LASP-1, a novel Urinary Marker for Bladder Cancer Detection

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the urinary bladder is the most common genitourinary cancer. Diagnosis of TCC currently relies on cystoscopy and urine cytology. Both examination methods have limitations. The present technology describes a novel urinary marker for the detection of bladder cancer. With a sensitivity of 85 % and a specificity of 86.4 % the potential marker exceeds currently commercially available bladder cancer associated marker proteins.
