Bladder Cancer Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Role of mRNA-based Urine Test (Xpert Bladder Cancer Monitor) in Predicting the Need for Second Look Biopsy After Transurethral Resection of Non Muscle-invasive Bladder Tumor.
The Xpert BC Monitor is an mRNA-based urinary marker test for BC surveillance which measures the levels of five target mRNAs (ABL1, ANXA10, UPK1B, CRH and IGF2) from a voided urine sample by real-time RT-PCR. The Xpert BC Monitor automates and integrates sample processing, nucleic acid amplification, and the detection of target sequences. The performance of Xpert BC monitor regarding its sensitivity and negative predictive value was shown to be considerably high reaching 84% and 93%, respectively. Moreover, this high sensitivity was maintained in low-grade (77%) and Ta tumors (82%). Xpert BC monitor is going to gain now a wide popularity among practitioners in surveillance of NMIBC patients due to its simplicity to do, reliability and reproducibility. The investigators hypothesize that; Xpert BC monitor may be a useful tool in evaluation of patients, who are potentially candidates for repeat TURBT. It can refine the indications of repeat biopsy by exclusion of cases with negative test.
Bladder cancer (BC) is a common cancer worldwide and one of the most expensive to manage. This disease accounts for 6-8% of all male malignancies and 2-3% in women. Non muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) represents about 70% to 80% of bladder cancer. Of these, 70 % present as T1, 20 % as Ta, and 10 % as carcinoma in situ (CIS). Many NMIBCs are amenable to treatment with transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) alone. However, despite the therapeutic impact of TURBT, bladder cancer (BCa) recurrence rate can be as high as 75%. The significant risk of residual tumor after initial TURBT of NMIBC lesion has been demonstrated in many studies. Persistent disease after resection of T1G3 tumors has been observed in nearly 33% to 53% of patients after TURB. Moreover, the tumor is often understaged by initial resection, so the likelihood that a T1 tumor has been understaged and muscle-invasive disease is detected by second resection ranges from 4% to 25%. Treatment of a Ta, T1 high-grade tumor and a T2 tumor is completely different, so correct staging is therefore important. It has been demonstrated that a second TURBT in patients with T1G3 tumor can increase recurrence-free survival. A second look TURBT is recommended in the following situations; 1- After incomplete initial TURBT. 2- If there was no muscle in the specimen after initial resection. 3- In all T1 tumors. 4- In all G3 tumors. These findings lead to many studies which reported on the development of new methods to avoid residual tumor at initial resection as narrow band imaging versus white light imaging. However, such evolutions cannot omit the need for second resection. Despite its valuable role in completion the diagnosis and proper risk categorization of NMIBC, Second look TURBT is still considered an accessory invasive procedure with more added surgical risks of anesthetic and surgical complication as bleeding and perforation. In addition, the cost issue of hospital stay and operating theatre is a major consideration. Recent studies are searching for a less invasive tool that can replace or at least refine the role of second look TURBT. The Xpert BC Monitor is an mRNA-based urinary marker test for BC surveillance which measures the levels of five target mRNAs (ABL1, ANXA10, UPK1B, CRH and IGF2) from a voided urine sample by real-time RT-PCR.
