About this trial

This is an open-label, multicenter phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) characteristics of SIM0237 alone or in combination with bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) in participants with Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC)

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Written informed consent.

≥ 18 years of age, male or female.

• Histologically confirmed presence of BCG-unresponsive CIS (with or without Ta or T1 disease) or histologically confirmed presence of BCG-unresponsive high-grade Ta or T1 disease. Histologic confirmation of urothelial carcinoma (mixed histology tumors allowed if urothelial histology is predominant histology).

Dose escalation phase: BCG-unresponsive high-risk NMIBC.

Disqualifiers

• Subjects received TURBT or other surgical treatment for bladder lesions or pelvic radiotherapy or interventional therapy within 2 weeks prior to the first dose.

Previous treatment with: a) IL-15 or IL-2; b) immune checkpoint inhibitors (such as anti-PD-1 or PD-L1 antibodies), ADCs, chemotherapies, oncolytic viruses, BCG or other anti-tumor treatments, unless there is clear evidence of disease persistence/recurrence/progression after the above treatments and beyond 4 weeks prior to the first dose; c) Chinese herbal medicine treatment beyond 2 weeks prior to the first dose is allowed; d) A single immediate instillation of chemotherapy within 4 weeks prior to the first dose is allowed; e) intravesical instillation of mucosal protective agents (e.g., sodium hyaluronate) are allowed.

Subject is participating in an investigational drug or investigational device study.

Subjects have not recovered from AEs caused by previous anti-tumor treatment.
