Study Summary

This trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of a new drug combination for people with urothelial cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer, specifically transitional cell carcinoma. Participants must have measurable disease and no prior systemic therapy for metastatic disease (or are cisplatin-ineligible). They should not have received certain treatments recently and must have adequate kidney function.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety, tolerability, and optimal dosing of erdafitinib alone or combined with cetrelimab and platinum-based chemotherapy (cisplatin or carboplatin) in patients. It aims to find the best dose for Phase 2 trials and assess how well these combinations work against this type of cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to immune system activation such as skin rash, fatigue, digestive issues like nausea or diarrhea; liver enzyme changes; potential kidney function alteration; blood count variations that could lead to anemia or increased infection risk.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase 2: Dose ExpansionExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
The participants will be randomized in a 1:1 manner to receive either erdafitinib alone (orally) or the identified RP2D of Phase 1b for erdafitinib (orally) in combination with cetrelimab (IV).
Group II: Phase 1b: Dose EscalationExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Two dosing cohorts (erdafitinib and cetrelimab; and erdafitinib, cetrelimab and cisplatin/carboplatin) are explored in Phase 1b of the study. Participants will receive erdafitinib orally followed by cetrelimab intravenously (IV) and carboplatin/cisplatin IV as a part of platinum chemotherapy. The dose levels will be escalated sequentially based on the decisions of the Study Evaluation Team (SET) until the recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) has been identified.
