Conditions
Urinary Bladder Neoplasms
Clinical Trials
This study is designed to assess the antitumor efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab in combination with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) versus CRT alone in participants with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). The primary hypothesis is that pembrolizumab + chemoradiotherapy is superior to placebo + chemoradiotherapy with respect to bladder intact event-free survival.

Patients who are 18 or older, have an ECOG of 0-2, are clinically diagnosed with MIBC clincal stage T2-T4aN0m0, and are electing bladder preservation, will have an equal chance (similar to flipping a coin) of being assigned to one of two groups.
50% of participants enrolled in the study will receive chemoradiotherapy and pembrolizumab
50% of participants enrolled in the study will receive chemoradiotherapy and placebo
In Phase 3 trials, researchers try to find out if a treatment works in a large number of people, usually about 1,000 to 5,000 participants who have the health condition the treatment is intended to treat. In vaccine trials, the participants may be healthy or have diseases or conditions. Phase 3 trials may happen in a doctor’s office, a clinic, or a hospital.
