Adults over 18 with advanced bladder cancer that hasn't spread after initial chemo can join this trial. They need to have finished 4-6 cycles of platinum-based chemo, be in stable condition or responding well to treatment, and have good organ function. Pregnant women can't participate, and those who can have children must use effective birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a combination of avelumab (an immunotherapy drug) and lurbinectedin as maintenance therapy for patients whose bladder cancer didn't worsen after first-line chemotherapy. It's not randomized; all participants receive the same treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Avelumab may cause immune-related side effects like skin reactions, thyroid issues, or inflammation in organs such as lungs or intestines. Lurbinectedin could lead to blood cell count changes, fatigue, liver enzyme alterations, nausea or vomiting.
