Bladder Cancer Trial, Recruiting

Written by an AI model from the ClinicalTrials.gov eligibility criteria and checked on a sample basis. Please confirm against the original criteria.

Who might be able to join this trial:

• People who have had their gallbladder removed and imaging scans suggest, or have confirmed, a type of gallbladder cancer (stage T1b or higher) that was found unexpectedly, and where doctors have decided that further surgery to remove surrounding tissue is needed.
• People who are considered healthy enough to undergo this further surgery, as assessed by both the surgeon and the anaesthetist.

Who may not be able to join:

• People who have previously had major surgery in the upper abdomen, such as open liver surgery.
• People who are pregnant.
• People where, during surgery, the cancer is found to have spread throughout the abdomen (this may lead to exclusion even after the person has been enrolled in the trial).
• People where, during surgery, doctors find that removal of the bile ducts outside the liver is also needed (this may lead to exclusion even after the person has been enrolled in the trial).
• People where, during surgery, findings mean that only a simple gallbladder removal can be performed rather than the more extensive procedure (this may lead to exclusion even after the person has been enrolled in the trial).

Important: Always verify eligibility with the trial site directly before applying.
