Atezolizumab With Platinum and Etoposide Chemotherapy Followed by Cystectomy for Patients With Localized Small Cell Neuroendocrine Bladder Cancer
Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins
Summary
This is a single arm, Phase II trial involving the use of atezolizumab plus platinum and etoposide for patients with locally advanced urothelial cancer. The primary goal of this trial is to assess the pathologic complete response rate at cystectomy in patients after being treated with a combination therapy of atezolizumab, platinum, and etoposide.
Description
The study population will include male and female patients over the age of 18 with invasive (cT1-cT4) small cell / neuroendocrine carcinoma of the bladder (MIBC), with or without urothelial cancer component, who are eligible for platinum based chemotherapy and immunotherapy. All patients will be fit to undergo surgical resection of their cancer by cystectomy. Patients with resectable N1 disease within the true pelvis are eligible. Participants will receive: Atezolizumab 1,200 mg IV Day 1 Etoposide 100 mg/m2 IV on Days 1-3 Carboplatin AUC 5 IV on Day 1 or Cisplatin 70 mg/m2 IV on Day 1 (Patie…
