Non Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer clinical trials in California
We’re tracking 35 recruiting non muscle invasive bladder cancer studies with a site in California — including Phase 1, Phase 1/Phase 2, Phase 2, Phase 2/Phase 3 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in California
- NCT05951179RecruitingPhase 2
Bladder instillation study for high-grade non–muscle-invasive cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests TARA-002 given directly into the bladder to treat high-grade non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer with active disease. It may help patients who have not previously responded to, or have not received, BCG treatment in the recent past.
Bakersfield, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05710848RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for repeat bladder tumor surgery patients
This trial tests STM-416, given around the time you have surgery to remove recurring bladder tumors, to see if it can reduce the chance the cancer comes back. It is for people with high-risk early bladder cancer (non–muscle-invasive) who have already had standard treatment and now need another TURBT.
Bakersfield, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05521698RecruitingPhase 1
Bicalutamide for early-stage bladder cancer
This trial tests whether the drug bicalutamide can help men with early-stage (non-invasive) bladder cancer, which has not grown into the bladder muscle. It is given before surgery to see if it can reduce the chance of the cancer coming back. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive bicalutamide or a placebo before their scheduled surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Arroyo Grande, CaliforniaAges 40–75 - NCT04752722RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for bladder cancer that came back after BCG
This study tests a new gene therapy (EG-70) given directly into the bladder for people with a high-risk bladder cancer called NMIBC. It may be an option if BCG treatment stopped working, or if you cannot have or choose not to have bladder removal surgery.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03193515Recruiting
Blood test to monitor bladder cancer returning
This trial tests a new blood test that looks for signs bladder cancer may be coming back in people with a recent history of bladder cancer. It may help by making surveillance easier, but you must still follow a scheduled bladder-check plan.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test to catch cancer early after treatment
This study looks for signs of cancer left in the body after treatment using a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy). It aims to see if the test can catch cancer that might come back earlier than regular scans.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06493552RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing sEphB4-HSA in EphrinB2-high bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug called sEphB4-HSA for people with a specific type of bladder cancer (urothelial carcinoma) that has high levels of a protein called EphrinB2. The study aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors or prevent them from growing, and it compares it to standard treatments like chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07720284RecruitingPhase 3
Testing new drugs for high-risk bladder cancer after surgery
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (Dato-DXd plus rilvegostomig) against standard treatments for people with high-risk, muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has been surgically removed. The goal is to see if the new treatment reduces the chance of the cancer coming back.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02660645Recruiting
Blue light bladder scan for suspected bladder cancer
This trial uses a special blue-light camera during a bladder procedure to help doctors better see non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It may help find cancer spots more clearly so they can be treated sooner.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05614739RecruitingPhase 1
Study of vepugratinib for cancers with FGFR3 gene changes
This study tests a new pill, vepugratinib, for people whose cancer has a specific change in a gene called FGFR3. The drug targets this gene change to try to slow or shrink the cancer, and may be an option if standard treatments have not worked.

What taking part in a non muscle invasive bladder cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there non muscle invasive bladder cancer clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 35 recruiting non muscle invasive bladder cancer studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a non muscle invasive bladder cancer study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a non muscle invasive bladder cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
