简要总结
This phase II trial studies how well paclitaxel and pembrolizumab works in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has not responded to previous treatment and has spread to other places in the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving paclitaxel together with pembrolizumab may be an effective treatment for urothelial cancer.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To estimate the overall response rate (ORR) of pembrolizumab combined with paclitaxel.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the safety and tolerability of pembrolizumab combined with paclitaxel.
II. To calculate the progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 6 months.

- •Albumin >= 2.5 mg/dL
- •Female subject of childbearing potential should have a negative urine or serum pregnancy within 72 hours prior to receiving the first dose of study medication; if the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required
- •Female subjects of childbearing potential should be willing to use 2 methods of birth control or be surgically sterile, or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the study through 120 days after the last dose of study medication; subjects of childbearing potential are those who have not been surgically sterilized or have not been free from menses for > 1 year
- •Male subjects should agree to use an adequate method of contraception starting with the first dose of study therapy through 120 days after the last dose of study therapy
- •Ability to understand and the willingness to sign an Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved informed consent document
排除标准
- •Currently receiving or has had treatment with an investigational agent or used an investigational device within 4 weeks of study day 1
- •Anti-cancer monoclonal antibody (mAb) within 4 weeks prior to study day 1 or who has not recovered (i.e., =< grade 1 or at baseline) from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier
- •Chemotherapy, targeted small molecule therapy, or radiation therapy within 2 weeks prior to study day 1 or who has not recovered (i.e., =< grade 1 or at baseline) from adverse events due to a previously administered agent
- •Note: Subjects with =< grade 2 neuropathy are an exception to this criterion and may qualify for the study
- •Note: If subject received major surgery, they must have recovered adequately from the toxicity and/or complications from the intervention prior to starting therapy
- •Prior therapy with an anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), anti-programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), or anti-programmed cell death-ligand 2 (PD-L2) agent. Prior therapy with paclitaxel or docetaxel
- •Hypersensitivity to pembrolizumab, any of its excipients, paclitaxel, or any of its excipients
- •Diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of trial treatment
- •Known history of active TB (Bacillus tuberculosis)
- •Known additional malignancy that is progressing or requires active treatment; exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has undergone potentially curative therapy or in situ cervical cancer
- •Known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis; subjects with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are stable (without evidence of progression by imaging for at least four weeks prior to the first dose of trial treatment and any neurologic symptoms have returned to baseline), have no evidence of new or enlarging brain metastases, and are not using steroids for at least 7 days prior to trial treatment; this exception does not include carcinomatous meningitis which is excluded regardless of clinical stability
- •Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years (i.e. with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs); replacement therapy (eg., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment

主要结局
Overall Response Rate
时间窗: Up to 6 months
The overall response rate will be performed in all patients that are evaluable for efficacy and will have one interim analysis. Overall response is complete response (CR) = Disappearance of all target lesions (PR) = at least a 30% decrease in sum of diameters, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters; stable disease (SD) = neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference smallest sum diameters while on study; and progressive disease (PD) = at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study based on all target lesions recorded since the treatment started.
次要结局
