Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 75 with previously treated locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have not received prior platinum-based chemotherapy or PD-(L)1 inhibitors may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This study evaluates the effectiveness of 9MW2821 compared to traditional chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer who have previously been treated with a PD-(L)1 inhibitor and platinum-based chemotherapy. Participants will be monitored for antitumor activity and overall response to treatment. The study aims to determine if 9MW2821 can provide better outcomes than standard chemotherapy in this patient population.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer a more effective option for patients with advanced urothelial cancer who have limited treatment choices.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with similar approaches in treating advanced urothelial cancer, but this specific treatment is being evaluated for the first time.
