Pee test could replace needles for bladder cancer detection
NCT ID NCT07614594
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing whether a urine test can accurately detect urothelial carcinoma, a type of cancer that includes bladder cancer. Researchers are comparing the test results to standard tissue biopsies in 800 adults with blood in their urine and suspicious imaging findings. If the urine test proves reliable, it could offer a noninvasive, cheaper way to screen for these cancers.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
urine DNA methylation test
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a simple, noninvasive way to detect bladder and related cancers early, reducing the need for invasive biopsies.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study at a single center, so results may not apply to all patients. The test may not be accurate enough to replace standard diagnostic methods.
