Description:
The purpose of the study is to see if treatment with nivolumab plus bempeg or nivolumab
alone, before and after surgery to remove the bladder, is more effective than surgery alone
in participants with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who are not able to receive cisplatin
chemotherapy.
Title
- Brief Title: A Study of Nivolumab Plus Bempegaldesleukin (Bempeg/NKTR-214) vs Nivolumab Alone vs Standard of Care in Participants With Bladder Cancer That Has Invaded the Muscle Wall of the Bladder and Who Cannot Get Cisplatin, a Type of Medicine Given to Treat Bladder Cancer.
- Official Title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Study of Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant Nivolumab Plus NKTR-214, Versus Nivolumab Alone Versus Standard of Care in Participants With Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC) Who Are Cisplatin Ineligible

Purpose
The purpose of the study is to see if treatment with nivolumab plus bempeg or nivolumab
alone, before and after surgery to remove the bladder, is more effective than surgery alone
in participants with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who are not able to receive cisplatin
chemotherapy.
Trial Arms
Name | Type | Description | Interventions |
---|
Combination | Experimental | Neoadjuvant (pre-surgical treatment) nivolumab + bempeg, followed by radical cystectomy (RC), followed by adjuvant (post-surgical treatment) nivolumab + bempeg | |
Monotherapy | Experimental | Neoadjuvant nivolumab, followed by RC, followed by adjuvant nivolumab | |
Standard-of-care | Other | RC alone, without neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy | |
Eligibility Criteria

visit www.BMSStudyConnect.com
Inclusion Criteria:
- MIBC, clinical stage T2-T4a, N0, M0, diagnosed at transurethral resection of bladder
tumor (TURBT) and confirmed by radiographic imaging.
- Must be deemed eligible for Radical Cystectomy (RC) by urologist, and must agree to
undergo RC. For arms A and B, participants must agree to undergo RC after completion
of neoadjuvant therapy.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1
- Cisplatin-ineligible participants will be defined by any one of the following
criteria:
i) Impaired renal function (glomerular filtration rate [GFR] ≥ 30 but < 60 mL/min) ii)
GFR should be assessed by direct measurement (ie, creatinine clearance) or, if not
available, by calculation from serum/plasma creatinine (Cockcroft-Gault formula) iii)
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5, ≥ Grade 2 hearing
loss (assessed per local SOC).
iv) CTCAE version 5, ≥ Grade 2 peripheral neuropathy.
- Documented Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) more than 45%
- Women and men must agree to follow specific methods of contraception, if applicable
Exclusion Criteria:
- Clinical evidence of pathologic lymph node (LN) or metastatic bladder cancer.
- Prior systemic therapy, radiation therapy, or surgery for bladder cancer other than
TURBT or biopsies is not permitted. Prior Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) or other
intravesicular treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is permitted if
completed at least 6 weeks prior to initiating study treatment.
- Evidence of urothelial carcinoma (UC) in upper urinary tracts (ureters or renal
pelvis) or history of previous MIBC
- History of pulmonary embolism (PE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or prior clinically
significant venous or non-CVA(cerebrovascular accident)/TIA (Transient ischemic
attack) arterial thromboembolic event
Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria apply
