Start Date

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Application of Multi-Component Liquid Biopsy (ctDNA, utDNA, Exosomes, and Protein Biomarkers in Blood and Urine) for Auxiliary Diagnosis, Therapeutic Response Evaluation, and Recurrence Monitoring in Urothelial Carcinoma


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is using liquid biopsy — a simple blood test that detects cancer DNA — to identify, track, and predict recurrence in people with urothelial carcinoma, a type of cancer that affects the bladder and urinary tract. Researchers want to see if this blood test can catch signs of cancer returning before symptoms appear. **You may be eligible if...** - You have suspected or confirmed urothelial carcinoma (bladder or urinary tract cancer) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have or have had another type of cancer that is currently active Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTMulti-Component Liquid Biopsy for Urothelial Carcinoma

This intervention is a non-invasive, multi-component liquid biopsy assay specifically designed for patients with urothelial carcinoma (including bladder cancer and upper tract urothelial carcinoma). It integrates multiple tumor-derived analytes from paired blood and urine samples: circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA)/circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) from peripheral blood plasma, urinary tumor DNA (utDNA)/cell-free DNA from urine, exosomal RNAs (e.g., miRNAs, lncRNAs) and proteins from urine-derived exosomes, and selected tumor-associated proteins. Serial sampling is performed at key clinical time points to enable longitudinal assessment: 1. Pre-diagnosis or baseline 2. During treatment 3. Post-treatment surveillance
