Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Event-free Survival (EFS) is defined as the time from randomization to either
the time of the first recurrence of high-grade disease progression, or death
due to any cause, whichever occurs first. For participants with Carcinoma In-
situ (CIS), persistent disease at 6 months (Week 24) is also considered an EFS
event. Progression is defined as: an increase of stage from Ta to T1 or from
CIS to T1 or progression to muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) (T greater
than or equal to [>=] 2) or to lymph node (N+) or to distant disease (M+),
whichever occurs first.
Secondary outcome
* Overall Complete Response (CR) Rate: Overall CR will be measured by
determining the percentage of participants with CIS who have no presence of
high- grade disease at 6 months.
* Duration of CR: Duration of CR is defined from the time of first CR achieved
to first evidence of recurrence, progression or death due to any cause
(whichever occurs first) for participants who achieve a CR.
* Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS): RFS is defined as the time from randomization
to the time of the first recurrence of high-grade disease, or
death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
* Time to Progression (TTP): TTP is defined as the time from randomization to
the date of first documented evidence of disease progression or death due to
disease progression, whichever occurs first.
* Overall Survival (OS): OS is defined as the time from randomization to death,
due to any cause.
* Cancer Specific Survival (CSS): CSS is defined as the time from randomization
to the date of death due to bladder cancer.
* Frequency and grade of AE's, according to Common Terminology Criteria for
Adverse Events (CTCAE)
* Change from baseline and time to symptom deterioration in EORTC-QLQ-NMIBC24
(European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of life
Questionnaire - Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer 24)
Background summary
Bladder cancer is the tenth most common malignancy worldwide. About 75 percent
(%) of bladder cancers are non-muscle invasive at diagnosis with approximately
25% of NMIBC patients have HR, NMIBC. The TAR- 200/gemcitabine (JNJ-17000139)
product is an intravesical drug delivery system regulated as an investigational
drug. The drug constituent consists of gemcitabine and osmotic minitablets.
Cetrelimab (JNJ-63723283) is a fully human immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) kappa
monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds programmed-cell death protein (PD)-1. The
mainstay of treatment for HR-NMIBC is transurethral resection of bladder tumor,
followed by intravesical treatment with BCG. In this study metronomic dosing of
intravesical gemcitabine, delivered via TAR-200, alone or in combination with
cetrelimab will be evaluated and compared against intravesical BCG. The study
consists of a Screening phase, Treatment phase, and Follow-up phase. The total
duration of the study will be up to 5 years and 2 months. Efficacy, Safety,
pharmacokinetics (PK), and biomarkers will be assessed at specific time points
during the study.
Study objective
This study has been transitioned to CTIS with ID 2023-507187-39-00 check the CTIS register for the current data.
The purpose of this study is to compare event-free survival (EFS) in
participants with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG)-naive high-risk non-muscle
invasive bladder cancer (HR-NMIBC), including high-grade papillary Ta, any T1,
or carcinoma in situ (CIS), between TAR-200 plus cetrelimab (Group A) and
TAR-200 alone (Group C) versus intravesical BCG (Group B).
The secondary objectives are:
* BCG-naïve CIS patients (Group A and Group C versus Group B): compare overall
complete response (CR) rate and duration of CR
* BCG-naïve HR-NMIBC high-grade papillary Ta or any T1 patients (Group A and
Group C versus Group B): compare recurrence-free survival (RFS)
* compare following parameters in participants with BCG-naïve HR-NMIBC,
high-grade papillary Ta or any T1 or CIS (Group A and Group C versus Group B):
- Time to progression
- Overall survival
- Cancer specific survival
- safety and tolerability
- health-related quality of life
Study design
An Open-Label, Randomized Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of TAR-200
in Combination with Cetrelimab or TAR-200 Alone Versus Intravesical Bacillus
Calmette-Guérin (BCG) in Participants with BCG-naïve High-Risk Non-Muscle
Invasive Bladder Cancer.
Treatment Group A: TAR-200 + Cetrelimab.
Treatment Group C: TAR-200.
Treatment Group B: Bacillus Calmette- Guerin (BCG) Vesiculture.
Intervention
Treatment Group A: intravesical TAR-200 + i.v. Cetrelimab. Participants will
have visits every 3 weeks for the first 51 weeks, then every 12 weeks through
week 96.
Treatment Group C: intravesical TAR-200. Participants will have visits every 3
weeks for the first 24 weeks, then every 12 weeks through week 96.
Treatment Group B: Bacillus Calmette- Guerin (BCG) Vesiculture. Participants
will receive intravesical BCG once every week for 6 weeks (induction) and then
followed by once every week for 3 weeks starting at Weeks 12, 24, 48, 72, and
96 (maintenance).
