A 12-Gene Blood-Based Signature for Detecting Metastatic Bladder Cancer


Inclusion Criteria:



- Patients in whom pelvic lymph node dissection can be performed;

- Any male and/or female, who is ≥18 years of age;

- Pathological diagnosis of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder;

- Localized muscle-invasive disease defined as clinical stage T2-4aN0M0 tumors;

- Did not receive neoadjuvant therapy;

- No radiographic evidence of metastatic disease on CT scans of the abdomen and pelvis,
chest x-ray, or bone scan;

- Informed consent before study participation

Exclusion Criteria:

- Prior systemic chemotherapy;

- Prior radiation therapy;

- A history of another ongoing malignancy within the past 5 years other than basal cell
carcinoma of the skin

Type of Study:

Observational

Study Design:

Observational Model: Cohort, Time Perspective: Prospective

Outcome Measure:

Assess the ability of a mononuclear-cell gene signature to predict the presence of metastatic cancer in the regional L.N. of patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer at the time of cystectomy with PLND for presumed localized muscle-invasive disease.

Outcome Time Frame:

2 years

Safety Issue:

No
