Study Summary

This trial will test whether adding vactosertib to durvalumab will improve response rates in patients with urothelial cancers who haven't responded to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced urothelial bladder cancer that didn't respond to previous anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatments. Participants must be relatively healthy (ECOG 0 or 1), have a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks, and weigh over 30 kg. They should not have other cancers, serious illnesses like heart failure, active infections including hepatitis B/C or HIV, unresolved toxic effects from past cancer therapy (except hair loss or skin changes), or a history of organ transplant.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the combination of vactosertib with durvalumab in patients whose urothelial carcinoma has not improved after treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. It's an open-label Phase 2 trial aiming to see if this combo can increase the overall response rate—meaning it helps reduce the size of tumors.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune-related reactions such as inflammation in various organs, fatigue, digestive issues like nausea and diarrhea, skin problems like rash and itching, potential liver function changes, and increased risk for infections due to immune system suppression.
