Urothelial carcinoma is the most common type of bladder cancer, comprising more than 90% of the cases in industrialized countries. It is the 10th most common cancer worldwide and is reported to have nearly 4 times higher prevalence in men than in women. Studies indicate that metastatic urothelial carcinoma shows an overall poor prognosis with limited long-term survival rates, reflecting the critical need for more effective treatment options.

Report Coverage

The Urothelial Carcinoma Drug Pipeline Insight Report by the publisher gives comprehensive insights into urothelial carcinoma drugs currently undergoing clinical trials. It covers various aspects related to the details of each of these drugs under development for urothelial carcinoma. The report includes the analysis of over 100 pipeline drugs and 50+ companies . The urothelial carcinoma pipeline landscape will include an analysis based on efficacy and safety measure outcomes published for the trials including their adverse effects on patients suffering from urothelial carcinoma.

The assessment part will include a detailed analysis of each drug, drug class, clinical studies, phase type, drug type, route of administration, and ongoing product development activities related to urothelial carcinoma.

Urothelial Carcinoma Drug Pipeline Outlook

Urothelial carcinoma or transitional carcinoma originates in the urothelium, the tissue that lines parts of the urinary system. It accounts for 90% and 7% of all cases of bladder cancer and kidney cancer, respectively. High-grade urothelial carcinoma often comes back even after treatment and may spread into the bladder’s muscle layer. On the other hand, low-grade urothelial carcinoma may be recurrent but the chances of it spreading into the muscle layer of the bladder are rare.

Common treatments for urothelial cancer include immunotherapy, targeted therapy, chemotherapy, and surgery, among others. In 2023, a two-drug combination of enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab (EV/pembro) was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic urothelial bladder cancer. With the growing focus on immunotherapies and drugs targeting specific molecular pathways, the pipeline for urothelial cancer is poised for robust growth and innovation in the coming years. Additionally, the continued development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and combination regimens are expected to bring further advancements in the pipeline.

Urothelial Carcinoma - Pipeline Assessment Segmentation, By Phases

The report covers phase I, phase II, phase III, phase IV, and early phase drugs. The coverage includes an in-depth analysis of each drug across these phases. According to analysis, phase II covers a major share of the total clinical trials for urothelial carcinoma. There are around 234 drugs in phase II of urothelial carcinoma.

Urothelial Carcinoma - Pipeline Assessment Segmentation, By Drug Classes

The drug molecule categories covered under urothelial carcinoma pipeline analysis include immune checkpoint inhibitors, targeted therapies, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), chemotherapeutic agents, PARP inhibitors, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). These drug classes comprise the major categories of therapies being developed for urothelial carcinoma. The choice of treatment varies depending on the specific type of patient population and the stage of the disease.

Urothelial Carcinoma - Emerging Drugs Profile

Leading drugs in the pipeline are as follows:

UGN-102

Sponsored by UroGen Pharma Ltd., UGN-102 is currently involved in a Phase 3 multicenter study that will assess its efficacy and safety profile as a primary chemoablative therapy in non-muscle-invasive patients.

Nivolumab

Bristol-Myers Squibb is sponsoring a Phase 3 clinical trial in which this drug is investigated for its effectiveness and safety compared to placebo in patients with radical surgery for invasive urothelial cancer.

Ipilimumab + nivolumab

Ipilimumab + nivolumab is in a Phase 2 study to evaluate the response of this induction therapy followed by chemoradiotherapy as a bladder-sparing treatment in urothelial bladder cancer.

KIN-3248

Currently, in Phase 1 of a multi-center, dose escalation and dose expansion study, the oral small molecule FGFR inhibitor KIN-3248 is under investigation for its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary efficacy in advanced tumors participants harboring FGFR2 and/or FGFR3 gene alterations.
