Study Overview

Brief Summary

This prospective, randomized, controlled, single-center study evaluates whether an AI navigation planning system used during Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor (TURBT) can improve recurrence-free survival in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Participants are randomized to receive either standard TURBT surgery or standard TURBT with AI-assisted real-time tumor identification and resection margin guidance. The primary outcome is recurrence-free survival, with secondary outcomes including surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, perioperative bleeding, and complication rates. The study aims to provide high-level evidence on the clinical utility of AI-assisted surgical navigation in bladder cancer treatment.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Age between 18 and 75 years, male or female.
  • Clinical or imaging diagnosis of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) according to international diagnostic standards (CT, MRI, ultrasound, cystoscopy).
  • Medically fit for TURBT surgery, with normal or essentially normal renal, cardiopulmonary, and hepatic function.
  • Willing and able to provide written informed consent (signed by the patient or a legally authorized representative).

Exclusion Criteria

  • Pregnant or lactating women.
  • Severe dysfunction of other vital organs (heart, lungs, kidneys, etc.).
  • Imaging evidence of distant metastases.
  • Severe infection or active inflammation.
  • Psychiatric disorders or inability to comply with study procedures.
  • Any other condition deemed by the investigator as inappropriate for participation.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)

Time Frame: Time Frame: Up to 24 months post-surgery

Time from surgery to the first occurrence of tumor recurrence confirmed by imaging (CT/MRI/ultrasound) or cystoscopy with pathological biopsy, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Participants without an event at the end of follow-up will be censored at the date of the last known follow-up visit.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Surgical Duration(Day of surgery (intraoperative))
  • Intraoperative Blood Loss(Day of surgery (intraoperative)
  • Perioperative Bleeding Rate(Up to 14 days post-surgery)
  • Number of Lesions Detected Intraoperatively(Day of surgery (intraoperative))
  • Postoperative Residual Lesion Rate(Up to 3 months post-surgery)
  • Surgery-Related Complication Rate(Up to 30 days post-surgery)
