New study tests whether education and support groups ease bladder Cancer's hidden toll
NCT ID NCT05649306
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
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.
