Additional information regarding sample selection. | Cases at the participating hospitals will be identified as soon as possible after diagnosis. Early identification will be achieved through active searches, involving periodic visits to the hospital departments in which cases are diagnosed or treated. Inclusion period will last 2 years. The local coordinator will maintain a record of the cases identified and will indicate the reasons for which patients were not interviewed or material not collected (e.g., refusal, treatment). |
Database objective | |
Main objective |
1) To test the association between constitutional DNA polymorphism, environmental parameters, molecular subtype and clinical data. The inclusion of features of both the tumour and the host will facilitate the discovery of tumourigenesis mechanisms, drugable targets and diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers.
2) To provide insight into the tumour progression knowledge and to help to identify biomarkers by the sequential sampling of recurrent tumors, plasma or urine from individual patients during follow_up. 3) To validate and extend our prior results regarding the molecular subtyping of bladder cancer on a large series of tumors collected prospectively. 4) To facilitate the transfer of study results into clinical practice thanks to the size and bladder cancer representativeness of the cohort. 5) To describe treatment patterns and to assess the direct and indirect costs of bladder cancer. The cost variability will be analyzed to identify the determinants of cost. This evaluation will pave the way for cost-benefit analyses of new biomarkers developed by the consortium. 6) To structure, at the national level, an interdisciplinary bladder cancer network including epidempiologists, bioinformaticians, health economists, molecular biologists, occupational physicians, pathologists and urologists, for coordinated and synergistic research actions and to make a significant contribution to a European multinational cohort and support international studies in genomics, in particular. |

Procedures | |
Data collection method | Clinical data on the tumour present on inclusion will be obtained from the review of clinical charts by trained monitors. The clinical and pathologic data will include all EAU factors used to predict recurrence and progression (tumour size, multiplicity, stage, grade, associated CIS). All patients will undergo identical interviews, during which they will complete a lifestyle questionnaire (LQ) and quality of life questionnaire (QOL). The lifestyle questionnaire is structured and will be used to collect the following information: demographic details (age/sex/education/place of residence/social class), complete smoking history, history of drinking habits (water, coffee, tea, alcohol, etc), occupational history and physical activity, and personal medical history and familial history of cancer.Health care resources use and quality of life data will be collected for each patient at baseline and every year during follow-up. Healthcare resource use will be collected both from the medical records in the participating centres and interviewing the patients by telephone. Each patient should give its consent to this data collection including access to national health insurance claims data. The economic questionnaire will be structured according the course of the disease (diagnosis, initial treatment, follow-up, recurrences, and progression including metastatic disease). All medical resources (inpatient - surgery, chemotherapy, etc…- , and, outpatient services and visits) related to bladder cancer will be collected for each patient and during the whole study period. Sick leaves will be collected on a yearly basis until the end of follow-up (e.g. 6 years after inclusion). Unit cost information will be gathered from official sources (mainly national health insurance) to cost each type of resources and compute direct and indirect costs. A special attention will be paid to innovative drugs and technologies including biomarkers research. All this information will be collected on specific structured logsheets. |
