Evaluation of NanoDoce® in Participants With Urothelial Carcinoma

July 20, 2023 updated by: NanOlogy, LLC

Phase 1/2 Trial Evaluating the Safety and Tolerability of NanoDoce® Injection and Intravesical Instillation in Subjects With Urothelial Carcinoma

This is a clinical trial studying the administration of NanoDoce as a direct injection to the bladder wall immediately after tumor resection and as an intravesical instillation. All participants will receive NanoDoce, and will be evaluated for safety and tolerability, as well as the potential effects of NanoDoce on urothelial carcinoma.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In this clinical trial, subjects with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) or muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), will receive NanoDoce. Subjects will be stratified into two treatment groups, Group 1 (NMIBC) and Group 2 (MIBC). All subjects will receive NanoDoce injected into the index tumor resection site on the bladder wall, immediately following transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT), followed by an initial NanoDoce intravesical instillation.

Once the TURBT resection site is healed (approximately 1 month), Group 1 (NMIBC) subjects will proceed to a 3-month Induction period (6 weekly NanoDoce intravesical instillations, followed by 6 weeks of rest). After the Induction period, following confirmation of non-recurrence, Group 1 subjects will proceed to a 3-month Maintenance period (3 weekly NanoDoce intravesical instillations, followed by 9 weeks of rest).

After NanoDoce direct injection and the initial intravesical instillation, Group 2 subjects will proceed to institutional standard of care and will not receive Induction or Maintenance intravesical instillations.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
Subjects will be enrolled in sequential, dose escalating cohorts of NanoDoce direct injection (0.75, 1.5, 2.5, or 3.75 mg/mL). Subjects will also receive an initial NanoDoce intravesical instillation at 2.0 or 3.0 mg/mL and additional Induction (6 weekly NanoDoce intravesical instillations, followed by 6 weeks of rest) and Maintenance (3 weekly NanoDoce intravesical instillations, followed by 9 weeks of rest) instillations at 2.0 or 3.0 mg/mL.
Subjects will receive NanoDoce injected into the index tumor resection site on the bladder wall, immediately following transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT)
Other Names:
  • docetaxel; large surface area microparticle docetaxel
All subjects will receive an initial intravesical instillation within 2 hours of direct injection.
Other Names:
  • docetaxel; large surface area microparticle docetaxel
Group 1 (NMIBC) will receive intravesical instillations in an Induction Period and a Maintenance Period.
Other Names:
  • docetaxel; large surface area microparticle docetaxel
Experimental: Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
Subjects will be enrolled in sequential, dose escalating cohorts of NanoDoce direct injection (0.75, 1.5, 2.5, or 3.75 mg/mL). Subjects will also receive an initial NanoDoce intravesical instillation at 2.0 or 3.0 mg/mL. Subjects will then go on to receive institutional standard of care.
