- Multifocal LG Ta; OR
- Solitary LG Ta \>3 cm; OR
- Low-grade Ta with prior recurrence(s) within 1 year. For Cohorts 4f and 4i, a diagnosis of HR NMIBC (according to AUA risk classification guidelines) is required, specifically:
- Ta HG papillary disease with or without CIS; OR
- T1 papillary disease with or without CIS
- Participants may be BCG-naïve or may have received prior treatment with BCG for HR or IR NMIBC (BCG-exposed, BCG-failed, BCG-intolerant)
- BCG-refractory participants are excluded. BCG-refractory is defined by the following:
- Persistent HG disease at 6 months following adequate BCG (defined as ≥5/6 induction instillations and ≥2 additional doses, either from re-induction or maintenance), OR
- HG T1 disease at first evaluation (3 months) after BCG, OR
- Persistent CIS that remains despite a second BCG course, OR
- Disease progression in stage or grade during BCG therapy, including maintenance
- Have no evidence of current or prior metastatic urothelial carcinoma
- Adequate bone marrow, renal, and hepatic function
- Any additional malignancy that requires active treatment, unless deemed appropriate after discussion by the Investigator with the trial's Medical Monitor.
- Used an investigational drug or medical device within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) of Visit 1 or be concurrently enrolled in another investigational trial.
- Active bacterial, fungal, or viral infections - all prior infections must have resolved following optimal therapy and subject must be off all systemic anti-infective agents.
- Active autoimmune disease, chronic inflammatory condition, or other conditions (like solid organ transplant or bone marrow allograft) requiring concurrent use of any systemic immunosuppressants or steroids.
- Chronic active hepatitis B or C and HIV.
