Comparing the New Anti-cancer Drug Eribulin With Chemotherapy Against the Usual Chemotherapy Alone in Metastatic Urothelial Cancer

Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To compare overall survival in participants with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) who are randomized to standard treatment versus eribulin plus gemcitabine hydrochloride (gemcitabine).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare progression-free survival (PFS) in the standard treatment arm to the experimental treatment arm in this population.

II. To compare Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 overall response rate (ORR), both confirmed and unconfirmed, complete and partial responses (CR and PR), in the standard treatment arm to the experimental treatment arm in the subset of participants with measurable disease in this population.

III. To compare duration of response (DOR) in the standard treatment arm to the experimental treatment arm in the subset of participants with measurable disease in this population.

IV. To compare disease control rate (DCR) in the standard treatment arm to the experimental treatment arm in the subset of participants with measurable disease in this population.

BANKING OBJECTIVE:

I. To bank specimens for future correlative studies.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 arms.

ARM I: Patients receive 1 of the 4 standard of care chemotherapy regimens based on treating investigator’s choice: Choice A: Patients receive docetaxel intravenously (IV) on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Choice B: Patients receive gemcitabine IV on days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Choice C: Patients receive paclitaxel IV on days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Choice D: Patients receive sacituzumab govitecan IV on days 1 and 8 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. (EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 18, 2024: sacituzumab govitecan is no longer included in Arm 1 for newly enrolled patients).

ARM II: Patients receive eribulin IV over 2-5 minutes on days 1 and 8 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. (CLOSED TO ACCRUAL)

ARM III: Patients receive eribulin IV over 2-5 minutes and gemcitabine IV on days 1 and 8 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

All patients undergo computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) throughout the trial and may undergo bone scan at the discretion of the treating physician. Patients also undergo blood and urine sample collection on the trial.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 2 years from the date of registration, then every 12 months until death or 3 years from the date of registration
