Urine DNA test for detecting urinary tract cancer in people with blood in urine
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a simple urine test that looks for DNA changes to help find bladder or urinary tract cancer early. It is for people who have blood in their urine and are going to have surgery, to see if the test can accurately detect cancer before surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 99 years old.
- You must have blood in your urine, visible or microscopic (a lab test can confirm).
- You must be able to provide a 50 mL (about 3 tablespoons) urine sample before surgery.
- You must be scheduled for surgery to treat your urinary condition.
- You must not have had any cancer before, including bladder cancer.
- You must not have severe urinary tract infection with sepsis, or use urinary devices like catheters, nephrostomy, or cystostomy.
- You must not be currently having chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy.

This study tests a simple urine test that may help figure out if people with tiny amounts of blood in their urine (not visible to the eye) are at risk for bladder cancer. The goal is to see if this test can help doctors decide who needs more checks.
This study examines whether a simple blood test can detect cancer DNA (circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA) in patients with a specific type of bladder cancer. Detecting this DNA in blood may help doctors predict how the cancer will behave and guide future treatment decisions.
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.
This trial checks whether a new lab test on urine can help sort out which people with small amounts of blood in the urine (microscopic hematuria) might have bladder cancer. It may help doctors evaluate symptoms more accurately and decide who needs further testing.
This trial studies if a urine test for tumor DNA can help decide when a second surgery is needed for early stage bladder cancer. It may reduce unnecessary procedures for some patients.
This study is testing a new urine test that looks for chemical changes in DNA that might indicate bladder cancer (or other urinary tract cancers). The goal is to see if this simple urine test can reliably detect cancer, possibly helping avoid more invasive procedures.
