An Open Label, Single Arm Study, to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of NDV01 KIT in Patients With High Grade Non Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC)
This is a prospective, single-arm study evaluating the safety and efficacy of NDV01 KIT, a fixed-dose combination of gemcitabine HCl and docetaxel, administered via intravesical instillation in patients with high-grade Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC). NDV01 KIT includes 60 mL Carbopol Gel followed by 15 g NDV01 solution (gemcitabine HCl 1000 mg and docetaxel 40 mg), administered biweekly for six treatments, followed by monthly maintenance therapy for up to 12 months. The study includes a pharmacokinetic (PK) sub-study assessing systemic exposure to NDV01's active ingredients.
• Aged 18 - 80 years old
• Able to give informed consent
• Histologically confirmed diagnosis of high grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) - patients having high-grade disease at first evaluation after induction BCG alone (at least 5 of 6 doses) may qualify in the absence of disease progression.
• Participants must be ineligible for or have elected not to undergo radical cystectomy.
• Available for the whole duration of the study.
• Life expectancy \>2 years, in the opinion of the investigator.
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status 2 or less.
• Absence of concomitant upper tract urothelial carcinoma or urothelial carcinoma within the prostatic urethra. Freedom from upper tract disease (if clinically indicated) as indicated by no evidence of upper tract tumor by either intravenous pyelogram, retrograde pyelogram, computed tomography (CT) scan with or without urogram, or MRI with or without urogram performed within 6 months of enrolment.
• Patients with prostate cancer on active surveillance at low risk for progression, defined as Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) \< 10 ng/dL, Gleason score 6 and clinical stage tumor-1 (cT1) are permitted to be in the study at the discretion of the investigator (see exclusion criterion 10).
• Female patients of childbearing potential must use maximally effective birth control during the period of therapy, must be willing to use contraception for 1 month following the last study drug infusion and must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test upon entry into this study. Otherwise, female patients must be postmenopausal (no menstrual period for a minimum of 12 months) or surgically sterile. 'Maximally effective birth control' means that the patient, if sexually active, should be using a combination of two methods of birth control that are approved and recognized to be effective by Regulatory Agencies.
