Bladder Cancer Facts By 2030, the annual incidence of bladder cancer is projected to increase to (nearly double that of 2012)1. In Europe2 Every Year • 124,000 people are newly diagnosed with bladder cancer • ~415,000 people live with bladder cancer • More than 40,000 people die from the disease The Incidence of Bladder Cancer is Increasing Because • The risk of getting bladder cancer increases with age, and more Europeans are living longer • The median age of diagnosis is ~70 years 75% of newly diagnosed patients have non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC)3. Their 5 year survival...

Haematuria — Blood in the Urine Blood in the urine is the most common symptom of bladder cancer. • 4 out of 5 people with bladder cancer have some blood in their urine, however5: • 80-90% patients with gross haematuria do NOT have cancer • And over 95% of patients with microhaematuria do NOT have cancer Instead, the most common causes of haematuria are urinary tract infection, nephrolithiasis (stones), polycystic kidney disease, trauma, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in older men, or, in some cases, even vigorous exercise. Sometimes, it can be difficult for doctors to decide who may...

Non-Invasive Tests for Two Clinical Applications Detection Xpert® Bladder Cancer Detection The non-invasive, urine based Xpert ® Bladder Cancer Detection test could help you assess whether your patient presenting with haematuria is likely to have cancer or not. The test detects the presence of bladder cancer in patients with haematuria suspected of having bladder cancer. Xpert® Bladder Cancer Monitor The non-invasive, urine based Xpert ® Bladder Cancer Monitor test could help you decide if your bladder cancer patient has recurring cancer or remains cancer-free. It detects the recurrence of...

Xpert ® Bladder Cancer Detection Xpert ® Bladder Cancer Monitor Bladder cancer confirmed by urologist and pathologist Patient with haematuria Appointment with urologist 3 Investigations & tests; e.g. ultrasound, cystoscopy 4 Positive Result – treatment e.g TURB &/or BCG/ similar 5 Monitor for recurrence, according to local guidelines How Do They Work? Both are ‘non-invasive’ tests that measure the expression of five mRNA tumour markers in a voided urine sample. The five mRNA tumour markers were: • Selected for their presence and ability to distinguish bladder cancer cells from normal cells....

Sensitivity, Specificity & NPV Understanding the concepts of sensitivity, specificity and negative predictive value helps to understand the value of these tests and of other diagnostic methods like cystoscopy and cytology. Sensitivity — the percentage of people with bladder cancer who are correctly identified as having the condition (or the proportion of true positives that are correctly identified). Specificity — the percentage of healthy people who are correctly identified as not having bladder cancer (or the proportion of true negatives that are correctly identified)....

An increase in test sensitivity usually causes a decrease in test specificity. That means some patients might get positive test results but a cancer cannot be found by cystoscopy. Thus, there is a discrepancy between test results. In some patients, these discrepant results are caused by false positive results of the test. In other patients, these discrepant results might be caused by false negative results by cystoscopy. Negative Predictive Value (NPV) — is an estimate of the probability that subjects with a negative screening test truly do not have the disease. A high negative predictive...

The sensitivity was optimised to ensure that patients presenting with all stages and grades of bladder cancer stand the greatest chance of being detected. Xpert® Bladder Cancer Detection exhibits high sensitivity and a high negative predictive value. Xpert® Bladder Cancer Detection Performance vs. Cystoscopy/Histology (N=897 study subjects) Overall Low Grade High Grade Specificity (among patients with 84.6% N/A N/A haematuria) For complete performance information, please see the Xpert® Bladder Cancer Dectection Package Insert: 301-2414, Rev. A The NPV of Xpert® Bladder Cancer Detection is...

This test was optimised to detect recurrent tumours in patients who have already had bladder cancer. The performance for low and high grade tumours increases the likelihood of detecting the tumour regardless of grade. Xpert® Bladder Cancer Monitor Performance vs. Cystoscopy/Histology (N=257 study subjects) Overall Low Grade High Grade Specificity (among patients with 80.6% N/A N/A history of bladder cancer) For complete performance information, please see the Xpert® Bladder Cancer Monitor Package Insert: 301-5933, Rev A The NPV of Xpert® Bladder Cancer Monitor is 93.9%. This means that...

What Do I Need to Do Next? The test is very simple for you and your patient. All the patient needs to do is provide a urine sample. Obtain a urine sample of at least 4.5mL in the primary collection cup. Use the disposable transfer pipette provided in the Xpert Urine Transport Reagent kit in the pouch with the tube. Invert cup 3 times to mix the urine. Obtain one Xpert® Urine Transport Reagent kit. Insert the transfer pipette into the bottom of the urine cup. Transfer approximately 4.0mL of urine so that the volume reaches the black line on the tube label. NOTE: Do not use the pipette from...
