Brief Summary

STAR-EV will evaluate the combination of enfortumab vedotin plus radiotherapy (RT) as neoadjuvant treatment for bladder cancer prior to radical cystectomy surgery. The study will use "dose escalation" to evaluate the safety and efficacy of study treatment at three dose regimens: Level 0: EV treatment followed by RT to the bladder Level 1: EV treatment with RT starting on Cycle 2, Day 15 Level 2: EV treatment with RT starting on Cycle 1, Day 15 Following completion of EV+RT neoadjuvant therapy, all subjects will undergo surgery as part of routine care.

Conditions

Bladder Cancer

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) Regimen

  A standard 3 + 3 dose escalation schedule will be used for all escalations. Enfortumab Vedotin will be given for three 21 day cycles. Radiation therapy will be administered at dose level 0, level 1 or level 2.

  From initiation of Enfortuman Vedotin treatment until post neoadjuvant therapy visit (approximately 120 days)

• Pathologic Complete response rate at radical cystectomy

  Rate of complete pathologic response in bladder tumor biopsy at cystectomy according to postsurgical staging.

  At radical cystectomy following completion of neoadjuvant therapy (approximately 6 weeks after completion of EV treatment)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Adverse Events

  From initiation of neoadjuvant therapy to completion of final post treatment study visit (approximately 4 months)

• Rate of pathologic downstaging in the bladder

  At radical cystectomy following completion of neoadjuvant therapy (approximately 6 weeks after completion of EV treatment)

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• Urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder stage cT1-4a (AJCC 8th edition) N0M0 planned for radical cystectomy.
• For cR1 staged patients. the patient must have high grade disease AND be appropriate for cystectomy.
• Mixed cell types with variant histologies (including squamous, plasmacytoid, adenocarcinoma, sarcomatoid, micropapillary, nested, and lipid cell variants) are allowed as long as any urothelial histology is present (i.e. -not 100% variant histology). Small cell/neuroendocrine component is excluded.
• Age \>=18.
• Performance status Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 0-1
• Adequate organ and marrow function as defined below:
• Hematologic:
• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>=1500/mm3
• Platelet count \>=100x109/L
• Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL
• Hepatic:
• Serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) or ≤ 3 × ULN for subjects with Gilbert's disease
• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 × ULN
• Renal:
• No end stage renal disease requiring dialysis allowed

You may not qualify if:

• No prior systemic therapy (except prior therapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer \>12 prior to registration) for bladder cancer or prior pelvic radiotherapy. Prior intra-vesical therapies are allowed, including Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Prior chemotherapy for other cancers is allowed if given \>=1 year prior to study registration.
• Baseline \>= Grade 2 sensory or motor neuropathy
• Subjects may not be receiving any other investigational agents for the treatment of the cancer under study.
• History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to enfortumab vedotin or other agents used in study.
• Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that, in the opinion of the investigator, would limit compliance with study requirements.
• Subjects must not be pregnant or nursing due to the potential for congenital abnormalities and the potential of this regimen to harm nursing infants.
