Brief Summary:
Due to limited experience with cabazitaxel in TCCU, the study will be started as a randomised phase II study. The aim of the phase II study is to evaluate if the response rates (CR + PR) are sufficiently high to further study the treatment regimens in a phase III setting.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Urothelium Transitional Cell Carcinoma Drug: Cabazitaxel Drug: Vinflunine Phase 2 Phase 3

Detailed Description:

Once it is confirmed that the subjects fulfil the eligibility criteria and have signed the informed consent, they will be randomised to receive treatment based on cabazitaxel or vinflunine according to the following study schema:

(Randomize 1:1)

  • Cabazitaxel 25 mg/m2 q3w
  • Vinflunine 250-320 mg/m2 q3w

Random assignment of treatment will be stratified by the presence of 0 versus 1 of the following unfavourable prognostic risk factors proposed recently by Bellmunt et al. (1):

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) PS 1.
  • Anaemia with Hb <10 g/dL.
  • Presence of liver metastases.

All patients enrolled in the study will receive a cycle of treatment with the study medication (cabazitaxel or vinflunine) every 21 days until disease progression or intolerable/unacceptable toxicity. Tumour evaluations will be scheduled every 6 weeks until progression

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Phase II main objective: to assess the efficacy of cabazitaxel compared to vinflunine in terms of improved objective response rate (ORR) of subjects with metastatic or locally advanced previously treated TCCU. [ Time Frame: From date of randomization to disease progression or until 18 months from enrolment. ]
    Efficacy of cabazitaxel compared to vinflunine on terms of improved objective response rate (ORR)

  2. Phase III main objective: To assess the efficacy of cabazitaxel compared to vinflunine in terms of improved overall survival (OS) of subjects with metastatic or locally advanced, previously treated TCCU. [ Time Frame: From date of randomization to death from any cause or until 18 months from enrolment. ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Phase II secondary objective: to assess the efficacy of cabazitaxel compared to vinflunine in terms of improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). [ Time Frame: From randomisation to either documented disease progression or death from any cause or until 18 months from enrolment (whichever occurs earlier) ]
  2. Phase II secondary objective: safety profile and tolerability of cabazitaxel. It will be determined from the number of Adverse Events reported. [ Time Frame: From the date the informed consent is signed up to 30 days after the last dose. ]
  3. Phase III secondary objective: to assess the efficacy of cabazitaxel compared to vinflunine in terms of improved objetive response rate (ORR) and progression free survival (PFS). [ Time Frame: From randomisation to either documented disease progression or death from any cause or until 18 months from enrolment (whichever occurs earlier) ]
  4. Phase III secondary objective: safety profile and tolerability of cabazitaxel. It will be determined from the number of Adverse Events reported. [ Time Frame: From the date the informed consent is signed up to 30 days after the last dose. ]

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Written informed consent
  • Histologically confirmed TCCU (urinary bladder, urethra, ureter or renal pelvis). Patients with mixed histology may be enrolled if TCCU is the predominant component (i.e., > 50% of the histopathology sample) with the exception of neuroendocrine or small cell carcinoma.
  • Advanced disease defined as a locally advanced tumour considered unresectable (T4b), node involvement in the inguinal area or above the aortic bifurcation (that are considered to be distant nodes and so metastasis) or metastasis in distant organs.
  • Patient should have received one prior platinum-based chemotherapy treatment for locally advanced or stage IV TCCU. Prior platinum-based adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy is allowed if more than 6 months have elapsed since the end of adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy till tumour relapse.

  • Evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease or any concurrent condition
  • History of another neoplasm.
  • History of hypersensitivity reactions to taxanes (docetaxel) (cabazitaxel specific criteria), vinca alkaloids (vinflunine specific criteria) or to any of the formulation excipients, including polysorbate 80
  • clear evidence or symptoms of central nervous system metastasis (cabazitaxel specific criteria).
