About this study

Official title: Investigation of Urine Volatile Organic Compounds as Novel Diagnostic Biomarker in Bladder Cancer

The goal of this study to investigate the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the urine samples of both healthy individual and bladder cancer patients, using gas chromatography - mass spectrometry. Researchers aim to find a set of certain VOCs specific to bladder cancer and use this set to construct a diagnostic model that can help diagnosing bladder cancer. Participants will be asked to collect their early morning midstream urine in a predesignated container. Researchers will compare urine VOCs from bladder cancer patients and healthy individuals to see if there is any VOC whose concentration differ significantly among the two groups.

Read the detailed description

Specifically, participants will be asked to collect 35-45 ml of their early morning midstream urine sample in a predesignated polytetrafluoroethylene bottle. Researcher will collect participants' health information, including their: 1)smoking history; 2)comorbidity; 3) history of past urological procedure; 4)medication; 5)pathology diagnosis after surgery, if participants have bladder cancer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • analysis of urine volatile organic compoundsDiagnostic test

    gas chromatography - mass spectrometry will be used to assess the composition of VOCs in urine samples of all participants.

Study groups in NCT05671289
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with confirmed bladder tumorPatients with bladder tumor, confirmed by cystoscopy and radiology. Age ranging from 18 to 80 years old. Women of childbearing age should have negative urine pregnancy test.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: analysis of urine volatile organic compounds
Healthy volunteersIndividuals with no known disease and normal urinalysis. Age ranging from 18 to 80 years old. Women of childbearing age should have negative urine pregnancy test.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: analysis of urine volatile organic compounds

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Urine volatile organic compounds composition of all urine samples

    Data derived from mass spectrums of GC-MS measurement of VOC components in urine samples, including VOC components identified comparing obtained data to those in public GC-MS database and the absolute concentration of VOCs identified.

    Measured: immediately after GC-MS analysis has been finished

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pathological diagnosis of bladder tumor patients enrolled

    Staging of bladder cancer using American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM system and histology of tumor tissue will be collected, if patient has received surgery during hospitalization. Concerning bladder tumor patients only.

    Measured: Immediately after the release of pathological examination reports by pathology department in the First affiliated hospital of Xi'an jiaotong university

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bladder Cancer, run by First Affiliated Hospital Xi'an Jiaotong University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Urine volatile organic compounds composition of all urine samples (time frame: immediately after GC-MS analysis has been finished). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Apr 2024.
