About this study
Official title: A Prospective, Single Center Clinical Study to Examine Cisplatin-based Chemotherapy Combined With Tislelizumab as Bladder Sparing Treatment for Patients With Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
This study is designed prospectively to investigate the safety, efficacy and feasibility of cisplatin-based chemotherapy combined with tislelizumab as bladder sparing treatment for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) which are eligible for cisplatin. The patients that achieved clinical remission after 4 cycles of cisplatin/gemcitabine and tislelizumab, will receive tislelizumab maintenance therapy for a year or 13 cycles. Tislelizumab, an anti-programmed death protein-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, was engineered to minimize binding to FcγR on macrophages to abrogate antibody-dependent phagocytosis, a mechanism of T-cell clearance and potential resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy. The safety, tolerability, and efficacy of tislelizumab in patients with PD-L1 positive urothelial carcinoma who progressed during/following platinum-containing therapy was proved in a phase 2 trial (CTR20170071).
This trial investigates the efficacy of cisplatin-based chemotherapy combined with Tislelizumab to induce clinical complete remission of muscle invasive bladder cancer and the feasibility to provide bladder sparing treatment for these patients.
Read the detailed description
The patients that meet the Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria will treat with 4 cycles of cisplatin-based chemotherapy combined with Tislelizumab (200mg per cycle) prior to cystectomy discussion. The patients that show clinical benefit will receive tislelizumab for bladder sparing. Forty patients will be enrolled in this trial.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Clinical complete remission rate (cCR)
The clinical complete remission rate (cCR) was defined as the proportion of patients with clinically confirmed cT0 or cTa(AJCC Cancer Staging Manual,8th ed. 2017 edition ).The cT0 or cTa was assessed by cystoscopy examination at 12 weeks after the initiation of combination therapy. Two-sided Clopper-Pearson 95% confidence intervals were constructed to evaluate the accuracy of cCR.
Measured: Up to 24 months
Secondary outcomes (2)
Duration of cCR
Duration of cCR was defined as the delay between date of reaching cCR and tumour relapse or progression.The status of cCR was evaluated by cystoscopy examination every 3 months after the combination therapy. Stratified Cox proportional hazards models will be used to estimate hazard ratios in all eligible patients.
Measured: Up to 24 months
Bladder-intact event-free survival (BI-EFS)
Bladder-intact event-free survival (BI-EFS) was defined as the time from initiation of combination therapy to the date of occurrence of any following event :
- Recurrence of muscle-invasive bladder cancer based on follow-up cystoscopic evaluation
- Lymph node metastases based on CT/MR/PET-CT
- Distant metastases based on CT/MR/PET-CT
- Bladder cancer-related death
- Cystectomy due to any reason
BI-EFS will be estimated with Kaplan-Meier estimators and corresponding 95% confidence intervals.
Measured: Up to 24 months

A Phase 2 study testing Tislelizumab, Cisplatin and Gemcitabine in people with Muscle-Invasive Bladder Carcinoma, run by Ruijin Hospital at 1 site in China.
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 7 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 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 China. 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.

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 2 Jun 2021.
