Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a single arm Phase II study with a safety run-in to identify the recommended phase II dose of the combination therapy of atezolizumab and guadecitabine. Patients with recurrent/advanced urothelial carcinoma (stage IV) who had previously progressed on check-point inhibitor therapy with PD-1 or PD-L1 targeting agents are eligible for this study. After a dose that is safe and tolerable has been established, a dose expansion phase (Phase II) will begin. This study will enroll a total of 4 to 53 patients depending upon the number of patients treated in the safety run-in phase and the number of subjects replaced during the phase II portion.

9. Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent and HIPAA consent document
10. Women of child bearing potential and men must agree to remain abstinent or use adequate contraception (failure rate \<1%) for the duration of study and for 90 days after the completion of the therapy.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Patients who have had anti-cancer therapy within 2 weeks prior to entering the study.
2. Patients receiving any other investigational agents
3. Patients with active or untreated CNS disease. Patients previously treated for CNS disease must be asymptomatic and must not be using steroids for at least 4 weeks prior to starting the study treatment.
4. Patients with active auto-immune disease requiring immunosuppressive medication.
5. Patients treated with systemic immunostimulatory agents (such as interferons, IL 12) within 6 weeks of the start of the treatment or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is shorter.
6. Treatment with systemic corticosteroids within 2 weeks prior to the start of the treatment. Patients that require inhaled or low-dose corticosteroids for COPD or asthma, mineralocorticoids are allowed.
7. Patients with active malignancies in addition to urothelial carcinoma.
8. Patients with prior treatment with hypomethylating agents.
9. History of leptomeningeal disease
10. Prior allogeneic stem cell or solid organ transplant.
11. Uncontrolled effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites requiring recurrent drainage procedures (once monthly or more frequently)
12. Uncontrolled symptomatic hypercalcemia (\>1.5mmol/L ionized calcium or calcium \> 12mg/dl or corrected serum calcium \> ULN)
13. Mean QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) ≥ 470ms calculated from 3 ECGs using Frediricia's correction.
14. Any prior Grade ≥3 immune-related adverse event (irAE) while receiving any previous immunotherapy agent, or any unresolved irAE \>Grade 1 except for endocrine AEs managed with replacement therapy. Any other AEs unresolved toxicities grade 2 or more from previous anti-cancer therapy, except alopecia, peripheral neuropathy or non-clinically significant lab abnormalities.
15. Receipt of therapeutic oral or IV antibiotics within 2 weeks prior to the start of the study treatment.

19. Active tuberculosis
20. Known hypersensitivity to Chinese hamster ovary cell products or any of the study drugs.
21. Administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks of the start of treatment or anticipation that such a live, attenuated vaccine will be required during the study.
22. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
23. Known HIV-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible.
