Who can take part

AI summary

From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.

The trial is looking for adults with high-risk muscle invasive urothelial cancer of the bladder or upper urinary tract who have had the cancer fully removed by surgery and have no sign of disease now.

Age
Over 18 years (the registry also lists a maximum age of 64 years).
Sex
All sexes can join.
Disease stage
Muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder or upper tract, at high risk of coming back. Without earlier treatment before surgery: pT3–pT4aN0, or any pT with pN+. After treatment before surgery: ypT2–ypT4a, or any ypT with ypN+. No sign of disease at screening.
Earlier treatment
Must have had complete surgery (R0 radical resection) 28 to 120 days before randomisation. Must not have had any treatment with drugs or radiation after the surgery. Must not have had TROP2-directed therapy, other ADCs with deruxtecan, anti-cancer vaccines, or anti-TIGIT therapy.
Biomarker or test result
An archival tumour sample from the surgery must be available for central testing.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Tumour that is mostly or purely high grade neuroendocrine carcinoma
  • Past or current lung inflammation such as ILD/pneumonitis
  • Active or uncontrolled infection, including hepatitis B or C, or HIV that is not well controlled
  • Autoimmune or inflammatory disease needing systemic treatment in the past 5 years
  • Pregnant, breastfeeding or planning to become pregnant

Who can take part

  • Participant must be > 18 years of age at the time of signing the ICF
  • Histologically confirmed MIUC of the bladder or upper tract
  • Completed R0 radical resection 28 to 120 days before randomisation, with negative margins and no residual or metastatic disease
  • Pathologic evidence of urothelial carcinoma at high-risk of recurrence and (a) not received neoadjuvant therapy and has pT3–pT4aN0, or any pT with pN+ stage; (b) completed neoadjuvant treatment and has ypT2–ypT4a, or any ypT with ypN+ stage
  • No evidence of disease at screening
  • ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 with no deterioration over the previous 2 weeks prior to randomisation
  • Minimum life expectancy of > 12 weeks at time of screening
  • An archival surgical tumour sample must be available prerandomisation for central testing
  • Adequate organ and bone marrow function within 28 days before randomisation

Who cannot take part

  • Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders requiring systemic treatment in the past 5 years
  • Prior exposure to TROP2-directed therapies, other ADCs with deruxtecan, therapeutic anti-cancer vaccines, anti-TIGIT therapy or any other anti-cancer therapy targeting immuneregulatory receptors or mechanisms
  • Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days prior to treatment assignment/randomisation
  • Any adjuvant systemic or radiation therapy post-surgery for urothelial carcinoma
  • History of another primary malignancy except for malignancy treated with curative intent with no known active disease within 2 years before the first dose of study intervention and of low potential risk for recurrence
  • Any other active or uncontrolled infection including tuberculosis requiring systemic treatment that has not resolved by the time of randomisation
  • History of non-infectious ILD/pneumonitis including radiation, pneumonitis that required steroids, has current ILD/pneumonitis, or has suspected ILD/pneumonitis that cannot be ruled out by imaging at screening
  • Uncontrolled or significant cardiac conditions
  • Known history of severe hypersensitivity reactions to any study drug
  • Partial cystectomy in the setting of bladder cancer primary tumour or partial nephrectomy
  • Severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases, history of organ transplant or allogeneic stem cell transplant, or psychological disorders/social situations, and/or substance abuse
  • History of clinically significant corneal disease
  • Ongoing toxicities except alopecia from prior cancer treatment must be Grade ≤ 1 or at baseline. Stable Grade 2 toxicities are allowed if unchanged for ≥3 months and managed by standard care
  • Active or uncontrolled hepatitis B or C virus infection
  • Known HIV infection that is not well controlled
  • Any tumour with predominant or pure high grade neuroendocrine carcinoma component
  • Has clinically severe pulmonary function compromise
  • Mean resting corrected QTcF > 470 ms regardless of gender, obtained from triplicate 12-lead ECGs performed at screening
  • Not eligible to receive at least one of SoC according to local regulations/approvals
  • Currently pregnant (confirmed with positive pregnancy test), breastfeeding or planning to become pregnant

About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

To demonstrate the superiority of Dato DXd + rilvegostomig (Arm 1) versus standard of care (Arm 3: nivolumab or durvalumab or EV + pembrolizumab) by disease free survival (DFS) per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the Investigator in participants with high risk residual MIUC after radical resection.

Questions to ask the study team

  1. How often do I need to come in, and for how long each time?
  2. Are travel costs paid?
  3. Can I keep my own doctor?
  4. What happens if I want to stop?
