About this study
Official title: An Open-label, Randomized, Controlled Phase 3 Study of Enfortumab Vedotin in Combination With Pembrolizumab Versus Chemotherapy Alone in Previously Untreated Locally Advanced or Metastatic Urothelial Cancer
This study is being done to see how well two drugs (enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab) work together to treat patients with urothelial cancer. The study will compare these drugs to other drugs that are usually used to treat this cancer (standard of care). The patients in this study will have cancer that has spread from their urinary system to other parts of their body.
Read the detailed description
Japan PMDA has approved enfortumab vedotin (Padcev) for the treatment of advanced urothelial cancer. The study will continue as a post marketing study in Japan.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the combination of enfortumab vedotin + pembrolizumab versus standard of care gemcitabine + platinum-containing chemotherapy, in subjects with previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer.
Enfortumab vedotin may be administered for an unlimited number of cycles until a protocol defined reason for study discontinuation occurs. Pembrolizumab may be administered for a maximum of 35 cycles or a protocol-defined reason for study discontinuation occurs, whichever is first. Cisplatin or carboplatin plus gemcitabine may be administered for a maximum of 6 cycles or a protocol-defined reason for study discontinuation occurs, whichever is first.
- Conditions
- Urothelial Cancer
- Being tested
- Enfortumab vedotin, Pembrolizumab, Cisplatin, Carboplatin, Gemcitabine
- Keywords

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version (v) 1.1 by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
PFS was defined as the time from date of randomization to first documentation of disease progression (PD), or to death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. PD: at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeter (mm). PD could also be unequivocal progression of non-target lesions or the presence of unequivocal new lesions. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Measured: From the date of randomization to first documentation of PD or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (maximum exposure to treatment was up to 39.2 months)
Overall Survival (OS)
OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. In the absence of death, OS was censored at the date the participant was last known to be alive. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Measured: From randomization to date of death due to any cause or censoring date, whichever occurred first (maximum exposure to treatment was up to 39.2 months)
Secondary outcomes (19)
Percentage of Participants With Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per RECIST v1.1 by BICR
ORR as per RECIST v1.1 by BICR was defined as the percentage of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) CR was defined as disappearance of all lesions including non-target lesions (not just target lesions). Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to<10 mm. PR was defined as at least 30 percent [%] decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. For a response to be considered as confirmed, the subsequent response needs to be at least 4 weeks after the initial response.
Measured: From first dose till CR/PR or PD or death, whichever occurred first (maximum up to approximately 7.4 years)
Time to Pain Progression (TTPP)
TTPP was defined as the time from the date of randomization to date of pain progression. Pain progression was defined as a participant reporting either of the following, whichever came first: 1) Increase of 2 or more points from baseline on Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form (BPI-SF) Question 3 (i.e., pain at its worst in the last 24 hours, score range 0 to 10 with higher scores associated with higher pain levels) maintained for at least two consecutive assessments. 2) Initiation of new opioid medication from baseline for pain with usage maintained for at least two consecutive assessments as recorded in BPI-SF Question 7 (i.e., What medications received for pain).
Measured: From the date of randomization to date of pain progression (maximum up to approximately 7.4 years)
Change From Baseline in Worst Pain Using BPI-SF at Week 26
Brief Pain Inventory (BPI-SF) was defined as summary of the worst, least, and average pain experienced in the last 24 hours as well as pain right now and number of pain locations were provided for each treatment arm. BPI-sf worst pain measured the severity of pain based on the pain at its worst in the last 24 hours, score range 0 to 10 with higher scores associated with higher pain levels.
Measured: Baseline, Week 26
PFS Per RECIST v1.1 by Investigator Assessment
PFS as per RECIST v1.1 by investigator was defined as the time from date of randomization to first documentation of PD, or to death due to any cause, whichever comes first. PD: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. PD could also be unequivocal progression of non-target lesions or the presence of unequivocal new lesions.
Measured: From the date of randomization to first documentation of PD or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (maximum up to approximately 7.4 years)
ORR Per RECIST v1.1 by Investigator Assessment
ORR as per RECIST v1.1 by investigator was defined as the percentage of participants with confirmed CR or PR. CR was defined as disappearance of all lesions including non-target lesions (not just target lesions). Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to<10 mm. PR was defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. For a response to be considered as confirmed, the subsequent response needs to be at least 4 weeks after the initial response.
Measured: From first dose till CR/PR or PD or death, whichever occurred first (maximum up to approximately 7.4 years)
Duration of Response (DOR) Per RECIST v1.1 by BICR
DOR was defined as the time from the first objective response (CR or PR that is subsequently confirmed) to the first documented PD per RECIST v1.1 per BICR or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. DOR will only include subjects with a confirmed response (CR or PR per RECIST v1.1). CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to<10 mm. PR was defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. For a response to be considered as confirmed, the subsequent response needs to be at least 4 weeks after the initial response. PD: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
Measured: From the date of first documented response of CR or PR to the first documented disease progression or to death from any cause, whichever occurred first (maximum up to approximately 7.4 years)
DOR Per RECIST v1.1 by Investigator Assessment
DOR was defined as the time from the first objective response (CR or PR that is subsequently confirmed) to the first documented PD per RECIST v1.1 per investigator or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. DOR will only include subjects with a confirmed response (CR or PR per RECIST v1.1). CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to<10 mm. PR was defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. PD: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. For a response to be considered as confirmed, the subsequent response needs to be at least 4 weeks after the initial response.
Measured: From the date of first documented response of CR or PR to the first documented disease progression or to death from any cause, whichever occurred first (maximum up to approximately 7.4 years)
Disease Control Rate (DCR) Per RECIST v1.1 by BICR
DCR by BICR was defined as the percentage of participants with confirmed response (CR or PR), or SD (or non-CR/non-PD), per RECIST v1.1. Subjects who have no post-baseline response assessments will be considered as non-responders for calculating the DCR. Only response assessments before the first documented PD or subsequent anticancer therapies were considered. CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to<10 mm. PR was defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. For a response to be considered as confirmed, the subsequent response needs to be at least 4 weeks after the initial response. SD was defined as a change in tumor size that is neither radiological response (>30% shrinkage) nor progression (>20% growth).
Measured: From the date of randomization to the date of PD or death from any cause or censoring date, whichever occurred first (maximum up to approximately 7.4 years)

