Sacituzumab Govitecan in Combination with Adaptive Radiation Therapy for Treatment of Patients with Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer, RAD-SG Study

Trial Status: active

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of sacituzumab govitecan (SG) when given in combination with adaptive radiation therapy in patients diagnosed with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). SG is a monoclonal antibody, called sacituzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called govitecan. Sacituzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as TROP2 receptors, and delivers govitecan to kill them. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Adaptive radiation therapy means that the radiation therapy can change throughout treatment as needed to better treat the individual tumor. Giving SG in combination with adaptive radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells in patient with MIBC than giving either treatment alone.
