Trial summary

miRNAs have been detected in different bodily fluids, which suggests significant potential, such as their use as biomarkers in diagnostics and prognostics. Sha-mir-71a was abundantly found in the urine of patients with bladder cancer as compared to benign bladder cystitis associated with schistosomiasis . Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Role of Aschistosoma Haematobiumspecific microRNAas Atumor Marker for Early Diagnosis and Prognosis of Bilharzial Bladder Cancer in Eygpt

miRNAs have been detected in different bodily fluids, which suggests significant potential, such as their use as biomarkers in diagnostics and prognostics. Sha-mir-71a was abundantly found in the urine of patients with bladder cancer as compared to benign bladder cystitis associated with schistosomiasis . Additionally, this miRNA was more highly detected in urine samples from patients with bilharzial bladder cancer than bladder cancer not associated with bilharziasis (schistosomiasis), suggesting its specificity in the identification of bladder cancer associated with infection.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing urinary micro RNA detection in people with Bladder Cancer, run by Sohag University.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact esraa o ali, assistant lecturer (01142171590, esraa.ismail@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

use micro RNAas adiagnostic test for early diagnosis of shistosomal bladder cancer (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05697224, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 25 Jan 2023.
