Molecular Biosensors for Detection of Bladder Cancer
Status unconfirmed
Conditions studied: Urinary Bladder Neoplasms
In brief
This project focuses on developing specific and sensitive detectors of biomarker-based signatures associated with diagnosed and recurrent bladder cancer.

Who can join
Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.
You may qualify if…
- Patients ≥18 years old
- Patients with diagnosed bladder cancer, undergoing transurethral resection bladder tumor (TRUBT), or under surveillance (within 2 years) for recurrent bladder cancer
- Patients with microscopic and macroscopic hematuria
- Willing and able to consent
You may not qualify if…
- Patients <18 years old
- Patients who are not able to give consent for study
- Patients with urinary diversions
- Patients who have had a recent percutaneous or endoscopic procedures for upper tract diseases such as stones or other conditions
- Patients who have ureteral stents placed for upper urinary tract obstruction
- Patients with recent trauma in kidney, bladder or perineal area, which may be the cause of hematuria
- Minors will be excluded from this study because ureteral stent placement is usually performed in adult patients. Additionally, minors are treated at CHOC Hospital, and not UCIMC.
- Women who are pregnant are excluded from this study since surgical treatments are not typically performed on pregnant women. Watchful waiting is the preferred approach for pregnant women. Furthermore, this research does not directly benefit the pregnant woman or fetus, and biomedical knowledge can be obtained using subjects who are not pregnant. Therefore, per the federal regulations, pregnant women will be excluded from this study.
