Medical uses edit

Nogapendekin alfa inbakicept is indicated with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin for adults with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer with carcinoma in situ with or without papillary tumors.[1][6]

History edit

Efficacy was evaluated in QUILT-3.032 (NCT0302285), a single-arm, multicenter trial of 77 participants with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin-unresponsive, high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer with carcinoma in situ with or without Ta/T1 papillary disease following transurethral resection.[6] Participants received nogapendekin alfa inbakicept induction via intravesical instillation with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin followed by maintenance therapy for up to 37 months.[6] The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted the application for nogapendekin alfa inbakicept breakthrough therapy designation.[6]
