About this trial
In this study, we aim to evaluate the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant combination using intravesical romidepsin and durvalumab in cisplatin-ineligible patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Patients must have histologically confirmed MIBC (T2-T4a, N0, M0 per American Joint Commission on Cancer [AJCC]) pure or mixed histology urothelial carcinoma.
Patients must be ineligible for cisplatin-based chemotherapy due to any of the following: Creatinine clearance (CrCl) < 60 mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault formula; Hearing impaired ≥ Grade 2 by CTCAE criteria; Neuropathy ≥ Grade 2 by CTCAE criteria; Heart failure NYHA ≥ III; ECOG ≥ 2.
Patients must be medically fit for TURBT and radical cystectomy (RC
Age ≥ 18 years
Disqualifiers
Patients with active or prior documented autoimmune disease within the past 2 years prior to Screening or other immunosuppressive agent within 14 days of study treatment. NOTE: Patients with well controlled type 1 diabetes mellitus, vitiligo, Graves' disease, Hashimoto's disease, eczema, lichen simplex chronicus, or psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment (within the past 2 years prior to Screening) are not excluded.
Patients who have concurrent upper urinary tract (i.e. ureter, renal pelvis) invasive urothelial carcinoma. Patients with history of non-invasive (Ta, T1, Tis) upper tract urothelial carcinoma that has been definitively treated with at least one post-treatment disease assessment (i.e. cytology, biopsy, imaging) that demonstrates no evidence of residual disease are eligible.
Patients who have another malignancy that could interfere with the evaluation of safety or efficacy of the study drugs. Patients with a prior malignancy will be allowed without Principal Investigator approval in the following circumstances: Not currently active and diagnosed at least 5 years prior to the date of registration; Non-invasive diseases such as low risk cervical cancer or any cancer in situ; Localized (early stage) cancer treated with curative intent (without evidence of recurrence and intent for further therapy), and in which no chemotherapy was indicated (e.g. low/intermediate risk prostate cancer, etc.). Patients with other malignancies not meeting these criteria must be discussed prior to registration.
Patients who have received any prior immune checkpoint inhibitor (i.e. anti-KIR, anti-PD-1, anti- PD-L1, (including durvalumab) anti-CTLA4 or other).
