IMvigor130 Trial Summary

This trial is testing atezolizumab, a new type of immunotherapy, to see if it can help treat people with urothelial cancer that has not yet been treated.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with untreated advanced urothelial carcinoma, who haven't had chemotherapy for this condition and are eligible to receive platinum-based chemotherapy. They must have measurable disease, agree to use effective contraception, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. Prior local treatments are okay if completed at least 4 weeks before the study starts.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Atezolizumab alone and combined with platinum-based chemotherapy (Carboplatin or Cisplatin) plus Gemcitabine against just the chemotherapy in patients with advanced bladder cancer. It's a Phase III trial where participants are randomly assigned to different treatment groups.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Atezolizumab can cause immune-related side effects like inflammation of organs, infusion reactions, fatigue, infections; Chemotherapy may lead to nausea, hair loss, blood cell count changes increasing infection risk.

"Unfortunately, this particular study is no longer recruiting patients. The listing was created on June 30th, 2016 but was last updated on October 13th, 20222. However, there are presently 2586 studies actively searching for patients with carcinoma and 1718 studies for Atezolizumab actively enrolling participants."

Answered by AI

What are some of the primary conditions that Atezolizumab has been shown to improve?

"Atezolizumab is often used to treat patients that have received adjuvant anthracycline-containing therapy in the past. However, this medication can also help those struggling with advanced endometrial cancer, melanoma, and metastatic ureter urothelial carcinoma."

Answered by AI

In how many different medical care facilities is this research project being conducted today?

"There are 27 sites running this clinical trial, including Florida Cancer Specialists (St. Petersburg - St. Anthony's Professional Building) in Saint Petersburg, Sarah Cannon Cancer Center in Germantown, and Parkview Research Center in Fort Wayne, as well as 24 other locations."

Answered by AI

Could you tell me if Atezolizumab has been used in other research projects?

"Atezolizumab was first studied over 20 years ago, in 1997. To date, there have been over 20,000 completed trials. There are 1,718 live studies being conducted currently, many of which are based in Saint Petersburg, Florida."
