Study of PF-06801591 in Combination with BCG in Participants with Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC)
The study is designed to demonstrate that PF-06801591 plus Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) (induction and maintenance periods) is superior to BCG alone (induction and maintenance periods) in prolonging event free survival (EFS) in participants with high-risk naïve non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) and to demonstrate that PF-06801591 plus BCG (induction period only) is superior to BCG alone (induction and maintenance periods) in prolonging EFS in participants with high-risk NMIBC.
Expected Management
Canary PASS:
A multicenter, prospective active surveillance study with selective intervention in patients with previously untreated, clinically localized prostate cancer at diagnosis. The objective is to discover and confirm biomarkers that predict aggressive disease.
Hormone Therapy (ADT)
PROTEUS: A Study of Apalutamide in Participants With High Risk, Localized or Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer Who Are Candidates for Radical Prostatectomy
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) plus apalutamide (with or without abiraterone acetate with prednisone [AAP]) before and after radical prostatectomy in participants with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer results in an improvement in pathological complete response (pCR) rate and metastasis-free survival (MFS), as compared to ADT plus placebo.

Metastatic disease: Cancer that has spread to other areas
Clovis TRITON3: “A Study of Rucaparib Versus Physician’s Choice of Therapy in Patients With Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer and Homologous Recombination Gene Deficiency”
The purpose of this study is to determine how patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and evidence of a homologous recombination gene deficiency, respond to treatment with rucaparib versus treatment with physician’s choice of abiraterone acetate, enzalutamide, or docetaxel. Patients will be screened for the deleterious mutation in a BRCA1/2 or ATM gene to qualify.

Radiation Treatment
Phase 3 Study of ProstAtak® Immunotherapy With Standard Radiation Therapy for Localized Prostate Cancer (PrTK03)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of ProstAtak® immunotherapy in combination with radiation therapy for patients with intermediate-high risk localized prostate cancer. ProstAtak kills tumor cells and stimulates a cancer vaccine effect.
Stone Disease
Allena ALLN-177-302: Establishing the Safety and Efficacy of Reloxaliase in Patients With Enteric Hyperoxaluria (URIROX-2)
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy, durability and long term safety of reloxaliase in patients with enteric hyperoxaluria.

Incontinence
CELLEBRATE: Adaptive Design Study of Autologous Muscle Derived Cells Compared to Placebo for Female Urinary Sphincter Repair
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of Autologous Muscle Derived Cells for Urinary Sphincter Repair (AMDC-USR) compared to a placebo in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in adult female patients. Half of the participants will receive AMDC-USR (injections with cells) and the other half will receive a placebo. Participants who are randomly chosen to receive an injection with placebo will have the option to receive an injection with their cells after completion of the blinded portion of their study participation (12 months).
