Brief summary
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, open-label study evaluating the safety and efficacy of trilaciclib administered with platinum-based chemotherapy followed by trilaciclib administered with avelumab maintenance therapy compared with platinum-based chemotherapy followed by avelumab maintenance therapy in participants receiving first-line treatment for advanced/metastatic urothelial carcinoma.
Detailed description
Participants will be randomly assigned (1:1) to receive standard of care platinum-based chemotherapy (with or without the addition of trilaciclib) administered intravenously (IV) in 21-day cycles followed by standard of care avelumab maintenance therapy (with or without the addition of trilaciclib) administered IV in 14-day cycles. Participants enrolled in the study will be eligible to receive 4-6 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy, and participants without progressive disease (PD) as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 guidelines (i.e., with an ongoing complete response \[CR\], partial response \[PR\], or stable disease \[SD\]) after platinum-based chemotherapy will be eligible to receive avelumab maintenance therapy until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, Investigator decision, or the end of the trial, whichever comes first. Participants will be followed for survival approximately every 3 months after receiving the last dose of study medication.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Age ≥18 years 2. Histologically documented, locally advanced (T4b, any N; or any T, N 2-3) or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (M1, Stage IV) (also termed Transitional cell carcinoma \[TCC\] or Urothelial cell carcinoma \[UCC\] of the urinary tract; including renal pelvis, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra) 1. Participants with mixed histologies are required to have a dominant transitional cell pattern (small cell carcinoma of any proportion is not allowed) 2. Locally advanced bladder cancer must be inoperable on the basis of involvement of pelvic sidewall or adjacent viscera (clinical Stage T4b) or bulky nodal metastasis (N2-N3) 3. Measurable disease as defined by RECIST v1.1 a.

Considered to be eligible to receive platinum-based chemotherapy and avelumab maintenance therapy, in the Investigator's judgment 5. No prior systemic therapy in the inoperable, locally advanced, or metastatic setting including chemotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy, targeted therapy, or investigational agents 1. For participants who received prior adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy for urothelial carcinoma, a treatment-free interval \> 12 months between the last treatment administration and the date of recurrence is required in order to be considered treatment-naïve in the metastatic setting. If a participant received adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemoradiation for urothelial carcinoma, a treatment-free interval \>12 months between last platinum dose and the date of recurrence is required. 2. For participants who received prior Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) therapy in the adjuvant/neoadjuvant setting, a treatment-free interval \> 3 months between the last dose of ICI and date of recurrence is required. 3. Prior local intravesical chemotherapy or immunotherapy is allowed if completed ≥4 weeks prior to the initiation of study treatment 6. A formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue block (75-micron) or at least 15 (5-micron) unstained slides from archival or fresh tumor biopsy or resection; the most recent biopsy tissue preferred. Participants who have fewer than 15 unstained slides available at baseline (but no fewer than 10) may be eligible following discussion with the Medical Monitor. 1. Tumor tissue should be of good quality based on total and viable tumor content. For core-needle biopsy specimens, at least three cores should be submitted for evaluation. 2. Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) specimens must contain a muscle -invasive component (i.e., T2 or greater) of the bladder tumor as verified by local pathology review.

An archival specimen, if available, should also be submitted. 3. Participants who do not have tissue specimens that meet eligibility requirements may undergo a biopsy during the screening period. Acceptable samples include core needle biopsies for deep tumor tissue (minimum three cores) or excisional, incisional, punch, or forceps biopsies for cutaneous, subcutaneous, or mucosal lesions. 4. Tumor tissue from bone metastases is not evaluable for programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression and is therefore not acceptable. 7.
