells, modified to attack two proteins (Nectin-4 and HER2) often found on bladder cancer cells. It is for people whose cancer has spread or cannot be removed by surgery and has not responded to standard treatments like chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06186414RecruitingPhase 1
SIM0237 with or without BCG for bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug, SIM0237, alone or with BCG, for people with a type of bladder cancer called non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) that did not respond to BCG treatment. The goal is to see if it is safe and works against the cancer.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for bladder cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 373 recruiting bladder cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a bladder cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a bladder cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
