Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
For inclusion in the study, patients should fulfill the following
criteria:

- Aged at least 18 years

- BCG-naïve (patients who have not received prior intravesical BCG or who previously
received but stopped BCG more than 3 years before study entry are eligible)

- Local histological confirmation (based on pathology report) of high-risk transitional
cell carcinoma of the urothelium of the urinary bladder confined to the mucosa or
submucosa. A high risk tumor is defined as one of the following

- T1 tumor

- High grade/ G3 tumor

- CIS

- Multiple and recurrent and large (with diameter of largest tumor =3 cm) tumors
(all conditions must be met in this point)

- Complete resection of all Ta/T1 papillary disease prior to randomization, with the
TURBT removing high-risk NMIBC performed not more than 4 months before randomization
in the study. Patients with residual CIS after TURBT are eligible

- No prior radiotherapy for bladder cancer

- No prior exposure to immune-mediated therapy of cancer including, but not limited to,
other anti CTLA-4, anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, and anti-programmed cell death ligand 2
antibodies. Patients who have been treated with anticancer vaccines will be excluded
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
130 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
Patients should not enter the study if any of the following exclusion criteria are
fulfilled:

- Evidence of muscle-invasive, locally advanced, metastatic, and/or extra vesical
bladder cancer (ie, T2, T3, T4, and / or stage IV)

- Concurrent extravesical (ie, urethra, ureter, or renal pelvis), non-muscle-invasive
transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium

- Previous investigational product (IP) assignment in the present study

- Any concurrent chemotherapy, IP, biologic, or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment.
Concurrent use of hormonal therapy for noncancer related conditions (eg, hormone
replacement therapy) is acceptable. Chemotherapy for previous instances of NMIBC is
acceptable.

- Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders (including
inflammatory bowel disease [eg, colitis or Crohn's disease], diverticulitis [with the
exception of diverticulosis], systemic lupus erythematosus, Sarcoidosis syndrome, or
Wegener syndrome [granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Graves' disease, rheumatoid
arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc]). The following are exceptions to this
criterion:

- Patients with vitiligo or alopecia

- Patients with hypothyroidism (e.g., following Hashimoto syndrome) stable on
hormone replacement

- Any chronic skin condition that does not require systemic therapy

- Patients without active disease in the last 5 years may be included but only
after consultation with the Study Physician

- Patients with celiac disease controlled by diet alone

- History of another primary malignancy except for

- Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease = 2
years before the first dose of IP and of low potential risk for recurrence during
the study period

- Adequately treated nonmelanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna withoutevidence of
disease

- Adequately treated CIS without evidence of disease

- Prostate cancer (tumor/node/metastasis stage) of stage = T2cN0M0 without
biochemical recurrence or progression that in the opinion of the Investigator
does not require active intervention

- Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first
dose of durvalumab. The following are exceptions to this criterion:

- Intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, or local steroid injections (eg, intra
articular injection)

- Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses not to exceed 10 mg/day of
prednisone or its equivalent

- Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (eg, computed tomography
[CT] scan premedication)
