Study Summary

This trial found that enfortumab vedotin significantly improves overall survival compared to chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer who have previously been treated with a checkpoint inhibitor and a platinum-containing regimen. They must not be candidates for curative surgery, have acceptable organ function, agree to contraception if of childbearing potential, and cannot be breastfeeding or pregnant. Exclusions include certain preexisting conditions like neuropathy Grade ≥2, recent other cancers, active infections requiring systemic treatment, specific viral infections (HIV/Hepatitis B/C), recent cardiovascular events, untreated brain metastases among others.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness of Enfortumab Vedotin compared to standard chemotherapy drugs (Docetaxel, Vinflunine, Paclitaxel) in improving overall survival rates for patients with urothelial cancer. It also examines progression-free survival rates, response rates to treatment according to RECIST V1.1 criteria and evaluates safety/tolerability along with quality of life outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Enfortumab Vedotin may cause side effects such as fatigue; skin reactions; neuropathy; blood sugar changes; gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea or diarrhea; liver enzyme elevations; low blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems. Chemotherapy can cause similar issues plus hair loss and an increased chance of developing long-term health problems.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Cross-over Extension (COE)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Eligible participants from chemotherapy arm who met the criteria for COE will receive 1.25 mg/kg of body weight enfortumab vedotin by intravenous infusion over approximately 30 minutes on days 1, 8 and 15 of every 28-day cycle until discontinuation criteria is met.
Group II: Arm A: Enfortumab Vedotin 1.25 mg/kgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants received 1.25 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) of body weight enfortumab vedotin by intravenous infusion over approximately 30 minutes on days 1, 8 and 15 of every 28-day cycle. Participants received study treatment until radiological disease progression as determined per investigator assessment or other discontinuation criteria were met or upon study termination, or study completion, whichever occurred first.
Group III: Arm B: ChemotherapyActive Control3 Interventions
Participants received either 75 milligrams per square meter (mg/m^2) docetaxel by IV infusion over approximately 1 hour or 320 mg/m^2 vinflunine by IV infusion over approximately 20 minutes or 175 mg/m^2 paclitaxel by IV infusion over approximately 1 hour on day 1 of every 21-day cycle. Participants received study treatment until radiological disease progression as determined per investigator assessment or other discontinuation criteria were met or upon study termination, or study completion, whichever occurred first.
