Recruiting studies
- NCT06257017RecruitingPhase 2
Using DNA tests to guide chemotherapy after bladder cancer surgery
This trial checks if a DNA blood test can help decide who needs extra chemo after bladder or upper urinary tract cancer surgery. It tests whether watching for cancer DNA in the blood can match patients to the right treatment.
Hong Kong, Hong KongAges 18–70 - NCT07762586RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This study looks at how well a standard chemotherapy given before surgery works for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It aims to see if higher responses lead to better outcomes.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18–90 - NCT06356155RecruitingPhase 2
Study of two drugs before surgery for upper tract cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab, given before surgery for upper tract urothelial cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for patients who are candidates for surgery.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT04934540Recruiting
Bladder tumor surgery approach registry study
This study is for adults who have a bladder tumor and are having a standard kind of surgery through the urethra. Researchers will collect information about this “en bloc resection” approach to better understand outcomes and care for people with bladder tumors.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06319820RecruitingPhase 3
TAR-210 vs standard bladder chemo for FGFR-mutated bladder cancer
This trial compares a new drug, TAR-210, which is placed directly into the bladder, against standard chemotherapy given through a catheter. It is for people with a specific type of bladder cancer that has a change in the FGFR gene.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06091124RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo before surgery for neuroendocrine bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (adebrelimab) with two chemotherapy drugs (etoposide and cisplatin) given before surgery for a rare, aggressive type of bladder cancer called neuroendocrine carcinoma. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06990061Recruiting
Radiation therapy for BCG-resistant bladder CIS
This trial tests radiotherapy (high-energy X-rays) for a specific type of early-stage bladder cancer (CIS) that hasn't gone away after BCG treatment. It's for people who can't or choose not to have bladder removal surgery.
Anderlecht, Brussels CapitalAges 18 years+ - NCT05126472RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of 2141-V11 for bladder cancer that did not respond to standard treatment
This trial tests a new drug, 2141-V11, for people with bladder cancer that has not gone away after standard treatments like BCG therapy. It may help those with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer or, in one group, muscle-invasive bladder cancer, who cannot have or choose not to have bladder removal surgery.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06378242RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a bladder cancer drug for high-risk NMIBC patients
This trial tests a drug called Disitamab Vedotin, given directly into the bladder, for a type of early bladder cancer (high-risk NMIBC) that has a protein called HER2. It aims to see if this treatment can help avoid more radical surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06287541Recruiting
Do you need a second bladder surgery after a negative urine test?
This study looks at whether a second bladder surgery is still needed for people with high-risk bladder cancer who had a negative urine test after their first surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07468851RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of HS-10566 for high-risk bladder cancer that hasn't spread into muscle
This study tests a new treatment called HS-10566 for people with a type of bladder cancer that has not reached the muscle layer and is considered high-risk, where the usual treatments have not worked or were not an option. It aims to control the cancer and avoid the need for removing the bladder.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06682728RecruitingPhase 2
Treating high-risk bladder cancer after surgery
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (sacituzumab govitecan and nivolumab) given after surgery to prevent the return of muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It is for patients whose cancer has a high chance of coming back despite surgery.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 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 - NCT05600127RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy then immunotherapy plus surgery for advanced bladder cancer
This Phase 2 study tests giving standard chemotherapy first, then immunotherapy, followed by major surgery to remove the bladder/urinary tumor and nearby lymph nodes. It’s for people with locally advanced urothelial cancer whose cancer has at least not worsened after initial chemotherapy.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06310759Recruiting
Testing urine DNA for bladder cancer detection
This trial looks at whether a large urine sample can detect bladder cancer DNA. It may help diagnose cancer without needing a cystoscopy. You can join if you are about to have a cystoscopy to check for bladder cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–100 - NCT07020117RecruitingPhase 1
Study of AKY-1189 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, AKY-1189, for people with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed. It may help if other treatments have stopped working.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for urothelial bladder cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 210 recruiting urothelial 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 urothelial 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 urothelial 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.
