Diagnostic Evaluation of Urine DNA Methylation/Somatic Mutation Profiling for Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma Detection

Recruiting
Conditions
Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma
Registration Number
NCT04948528
Lead Sponsor
AnchorDx Medical Co., Ltd.
Brief Summary

Clinical trial to determine the efficacy (sensitivity and specificity) of Anchordx's urine DNA methylation/somatic mutation assay for detecting upper tract urothelial carcinoma compared to pathology in patients.

Detailed Description

This is a prospective study that involves 8 centers in China and 490 participants. The test analyzes the DNA methylation/somatic mutation profiles of urothelial cancer-specific biomarkers non-invasively using urine specimens collected before invasive diagnosis/treatment. The efficacy (sensitivity and specificity) of the assay for detection of upper tract urothelial carcinoma is evaluated in comparison to pathology or cystoscopy.
