Trial summary

To identify preoperative predictive factors for final ureteral section invasion after radical cystotomie (RC) and to validate significant factors on an external independent cohort. The investigators retrospectively reviewed data of all consecutive RC performed for bladder cancer in 2 high-volume institutions. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: In cohort A, most patients did not have intraoperative FS examination although it was performed in some cases depending on the surgeon's habits (N¼92). All patients had intraoperative FS in the validation cohort B. All cystectomies performed for nononcological purposes were excluded. All patients had nonmetastatic bladder cancer on preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans.

About this study

Official title: Predictive Factorsfor Final Pathologic Ureteral Sections on 700 Radical Cystectomy Specimens: Implicationsforintraoperativefrozensection Decision-making

To identify preoperative predictive factors for final ureteral section invasion after radical cystotomie (RC) and to validate significant factors on an external independent cohort. The investigators retrospectively reviewed data of all consecutive RC performed for bladder cancer in 2 high-volume institutions. Clinical, pathological, and follow-up data were collected prospectively and reviewed retrospectively. Pathological evaluation was performed by 2 well-trained uropathologists in each center. Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify predictive factors for final ureteral sections involvement. Significant factors in cohort A were validated in cohort B. Receiver operating curve and area under curve were modeled to evaluate predictive accuracy of the markers

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Urothelial Carcinoma, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

preoperative predictive factors (time frame: 2years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jun 2026.
