Urine test for detecting urological cancers in people with blood in urine
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests a new urine test that may help find cancers of the urinary tract (like bladder or kidney cancer) in people who have blood in their urine. If the test works well, it could provide a simpler way to check for cancer compared to standard procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must have blood in your urine (hematuria) that needs further evaluation.
- You are scheduled to have a cystoscopy and/or ureteroscopy (procedures to look inside your urinary tract).
- You must be able to give written permission to join the study.
- You should not have had a previous diagnosis of urological cancer.
- You should not have participated in another clinical trial in the last 3 months.

This study tests whether a simple urine test can accurately identify cancer in the bladder, ureters (tubes between kidneys and bladder), or renal pelvis (part of the kidney). You would provide urine samples before your planned surgery, and researchers will compare the urine test results to your actual tissue diagnosis after surgery.
This study uses a urine test to detect small amounts of cancer DNA (microscopic residual disease) after treatment, to see if it can catch a recurrence earlier than standard scans or cystoscopy. It includes four groups of people with different types and stages of urothelial cancer (in the kidney, ureter, or bladder) to see how well the test works for each group.
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.
This study collects urine samples to test UroAmp, a new genetic test that may help detect and monitor bladder cancer. It is for people with bladder cancer or blood in urine who want to help improve cancer detection.
This trial tests non-invasive tests (using urine samples and scheduled bladder procedures) to help detect bladder cancer. It may be helpful if you are having bladder evaluation or surgery and your care team wants better ways to detect cancer without invasive testing beyond what you already need.
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.
