About this trial

This phase II trial tests how well the combination of futibatinib and durvalumab given before cystectomy works in treating patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who are ineligible for cisplatin-based therapy. Cisplatin-based therapy is the standard of care for patients with MIBC. However, many patients cannot receive standard therapy due to poor renal function, peripheral neuropathy, poor functional status, or clinically significant heart failure. Futibatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Durvalumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radical cystectomy is a surgery to remove all of the bladder as well as nearby tissues and organs. Giving futibatinib in combination with durvalumab before surgery may be an effective treatment option for patients with MIBC who are ineligible for cisplatin-based therapy.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Complete pathologic response rate

Will be defined by a percentage of participants with ypT0N0 by pathologic responses.

Time frame
1 day (At the time of radical cystectomy)

Secondary outcomes

1

Incidence of adverse events (AEs)

Will be assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (CTCAE V 5.0). The frequency and severity of AEs and the tolerability of the regimen will be collected and summarized by descriptive statistics. The maximum grade for each type of toxicity will be recorded for each patient, and frequency tables will be reviewed to determine toxicity patterns.

Time frame
Up to 30 days after cystectomy/end of treatment
2

Pathologic down-staging rate to non-muscle invasive disease

Will be define as residual ypT0/1/a/isN0 on radical cystectomy specimens.

Time frame
1 day (At the time of radical cystectomy)
3

Overall survival

The Kaplan-Meier method will be used for survival analysis with 95% confidence intervals.

Time frame
Time from the start date of treatment to death on the study from any cause, assessed up to 2 years
4

Progression free survival

The Kaplan-Meier method will be used for survival analysis with 95% confidence intervals.

Time frame
Time from the start date of treatment to the first occurrence of disease progression or death on the study from any cause, whichever occurs earlier, assessed up to 2 years
