To evaluate the clinical utility associated with the integration of Cxbladder into the evaluation of subjects presenting with hematuria for evaluation of urothelial carcinoma (UC) without compromising detection of UC.
Randomised two arm pragmatic clinical study to be conducted at multiple sites in US and Canada. The trial will recruit hematuria subjects, presenting to qualified sites (academic, community), who are being evaluated for urothelial carcinoma (UC). Up to 100 consecutive eligible subjects will be recruited per site.

The Cxbladder Triage test result will be provided to physicians for all "low risk" subjects on the test arm. If a "low risk" subject has a Cxbladder Triage negative test result then the indication is to rule out the subject without further assessment. The decision to rule-out or further evaluate is solely that of the physician and subject. If the "low risk" subjects are not Cxbladder Triage negative then a Cxbladder Detect test result will also be provided. The indication is further evaluation as per standard of care. "Not low risk" patients will be evaluated as per standard of care.

To measure the change in cystoscopy procedure use count between control and test arms when Cxbladder Triage is used in the evaluation
To evaluate the increase in utility as defined by the reduction in cystoscopy procedure count when Cxbladder is used in the evaluation. The comparison will be made when comparing test and control arms on a per subject basis. The gold standard for determination of a confirmed clinical diagnosis is cystoscopy confirmed by pathology, plus imaging or any follow-up investigations relating to the visit.
Time frame: The outcome measure will be assessed by 6 months after trial completion.
To measure the change in total procedure use (and the invasive procedure sub-group) count between control and test arms when Cxbladder is used in the evaluation.
To evaluate the increase in utility as defined by the reduction in total procedures (and the invasive procedures subgroup) count when Cxbladder is used in the evaluation. The comparison will be made when comparing test and control arms on a per subject basis.
Time frame: The outcome measure will be assessed by 6 months after trial completion.
To measure the number of subjects who were incorrectly diagnosed associated with the integration of Cxbladder into the evaluation of subjects (or sub-cohorts on test and control arms) presenting with hematuria for evaluation of UC
To quantify the false negative rate (the percentage of the negative fraction incorrectly diagnosed) associated with the integration of Cxbladder into the evaluation of subjects (or sub-cohorts on test and control arms) presenting with hematuria for evaluation of UC
Time frame: The outcome measure will be assessed by 6 months after trial completion.
To clinically validate the performance characteristics and test negative rate of the Cxbladder Detect+ test.
The Cxbladder Detect+ test results will be compared to that of cystoscopy, which is the gold standard method for diagnosing urothelial cancer; the true positive and true negative rates will be measured, along with the false positive and false negative rates of the test. The results will be reported as sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value and test negative rate of the Cxbladder Detect+ test for detecting urothelial cancer in patients referred for evaluation of hematuria.

Quantify performance characteristics of Cxbladder signatures including for the detection of high grade/stage UC.
The Cxbladder signature test results will be compared to that of cystoscopy, which is the gold standard method for diagnosing urothelial cancer; the true positive and true negative rates will be measured, along with the false positive and false negative rates of the test. The results will be reported as sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value of the Cxbladder signature tests for detecting urothelial cancer in patients referred for evaluation of hematuria.
