Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Enrolled patients diagnosed with muscle-invasive or metastatic bladder (urothelial or non-urothelial) cancer will undergo collection of clinical data and archival tumour specimens. Clinical data collected includes: patient demographics and characteristics, disease clinicopathological and molecular features, treatment history, outcomes and survival. Data will be collected regularly throughout the patient's treatment and follow up until death. Where applicable, patients will also undergo collection of tissue, blood and urine at several time points

Overall survival of patients with muscle invasive or metastatic bladder cancer in Australia after treatment. This outcome is being assessed from each patient's medical record.
Timepoint [1] 343219 0
Data will be collected at up to 6 time points for a maximum of 4 years: diagnosis, surgery, surveillance, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and recurrence. Timepoint is at the end of the 4 year data collection period.
Secondary outcome [2] 347491 0
Number of new prognostic and predictive biomarkers for bladder cancer identified. Outcome is assessed using the following techniques:
• Multiplexed microarrays, used to determine relative expression changes
• Quantitative PCR, used to measure copy numbers of genes and determine relative expression changes
• Immunohistochemistry to identify expression of proteins
• Next generation sequencing, used to determine mutations present in germ cell cancers or germline SNPs
• Proteomics analysis
• Other novel methodologies not yet identified.
Timepoint [2] 347491 0
Timepoint is at the end of the 4 year data collection period.

Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether certain biomarkers have an impact on the effectiveness of treatment of bladder cancer.

Who is it for?
You may be eligible for this study if you are over the age of 18 and have been diagnosed with muscle invasive bladder cancer or metastatic bladder cancer.

Study details
All participants will be required to give blood and urine samples at predetermined time points while completing their own cancer treatment. Where possible, blood collection will be at the same time as routine blood tests to reduce the number of times blood is taken. If there is left over tissue after planned medical procedures then a sample of this tissue will be kept. The blood, urine and tissue samples will then be tested to determine how the cells, genes and immune system interact with the cancer and whether these relate to treatment results.

It is hoped that this research will help us to better understand why some bladder cancers are more aggressive than other and also why some treatments work better in some patients than others.
