About this trial

A multicenter Phase 1b/2, two stage, open label study of MMC/Capecitabine ChRT combined with nivolumab monotherapy or nivolumab and ipilimumab combination therapy in adult (\>18 years) subjects with non-metastatic muscle invasive bladder cancer that qualify for ChRT with curative intent.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Be willing and able to provide written informed consent for the trial.

Be ≥ 18 years of age on day of signing informed consent.

Wish to preserve their bladder function or be ineligible for cystectomy.

Must have undergone transurethral biopsy of the bladder tumor, within 35 days of planned treatment commencement. The patient should have a histologically-confirmed diagnosis of muscle-invasive T2-T4a, N0-1M0 urothelial cell carcinoma of the bladder.

Disqualifiers

Has DPD deficiency.

Has concurrent extra-vesical (i.e. urethra, ureter or renal pelvis) urothelial cell carcinoma of the urothelium. Patients who have involvement of the prostatic urethra with urothelial cell cancer may be included if the location can be safely incorporated in the radiation field.

Extensive or multifocal bladder carcinoma in situ (CIS) precluding curative chemoradiotherapy.

Evidence of distant metastatic disease on a CT or FDG PET/CT chest/abdomen/pelvis performed within 28 days prior to study entry. Up to 3 metastatic lymphnodes in the pelvis (below the common iliac arteries) are allowed, if these can be incorporated in the radiotherapy field.
