Summary

Patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who can not receive cisplatin or refuse cisplatin therapy will receive nivolumab or nivolumab/lirilumab before a planned surgical procedure called a radical cystectomy (RC) to remove the bladder.

Nivolumab works by attaching to and blocking a molecule called Programmed Death-1 (PD-1). Lirilumab attaches to and blocks a group of molecules called Killer Cell Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor (KIR). PD-1 and KIR are proteins present mainly on immune system cells, and each controls part of the immune system by shutting it down. It is hoped that by binding to and inactivating these proteins, these drugs can enhance the body's ability to detect, attack and destroy cancer cells.

The purpose of this research study is to see whether nivolumab alone or combination of nivolumab and lirilumab given before surgery is effective in treating people who have bladder cancer, and to examine the side effects, good and bad, associated with nivolumab and lirilumab.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Nivolumab

Nivolumab 480 mg intravenously (IV) over approximately 30 minutes every 4 weeks for 2 neo-adjuvant doses (week 0 and 4) followed by RC with bilateral (standard or extended) PLND as soon as possible but within 6 weeks after the last neoadjuvant infusion.

DRUG

Nivolumab/Lirilumab

Nivolumab 480 mg IV over approximately 60 minutes every 4 weeks for 2 neo-adjuvant doses (week 0 and 4) with at least a 30 minute rest between infusions followed by lirilumab 240 mg IV over approximately 60 minutes every 4 weeks for 2 neo-adjuvant doses (week 0 and 4) followed by RC with bilateral (standard or extended) PLND as soon as possible but within 6 weeks after the last neoadjuvant infusion.
