Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of avelumab in combination with other anti-tumor agents as a maintenance treatment in participants with bladder cancer.

Interventions

DRUGAvelumab

Participants will receive avelumab intravenous infusion at a dose of 800 milligrams (mg) once every 2 weeks (Q2W) until unacceptable toxicity, withdraw consent or initiation of a new treatment.

DRUGSacituzumab Govitecan

Participants will receive sacituzumab govitecan intravenous infusion at dose of 10 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) of body weight once a week (Q1W) on Day 1 and 8 of 21-day treatment cycles, in combination with avelumab 800 mg Q2W, until unacceptable toxicity, withdraw consent or initiation of a new treatment.

DRUGM6223

Participants will receive M6223 (anti-T cell-immuno-receptor with Ig and ITM domains \[anti-TIGIT\]) intravenous infusion at dose of 1600 mg Q2W in combination with avelumab 800 mg Q2W, until unacceptable toxicity, withdraw consent or initiation of a new treatment.

Participants will receive NKTR-255 intravenous infusion at a dose of 3 micrograms per kilogram body weight (mcg/kg) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) in combination with avelumab 800 mg Q2W, until unacceptable toxicity, withdraw consent or initiation of a new treatment.

Inclusion criteria

* Participants with histologically confirmed, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma. Both transitional cell and mixed transitional/non- transitional cell histologies are allowed, but transitional cell carcinoma must be the predominant histology * Participants has documented Stage IIIA/IIIB with N1-N3, or Stage IV disease (per American Joint Committee on Cancer/International Union for Cancer Control Tumor Node Metastasis system, 8th edition) at the start of first line chemotherapy. * The last dose of first line chemotherapy must have been received no less than 4 weeks, and no more than 10 weeks, prior to randomization in the present study * Estimated life expectancy of at least 3 months * Participants without progressive disease as per RECIST v1.1 guidelines following completion of 4 to 6 cycles of 1L chemotherapy. Eligibility based on this criterion will be determined by Investigator review of pre chemotherapy and post chemotherapy radiological assessments (CT/MRI scans). * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0 or 1 * Adequate hematological, hepatic, and renal function as defined in the protocol * Other protocol defined inclusion criteria could apply

Exclusion criteria

* Participants with prior immunotherapy with Interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-15, interferon alfa (IFN-α), or an anti programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1), anti programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), anti PD-L2, anti CD137, or cytotoxic T cell lymphocyte-4 (CTLA-4) antibody (including ipilimumab), anti TROP2, anti-T-cell-immuno-receptor with Ig and ITM domains (anti-TIGIT) any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T cell costimulation or immune checkpoint pathways, agents targeting Nectin-4, or any of the investigational drugs used in combination with avelumab. * Participants with active infection 48 hours before randomization requiring systemic therapy * Participants with known prior or suspected hypersensitivity to study drugs or any component in their formulations * Participants with prior adjuvant or neoadjuvant systemic therapy within 12 months of randomization * Participants with vaccination within 4 weeks of the first dose of study treatment and while on trial is prohibited except for administration of inactivated vaccines (for example, inactivated influenza vaccines) administered \>= 2 weeks prior first dose of study treatment. All severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines approved or authorized by local Health Authorities are allowed * Other protocol defined
