NCT ID NCT05649306

First seen Oct 31, 2025

Summary

This study looks at whether extra education and support can help women with bladder cancer feel better emotionally and sexually. Researchers will compare a group that gets standard care with a group that also receives handouts, counseling, a support group, and educational sessions. About 80 women will take surveys about their mood and sexual function to see if the extra help makes a difference.
