Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • 1. Histologically confirmed advanced or metastatic UC in patients who have not received systemic treatment for advanced metastatic disease. For patients who received prior adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy or chemo-radiation for urothelial carcinoma, a treatment-free interval >12 months between the last treatment administration and the date of recurrence is required in order to be considered treatment-naïve in the metastatic setting. a. In safety lead-in: enrollment regardless of FGFR status b. Cohort A: must have an FGFR3 mutation or FGFR1-4 fusion/rearrangement c. Cohort B: all other patients with UC (including patients with other FGFR or nonFGFR genetic aberrations and patients with WT [nonmutated] tumors)
  • 10. A male patient must agree to use contraception during the treatment period and for at least 6 months following the last dose of study treatment.
  • 11. A female patient is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: a. Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP). b. A WOCBP who agrees to follow contraceptive guidance during the treatment period and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study treatment. c. A WOCBP who has a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to treatment.
  • 12. Ability to take medications orally (feeding tube is not permitted).
  • 13. Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits and study procedures.
  • 2. Unfit for or intolerant to cisplatin as defined by any one of the following criteria: a. Chronic kidney disease characterized by the estimated creatinine clearance rate (eCCr) per Cockcroft-Gault formula of <60 mL/min or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 , corresponding to NCI-CTCAE v.5.0 Grade ≥2 b. Impaired hearing (measured by audiometry) of >25 dB at two contiguous test frequencies in at least one ear, corresponding to NCI-CTCAE v.5.0 Grade ≥2 c. Peripheral sensory neuropathy Grade ≥2 by NCI-CTCAE v.5.0. Please refer to protocol for addition inclusion criteria.

You likely can't join if

  • 1. Have received prior therapy with anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1/L2 agent.

Retinal or corneal disorder confirmed by retinal/corneal examination and considered clinically significant in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • 4. Corrected QT interval using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) >470 msec. Patients with an atrioventricular pacemaker or other condition (for example, right bundle branch block) that renders the QT measurement invalid are an exception and the criterion does not apply.
  • 5. Has received major surgery within the previous 4 weeks.
  • 6. Has received any non-investigational anticancer therapy within the previous 3 weeks (mitomycin within the previous 5 weeks).
  • 7. Is currently participating in a study of an investigational agent/device, or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment.

  • 12. Have known active central nervous system metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. Patients with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are radiologically stable, that is, without evidence of progression for at least 4 weeks by repeat imaging (note that the repeat imaging should be performed during study screening), clinically stable, and without steroid treatment requirement for at least 1 month prior to the first dose of study treatment.
