Study summary

Observational study on the quality of life and pathological state of patients underwent radical cystectomy.

Read the detailed description

Each patient will be followed for approximately 10 years starting from the date of surgery. The patient may be contacted for yearly follow-up through one of the preferred methods indicated (phone call, email or home address) which will be carried out by the staff of the Urology Department. The data for each patient will then be transferred to the database itself. The data collected will be handled following the most strict GCPs and privacy norms.

The data entered will concern:

  • period before hospitalization (symptoms, clinical data) and completion of a pre-surgery questionnaire
  • hospitalization period with all its related data
  • questionnaires relating to quality of life which will be administered to the patient once a year according to the preferred method expressed by the patient in the informed consent.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. obtain health benefit for the patients themselves and for future patients underwent radical cystectomy

    All patients, before underwent radical cystectomy, receive a diary in which we ask a detailed clinical history of the patient with their symptoms, diagnosis and previous urological e non urological treatments performed before the operation. A detailed intraoperative, postoperative and follow-up clinical history.

    Time frame: Baseline and Follow-up. 1 Annual follow-up until the patient decides to stop providing follow-up responses or until the date of death from any cause.

  2. improve the patient's scientific knowledge and develop new procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of the patient

    Through the collection of a detailed clinical history of the patient in which themselves report symptoms, diagnosis and previous urological and non-urological treatments and also through the medical record.

    Time frame: Baseline and Follow-up. 1 Annual follow-up until the patient decides to stop providing follow-up responses or until the date of death from any cause.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Feb 2013 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Feb 2063, 600 months after the start.

Of 167 non-industry observational studies under Urinary Bladder Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 60 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 30. This study's planned 600 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 202 studies reached it within 60 months; a quarter within 32.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Dec 14, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
