Protein markers for bladder diseases
Part of Infections, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks for proteins in your body that might help doctors tell the difference between bladder inflammation and bladder cancer. If you have cystitis or bladder cancer, this trial could help improve future diagnosis and care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have cystitis (bladder inflammation) or bladder cancer, regardless of whether you've had schistosomiasis.
- You do not have any other type of cancer.
- You do not have a urinary tract infection other than cystitis.
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

This study is testing a new urine test that can quickly detect schistosomiasis, a parasitic infection that can cause bladder or intestinal problems. The test uses a simple urine sample, similar to a pregnancy test, and aims to make diagnosis easier and faster.
This study looks at whether a more precise DNA-based test can better find and confirm schistosomiasis (a parasite infection) compared to standard methods. It may help you get a clearer diagnosis and more targeted care.
This study collects urine and tissue samples from people being checked for blood in their urine (hematuria) to build a 'bladder bank' for future research. By donating samples, you help scientists learn more about bladder conditions and improve diagnosis.
This study tests a urine test that may help find bladder cancer early without needing invasive procedures. It is for people with high-grade or high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer who are receiving or have received BCG treatment.
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.
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.
