Bladder Cancer Screening Trial
This study is looking for a better way to screen for bladder cancer, especially for people at higher risk. If you are 50 or older with a history of smoking (at least 15 pack-years) or certain occupational exposures (at least 15 years as a textile worker, painter, or dry cleaner), you might be able to join. Participants will have a urine test (urinalysis) every six months for two years. If certain levels of red blood cells are found in your urine, you might have further tests like a cystoscopy (a procedure to look inside the bladder) or upper tract imaging. The main goal is to see if this screening approach helps find bladder cancer earlier over five years. The current status of this study is unclear, and it plans to enroll 1000 people.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive a specific intervention (urinalysis screening). It plans to enroll 1000 participants.
- What's involved
- You would provide urine samples for urinalysis every six months for two years. If your urine test shows certain results, you might undergo additional tests like a cystoscopy or upper tract imaging.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The study will measure the incidence of bladder cancer at 5 years.
