Brief Summary

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

This phase Ib trial will investigate the effect of N-803 in combination with pembrolizumab and enfortumab vedotin in treating participants with urothelial cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To assess the safety and tolerability of the treatment regimen (N-803, enfortumab vedotin, and pembrolizumab).

II. To assess 12-month progression-free survival (PFS) of participants with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) receiving enfortumab vedotin (EV) plus pembrolizumab and N-803.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To evaluate the preliminary efficacy of the treatment regimen (EV, pembrolizumab, and N-803) as measured by complete response rate (CRR), objective response rate (ORR), clinical benefit rate (CBR), 12-month overall survival (12-OS), median duration of response (mDOR), median progression-free survival (mPFS) and median overall survival (mOS).

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the immune status of the tumor microenvironment using multiplex immunohistochemistry (IHC) and identify potential correlations with participant outcomes.

II. To determine T-cell receptor (TCR) clonality.

III. To analyze tumor/immune gene expression profiles, DNA methylation, DNA damage response and repair (DDR) genes \[e.g., BRCA1/2, ERCC1/2\]).

IV. Observe changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).

V. To monitor the maintenance of absolute lymphocyte counts (ALC) relative to baseline, throughout the course of treatment.

OUTLINE:

This is an open-label, single center, phase Ib single-arm trial with a safety lead-in cohort. Participants will receive treatment for up to 12 cycles administered. Depending on response, participants may continue treatment with pembrolizumab and N-803 for maximum of 2 years. Participants will undergo safety follow-up approximately 30 days following the end of study treatment and be followed for survival until death (any cause) or end of study for a up to 5 years from start of treatment.

Study Groups

Treatment (EV, N-803, pembrolizumab)

Participants with unresectable locally advanced (LA) or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) will receive N-803 plus Enfortumab Vedotin (EV) and Pembrolizumab on Day 1 and EV on Day 8 in a repeated 3-week cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. EV treatment is provided up to 12 cycles. Participants with confirmed clinical benefit based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1) at the second or third scan (between 8 to 12 cycles on treatment) will discontinue EV treatment at investigator discretion. After participants discontinue EV treatment, participants may continue to receive N-803 and Pembrolizumab treatment up to 2 years.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Age ≥ 18 years
2. Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced (LA)/ metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC), including UC originating from the renal pelvis, ureters, bladder, or urethra. Mixed-cell type tumors are eligible as long as \> 50% urothelial component is present (mixed histology other than small cell/ neuroendocrine are allowed).
3. No prior systemic treatment for LA/mUC.
4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) \<= 2.
5. Measurable disease according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v) 1.1.
6. Prior perioperative systemic therapy including neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and EV is allowed if treatment was completed \> 12 months before trial enrollment.
7. Participants enrolling in the trial must agree with discontinuing EV upon demonstrating confirmed CR/PR/SD at the second or third scan timepoint on treatment (after 5.5 to 8 months of intended EV treatment).
8. Leukocytes ≥ 3,000/microliter (uL).
9. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/uL.
10. Platelets ≥ 100,000/uL.
11. Total bilirubin \< 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) (if previously abnormal due to non-malignant causes such as Gilbert's disease bilirubin ≤ 2 x ULN will be permitted.)
12. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)(serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT))/alanine aminotransferase (ALT)(serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT)) ≤ 2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN).
