Symptoms may include dysuria, urgency, frequency, and/or systemic symptoms such as fever, chills, elevated white blood cell, and/or abdominal/flank pain. Participants free from symptoms for 7 days with no culture evidence of ≥ 10^5 CFUs may be eligible

Use of immunosuppressive medications for the management of immune related adverse events, infusion related reactions, or in participants with contrast allergies is acceptable. Use of inhaled, topical, and intranasal corticosteroids are permitted
