Brief summary

This is a pre-surgical study involving subjects with local advanced bladder cancer, who are candidates for neoadjuvant therapy. It is a single-arm phase II portion.

Detailed description

Outline: This study is a single-arm, open, exploratory clinical trial; Subjects receive: gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 IV Day1 and Day8 every 21 days repeated for 4 cycles; cisplatin 35mg/m2 IV Day1 and Day2 every 21 days, repeated for 4 cycles. Toripalimab at recommended phase II dose is given every 3 weeks for 4 doses starting with Cycle1 Day1(C1D1). Subjects will then have surgery to remove their primary tumor within 6 weeks after their last dose of neoadjuvant therapy. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status: 0-1 Demonstrate adequate organ function as defined by the following laboratory values at study entry. All screening labs should be performed within 28 days of C1D1. Hematopoetic: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1,500 /mcL Absolute lymphocyte count ≥350 mcL Platelets ≥100,000 / mcL Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL or ≥5.6 mmol/L Renal: Measured or calculated creatinine clearance ≥30 mL/min Hepatic: Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.25 X ULN OR ≤ 2.5 x ULN for subjects with Gilbert's disease Aspartate aminotransferase (AST, SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT, SGPT) ≤ 2 X ULN Coagulation: International Normalized Ratio (INR) or Prothrombin Time (PT) ≤1.5 X ULN unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or PTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) ≤1.5 X ULN unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy and as long as PT or PTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Pathological response rate evaluated after 4 cycles of neoadjuvant Toripalimab in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin at time of radical cystectomy, each cycle is 21 daysUp to 90 days after last dose of investigation productthe absence of residual muscle invasive bladder cancer in surgical specimens of cystectomy (pathologically decreased to ≤pT1N0, including pT0, pT1, pTa and pTis

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Safety assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version (v.) 4 criteriaFrom the first day of the treatment to the end of neoadjuvant treatment, assessed up to 6 monthTo assess safety of Toripalimab in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients with bladder cancer according to CTCAE v4 criteria
Progression-free survival assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v 1.1From the start of neoadjuvant therapy to the time when any disease progression is first recorded. Assessed lasted for 24 months, calculated from the date of enrolledFrom the start of neoadjuvant therapy to the time when any disease progression is first recorded, disease progression includes the progression detected by clinical or imaging before cystectomy, as well as the distant metastasis or pelvic recurrence after cystectomy. Newly discovered primary tumors in other parts of the urinary tract such as renal pelvis, ureter and urethra are not considered as disease progression.
Tumor immune microenvironment indicators assessed by Microenvironment Analysis PanelAssessed lasted for 24 months, calculated from the date of enrolledThe expression rate of PDL1 in pathological specimens assessed by Burning Rock's product OncoScreen plus+Microenvironment Analysis Panel at the time of surgery
