This phase II trial compares therapeutic plasma exchange followed by enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab to standard of care next-line therapy for the treatment of patients with bladder or upper urinary tract cancers that have spread from where they first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and that have not responded to previous treatment (refractory). TPE is a process that slowly removes a patient's blood through an intravenous or central line. The blood is sent through a machine that separates the plasma (the liquid part of blood) from other blood components (red cells, white cells, platelets). The plasma is then removed. The remaining blood components are combined with replacement fluid and returned to the patient's bloodstream through the intravenous or central line. Enfortumab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, enfortumab, linked to an anticancer drug called vedotin. It works by helping the immune system to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. Enfortumab attaches to a protein called nectin-4 on cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. It is a type of antibody-drug conjugate. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Treatment with enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab is already approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of bladder cancer, but TPE is not. Combining TPE with enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab may work better than standard of care options for treating metastatic and refractory bladder and urinary tract cancers. This study also evaluates the effect of TPE with standard of care antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) in treating patients with refractory metastatic bladder cancer. ADC therapy is treatment with a monoclonal antibody linked to a chemotherapy drug. It is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, and delivers chemotherapy to kill them. Giving TPE with standard of care ADC therapy may be effective in treating patients with refractory metastatic bladder cancer.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To compare the response rate (overall response rate [ORR]) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 among patients with metastatic bladder cancer (mBCa) who receive therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and antibody drug conjugate/immune checkpoint inhibition (ADC/ICI) re-challenge (group A) versus next-line standard of care therapy (group B) after progression on enfortumab vedotin combined with pembrolizumab (EV/pembro). (ReCIPE-B1 [Groups A and B])
II. To evaluate the response rate (ORR) by RECIST version 1.1 among patients with metastatic bladder cancer (mBCa) who receive therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and antibody drug conjugate (ADC) re-challenge (Cohort C) versus historical controls after progression on ADC. (CAKE ReCIPE [Cohort C])
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate and compare the overall survival (OS) of patients receiving TPE and ADC/ICI re-challenge versus next-line standard of care. (ReCIPE-B1 [Groups A and B])
II. To evaluate and compare the duration of response (DOR) by RECIST 1.1 between the arms. (ReCIPE-B1 [Groups A and B])
III. To evaluate and compare progression-free survival (PFS) by RECIST 1.1 between the arms. (ReCIPE-B1 [Groups A and B])
IV. To evaluate safety as assessed per National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 in both treatment arms. (ReCIPE-B1 [Groups A and B])
V. To evaluate patients’ quality of life (QoL) among both treatment arms as assessed by European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy 20 (EORTC QLQ-CIPN20) at baseline and every 12 weeks. (ReCIPE-B1 [Groups A and B])

X. To evaluate patients’ quality of life (QoL) as assessed by EORTC QLQ-CIPN20 at baseline and every 12 weeks. (CAKE ReCIPE [Cohort C])
CORRELATIVE OBJECTIVE:
I. To use circulating exosomes, circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and urine tumor DNA for identifying predictive biomarkers of response, progression, or relapse.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 groups. Patients are assigned to Cohort C.
GROUP A: Patients undergo TPE via venous access or central line on days 1-3 of cycles 1-3 and receive enfortumab vedotin intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days 3 and 10 of cycles 1-3 and on days 1 and 8 of cycle 4 and beyond and pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 3 of cycles 1-3 and day 1 of cycles 4 and beyond. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression of unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET)/CT, or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and collection of blood and urine samples throughout the study. Patients may undergo central line placement prior to TPE.
GROUP B: Patients receive physician's choice of standard of care next-line therapy. Patients also undergo CT, PET/CT, or MRI and collection of blood and urine samples throughout the study.
COHORT C: Patients undergo TPE via venous access or central line on days 1-3 of cycles 1-3 only and receive physician's choice of standard of care ADC IV on day 3 of cycles 1-3 and on day 1 of cycles 4 and beyond. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo CT, PET/CT, or MRI and collection of blood and urine samples throughout the study.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for up to 5 years.
