Research

Mayo Clinic doctors continually do research on new treatments to try before cystectomy, during cystectomy and if needed, after cystectomy. Mayo Clinic basic science researchers also developed immunotherapy for recurrent or metastatic bladder cancer.

Mayo Clinic doctors and scientists are studying ways to improve outcomes and quality of life for people having a cystectomy. Mayo Clinic was the top recruiter and the main site of a national clinical trial comparing open cystectomy and robotic cystectomy, including cancer outcomes, surgical complications and health-related quality of life after the procedures. Learn more about urology research.

Mayo Clinic doctors maintain the country's largest cystectomy registry, which follows patients who have had cystectomy surgery at Mayo Clinic. The records and specimens kept are reviewed for symptoms that could have predicted complications or cancer recurrence. Registry information also can help answer questions about the need for follow-up after surgery. Ask your surgeon if you may contribute to the future of medicine through one of these research opportunities.

Researchers also are studying ways to improve bladder cancer diagnosis and treatment. Cancer research is conducted in coordination with the Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center. The Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center receives funding from the National Cancer Institute and is designated as a comprehensive cancer center. This is recognition for an institution's scientific excellence and multidisciplinary resources focused on cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment.
