A method of detecting a predisposition to, or the incidence of, bladder cancer in a sample comprises detecting an epigenetic change in at least one gene selected from FOXE1 and GATA4. Detection of the epigenetic change is indicative of a predisposition' to, or the incidence of, bladder cancer. The sample comprises nucleic acid molecules from bladder cells. The methods may be used to select treatments and patients for treatment. Related kits include primers allowing the methylation status of the genes to be determined.

L'invention concerne un procédé de détection d'une prédisposition à un cancer de la vessie ou de l'incidence de ce cancer dans un échantillon, qui comprend la détection d'un changement épigénétique dans au moins un gène choisi parmi FOXE1 et GATA4. La détection du changement épigénétique indique une prédisposition à un cancer de la vessie ou l'incidence de ce cancer. L'échantillon comprend des molécules d'acide nucléique de cellules de vessie. Les procédés peuvent être utilisés pour choisir des traitements et des patients pour un traitement. Des nécessaires associés comprennent des amorces permettant de déterminer le statut de méthylation des gènes à déterminer.
