Description:
This phase Ib/II trial finds the best dose of selinexor and its effect with pembrolizumab in
treating patients with urothelial carcinoma that are not eligible to receive the chemotherapy
drug cisplatin, or have been given cisplatin and the cancer has gotten worse. Patients must
also have urothelial carcinoma that has spread locally, near where it started (locally
advanced), or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). Selinexor may stop the
growth of tumor cells by blocking a protein, called XPO1, that is needed for cell growth.
Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune
system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and
spread. Giving selinexor and pembrolizumab may kill more tumor cells.

Purpose
This phase Ib/II trial finds the best dose of selinexor and its effect with pembrolizumab in
treating patients with urothelial carcinoma that are not eligible to receive the chemotherapy
drug cisplatin, or have been given cisplatin and the cancer has gotten worse. Patients must
also have urothelial carcinoma that has spread locally, near where it started (locally
advanced), or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). Selinexor may stop the
growth of tumor cells by blocking a protein, called XPO1, that is needed for cell growth.
Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune
system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and
spread. Giving selinexor and pembrolizumab may kill more tumor cells.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of selinexor in combination with
standard-dose pembrolizumab in patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma who are
cisplatin-ineligible or platinum-refractory. (Phase Ib) II. To determine the objective
response rate (ORR) of selinexor in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced
urothelial carcinoma who are cisplatin-ineligible or platinum-refractory. (Phase II)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To further evaluate the toxicity profile of the combination of selinexor with
pembrolizumab in patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma.
II. To further evaluate the efficacy of the combination of selinexor with pembrolizumab in
patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma as defined by progression-free survival (PFS).
Trial Arms
Name | Type | Description | Interventions |

Treatment (selinexor, pembrolizumab) | Experimental | Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8 and 15, and pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Cycles repeat every 21 days for 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. | |
