RC48 Combined with Toripalimab As Neoadjuvant Therapy for Cisplatin Ineligible MIBC Patients

Perioperative Efficacy of RC48 Combined with Toripalimab in Treatment of Cisplatin Ineligible MIBC

A single-arm, prospective, exploratory clinical trial to explore the pathological complete response (pCR) rate of immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with antibody conjugate drugs as the perioperative treatment of platinum-intolerant bladder cancer patients. Fifty-five patients with clinically or pathologically confirmed muscle-invasive bladder urothelial carcinoma (MIBC) who were ineligible for cisplatin-based chemotherapy or refused cisplatin-based chemotherapy were enrolled. Each subject will receive RC48-ADC and toripalimab intravenously every 2 weeks for a total of 4 cycles before surgery, 8 cycles after surgery. The efficacy was evaluated and followed up after 4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy, 3 months postoperative, and every 3-6 months thereafter. The primary endpoint of this study was pathological complete response rate (pCR). The secondary endpoints were to explore the safety, disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) of RC48 combined with toripalimab neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical cystectomy.

Detailed Description

This study was a single-arm, prospective, exploratory clinical trial to explore the pathological complete response (pCR) rate of immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with antibody conjugate drugs as the perioperative treatment of platinum-intolerant bladder cancer patients. Fifty-five patients with clinically or pathologically confirmed muscle-invasive bladder urothelial carcinoma (MIBC) who were ineligible for cisplatin-based chemotherapy or refused cisplatin-based chemotherapy were enrolled. Each subject will receive RC48-ADC 2.0mg/kg and toripalimab 3.0mg/kg intravenously every 2 weeks for a total of 4 cycles before surgery. RC48-ADC 2.0mg/kg and toripalimab 3.0mg/kg were intravenously infused every 2 weeks for 8 cycles after surgery. The efficacy was evaluated and followed up after 4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy, 3 months postoperative, and every 3-6 months thereafter. The primary endpoint of this study was pathological complete response rate (pCR). The secondary endpoints were to explore the safety, disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) of RC48 combined with toripalimab neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical cystectomy. In the process of research, plasma and tumor tissues need to be obtained for proteomics and genomics analysis to explore the relationship between potential predictive biomarkers and efficacy.

Eligibility Criteria

• Ages Eligible for Study: Adult; Older Adult
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers: No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Voluntarily agree to provide written informed consent.
2. Male or female, aged ≥18 years old.

3. Patients must be ineligible for cisplatin-based chemotherapy or refuse cisplatin-based chemotherapy because of any of the following:

   Creatinine clearance (CrCl) <60 mL/min, ECOG performance status (PS) 0-1 Creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥ 60 mL/min, ECOG PS 2 (if the patient is eligible for RC) Hearing impairment ≥ CTCAE level 2 According to CTCAE criteria, neuropathy was ≥ grade 2 The patient declined cisplatin-based chemotherapy

4. Patients must be medically suitable for TURBT and RC.
5. Pathological examination and immunohistochemical Her-2 (≥1+)

8. All female subjects will be considered to be of reproductive potential unless they are postmenopausal or have been surgically sterilized. Female subjects of childbearing potential had to consent to the use of highly effective contraception. Male subjects of childbearing potential and their female partners had to consent to the use of highly effective contraception.
9. Be willing to comply with the study access schedule and the prohibitions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

Exclusion Criteria:

7. diagnosed as HBsAg, HBcAb positive and HBV DNA copy positive, or HCVAb positive.
8. there is history or current evidence of any condition, treatment, or laboratory abnormality that the treatment investigator believes may confound the trial results, interfere with the participant's participation throughout the trial, or be inconsistent with the participant's participation.
9. history of other malignancies within the past 5 years.
10. known central nervous system metastases
11. uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes, interstitial lung disease, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
