What these facts mean, and what to ask · ruleset v1

Trial stature

Three independent measures of this study, described from its registry record — not a recommendation about it. A rigorous study by investigators nobody has heard of is better evidence than a weak study led by a famous one. How these are scored.

Methodological rigourSTRONG

Investigator standingUNKNOWN

We have no verifiable track record for the investigator named on this trial. That is common for early-career investigators and for records held outside ClinicalTrials.gov — it is not a negative signal.

How this score is built

Investigator standing0/100
No investigator recorded in the registry for this trial

These describe the registry record only, and today we hold ClinicalTrials.gov data. Absent fields lower a score, and absence often reflects registration practice rather than study quality. A high-stature trial is not necessarily safer or a better choice for you — enrolling in a large definitive trial can mean a higher chance of receiving placebo, while a small early-phase study may be the only route to a new therapy.

Sintesi

This phase III trial compares the effect of decreased number of radiation (ultra-hypofractionated) treatments to the usual radiation number of treatments (hypofractionation) with standard of care chemotherapy, with cisplatin, gemcitabine or mitomycin and 5-fluorouracil for the treatment of patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a short period of time. Ultra-hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers radiation over an even shorter period of time than hypofractionated radiation therapy. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making DNA and may kill tumor cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as mitomycin-C and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ultra-hypofractionated radiation may be equally effective as hypofractionated therapy for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. Demonstrate non-inferiority of ultra-hypofractionated (stereotactic body radiation therapy \[SBRT\]) compared to hypofractionated radiation therapy (RT) with a 10% non-inferiority margin (from 50% to 40%) in the rate of bladder-intact event-free survival (BI-EFS) at 3 years (corresponding to a hazard ratio \< 1.32). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Compare the rates of urinary and bowel toxicity, patient-reported outcomes (PRO), event-free survival (EFS), metastasis-free survival (MFS), and overall survival (OS) between the two treatment arms. II. Compare and evaluate symptomatic adverse events and quality of life measures that are most meaningful to patients. III. Evaluate circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) as a biomarker to determine whether it is predictive of disease recurrence and as a secondary outcome variable. EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate ctDNA, tissue-free minimal residual disease (tfMRD) and urine tumor DNA (utDNA) as biomarkers for predicting recurrence. II. Evaluate tfMRD, obtained at the time of progression, to determine if it captures the presence of disease. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms. ARM I: Patients receive hypofractionated radiation therapy (RT) once daily (QD), Monday to Friday, for 20 treatments in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive one of 3 systemic chemotherapy regimens per treating physician's choice: 1) cisplatin intravenously (IV) weekly for 4 weeks; 2) gemcitabine IV on days 1, 4, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22 and 25 or weekly for 4 weeks; or 3) mitomycin-C IV on day 1 and fluorouracil (5 FU), over 120 hours on days 1-5 and 22-26. Treatment is given in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo computed tomography (CT) scan and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) throughout the study. In addition, patients may undergo optional blood and urine sample collection throughout the study, as well as an optional biopsy during cystoscopy during follow up. ARM II: Patients receive ultra-hypofractionated RT QD, no more than twice weekly, for 5 treatments in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive one of 3 systemic chemotherapy regimens per treating physician's choice: 1) cisplatin IV weekly for 4 weeks; 2) gemcitabine IV on days 1, 4, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22 and 25 or weekly for 4 weeks; or 3) mitomycin-C IV on day 1 and 5 FU, over 120 hours on days 1-5 and 22-26. Treatment given in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo CT scan and/or MRI or FDG PET throughout the study. In addition, patients may undergo optional blood and urine sample collection throughout the study, as well as an optional biopsy during cystoscopy during follow up. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at week 16, every 3 months for 3 years then every 6 months to year 5.

Esiti misurati

Esito primario
Bladder-intact event-free survival (BI-EFS)
Defined as histologically proven presence of muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), radiographic evidence of nodal or metastatic disease, performance of radical cystectomy, or death from any cause. Time to event will be calculated from the date of randomization. BI-EFS will be estimated in the two treatment groups using the Kaplan-Meier method and the hazard ratio between ultra-hypofractionation and hypofractionation estimated by fitting a Cox proportional hazards regression model, including a treatment arm indicator variable and adjusting for the three stratification factors employed in the randomization.
Orizzonte temporale Up to 3 years
Esito secondario
Incidence of urinary adverse events
Will be graded per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (CTCAE v 5.0). The proportion of patients experiencing grade 3 or higher urinary/bowel toxicity within two years of initiation of treatment will be compared between the two treatment groups using a chi-square test. The 95% confidence interval (CI) width for the true difference will be at most ± 8.9%.
Orizzonte temporale Up to year 2
Esito secondario
Incidence of bowel adverse events
Will be graded per CTCAE v 5.0. The proportion of patients experiencing grade 3 or higher urinary/bowel toxicity within two years of initiation of treatment will be compared between the two treatment groups using a chi-square test. The 95% CI width for the true difference will be at most ± 8.9%.
Orizzonte temporale Up to year 2
Esito secondario
Quality of life
As measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bladder instrument.
Orizzonte temporale At baseline, 4 weeks, 16 weeks, 13 months, 25 months, and 37 months
Esito secondario
Event free survival
Kaplan-Meier curves will be generated and the groups compared using a stratified logrank test (stratified by the randomization stratification factors). In addition, a Cox regression model will be fit, including treatment arm and the stratification factors.
Orizzonte temporale From randomization to histologically proven presence of MIBC, radiographic evidence of nodal or metastatic disease, or death from any cause, up to 5 years
Esito secondario
Metastasis-free survival
Kaplan-Meier curves will be generated and the groups compared using a stratified logrank test. A Cox regression model will also be fit, including treatment arm and the stratification factors.
Orizzonte temporale From randomization to radiographic evidence of metastatic disease or death due to any cause, up to 5 years
Esito secondario
Overall survival
Kaplan-Meier curves will be generated and the groups compared using a stratified logrank test. A Cox regression model will also be fit, including treatment arm and the stratification factors.
Orizzonte temporale From randomization to death from any cause, up to 5 years
Esito secondario
Incidence of adverse events (AE)
Will be graded using CTCAE v 5.0. AE rates between the two treatment groups will be compared using chi-square or Fisher exact tests.
Orizzonte temporale Up to year 2
Esito secondario
Circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA)
The association between the ctDNA results and imaging scans will be examined by generating 2x2 tables (presence/absence of minimal residual disease vs. positive/negative scan) at each time point and assessing the concordance between the results. For subjects who are ctDNA-positive at baseline, the proportion that clear ctDNA at the conclusion of RT treatment will be estimated in each arm. A point estimate of these proportions and their associated 95% Wilson score confidence interval will be reported. Clearance rates between the two arms will be compared using a chi-square or Fisher's exact test as appropriate.
Orizzonte temporale At baseline, end of treatment (week 4), weeks 16, 28, 40, 56, and at disease progression or last follow-up visit
