About this study
Official title: Phase II Study of Enfortumab Vedotin Treatment for Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Penis
This phase II trial tests how well enfortumab vedotin works for treating patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the penis that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Enfortumab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, enfortumab, linked to an anticancer drug called vedotin. It works by helping the immune system to slow or stop the growth of tumor cells. Enfortumab attaches to a protein called nectin-4 on tumor cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them.
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
- To estimate the best response rate of enfortumab vedotin treatment for patients with metastatic penile squamous cell carcinoma (mPSCC).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- To determine overall response rate (ORR). II. To determine safety and tolerance of enfortumab vedotin in men with mPSCC. III. To characterize duration of response to enfortumab vedotin in mPSCC. IV. To estimate median overall survival and progression-free survival in men with mPSCC treated with enfortumab vedotin.
- To analyze response in subgroups by human papillomavirus (HPV) status (related/unrelated as assessed by p16 biomarker).
OUTLINE:
Patients receive enfortumab vedotin intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days 1,8 and 15 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) throughout the study.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and then every 3 months until progressive disease, followed by every 6 months for up to 5 years from registration.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Best response rate
Defined as the proportion of patients who experience either a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v) 1.1. The best response rate of CR/PR will be reported descriptively and a 95% confidence interval will be reported.
Measured: Up to 5 years
Secondary outcomes (6)
Objective response rate (ORR)
Defined as the proportion of patients who experience either a confirmed partial response or confirmed complete response as defined by RECIST v1.1. ORR will be reported descriptively and a 95% confidence interval will be reported.
Measured: Up to 5 years
Progression free survival (PFS)
Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The median PFS and 95% confidence interval will be reported.
Measured: From study entry to the first of either disease progression or death from any cause, up to 5 years
Overall survival (OS)
Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The median OS and 95% confidence interval will be reported.
Measured: From study entry to death from any cause, up to 5 years
Incidence of adverse events
The maximum grade for each type of adverse event by patient will be summarized by frequencies and percentages using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.
Measured: Up to 30 days after last dose of study medication
Duration of Response
Defined for all evaluable patients who have achieved an objective response as the date at which the patient's earliest best objective status is first noted to be either a CR or PR to the earliest date progression is documented.
Measured: Up to 5 years
Best response by human papillomavirus (HPV) status
The p16 biomarker will be used to assess HPV status. The p16 immunohistochemistry (IHC) outcome will be classified as positive, negative, or not available. Best response rates of either a CR or PR will be determined for each subgroup and 95% confidence intervals will be reported.
Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Enfortumab Vedotin, Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging in people with Metastatic Penile Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Stage III Penile Cancer AJCC v8, run by Mayo Clinic at 3 sites in United States.
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 22 inclusion and 31 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Clinical Trials Referral Office (855-776-0015, mayocliniccancerstudies@mayo.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Best response rate (time frame: Up to 5 years). 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 8 Jun 2026.
