Brief Summary

To assess whether nivolumab+nab-paclitaxel combination results in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer

Conditions

  • Muscle-Invasive Bladder Carcinoma

Intervention / Treatment

  • Drug: Nivolumab + Nab-paclitaxel
  • Drug: Nivolumab

Primary Outcome Measures

  • Pathological complete response (Change from Screening after radical cystectomy)
    To assess whether nab-paclitaxel plus nivolumab results in pathological complete response (herein referred to as either "ypT0N0M0" or "pCR") in patients with clinical T2-4aN0M0 MIBC who cannot receive or refuse to receive cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Absence of any residual viable tumor in the radical cystectomy specimen. Two independent pathologists, blinded to the study findings, with \>10 years of experience in genitourinary tumors will independently evaluate the response.
