Filter by:This study collects blood and urine samples from patients with bladder cancer to support the development of tests for early detection of bladder cancer.
The SeARCH-trial assess the clinical impact of a molecular urine test as a 'urine-first' strategy in the diagnostic workup of patients presenting with microscopic hematuria.
It is of current debate whether the use of invasive (referring to a process that requires insertion into the body) standard of care procedures such as a cystoscopy which is a procedure to look inside the bladder using a thin camera called a cystoscope, is appropriate for use in patients with microscopic hematuria or blood in urine invisible to the naked eye. This is because the risk of disease (bladder cancer - urothelial carcinoma) is relatively low in this population group, approximately 3%. Invasive procedures such as a cystoscopy comes with anxiety and pain, in addition to other potential side effects. This has resulted in low admittance in urology clinics for cystoscopy with hematuria (blood in urine) patients. Therefore, there is a need for a more simple, non-invasive test that can accurately detect the presence or absence of disease (urothelial carcinoma) in patients with microscopic hematuria. There is a potential role Cxbladder, a non-invasive, urine based test, can fill this role.
There is currently no accepted screening strategy for patients at high risk of developing bladder cancer. This study will ask patients to complete a urine test every 6 months for 2 years to help assess if routine screening helps finding bladder cancer at an earlier stage.
Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) is a size-independent treatment option for benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) as recommended by the American Urological Association (AUA) Guidelines. Loop diuretics (furosemide) have been given historically during the morcellation portion of HoLEP to promote urine production in the post-operative setting and to minimize the impact of fluid absorption during long periods of morcellation. The intra-operative use of 20mg IV furosemide in perioperative HoLEP pathways has been propagated with the dissemination of HoLEP across North America without evidence to support its routine administration. With increasing surgical efficiency from improvements in laser and morcellator technology, the role of intra-operative furosemide is unknown. This study is designed to assess if there is a significant difference in same day discharge rates after Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) with and without IV furosemide. .
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of Lidocaine solution versus placebo (isotonic Sodium Chloride NaCl) disposed inside the urinary bladder as intravesical anesthesia prior to onabotulinum toxin A injections in the treatment of urgency urinary incontinence.
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the EarlyTect® Bladder Cancer test for bladder cancer among patients with hematuria by comparing it to the results of cystoscopy examinations. The second objective is to compare the clinical performance of EarlyTect® Bladder Cancer test with a NMP22 test and urine cytology test with respect to bladder cancer. By histopathological examination, lesions identified during cystoscopy will be confirmed as malignant or non-malignant by histological examination.
This research is about modification during routine cystoscopy (scope in the bladder) procedure [ experimental research ]. The goal of the study is to evaluate patient experience with cystoscopy by using procedural modification to reduce pain perception. The investigator aim for quality improvement of the current methods of cystoscopy to achieve a better patient experience.
In this study, investigators aim to determine the true positivity of bladder cancer identified in the bladder base, trigone or neck on ultrasonography (USG) in patients presenting with hematuria or lower urinary tract symptoms, by confirming with the gold standard cystoscopy and biopsy results. It also aims to explore criteria that would allow to differentiate between intravesical prostate protrusion (IPP) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and bladder cancer indicated at the bladder floor, trigone and neck by evaluating false positive results.
The objectives of the Clinical Validation Through Analytical Study With Urine Samples to Compare the Effectiveness and Security of an Intelligent Device are: 1.To evaluate the performance of S-There Device in comparison to the golden standard used in the lab.
