About this study

Official title: Phase II Randomized Study of Neoadjuvant Durvalumab (MEDI4736) Alone Versus Durvalumab (MEDI4736) With Olaparib (AZD2281) in Patients Ineligible for Cisplatin With Muscle-Invasive Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder Followed by Radical Cystectomy

This study is a phase II, randomized, open-label, clinical trial including patients with muscle-invasive transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder candidates for radical cystectomy. The study will include patients ineligible for cisplatin.

Patients will be centrally randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive durvalumab plus olaparib (Arm A) or durvalumab alone (Arm B).

The clinical study´s hypothesis is that for patients with muscle-invasive transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder who are not fit for cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy, Durvalumab monotherapy will have a similar efficacy to historical chemotherapy controls and Durvalumab in combination with olaparib will be associated with an even improved efficacy results in terms of pathologic complete response (pCR).

    Measured: 24 weeks.

  3. Disease Free Survival (DFS)

    defined as time from randomization to disease recurrence or death, whichever occur first.

    Measured: 5 years.

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    defined as time from randomization to death.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Olaparib and Durvalumab in people with Bladder Cancer and Urothelial Carcinoma, run by Latin American Cooperative Oncology Group at 1 site in Brazil.

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 21 inclusion and 34 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Not approved). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Pathological complete response rate (pCR) (time frame: 24 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 16 Jun 2021.
