A Study of TAR-200 in Combination With Cetrelimab or TAR-200 Alone Versus Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) in Participants With BCG-naïve High-risk Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (HR-NMIBC)
1050 patients around the world
Available in Spain, United States, Argentina
Bladder cancer is the tenth most common malignancy worldwide. About 75 percent (%) of
bladder cancers are non-muscle invasive at diagnosis with approximately 25% of NMIBC
patients have HR, NMIBC. The TAR-200/gemcitabine (JNJ-17000139) product is an
intravesical drug delivery system regulated as an investigational drug. The drug
constituent consists of gemcitabine and osmotic minitablets. Cetrelimab (JNJ-63723283) is
a fully human immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) kappa monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds
programmed-cell death protein (PD)-1. The mainstay of treatment for HR-NMIBC is
transurethral resection of bladder tumor, followed by intravesical treatment with BCG. In
this study metronomic dosing of intravesical gemcitabine, delivered via TAR-200, alone or
in combination with cetrelimab will be evaluated and compared against intravesical BCG.
The study consists of a Screening phase, Treatment phase, and Follow-up phase. The total
duration of the study will be up to 5 years and 2 months. Efficacy, Safety,
pharmacokinetics (PK), and biomarkers will be assessed at specific time points during the
study.
