Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect synchronous use of nivolumab in addition to chemoradiotherapy in patients withnon-metastatic MIBC who are not candidates for radical cystectomy

Detailed description

The initial hypothesis is that addition of nivolumab will increase 2-year locoregional control rate from 55% (control arm) to 75% (immunotherapy arm) There is a 24 month accrual period during which 78 patients will be randomized in a control group (standard chemo-radiotherapy) and the treatment group (chemo-radiotherapy + Nivolumab) The primary objective would be to compare locoregional control rate at 2-years between patients with MIBC receiving or not receiving nivolumab in addition to chemoradiotherapy. The secondary objectives are 1. To study the safety of the addition of nivolumab to chemoradiotherapy in patients with MIBC 2. To compare 2-year bladder cancer failure-free (BCFF) rates, defined as distant metastasis free survival (MFS) AND/OR locoregional failure (defined as in primary objective) 3. To compare median overall survival (OS) in patients with MIBC receiving or not receiving nivolumab in addition to chemoradiotherapy 4. Assess the effect of combined treatment on the quality of life Correlative studies of outcomes with PD-L1expression and with lymphocytic populations in the environment of the tumor

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Locoregional control rate2 yearsTo compare locoregional control rate at 2-years between patients with MIBC receiving or not receiving nivolumab in addition to chemoradiotherapy

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Incidence Rate of treatment-related adverse event (safety and tolerability)2 yearsIncidence of adverse events as assessed by CTCAE. After radiotherapy completion, AEs will be assessed according to RTOG/EORTC Late Radiation Morbidity Scoring Schema
Bladder cancer failure-free (BCFF) rates2 yearsTo compare 2-year bladder cancer failure-free (BCFF) rates, defined as distant metastasis free survival (MFS) AND/OR locoregional failure (defined as in primary objective)
Median overall survival (OS)2 yearsTo compare median overall survival (OS) in patients with MIBC receiving or not receiving nivolumab in addition to chemoradiotherapy
Assessment of the effect of the combined treatment on the quality of life2 yearsQuality of life score assessed by Quality of Life of Cancer Patients Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30). Discomfort measured in a scale from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much) Overall health and quality of life score measured in a scale from 1 (very poor) to 7 (excellent)
