New drug combo aims to wipe out bladder cancer before surgery
NCT ID NCT05239624
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether giving two drugs (enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab) before bladder cancer surgery can eliminate cancer in the lymph nodes and shrink tumors. About 23 adults with advanced bladder cancer that has spread to lymph nodes will receive the combination before their cystectomy. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes compared to standard treatment.
