Efficacy and Safety of Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in Combination With Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) in High-Risk Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (HR NMIBC) (MK-3475-676/KEYNOTE-676)
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Pembrolizumab: Pembrolizumab IV infusion of 200 mg Q3W for BCG Post-Induction Cohort (Cohort A), or IV infusion of 400 mg Q6W for BCG Naïve Cohort (Cohort B), according to randomization
BCG: BCG (intravesical instillation): powder for instillation fluid for intravesical use, administered during Induction and Maintenance therapy
Study summary
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat high-risk non muscle invasive bladder cancer (HR NMIBC). NMIBC is cancer in the tissue that lines the inside of the bladder but has not spread to the bladder muscle or outside of the bladder. High-risk means NMIBC may have a high chance of getting worse or coming back after treatment.
The goals of this study are to learn: 1. If more people who receive pembrolizumab with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) have no signs of cancer in their body and live longer without the cancer growing, spreading, or coming back compared to people who receive BCG alone. 2. About the safety and how well people tolerate BCG alone or in combination with pembrolizumab.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Complete Response Rate (CRR) by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) (Cohort A) — Up to ~3.5 years
CRR is defined as the percentage of participants with carcinoma in situ (CIS) achieving a complete response (CR). - Event-Free Survival (EFS) (Cohort B) — Up to ~5 years
EFS is defined as the time from randomization until urothelial carcinoma (UC)-defined event, or death due to any cause.
