Study of ONCOFID-P-B (PACLITAXEL-HYALURONIC ACID)

Plain-language summary
This is a phase III, single-arm, multicenter, international study to assess the efficacy and safety of ONCOFID-P-B following intravesical instillation in adult patients with histologically and cytologically confirmed CIS, with or without concomitant Ta-T1, who are unresponsive to BCG therapy and unwilling or unfit to undergo radical cystectomy.
After providing written informed consent (in presence of an Independent Witness, if applicable), patients will receive an induction therapy consisting of 12 weekly intravesical instillations of ONCOFID-P-B (induction phase). Patients with residual CIS at the end of induction treatment are eligible to enter a re-induction course of therapy (reinduction phase). Patients with stable disease by Investigator assessment defined as neither increased or decreased in extent or severity compared to baseline, are not eligible for re-induction therapy. Patients who achieve a complete resonde (CR) at the end of the induction or re-induction phase enter in the maintenance phase and receive monthly intravesical instillations of ONCOFID-P-B for an additional 12 monsthe or untile recurrence of CIS/HG Ta-T1 or progression to MIBC or extravesical disease. Patients who do not achieve a CR at the end of induction or re-induction phase, will discontinue investigational treatement and are followed up until month 48 from induction or re-induction start, or until a new antitumor therapy is initiated, wichever occurs first.
Tumor response is evaluated by cystoscopy, cytology and biopsy at the end of the induction and re-induction phases and at Safety Follow Up Visit (SFUV). During the maintenance/follow-up period, tumorresponse is evaluated by cystoscopy and cytology every 3 months for up to 24 months from induction or re-induction start, and then every 6 months for an additional 2 years (long-term follow-up). Tumor biopsies are performed in case of of positive cystoscopy and/or cytology. Random biopsies are to be performed at 6, 12 and 18 months after the end of the induction or re-induction phase in responding patients (i.e. at 9, 15 and 21 months after induction or re-induction start.

Inclusion criteria
. Willing and able to freely provide written informed consent (in presence of an Independent Witness if applicable) prior to performing study procedures.
. Age 18 years or older, male or female.
. Persistent or recurrent histologically confirmed CIS of the bladder with or without concomitant recurrent HG Ta-T1 and with no evidence of metastases demonstrated by abdominal CT scan or MRI.
. "BCG unresponsive" patients who refuse radical cystectomy or are not clinically suitable for cystectomy. BCG unresponsive disease is defined as persistent or recurrent CIS alone or with recurrent HG Ta-T1 within 12 months of completion of adequate BCG therapy.
. Complete resection of Ta-T1 papillary lesions before entering the trial in patients with concomitant CIS and papillary tumors (residual CIS acceptable, obvious areas of CIS should also be fulgurated).
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Centrally assessed Complete Response Rate (CRR) at any time.
Timeframe: CRR will be evaluated at any time from enrollment to 24 months after induction or re-induction start.
. In patients with T1 papillary lesions undergoing resection of the base of the lesion, the biopsy should contain muscle fibers.
. In patients undergoing transurethal resection of their bladder tumors, absence of locally advanced disease should be confirmed by pelvic examination under anesthesia.
. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1 or 2
Exclusion criteria
. Current or previous muscle-invasive disease (T2-T4) or metastatic urothelial carcinoma.
. Patients with more than 12 months between inclusion and the last BCG instillation
. Suspected hypersensitivity to paclitaxel or to any of the Oncofid-P-B constituents.
. Previous or concomitant urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract or the prostatic urethra. Freedom from upper tract disease must be demonstrated by intravenous pyelogram, retrograde pyelogram, CT scan or MRI.
. Current or prior systemic therapy for bladder cancer.
. Intravesical therapy within 4 weeks prior to beginning study treatment with the exception of cytotoxic agents (e.g. mitomycin C, doxorubicin and epirubicin) when administered as a single instillation immediately following a TURBT procedure between 14 to 60 days prior to beginning study treatment.
. Symptomatic urinary tract infection or bacterial cystitis.
. Major surgery, other than diagnostic, within 4 weeks prior to treatment.
