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+ - NCT05796375RecruitingPhase 2
Urine testing instead of repeat bladder scope checks
This Phase 2 study tests whether urine tests can help monitor “non-muscle-invasive” bladder cancer without doing as many invasive bladder scopes (cystoscopies). If you qualify, you may be able to replace some scope visits with urine sample testing while still keeping close watch for cancer coming back.
West Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06801938Recruiting
Blue dye test during incontinence surgery to reduce complications
This study tests if using a special blue dye (methylene blue) during surgery to correct stress urinary incontinence helps doctors find and prevent complications. It compares two surgical methods (TVT and TOT) to see which is safer.
IstanbulAges 18–85 - NCT07017660Recruiting
Virtual reality for comfort during cystoscopy
This trial tests if using virtual reality (VR) during a cystoscopy (a procedure to look inside the bladder) can help reduce pain or anxiety. If you are having a rigid cystoscopy for the first time under local anesthesia, you may be able to participate.
AnkaraAges 18–70 - NCT07037589Recruiting
Blood in urine in older women: is more testing needed?

UddevallaAges 18–110 - NCT03281798Recruiting
Fetal bladder procedure for severe blockage in a baby boy
This trial studies a fetal cystoscopy procedure to treat severe urinary tract blockage in a baby boy during pregnancy. It aims to see whether the procedure helps improve outcomes, but it requires specific pregnancy conditions and testing beforehand.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06944314Enrolling by invitation
Doctors' views on pain during flexible cystoscopy with local anesthetic
This trial asks doctors to rate how much pain they think male patients feel during a minimally invasive bladder exam. It aims to see if doctors' estimates of pain are accurate.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07061964RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and radiation to save the bladder
This trial tests whether combining immunotherapy and low-dose radiation after chemotherapy can help you avoid bladder removal. It's for people whose muscle-invasive bladder cancer has shrunk significantly after initial treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07144319Recruiting
AI-assisted blue light cystoscopy for bladder cancer
This study tests a new AI tool that helps doctors see bladder tumors better during a blue light cystoscopy. You may be eligible if you are scheduled for this procedure and your doctor has prescribed a special dye (Hexvix or Cysview) to use during it.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05987241RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Using a blood test to guide immunotherapy after bladder/kidney cancer surgery
This study tests whether a blood test that detects tumor DNA can help guide the use of immunotherapy (nivolumab with or without relatlimab) after surgery for urothelial cancer. The goal is to see if starting immunotherapy based on the blood test results can prevent the cancer from coming back.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07579195RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Consolidation therapy after EV + pembro in bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy or bladder-removal surgery (consolidation) after EV + pembrolizumab helps control muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has spread. It is for people whose cancer responded to the initial drug combination.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06729346Recruiting
Finding hidden tumors during bladder cancer surgery
This study tests if a special light (NBI) can find bladder tumors that standard white light misses during surgery. It may help ensure more complete tumor removal.
Rawalpindi, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–75 - NCT07572227Enrolling by invitation
Fetal Surgery for Blocked Bladder in Male Babies
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgery (fetal cystoscopy) performed during pregnancy to help male babies with severe bladder obstruction. The goal is to prevent kidney damage and improve outcomes after birth.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05438563Recruiting
MRI-guided prostate cancer ablation with ultrasound from the urethra
This trial tests a newer way to treat certain low- to intermediate-risk prostate cancers using MRI guidance and an ultrasound probe placed through the urethra. It aims to destroy the tumor while using imaging to help target it more precisely.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 45–80 - NCT05337189Recruiting
Urine DNA test study for possible bladder cancer
This trial looks at how a urine DNA test may help find bladder cancer (or clues that it might be present), especially in people with symptoms or higher risk. You may be asked to provide urine and also complete standard tests like imaging, a cystoscopy, or pathology checks.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT05415631Recruiting
AI helps detect bladder tumors during bladder exam
This study tests an artificial-intelligence (AI) system during real-time bladder evaluation to better spot bladder tumors. It may help your care team find tumors more accurately during diagnosis or follow-up.
AmiensAges 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+ - 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+ - NCT06725212Recruiting
Water vapor therapy for enlarged prostate
This trial tests a new treatment that uses water vapor (steam) to shrink an enlarged prostate. It may help men with bothersome urinary symptoms who have not had other prostate procedures.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 45–80 - NCT06818136Recruiting
Bladder cancer urine test for people with blood in urine
This trial is testing a urine test called Bladder EpiCheck to see if it can help find bladder cancer in people who have blood in their urine. You would give a urine sample and then have a standard cystoscopy as part of your care.
Dunfermline, FifeAges 45 years+ - NCT07000084RecruitingPhase 3
Testing gemcitabine with BCG for returning bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug called gemcitabine to the usual BCG therapy can help prevent bladder cancer from coming back again. If you have had BCG before and your cancer returned, this study might offer a more effective treatment option.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06394869Recruiting
Testing a urine test to reduce the need for bladder scopes for invisible blood in urine
This study tests a new urine test called Cxbladder Triage Plus. The goal is to see if using this test can help some people avoid an unnecessary cystoscopy (a scope placed into the bladder) when they have invisible blood in their urine.
Homewood, AlabamaAges 18–88 - NCT07338292Recruiting
