Brief Title: Durvalumab and Tremelimumab in Treating Patients With Muscle-Invasive, High-Risk Urothelial Cancer That Cannot Be Treated With Cisplatin-Based Therapy Before Surgery
Official Title: A Pilot Pre-Surgical Study Evaluating Anti-PD-L1 Antibody (Durvalumab) Plus Anti-CTLA-4 (Tremelimumab) in Patients With Muscle-Invasive, High-Risk Urothelial Carcinoma Who Are Ineligible for Cisplatin-Based Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy
Study ID: NCT02812420
Brief Summary: This pilot phase I trial studies the side effects of durvalumab and tremelimumab in treating patients with muscle-invasive, high-risk urothelial cancer that cannot be treated with cisplatin-based therapy before surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and tremelimumab, may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of durvalumab and tremelimumab in patients with muscle-invasive, high-risk bladder cancer who are ineligible for neoadjuvant cisplatin-containing chemotherapies. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To assess immunologic/molecular responses (e.g. peripheral blood cluster of differentiation \[CD\] 4+inducible T-cell co-stimulator \[ICOS\]+ T cells) to durvalumab and tremelimumab in patients with muscle-invasive, high-risk bladder cancer who are ineligible for neoadjuvant cisplatin-containing chemotherapies. II. To evaluate pathologic T0 rate after neoadjuvant treatment with durvalumab and tremelimumab in patients with muscle-invasive, high-risk bladder cancer comparing to historical data (about 10% in patients with high-risk disease). III. To evaluate relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). OUTLINE: Patients receive tremelimumab intravenously (IV) over 1 hour and durvalumab IV over 1 hour on day 1 of weeks 1 and 4. Beginning 4-6 weeks after the last infusion, patients undergo cystectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection surgery. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 90 days, and then every 3 months for up 1 year.
