Summary

This trial is testing the safety and effects of sasanlimab in people with early stage bladder cancer that is high risk or has been previously treated with BCG.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with early-stage bladder cancer that hasn't spread, was surgically removed, and is high risk. Participants must have had BCG treatment but can't join if they've had prior radiation to the bladder, muscle-invasive or advanced cancer, certain other treatments like immunotherapy, or participated in part A of this study.
What is being tested?
The study tests sasanlimab's safety and effects on non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. It has two parts: Part A (closed) compared sasanlimab plus BCG against BCG alone; Part B assigns new participants based on tumor type to receive sasanlimab at the clinic.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, typical ones from similar treatments may include immune reactions, irritation at injection site, flu-like symptoms such as fever and chills, fatigue, and potential infection risks.
