Brief Summary

The Phase IIIb NIAGARA-2 study aims to expand on the data from the Phase III NIAGARA study by investigating perioperative durvalumab in combination with investigator-selected cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (either ddMVAC or gemcitabine/cisplatin) in a clinical practice setting.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The safety of neoadjuvant durvalumab combined with ddMVAC or gem/cis prior to radical cystectomy (RC).Up to 6 months

Incidence of Grade 3 or 4 \[possibly treatment-related adverse events (PRAEs)\] as observed prior to RC.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The safety and tolerability of perioperative durvalumab combined with ddMVAC or gem/cis.Up to 2 years

Incidence, severity, nature, seriousness, intervention/treatment, outcome, and causality of treatment-emergent adverse events, including PRAEs, adverse events of special interest, immune-mediated adverse events, adverse events (AEs), and serious adverse events; AEs resulting in study treatment interruption and discontinuation; laboratory findings.

The efficacy of perioperative durvalumab combined with ddMVAC or gem/cis in terms of event-free survival (EFS).Up to 3 years

EFS is defined as the time from first neoadjuvant durvalumab + chemotherapy treatment until the earliest occurrence of any of the following events:

* First recurrence of disease after RC

* First documented progression in participants who were medically precluded from RC

* Time of expected surgery in participants who refuse to undergo RC or failure to undergo RC in participants with residual disease

* Death due to any cause.

The efficacy of perioperative durvalumab combined with ddMVAC or gem/cis in terms of disease-free survival (DFS).Up to 3 years

DFS is defined as the time from the date of RC to the earliest of the first recurrence of disease post RC or death due to any cause.

The efficacy of perioperative durvalumab combined with ddMVAC or gem/cis in terms of OS.Up to 3 years

OS is defined as the time from first neoadjuvant durvalumab + chemotherapy until death due to any cause.

The efficacy of neoadjuvant durvalumab combined with ddMVAC or gem/cis followed by RC in terms of pathologic complete response (pCR).Up to 3 years

pCR rate is defined as the proportion of participants whose pathologic staging is T0N0M0 as assessed per local pathology review using specimens obtained via RC.

The efficacy of neoadjuvant durvalumab combined with ddMVAC or gem/cis followed by RC in terms of pathologic downstaging (pDS).Up to 3 years

pDS rate is defined as the proportion of participants whose pathologic staging is \<P2 per local pathology review using specimens obtained via RC.