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This study is being done to see how well two drugs (enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab) work together to treat patients with urothelial cancer. The study will compare these drugs to other drugs that are usually used to treat this cancer (standard of care). The patients in this study will have cancer that has spread from their urinary system to other parts of their body.
Detailed description
Japan PMDA has approved enfortumab vedotin (Padcev) for the treatment of advanced urothelial cancer. The study will continue as a post marketing study in Japan.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the combination of enfortumab vedotin + pembrolizumab versus standard of care gemcitabine + platinum-containing chemotherapy, in subjects with previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer.
Enfortumab vedotin may be administered for an unlimited number of cycles until a protocol defined reason for study discontinuation occurs. Pembrolizumab may be administered for a maximum of 35 cycles or a protocol-defined reason for study discontinuation occurs, whichever is first. Cisplatin or carboplatin plus gemcitabine may be administered for a maximum of 6 cycles or a protocol-defined reason for study discontinuation occurs, whichever is first.

Primary outcome
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version (v) 1.1 by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
Time frame: From the date of randomization to first documentation of PD or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (maximum exposure to treatment was up to 39.2 months)
PFS was defined as the time from date of randomization to first documentation of disease progression (PD), or to death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. PD: at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeter (mm). PD could also be unequivocal progression of non-target lesions or the presence of unequivocal new lesions. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Overall Survival (OS)
Time frame: From randomization to date of death due to any cause or censoring date, whichever occurred first (maximum exposure to treatment was up to 39.2 months)
OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. In the absence of death, OS was censored at the date the participant was last known to be alive. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 260 sites in United States, China, Japan, Russia, Spain and 20 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Sep 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version (v) 1.1 by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) (time frame: From the date of randomization to first documentation of PD or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (maximum exposure to treatment was up to 39.2 months)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04223856, which also lists 8 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 May 2026.
