Personalized vaccine + immunotherapy aims to stop bladder cancer return

NCT ID NCT06534983

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding a personalized cancer vaccine (autogene cevumeran) to the immunotherapy drug nivolumab can prevent high-risk bladder cancer from coming back after surgery. About 62 participants will receive either the combination or nivolumab alone. The study has been refocused on safety and treatment continuity.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
autogene cevumeran (personalized cancer vaccine) plus nivolumab (immunotherapy)
What this could lead to
If it works, this combination could help prevent high-risk bladder cancer from coming back after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial that has been scaled back to focus on safety. The vaccine is personalized, which adds complexity, and it's unclear if the combination is better than nivolumab alone.
