Pee test could replace scope for bladder cancer checks

NCT ID NCT05080998

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is testing a simple urine test called CxBladder to see if it can accurately detect when bladder cancer comes back. Currently, patients need a camera inserted into the bladder (cystoscopy) for monitoring, which is uncomfortable and costly. The study will collect urine samples from 450 people with a history of bladder cancer and compare the test results to standard cystoscopy findings.

Active substance
CxBladder Monitor/Monitor+ (urinary biomarker test)
What this could lead to
If successful, this urine test could replace some cystoscopies, making bladder cancer monitoring less invasive and more convenient.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The test may not be accurate enough to replace cystoscopy, and results may not apply to all patients.
