This trial tests a combination of a targeted drug (enfortumab vedotin) and focused radiation before surgery to remove the bladder. It is for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who cannot take cisplatin chemotherapy.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06447064Recruiting
Cancer loyalty card study for early detection
This study looks at whether shopping loyalty card data can help detect cancer earlier. If you have a Tesco Clubcard or Boots Advantage Card, you may be able to join by sharing your purchase history to help researchers find patterns linked to cancer.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06470282RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Drug combo plus radiation for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab) plus radiation therapy for people with bladder cancer that has grown into the muscle layer. The goal is to see if this treatment can kill the cancer while avoiding the need for bladder removal surgery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06488222RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy for low-grade bladder cancer that comes back
This trial tests whether putting two chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine and docetaxel) directly into the bladder can treat low-grade bladder cancer that is at intermediate risk. The goal is to see if this approach can help people avoid more invasive treatments.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06493370RecruitingPhase 2
IV vitamin C plus chemo for bladder cancer
This trial tests adding high-dose vitamin C (ascorbate) to a standard chemotherapy combination for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who cannot take or choose not to take cisplatin. The goal is to find a more affordable and effective treatment option.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT06537960Recruiting
Later scan images to better see bladder cancer spread
This trial tests whether taking extra, later images during your standard FDG PET-CT scan can give doctors a better view of how far your muscle-invasive bladder cancer has spread. You may be eligible if you are 18 or older, have confirmed muscle-invasive bladder cancer, and are already getting this type of scan.
Suresnes, Île-de-France RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT06571708RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus immunotherapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This trial tests adding two immunotherapy drugs (cemiplimab and fianlimab) to standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and cisplatin) for people with bladder cancer that has grown into the muscle layer but hasn't spread. The goal is to see if adding these immunotherapies helps shrink the tumor before surgery.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06586255RecruitingPhase 1
Immunotherapy and radiation after bladder cancer surgery
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy to immunotherapy after bladder removal surgery can help prevent cancer from coming back. It's for people with advanced bladder cancer who have already started immunotherapy.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06595446Recruiting
Timing of stent removal after bladder cancer surgery
This study looks at whether removing a small tube (stent) placed during bladder surgery earlier or later helps recovery. It is for patients having a specific type of bladder removal surgery that creates a new way for urine to leave the body.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06691776Recruiting
Adaptive radiotherapy for five cancer types
This trial tests whether a newer type of daily CT scan (CBCT-guided adaptive radiotherapy) can safely and accurately deliver radiation to cancers of the prostate, cervix, bladder, lung, or head and neck. The goal is to better target the tumor and reduce side effects.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06704191RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
In-home chemo for bladder cancer trial
This trial tests if you can receive chemotherapy for bladder cancer at home instead of in the clinic. It is for people with early-stage bladder cancer who are already getting certain types of intravesical (inside the bladder) treatment.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07302230Recruiting
Home exercise app for bladder cancer patients
This trial tests whether a home-based physical activity program using a smartphone app helps people with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer become more active compared to a health education group. It's designed for those who are not very active and want to improve their health.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06732531RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for high-risk bladder cancer that came back after BCG
This clinical trial tests a new drug, BH011, for people with high-risk, non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has come back or not responded to BCG therapy. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and works well when given directly into the bladder, as an alternative to bladder removal surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06733363RecruitingPhase 2
Vegetable diet to prevent bladder cancer return
This trial tests whether a diet rich in cruciferous vegetables (like broccoli, cauliflower, and kale) can help prevent bladder cancer from coming back or getting worse. It is for people with early-stage, non-invasive bladder cancer who live in New York State.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06735287Recruiting
Bladder-sparing treatment for large bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy to treat large, non-invasive bladder cancer before and after surgery. It aims to avoid removing the bladder while still effectively treating the cancer.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06764095RecruitingPhase 4
Drug combo before bladder or ureter surgery for advanced cancer
This trial tests two drugs, enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab, given before surgery to remove the bladder or ureter in people with advanced bladder or upper urinary tract cancer that has spread to lymph nodes or other organs. The goal is to see if this treatment helps shrink the cancer and improves outcomes.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06775977Recruiting
Ultrasound contrast for bladder cancer staging
This trial uses a special ultrasound with contrast dye to get a clearer picture of bladder cancer before any treatment. It aims to improve how doctors determine the stage of the cancer, which helps guide the best treatment plan.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07067749RecruitingPhase 3
MRI-guided treatment for muscle invasive bladder cancer
This trial uses advanced MRI scanning to guide treatment decisions for muscle invasive bladder cancer. It aims to improve outcomes by personalizing therapy based on detailed imaging.
Rome, RMAges 18 years+ - NCT07097142RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter radiation for bladder cancer with chemo
This trial tests if a shorter course of radiation therapy works as well as the usual longer course for people with bladder cancer who are also receiving standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if shorter treatment can reduce side effects while still being effective.
Fort Smith, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07130578Recruiting
Urine DNA test to guide second bladder cancer surgery
This trial is testing whether a urine test for tumor DNA/RNA can help guide the decision for a second surgery in people with high-risk, non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It aims to see if the urine test can predict who needs the second surgery, potentially avoiding unnecessary procedures.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT07180212Recruiting
Urine DNA Test to Guide Cystoscopy in High-Risk Bladder Cancer
This trial tests a urine test that looks for tumor DNA to help doctors decide when you need a cystoscopy (a scope in the bladder). It is for people with high-risk or very high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer who have already had surgery to remove all visible tumors.
Xingtai, HebeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07225127Recruiting
Bladder cancer treatment: therapy vs. surgery
This study compares two standard treatments for high-grade non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has come back after initial treatment: medication placed directly into the bladder (intravesical therapy) or bladder removal surgery (cystectomy). The goal is to see which option works better for patients like you.

- Are there clinical trials for bladder cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 374 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.
