Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This is an open-label phase II study assessing the activity of cabozantinib combined with atezolizumab in patients with resectable muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma who are ineligible for cisplatin-based therapy or decline cisplatin-based therapy. Each cycle equals 21 days. The dose of atezolizumab is 1200 mg IV flat dose every 3 weeks (Day 1) plus cabozantinib 40 mg orally daily (Day 1 through Day 21). Patients will receive three cycles of treatment prior to cystectomy unless they discontinue treatment for unacceptable toxicity or progressive disease by RECIST v1.1 or withdraw consent.

They should be fit for surgery, not pregnant, willing to use contraception, and free from HIV/AIDS, severe infections, other active cancers (except certain cases), significant heart disease, and uncontrolled illnesses. Prior treatments and allergies to study drugs are also considered.
