Summary

Because of the high risk for development of muscle invasive disease, cystectomy is recommended for CIS, high-grade Ta and T1 patients who experience disease recurrence following intravesical therapy. Vicinium is an experimental agent that may provide an alternative to cystectomy

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Histologically-confirmed non muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma (transitional cell carcinoma) of the bladder as follows:
  • CIS (with or without papillary disease) OR
  • Any grade T1 papillary disease OR
  • High-grade Ta papillary disease based on a biopsy within 8 weeks of the initial dose of study treatment. If multiple bladder biopsies are required to confirm eligibility, the last bladder biopsy to the initial dose of study treatment must be within 8 weeks. This diagnosis must be confirmed by the independent central pathology reviewer prior to subject enrollment. A subject with persistent T1 disease on the second (i.e., restaging) TURBT may be enrolled in this study only if the investigator documents the subject declines cystectomy.
  • Subjects must have received adequate BCG treatment defined as at least 2 courses of BCG, i.e., at least one induction and one maintenance course or at least 2 induction courses. The initial induction course must be at least 5 treatments within a 7-week period. The second course (induction or maintenance) must be at least 2 treatments within a 6-week period. The "5+2" doses of BCG must be given within approximately 1 year (i.e., the start of one course to start of the second course within 12 months ±1 month) and for the same disease episode for which the subject is enrolling. Treatment must be considered "full-dose" BCG (see Section 10). If additional doses or courses of BCG above the minimum "5+2" are given, these do not have to be within the same approximate 12 month timeframe.

Subjects who were unable to receive at least 5 doses of BCG in a first course and at least 2 doses of BCG in a second course due to intolerance are not eligible.

Subjects who began their initial course of BCG with "full-dose" BCG and required dose-reductions due to adverse events but are still able to tolerate at least "5+2" doses of BCG are considered to meet the requirement for "adequate BCG." Subjects who received less than "full dose" BCG (e.g., 1/3rd dosing) as a standard regimen and not due to dose reductions because of AEs are not eligible.

The BCG may have been given in combination with interferon. When BCG is given simultaneously in combination with interferon, 1/3rd dosing of BCG is acceptable.

  • The subject's disease is refractory or has relapsed following adequate BCG treatment. Refractory disease is defined as disease which persists at the first evaluation following adequate BCG. Relapsed disease is defined as having a complete response to adequate BCG but recurs at a subsequent evaluation.

Subjects will enroll into one of three cohorts based on their type of disease and the time to refractory/relapsed disease following their last dose of BCG as follows:

  • Cohort 1: Subjects with CIS with or without associated papillary disease whose disease is determined to be refractory or relapsed within 6 months of the last dose of adequate BCG treatment.
  • Cohort 2: Subjects with CIS with or without associated papillary disease whose disease is determined to be refractory or relapsed more than 6 months but within 11 months of the last dose of adequate BCG treatment.
  • Cohort 3: Subjects with high-grade Ta or any grade T1 papillary disease (without CIS) whose disease is determined to be refractory or relapsed within 6 months of the last dose of adequate BCG treatment.

For eligibility and cohort assignment, 6 months is defined as 30 weeks i.e., 26 weeks (6 months) plus an additional 4 weeks to accommodate scheduling variations and for diagnostic work-up and 11 months is defined as 50 weeks i.e., 48 weeks (11 months) plus an additional 2 weeks to accommodate scheduling variations and for diagnostic work-up.

For subjects enrolling in Cohort 2: The investigator documents he/she would not treat the subject with additional BCG at the time of study entry.

  • Male or non-pregnant, non-breastfeeding female, age 18 years or older at date of consent.
  • All women of childbearing potential (WOCBP
