Study Summary

This trial is testing the best dose of selinexor to give in combination with pembrolizumab to see how well it works in treating patients with urothelial carcinoma that cannot receive cisplatin or have disease that has gotten worse after treatment with cisplatin.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults with advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who can't take cisplatin due to health issues like kidney dysfunction, nerve damage, hearing loss, or have already tried it without success. They should be relatively healthy otherwise and willing to use effective birth control if they can have children.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The trial is testing the combination of Selinexor, which blocks a protein needed by cancer cells to grow, and Pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy that helps the immune system fight cancer. It aims to find the best dose of Selinexor and see how well it works with Pembrolizumab in patients who are ineligible for cisplatin or whose cancer has worsened after using it.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Selinexor may cause fatigue, nausea, weight loss, low blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems. Pembrolizumab might lead to immune-related side effects such as inflammation in various organs including lungs and intestines.
