NCT ID NCT07445308

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new biologic drug called SPGL008, given alone or with the standard therapy BCG, in 120 people with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer who are not candidates for bladder removal. The main goals are to find a safe dose and see if the drug can control the cancer. The study is not yet recruiting.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

SPGL008 (a biologic) alone or combined with BCG

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with high-risk bladder cancer who cannot or choose not to have bladder removal surgery.

What could go wrong

This is an early-phase trial with only 120 participants, so it is too soon to know if SPGL008 works. Side effects are possible, and the combination with BCG may increase risks.
