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 muscle invasive urothelial cancer at high risk of coming back after surgery to remove it. It compares Dato-DXd with rilvegostomig against standard care.
- Age
- Older than 18 years.
- Sex
- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- Muscle invasive urothelial cancer of the bladder or upper tract, fully removed by surgery 28 to 120 days before randomisation, with high risk of recurrence and no sign of disease now.
- Earlier treatment
- No chemotherapy or radiation after the surgery. Some people may have had treatment before surgery. No earlier TROP2-directed therapy, deruxtecan-based ADC, anti-cancer vaccine or anti-TIGIT therapy.
- Biomarker or test result
- An archived tumour sample from the surgery must be available for central testing.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Tumour that is mostly high grade neuroendocrine carcinoma
- Partial removal of the bladder or kidney
- Severe or uncontrolled illness, including lung disease (ILD/pneumonitis), heart conditions or autoimmune disorders
- History of organ transplant or allogeneic stem cell transplant
- Active hepatitis B or C, or HIV that is not well controlled

Show all 29 criteriaShow less
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; not received neoadjuvant therapy and has pT3-pT4aN0, or any pT with pN+ stage; 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 pre-randomisation for central testing
- Adequate organ and bone marrow function within 28 days before randomisation
Who cannot take part
- 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
- 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 immune-regulatory receptors or mechanisms
- Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days prior to treatment assignment/randomisation
- 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 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
- 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

Study details:
Duration: ~78 months (6.5 years) from FSI to last subject visit Treatment length: up to ~12 months, depending on randomized arm Visit frequency: every 3 weeks in Arms 1 and 2; every 2-4 weeks per SoC in Arm 3
The 3 groups in the trial
- Arm 1: Dato-DXd + rilvegostomigTreatment being tested
Dato-DXd: 6 mg/kg IV Q3W for 9 cycles (approximately 6 months), can be extended based on Investigator assessment of tolerability up to 17 cycles or up to 1 year + rilvegostomig: 750 mg IV Q3W 17 cycles or up to 1 year whichever occurs first.
Treatment: Dato-DXd and Rilvegostomig
- Arm 2: Dato-DXd monotherapyTreatment being tested
Dato-DXd: 6 mg/kg IV Q3W for 9 cycles (approximately 6 months), can be extended based on Investigator assessment of tolerability up to 17 cycles or up to 1 year.
Treatment: Dato-DXd
- Arm 3 (SoC): nivolumab or durvalumab or EV + pembrolizumabExisting treatment, for comparison
Either: Nivolumab: 240 mg IV Q2W OR 480 mg IV Q4W up to 1 year Or: Durvalumab: 1500 mg IV Q4W for 8 cycles (or at a dose of 20 mg/kg Q4W in participants who weigh ≤ 30 kg) Or: EV 1.25 mg/kg D1, D8 Q3W up to 6 cycles + pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W up to 14 cycles or 400 mg IV Q6W up to 7 cycles.
