Summary
This trial is testing whether adding atezolizumab to gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy is safe and whether it works better than gemcitabine and cisplatin alone for treating pancreatic cancer.
Who is the study for?
Adults with bladder cancer that's invasive but hasn't been treated with chemotherapy or immunotherapy can join. They need to have a certain level of organ function, no severe allergies to the drug components, and agree to biopsies. Pregnant women and those with recent serious infections or heart issues cannot participate.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing if adding Atezolizumab (an immune system booster) to standard chemo drugs Gemcitabine and Cisplatin before surgery helps more than chemo alone. It's in phase II, so they're looking at how safe it is and how well it works.
What are the potential side effects?
Atezolizumab might cause lung problems like pneumonitis, reactions related to infusions, fatigue, liver issues, skin reactions, or worsen pre-existing autoimmune diseases. Standard chemo side effects include nausea, low blood counts leading to increased infection risk.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Atezolizumab, Gemcitabine, CisplatinExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
This is a two phase study with a single study arm for each phase.
For Phase 1: Following enrollment participants will be treated with combination therapy on a 21 day cycle x 6 cycles. Gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2 on Day 1 and Day 8), cisplatin (70 mg/m2 on Day 1), and atezolizumab (1200 mg on Day 8) will be administered intravenously.
Phase 2: Following enrollment participants will be treated with a single dose of atezolizumab alone followed by combination therapy on a 21-day cycle x 4 cycles, followed by a single dose of atezolizumab alone. Gemcitabine 1000mg/m2, cisplatin (70 mg/m2 on Day 1), and atezolizumab (1200 mg on Day 8) will be administered intravenously.
