Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate mood changes in patients with Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer who are receiving intravesical Bacillus Calmete-Guerin (BCG). Patients with Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer receiving intravesical treatments are eligible to participate in this study. Participation involves providing research blood and urine samples prior to the start of treatment and throughout the treatment course. The study team will also collect participant's medical history and clinical information. Participants will be asked to complete questionnaires and daily mood diaries.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study investigates whether BCG (Bacillus Calmette-Guérin) — a bacteria-based treatment instilled into the bladder to prevent bladder cancer recurrence — causes mood changes such as depression or anxiety in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older - You have been diagnosed with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer confirmed by tissue analysis - You are scheduled to receive intravesical (into the bladder) BCG treatment - You are able to provide written informed consent **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are not a candidate for intravesical treatment due to the nature of your disease (e.g., variant histology or progressive disease after prior intravesical treatment) - You are pregnant - You have a condition that would prevent participation in mood assessments Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
