Triple Therapy for Bladder Cancer
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This is a Phase 2 open-label, single-arm trial for patients with MTAP-deficient advanced urothelial cancer who had received prior immunotherapy. This is a single site study at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. This study will allow patients in second line of treatment for advanced urothelial ca or beyond. All patients must have been previously treated with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy as per current standard of care.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial requires that you stop taking certain medications that could interact with the study drugs. Specifically, you must not have taken certain drugs like BCRP substrates, P-gp substrates, strong CYP3A4 inducers, and inhibitors within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives of the drug before starting the trial. It's best to discuss your current medications with the study team to see if any need to be stopped.
Is the triple therapy for bladder cancer safe for humans?
What makes the drug combination of Etrumadenant, Pemetrexed, and Zimberelimab unique for bladder cancer?
This drug combination is unique because it includes Etrumadenant, a novel agent not typically used in standard bladder cancer treatments, alongside Pemetrexed and Zimberelimab, which may offer a new approach by combining chemotherapy with targeted therapy and immunotherapy, potentially improving efficacy and reducing toxicity compared to traditional regimens.13678
