Inclusion Criteria
  • Ineligible for or have elected not to undergo radical cystectomy
  • All adverse events associated with any prior surgery and/or intravesical therapy must have resolved to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 Grade less than (<) 2 prior to randomization
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status Grade 0, 1, or 2
  • Thyroid function tests are within the normal range per investigator assessment (or stable on hormone supplementation). Investigators may consult an endocrinologist for participant eligibility assessment in the case of equivocal or marginal test results
  • Adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function: Bone marrow function (without the support of cytokines or erythropoiesis-stimulating agent in preceding two weeks): Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to (>=) 1,500/cubic millimeters (mm^3); Platelet count >=80,000/mm^3; Hemoglobin >=9.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL); Liver function: (Total bilirubin less than or equal to (<=) 1.5 * upper limit of normal (ULN) or direct bilirubin <= ULN for participants with total bilirubin levels greater than (>)1.5*ULN (except participants with Gilbert's Syndrome, who must have a total bilirubin < 3.0 mg/dL), and Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) less than or equal to (<=) 2.5* institutional ULN); Renal function: Creatinine clearance >=30 mL/min using the Cockcroft-Gault formula. 24-hour creatinine clearance test will also be accepted for estimating renal function in situations where Cockcroft-Gault formula is not a good predictor of estimating adequate renal function
Exclusion Criteria
  • Must not have had urothelial carcinoma or histological variant at any site outside of the urinary bladder. Ta/T1/Carcinoma in situ (CIS) of the upper urinary tract (including renal pelvis and ureter) is allowable if treated with complete nephroureterectomy more than 24 months prior to initiating study
  • Must not have diffuse CIS based on cystoscopy and biopsy. Diffuse, or multi-focal, CIS is defined as the presence of at least 4 distinct CIS lesions in the bladder at the time of the Screening re-TURBT
  • Participants must not have evidence of cT4b, or N1-3, or M1 disease based on local radiology staging (chest, abdomen, and pelvis must be performed using Computed tomography [CT] or Magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) within 42 days prior to randomization
  • Presence of any bladder or urethral anatomic feature that, in the opinion of the investigator, may prevent the safe placement, indwelling use, or removal of TAR 200
  • Evidence of bladder perforation during diagnostic cystoscopy. Participant is eligible if perforation has healed prior to randomization

TAR-200 + CetrelimabCetrelimabParticipants will receive intravesical TAR-200 every 3 weeks (21 days indwelling) for first 18 weeks and thereafter from Week 24 every 12 weeks through study Year 3 in combination with intravenous (IV) Cetrelimab.

Chemotherapy (cisplatin or gemcitabine) + Radiation TherapyCisplatinParticipants will receive chemotherapy based on investigator's choice from either cisplatin intravenously once weekly for 4 to 6 treatment weeks or gemcitabine intravenously twice weekly for 4 to 6 treatment weeks as Standard of Care (SOC) along with radiation therapy from either conventional radiotherapy (64 Gray \[Gy\], bladder only) for up to 6.5 treatment weeks or hypo-fractionated radiotherapy (55 Gy, bladder only) for up to 4 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time from Randomization to the First Bladder Intact Event-free Survival (BI-EFS) eventUp to 8 years

Time from randomization to the first BI-EFS event includes histologically proven presence of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), clinical evidence of nodal or metastatic disease (as assessed by RECIST 1.1 criteria), radical cystectomy (RC), or death due to any cause.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Metastasis-free survival (MFS)Up to 8 years

MFS is measured from time from randomization to first radiologic (as assessed by RECIST 1.1 criteria) evidence of metastatic disease or death due to any cause.

Overall Survival (OS)Up to 8 years

OS is defined as time from randomization to death.

Overall Response Rate (ORR)Up to 8 years

ORR is defined as the proportion of participants who achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). CR is defined as Negative biopsy, and Computed tomography/Magnetic resonance imaging (CT/MRI) showing no evidence of locally advanced or metastatic disease. PR (down-staging) is defined as biopsy proven non-muscle invasive disease (Ta, T1, Tis) and CT/MRI showing no evidence of locally advanced or metastatic disease. Non-Response (NR) includes those not achieving a CR or PR. Those who do not undergo a biopsy will be considered Non-Evaluable (NE).

Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) According to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)Up to 8 years

Number of Participants with AEs by Severity as assessed by CTCAE version 5 will be reported. Grade refers to the severity of the AE as follows: Grade 1- Mild, asymptomatic or mild symptoms, clinical or diagnostic observations only, intervention not indicated; Grade 2- Moderate, minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated, limiting age-appropriate instrumental Activities of Daily Living (ADL); Grade 3- Severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening, hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated, disabling, limiting self-care ADL; Grade 4- Life-threatening consequences, urgent intervention indicated; Grade 5- Death related to AE.

Number of Participants with AEs by Severity according to Patient-Reported Outcomes Version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI PRO-CTCAE)Up to 8 years

NCI PRO-CTCAE is a patient-reported item library used to evaluate symptomatic treatment-emergent adverse events in participants on cancer clinical trials. The items selected for this study include all NCI PRO-CTCAE gastrointestinal items and urinary items. These items include taste changes, decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, gas, bloating, hiccups, constipation, diarrhea, abdominal pain, fecal incontinence, painful, urination, urinary urgency, urinary frequency, change in usual urine color, and urinary incontinence.

Number of Participants with Clinical Laboratory AbnormalitiesUp to 8 years

Number of participants with clinical laboratory abnormalities will be reported. Severity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.0. Severity scale ranges from Grade 1 (Mild) to Grade 5 (Death). Grade 1= Mild, Grade 2= Moderate, Grade 3= Severe, Grade 4= Life-threatening, and Grade 5= Death related to adverse event.
