This is an interventional treatment trial for Urinary Bladder Neoplasms focused on measuring bladder carcinoma, BCG, PD-1 Read More

Inclusion Criteria:

• Adult man and women, 18-75 years old ECOG PS 0-1

• Carcinoma in situ (CIS)
• Underwent TURBT to remove all resectable disease (residual CIS acceptable) within 6 weeks before recruitment and confirm absence of muscle invasion. The restagingTURBT is acceptable, but the interval between the two TURBTs is 2-6 weeks;
• Absence of metastasis in pelvis, abdomen, or chest, as confirmed by a negative baseline computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan no more than 3m prior to the first study treatment
• BCG-naïve defined as：
• Chemotherapy failure but BCG naïve: patients who have received at least six of eight induction doses of chemotherapy（including immediate single instillation）have a high risk of recurrence within 1 year; but have not received BCG perfusion in the bladder;
• Treatment-naïve: patients who have not received prior intravesical chemotherapy or BCG, but who previously received but stopped chemotherapy or BCG more than 3 years before study entry are eligible
• Adequate hematologic and organ function, as defined by the following laboratory results obtained within 14 days prior to the first dose:
• white blood cell (WBC) counts ≥ 3.0× 109/L
• absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 ×109/L
• Platelet count ≥ 75 ×109/L
• Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL
• Serum albumin ≥ 30g/L
• aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) ≤2.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN)
• Serum bilirubin ≤1.0 × ULN
• Partial thromboplastin time (PTT)/Prothrombin Time (PT) ≤1.5 × ULN or international normalized ratio (INR) <1.7 × ULN
• Calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault formula)
• Female participants of childbearing potential have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test before recruitment. Female or male must be willing to use an adequate method of contraception during the treatment period and for at least 5 months after the last dose of tislelizumab
• Patient is willing and able to sign a written informed consent document and comply with the protocol for the duration of the trial including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits, and examinations including follow-up.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Muscle-invasive, locally advanced non-resectable, or lymph node positive, or metastatic urothelial carcinoma; previous or accompanied by upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC)
• There are pathological variants or non-urothelial cancer components in the very high risk of NMIBC
• T1 high-grade (HG/G3) combined with urothelial carcinoma of the prostate urethra

• Pathological tissue specimens with lymphovascular infiltration or special type of urothelial carcinoma after TURBT*

  *Special types of urothelial carcinoma: adenoid differentiation, squamous differentiation, neuroendocrine differentiation, plasma cell-like changes and micropapillary changes, etc.

• Prior treatment with CD137 agonists or immune checkpoint-blockade therapies, including anti-CD40, anti-CTLA-4, anti-PD-1, and anti-PD-L1 therapeutic antibodies
• The diagnosis of HR NMIBC was followed by induction intravesical chemotherapy, but immediate single instillation (within 24 hours after surgery) was allowed before the pathological results were not clear. The drugs include mitomycin, pirarubicin, doxorubicin, epirubicin, CHPT or gemcitabine;
• Treatment with anti-cancer therapy including systemic immunostimulatory agents (including but not limited to INF, IL-2any), chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or hormonal therapy or any other investigational agent.
• Any unresolved toxicity (CTCAE grade 2 or above) from previous anti-cancer therapy.
• Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years, including, but not limited to, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and so on.
• Patients with a condition requiring systemic treatment with either corticosteroids (>10 mg daily prednisone equivalents) or other immunosuppressive medications within 14 days before first dose. The use of inhaled or low-dose (e.g., ≤10 mg/day prednisone) corticosteroids is allowed.
• Known HIV, active Hepatitis B or C infection or tuberculosis.
• Infections ≥ 3 grade within 4 weeks, including but not limited to severe urinary tract infection, severe pneumonia, infectious complications, bacteremia intravenous antibiotic therapy or hospitalization patients receiving therapeutic oral or IV antibiotics within 1 weeks prior to the first dose are not eligible.
• History of severe allergic, anaphylactic, or other hypersensitivity reactions to chimeric or humanized antibodies or fusion proteins.
• Allergy or hypersensitivity to biopharmaceuticals produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells or any component of the tislelizumab or BCG formulation
• Prior allogeneic stem cell or solid organ transplant
• Major surgical procedure other than for diagnosis within 4 weeks prior to the first dose or anticipation of need for a major surgical procedure during the study
• Patients who have any of the following cardiac conditions:
• Poorly controlled diabetes (after treatment with glycosylated hemoglobin [HbA1c]> 8%);
• Poorly controlled High blood pressure evaluated by the investigator (blood pressure >160mmHg/100mmHg);
• Cardiac insufficiency (including left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] <50%), myocardial infarction within the past 6 months, arrhythmia or unstable angina that cannot be well controlled by medication.
• Pulmonary embolism, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, interstitial lung disease or clinically significant lung function test abnormalities; oother conditions that the treating physicians believe may endanger the health of the patients by their participation in this clinical trial.
• Administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to first dose, during treatment or within 8 weeks following the last dose of tislelizumab Note: Seasonal vaccines for influenza are generally inactivated vaccines and are allowed.
• Prior malignancy active within the previous 3 years except for locally curable cancers that have been apparently cured, such as basal or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer, prostate cancer without evidence of PSA progression or carcinoma in situ such as the following: gastric, prostate, cervix, colon, melanoma, or breast for example.
• Have a mental illness, restricted or incapable of civil conduct, and a known history of psychotropic drug abuse. It may increase the risk of participating in the research, or interfere with the results of the research, and patients who the researcher believes are not suitable for participating in this research.
