Urine-DNA Biomarkers in Detecting Bladder Cancer

November 7, 2022 updated by: Xiangya Hospital of Central South University

Detection of Bladder Cancer Using Urinary Cell-free DNA and Cellular DNA

DNA biomarkers in urine are important diagnostic and prognostic indicators for bladder cancer. Many genetic alterations have been identified in the urinary DNA. However, not all bladder tumors harbor mutations in the most commonly altered oncogenes. Thus, to reach satisfactory sensitivity and specificity a new diagnostic test should include multiple biomarkers. The investigators will conduct a prospective evaluation of a panel of mutations in urine-DNA test for the detection of urothelial bladder carcinoma in patients with gross hematuria for cystoscope.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Urinary DNA representative of the tumour genome provide a promising resource as a liquid biopsy for non-invasive genomic profiling of urothelial bladder cancers. Voided urine samples will be collected prior to cystoscopy. Cell free DNA and cellular DNA will both be extracted and analyzed. A blood sample will be taken. In patients with bladder wall findings suspicious of cancer, a bladder wall biopsy will be taken and submitted for histopathology examination, according to clinical standard practice. Next generation sequencing will be applied and hotspots mutations in DNA from urine, blood and tumor. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between predictor variables and bladder cancer. The investigators will confirm a couple of common mutations occured in urine-DNA and blood-derived DNA simultaneously and verify the specificity and sensitivity of individual variance or mutation combinations to establish an predictive model with optimal robustness in diagnosis of bladder cancer. Moreover, external consistency test will be performed on subsequent patients collection.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Diagnosed Urinary Bladder Cancers
Patients who are being monitored for bladder cancer will be the experimental group to test the urine-DNA by next generation sequencing for bladder cancer biomarkers
Diagnostic test: Next generation sequencing
The obtained DNA from the urine, blood and tumor (optional) will be tested by next generation sequencing for each arm.
Non-Urinary Bladder Cancers
Patients being treated for gross hematuria will provide a negative control to provide data from testing by next generation sequencing for biomarkers in patients being treated for other diseases.
Diagnostic test: Next generation sequencing
The obtained DNA from the urine, blood and tumor (optional) will be tested by next generation sequencing for each arm.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
sensitivity of urinalysis by Urine-DNA test
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 8 months
number of patients "declared positive" with the Urine-DNA test among the patients actually suffering from bladder carcinoma
through study completion, an average of 8 months
specificity of urinalysis by Urine-DNA test
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 8 months
number of patients "declared negative" with the Urine-DNA test among the patients without bladder carcinoma
through study completion, an average of 8 months
