A Randomized Trial of Intravesical Doxorubicin and Immunotherapy with Bacille Calmette–Guérin for Transitional-Cell Carcinoma of the Bladder

Donald Lamm et al.Oct 24, 1991

In carcinoma of the bladder, both intravesical chemotherapy and immunotherapy can induce tumor regression and reduce the rate of recurrence, but the relative merits of these two therapies are unclear. We conducted a multi-institutional study to address this question.Patients with rapidly recurrent (stage Ta and T1) or in situ transitional-cell carcinoma of the bladder were randomly assigned to receive either doxorubicin administered intravesically or bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) administered both intravesically and percutaneously. The 262 eligible patients were followed for a median of 65 months. Complete responses to treatment of carcinoma in situ were confirmed by biopsy and cytologic analysis of the urine.For patients with Ta and T1 tumors without carcinoma in situ, the estimated probability of being disease free at five years was 17 percent after doxorubicin, as compared with 37 percent after immunotherapy with BCG (P = 0.015). The median times to treatment failure (termination of treatment, due to persistence, recurrence, or progression of disease) were 10.4 and 22.5 months, respectively. For patients with carcinoma in situ the complete-response probability estimates (i.e., the estimated probability of documented disappearance of disease) were 34 percent for doxorubicin (23 of 67 patients) and 70 percent for BCG (45 of 64 patients) (P less than 0.001); the median times to treatment failure were 5.1 and 39 months, respectively. The probability of being disease-free at five years survival among the patients with carcinoma in situ was 18 percent after treatment with doxorubicin and 45 percent after BCG therapy. Patients treated with BCG had a higher incidence of toxic systemic effects and a larger number of local irritative symptoms than patients treated with doxorubicin, but few of these adverse reactions were severe.As compared with intravesical doxorubicin, immunotherapy with BCG provides improved protection against the recurrence of superficial bladder cancer.

Final results of CORE-001: A phase-2, single arm study of cretostimogene grenadenorepvec in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with BCG-unresponsive, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer with carcinoma in situ.

Roger Li et al.Jun 1, 2024

4601 Background: Cretostimogene grenadenorepvec is a type-5 oncolytic adenovirus designed to selectively replicate in bladder cancer cells with alterations in the retinoblastoma pathway. Additionally, the virus is engineered to express the GM-CSF transgene, resulting in a potent oncolytic immunotherapy mode of action. Cretostimogene monotherapy recently received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Fast Track and Breakthrough Therapy Designations (BTD) in the BCG-Unresponsive, High-Risk, non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer with Carcinoma in Situ (BCG-UR HR NMIBC with CIS) indication with a Complete Response (CR) at any time rate of 76%. This phase-2 study assessed the potential synergy between intravesical cretostimogene and pembrolizumab in patients with BCG-UR, HR NMIBC, with CIS, with or without Ta/T1 tumors. This combination has also received BTD from the FDA. Methods: 35 pts were treated with cretostimogene (1x10 12 viral particles) in combination with pembrolizumab at a dose of 400 mg IV q6 weeks. Cretostimogene induction was given as 6 weekly intravesical instillations followed by 3 weekly maintenance doses at months 3, 6, 9, 12, and 18. Pts with persistent CIS or high-grade Ta tumors at the 3mo assessment were eligible for re-induction. Pembrolizumab was administered for up to 24mo. Response assessments included cystoscopy, urine cytology, cross-sectional imaging, and mandatory bladder mapping biopsies at 12mo. The primary endpoint was CR at 12mo. Secondary endpoints included CR at any time, duration of response (DOR), CR at 24mo, cystectomy-free survival, and safety. Exploratory endpoints included analyses of baseline viral receptor expression, free E2F levels, PD-L1 status, urinary cytokine panels and measures of viral replication. Results: 30/35 pts are evaluable per protocol for the primary endpoint. Five pts discontinued prior to the 12mo time point. The CR rate in the Intention to Treat (ITT) population at 12mo and any time, was 57% (20/35) (95% CI 40-73%) and 83% (29/35) (95% CI 66-93%), respectively. Median DOR has not been reached but exceeds 21mo. The current CR rate in the ITT population at 24mo is 46% (16/35) (95% CI 29-63%). Three pts have yet to reach the 24mo time point. Cystectomy-free survival at 21mo is 80%. Complete data on the ITT and evaluable patient cohorts will be presented. Analyses of treatment-related adverse events (AE) are consistent with the individual agents and demonstrate no synergistic toxicity. Conclusions: The efficacy and safety of cretostimogene plus pembrolizumab for treatment of BCG-UR, HR NMIBC with CIS demonstrates best-in-class CR and DOR compared to current FDA-approved therapies, with an acceptable AE profile. Further investigation of this promising combination therapy is warranted and may serve to address a considerable unmet need. Clinical trial information: NCT04387461 .
