Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and tolerability of treatment with concurrent Sacituzumab Govitecan (SG) and adaptive radiation therapy. The main objective is to establish the safety, tolerability, and feasibility of bladder preservation therapy treatment with concurrent SG and adaptive image-guided radiation therapy for participants with localized MIBC. Participants will receive the study drug, SG, through an IV once weekly on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day treatment cycle. The first cycle of SG will begin 21 days prior to the scheduled start of radiation therapy. The second and third cycles of SG will be given while the participant is receiving radiation therapy. Participants will be asked to undergo computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pre-and post-treatment. Participation in the research will last up to 5 years, depending on treatment outcomes, with a treatment period of 8 weeks and a study follow-up period of up to 2-5 years thereafter, and a survival follow-up, with only phone call communication from years 3-5.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants must have histologically or cytologically confirmed muscle-invasivebladder cancer (MIBC) (T2-T4aN0M0). Participants with mixed urothelial carcinomawill be eligible for the trial, except for small cell or neuroendocrine component

  • Participants must have received no prior systemic chemotherapy for this disease.Participants must refuse conventional radio-sensitizing chemotherapy, (and/or) mustnot be eligible for or refuse cystectomy while on study Participants may receivecystectomy following the end of treatment (EOT)/ Safety Visit if deemed necessary bytheir clinical team while still in follow-up.

  • Performance status: ECOG Performance status ≤ 2

  • Participants must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:

  • Serum aspartate transaminase (AST; serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT]) and serum alanine transaminase (ALT; serum glutamic pyruvictransaminase [SGPT]) ≤ 2.5 x laboratory upper limit of normal (ULN)

  • Total serum bilirubin ≤ 2.0 x ULN

  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1500/μL

  • Platelets ≥ 100,000/μL

  • Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL

  • Serum calcium ≤ 12.0 mg/dL

  • Calculated Creatinine Clearance ≥ 30 mL/min. Calculated using Cockcroft-Gaultformula: Creatinine Clearance = [[140 - age(yr)] multiplied by bodyweight(kg)]/ [72 multiplied by serum Cr(mg/dL)] (multiply total by 0.85 forwomen).

  • Participants must have adequate baseline bladder function to warrant bladderpreservation as assessed by the treating provider, including absence of bilateralhydronephrosis or acute obstruction related to bladder tumor after TURBT. Unilateralhydronephrosis is permitted.

  • Participants must undergo a TURBT within ≤ 60 days prior to treatment start. In asituation where a participant is referred from an outside site to the ClevelandClinic Foundation, participant must have a repeat cystoscopy by the urologist whowill be following the participant on the clinical trial to assess the adequacy ofthe prior TURBT. Participant may then undergo repeat TURBT if deemed necessary asstandard of care by the treating urologist.

  • Participants may have either completely or partially resected tumors as long as thetreating urologist attempted maximal resection.

  • Participant must undergo radiological staging within 60 days prior to treatmentstart. Imaging of chest, abdomen, and pelvis must be performed using CT or MRI.Participants must not have evidence of T4b and/or N1-3 dT4bN1-3 disease. Eligibilityis based on review by Cleveland Clinic Foundation (CCF) radiology department and/orPI.

  • Participants must not have had urothelial carcinoma or any histological variant atany site outside of the urinary bladder within the previous 24 months exceptTa/T1/Carcinoma in situ (CIS) of the upper urinary tract including renal, pelvis,and ureter if the participant had undergone complete nephroureterectomy.

  • Participants must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign awritten informed consent document.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants receiving or utilizing any other investigational agents or devices.

  • Has received prior pelvic / local radiation therapy for MIBC or any other cancertype.

  • Has received any prior systemic treatment, chemoradiation, and / or radiationtherapy for MIBC or non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Note: Priortreatment for NMIBC with intravesical instillation therapy such as BCG orintravesical chemotherapy is permitted.

  • Has diagnosed Bilateral hydronephrosis.

  • Has limited bladder function as noted by a provider, with frequency of small amountsof urine, urinary incontinence including stress/urge, requires self-catheterizationor a permanent indwelling catheter.

  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical orbiologic composition to SG or any of its' components.

  • Participants with uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited toongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable anginapectoris, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situationsthat would limit compliance with study requirements.

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women are excluded from this study because SG andradiation effects during pregnancy have potential for teratogenic or abortifacienteffects. Because there is an unknown, but potential risk for adverse events innursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with SG, breastfeeding shouldbe discontinued if the mother is treated with Sacituzumab Govitecan.

  • Is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigationalagent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to the first doseof study intervention.

Note: Participants who have entered the Follow-up Phase of an investigational study may participate if it has been 4 weeks after the last dose of the previous investigational agent.

  • Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratoryabnormality that might confound the results of the study, interfere with theparticipant's participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in thebest interest of the participant to participate, in the opinion of the treatinginvestigator.

Study Description

Treatment patterns in the community demonstrate that a substantial proportion of participants with bladder cancer do not receive curative intent therapy, especially if unfit for or refuse radical cystectomy. Concurrent chemoradiation is an accepted alternative to radical cystectomy, however systemic radio sensitizing chemotherapy may have significant off target side effects. This study is investigating the concurrent administration of a bladder cancer targeted antibody drug conjugate with radiotherapy. Sacituzumab govitecan (SG), or IMMU-132 is an investigational new drug that utilizes an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) to target and kill epithelial bladder cancer cells. SG is experimental because it is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in this setting. The aim for this study is to establish the safety, tolerability, and feasibility of bladder preservation therapy treatment with concurrent SG and adaptive image-guided radiation therapy for platinum ineligible participants with localized MIBC.
