What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
AvelumabDrug
Also called MSB0010718C
Participants received intravenous infusion of Avelumab at a dose of 800 mg once every 2 weeks until unacceptable toxicity, withdraw consent or initiation of a new treatment.
Sacituzumab Govitecan (SG)Drug
Also called IMMU-132, Trodelvy™, GS-0132
Participants received intravenous infusion SG at dose of 10 mg/kg of bodyweight once a week on Day 1 and 8 of each 21-daytreatment cycles until unacceptable toxicity, withdraw consent or initiation of a new treatment.
M6223Drug
Participants intravenous infusion of M6223 at dose of 1600 mg once every 2 weeks until unacceptable toxicity, withdraw consent or initiation of a new treatment.
NKTR-255Drug
Participants intravenous infusion of NKTR-255 at a dose of 3 mcg/kg of body weight once every 4 weeks until unacceptable toxicity, withdraw consent or initiation of a new treatment.
JB100Drug
As per the Clinical Study Protocol, the control group (avelumab alone) was extended by data from an external control, i.e. the JAVELIN Bladder 100 study (JB100) (NCT02603432). Participants received an intravenous infusion of 10 mg/kg of Avelumab along with best supportive care (BSC), on Day 1 and 15 of each 28 days treatment cycle, until confirmed disease progression, participant refusal, lost to follow up, unacceptable toxicity, or study termination by the sponsor, whichever occurred first. BSC was administered asper the treating physician. Participants were followed up until death, end of the study or withdrawal of consent, whichever comes first, regardless of initiation of new anticancer therapy.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST Version 1.1) Assessed by Investigator - Avelumab + Sacituzumab Govitecan Versus Avelumab Monotherapy (Avelumab [Control Group] + JB 100 [External Control])
PFS:defined as time from date of randomization to first documentation of progressive disease (PD) or death, occurring within 2 scheduled tumor assessments after last evaluable assessment or randomization. PD:at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD), taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from baseline/ appearance of 1/more new lesions. The propensity score (PS)-based weighted Kaplan-Meier estimated median PFS times. PS were used as weights to minimize impact of confounding factors on estimation of causal treatment effects. Each participant from randomized study was assigned a weight of 1, while participants from external control received a PS-based weight with sum of weights adding up to number of participants in randomized control arm. PFS Efficacy analysis was prespecified to use a pooled control population comprising the avelumab control arm and JB100 external control cohort; therefore, results are reported for combined control population.
Measured: Time from date of randomization to first documentation of progressive disease (PD) or death, assessed up to 32 months and 12 days (current study) and 41 months (JB100 extended control group)

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Treatment-Related Adverse Events, and AEs of Special Interest (AESIs)
Adverse Event (AE): any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered with a study drug, which does not necessarily had a causal relationship with this treatment. Serious AE: AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial/prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect. TEAEs were defined as events with onset date or worsening during the on-treatment period, defined as the time from the first dose of study intervention administration days to the last administration day + 30 days, or the start day of subsequent anticancer therapy - 1 day, whichever occurred first. TEAEs included serious AEs and non- serous AEs. AESIs included Infusion-related reactions (IRRs), Immune-related AEs (irAEs), Thromboembolic events, Cytokine release syndrome, QT interval prolongation.
Measured: Up to 32 months and 12 days (Current study) and 61 months and 11 days (JB100 extended control group)
Secondary outcomes (20)
Overall Survival (OS) -Avelumab + Sacituzumab Govitecan Versus Avelumab Monotherapy (Avelumab [Control Group] + JB 100 [External Control])
OS: time from date of randomization to death. OS was analyzed by using PS-based weighted product-limit (Kaplan-Meier) estimates. PS were used as weights to minimize the impact of confounding factors on the estimation of causal treatment effects. Each participant from randomized study was assigned a weight of 1, while participants from external control received a PS-based weight with the sum of weights adding up to number of participants in randomized control arm. Pre-chosen baseline covariates with possible impact on OS outcome was used to calculate the preference score, i.e., a prevalence adjusted PS defined as the conditional probability of being a participant of the JB100 study in contrast to being a participant of current study given observed baseline covariates. OS efficacy analysis was prespecified to use a pooled control population comprising the avelumab control arm and JB100 external control cohort; therefore, results are reported for combined control population.

Number of Participants With Positive Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) of Avelumab and Combination Drugs
Number of participants with positive ADA of Avelumab and combination drugs (Sacituzumab Govitecan [SG], M6223 and NKTR-255) were reported.

Change From Baseline in National Comprehensive Cancer Network- Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (NCCN-FACT) Bladder Symptom Index- 18 (FBlSI-18) Disease Related Symptoms-Physical Subscale (DRS-P) Scores at Week 13 - Avelumab + SG Versus Avelumab
The NCCN FACT FBlSI-18 is designed to be a stand-alone instrument to measure symptoms and quality of life in participants with urothelial carcinoma and was created using inputs from participants and oncologists. The disease-related symptoms - physical (DRS-P) subscale uses a subset of physical symptoms which are specific to urothelial carcinoma, i.e., pain, weight loss, urination, weakness, dizziness, meeting family needs, appetite, erection in males, and sleep. Each question offers 5 answers: not at all (0), a little bit (1), somewhat (2), quite a bit (3), very much (4). The overall summary range is 0-36. The scores of negatively stated items (e.g., pain) are reversed and added together with the positively stated scores. The sum of these item scores are multiplied by the number of items in the subscale, i.e., by 9, and divided by the number of items answered. In general, higher scores are better than lower scores.
