About this trial

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of different FDA-approved/NCCN-recommended drug treatments for NMIBC. In particular, the FDA-approved drug nadofaragene firadenovec will be compared to usual care with other NCCN-recommended standard treatments for NMIBC (gemcitabine with or without docetaxel, mitomycin, re-treatment with BCG, or pembrolizumab).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

21 years of age or older

Being treated for high-grade NMIBC (Tis, Ta, or T1) under the care of the participating treating urologists

One or more prior induction course of BCG at any point in time and judgment by the treating urologist that BCG has failed

In the previous 12 months, receipt of at least one instillation of any intravesical agent (induction or maintenance) or one administration of systemic therapy for NMIBC treatment

Disqualifiers

Opting for treatment with radical cystectomy

Currently receiving treatment on a clinical trial of an experimental therapy for NMIBC

Prior exposure to nadofaragene firadenovec

Trial design

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Nadofaragene Firadenovec

    Drug

    For patients randomized to receive nadofaragene firadenovec, the patient will receive nadofaragene firadenovec as of normal saline instilled intravesically every 3 months for up to 12 months.

  • Gemcitabine

    Drug

    gemcitabine instilled intravesically for 1 h, then drained completely out of the bladder

  • Docetaxel

    Drug

    followed by docetaxel instilled intravesically for 1 h. This is given once weekly for 6 weeks for induction. Those who have a complete response typically proceed with once-monthly instillations of GemDoce for up to 24 months as maintenance therapy

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

high-grade recurrence-free survival

The time from the initiation of treatment to the detection of recurrence of high-grade bladder cancer (biopsy-proven intravesical recurrence or distant metastasis). Biopsy proven high grade intravesical recurrence will be based on the MSK pathology review of the bladder tissue samples.

Time frame
up to 24 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Progression-free survival

Disease progression is defined as the development of muscle-invasive disease (stage ≥T2), lymph node or distant metastasis, or death without documented disease progression.

Time frame
up to 24 months
