New online tool aims to help bladder cancer patients navigate tough treatment choices
NCT ID NCT05033067
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested a new online tool called the Personal Patient Profile for Bladder Cancer (P3BC) in 24 patients who were facing bladder removal surgery. The tool provides personalized information, videos, and summaries to help patients talk with their doctors and prepare for recovery. The goal was to see if patients found the tool useful and acceptable, and to gather information for a larger future study.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Personal Patient Profile - Bladder Cancer (P3BC) decision aid
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this tool could help bladder cancer patients better communicate with their doctors and make more informed decisions about their treatment and recovery.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small pilot study with only 24 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The tool is still in early development and needs larger trials to confirm its benefits.
