Trial summary

Bladder cancer (BC) is one of the most common type of cancer globally. Due to its high incidence rate, high risk of recurrence and progression, and frequent cystoscopy surveillance, BC contributes to major healthcare costs across the world. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Biomarkers of Recurrence and Progression in Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer - an Association With Inflammatory Response and Plasminogen Activation System

Bladder cancer (BC) is one of the most common type of cancer globally. Due to its high incidence rate, high risk of recurrence and progression, and frequent cystoscopy surveillance, BC contributes to major healthcare costs across the world. The goal of this prospective study was to evaluate the prognostic value of novel non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) biomarkers for predicting disease recurrence or progression after radical transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT). The data obtained from this study may help physicians identify patients who are at greater risk of NMIBC recurrence or progression and require close supervision.

Read the detailed description

The aim of our prospective study was to determine the prognostic impact of the inflammatory response and indicators of nutritional status on recurrence and progression of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) in patients undergoing transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT). We evaluated six biomarkers, 3 in blood serum: soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (sUPAR), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), interleukin 8 (IL-8) and 3 in urine: apolipoprotein E (APOE), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin 8 (IL-8). Furthermore, following indicators of nutritional status were investigated: Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS) and Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS).

The primary endpoint of this study was the recurrence or progression of NMIBC based on the histopathological or cystoscopic result. The study outcome was evaluated during the first surveillance cystoscopy, which was performed in time intervals indicated by European Association of Urology. Based on literature data and statistical assumptions we aimed to recruit 240 patients with NMIBC.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Blood serum: sUPAR, PAI-1, IL-8.Diagnostic test

    The concentration of described biomarkers were measured in serum.

  • Urine: IL-8, APOE, VEGF.Diagnostic test

    The concentration of described biomarkers were measured in urine.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer and Cystoscopy, run by Wroclaw Medical University at 1 site in Poland.

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 3 inclusion and 12 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 1 Feb 2024. 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 Poland. 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?

Tumour recurrence or progression (time frame: Up to 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06235853, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Feb 2024.
