High-level results from a planned interim analysis of the VOLGA Phase III trial showed perioperative treatment with IMFINZI® (durvalumab) in combination with neoadjuvant enfortumab vedotin (EV) demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) versus standard of care. Patients were ineligible for or had declined cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Patients in the comparator arm had a radical cystectomy (surgery to remove the bladder) with or without approved adjuvant treatment.

Perioperative IMFINZI plus IMJUDO® (tremelimumab-actl) in combination with neoadjuvant EV demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in EFS and a favorable trend for OS; however, the OS data were not statistically significant at this planned interim analysis and will be formally reassessed at a subsequent analysis.

Approximately one in four patients with bladder cancer has muscle-invasive disease, where the tumor invades the muscle wall of the bladder, without distant metastases.1,2 As many as 50% of patients are ineligible for cisplatin-based chemotherapy due to impaired renal function or comorbidities.3,4 The standard treatment for these patients has historically been radical cystectomy alone but, despite undergoing this major surgery, patients experience high rates of recurrence and have a poor prognosis.
