CRITERIA; See 
Section 3 for ALL 
eligibility criteria 
1. Histologically or cytologically documented urothelial cancer. Locally 
advanced (T4b, any N; or any T, N 2−3) or metastatic disease (M1,

must be inoperable on the basis of involvement of pelvic sidewall or 
adjacent viscera (clinical Stage T4b) or bulky nodal metastasis 
(N2−N3). 
 
2. Representative formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor 
specimens in paraffin blocks (blocks preferred) or at least 15 
unstained slides. If archival tissue is not available and the subject is 
undergoing a standard of care biopsy, tissue from the biopsy is 
required to be submitted for correlative analyses. Subjects without 
adequate baseline tumor tissue may be considered for enrollment on a 
case by case basis after discussion with the sponsor-investigator.  
 
3. Measurable disease according to RECIST 1.1 within 28 days prior to 
registration. At least 1 lesion, not previously irradiated, that can be 
accurately measured at baseline as ≥10 mm in the longest diameter 
(except lymph nodes, which must have short axis ≥15 mm) with 
computed tomography (CT) (preferred) or magnetic resonance 
imaging (MRI) scans, preferably with IV contrast, and that is suitable 
for accurate repeated measurements as per RECIST 1.1 guidelines; 
lesions in a previously irradiated field can be used as a measurable 
disease provided that there has been demonstrated progression in the 
lesion 
 
4. A subject with prior brain metastasis may be considered if they have 
completed their treatment for brain metastasis at least 4 weeks prior 
to study registration, have been off of corticosteroids for ≥ 2 weeks, 
and are asymptomatic 
 
5. Subjects must have progressed despite prior treatment with anti-PD-
1/PD-L1 antibody therapy. Subjects must not have progressed within 
2 months of starting prior anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody therapy. 
Subjects must have received at least 1 line of prior systemic therapy. 
Subjects must not have experienced a toxicity that led to permanent 
discontinuation of prior immunotherapy. All AEs while receiving 
prior immunotherapy must have completely resolved or resolved to 
baseline prior to screening for this study with the exception of 
endocrine related AEs that are stable on replacement therapy (e.g., 
steroids, thyroid hormone) which may be considered eligible but must 
be discussed with the sponsor-investigator. 
 
6. Prior cancer treatment must be completed at least 28 days or 5 half-
lives (whichever is shorter) prior to first dose of study drug. Subjects 
must have recovered from all reversible acute toxic effects of the 
regimen (other than alopecia) to ≤ Grade 1 or baseline. 
 
7. Adequate organ function per screening labs

8. Cannot have QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia’s 
formula (QTcF) ≥470 ms calculated. Any clinically significant 
abnormalities detected require triplicate ECG results and a mean 
QTcF< 470 ms calculated from 3 ECGs obtained over a brief period 
(eg, 30 minutes) 
 
STATISTICAL 
CONSIDERATIONS 
 
A Simon’s 2-stage design will be applied. The null hypothesis that the 
true response rate is 2% will be tested against a one-sided alternative. In 
the first stage, 18 subjects will be accrued. If there are 0 responses in these 
18 subjects, enrollment will be stopped. Otherwise, 10 additional subjects 
will be accrued for a total of 28. The null hypothesis will be rejected if 3 
or more responses (complete/partial) are observed in 28 subjects and 
further investigation will be warranted. This design yields a type I error 
rate of 0.02 and power of 80% when the true response rate is 15% or 
larger.

BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE 
 
1.1 
Disease Background 
Each year in the United States, over 60,000 patients succumb to metastatic urothelial cancer. 
Standard first-line treatment for metastatic urothelial cancer includes platinum-based 
chemotherapy, regimens characterized by a relatively high response proportion but for the 
majority of patients, insufficient response durations. Given that a large subset of patients with 
metastatic urothelial cancer treated with first-line platinum based chemotherapy regimens are 
candidates for further treatment, several novel therapeutic approaches have been explored over 
the last several decades. However, until 2016, there had been no treatments approved in this 
setting by the United States Food and Drug Administration. The development of immune 
checkpoint blockade has recently changed the landscape of treatment for metastatic urothelial 
cancer.      
 
1.2 
Immune checkpoint blockade in advanced urothelial cancer 
 
1.2.1 PD-1/PD-L1 blockade in advanced urothelial cancer 
Several phase 1-3 trials have now established the activity and safety of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade in 
patients with metastatic urothelial cancer (Table 1). Collectively, these trials demonstrate durable 
responses are achieved in approximately 15-25% of patients with metastatic urothelial cancer 
with grade 3-4 adverse events occurring in approximately 5-15% of patients. Based on these 
findings, as of 5/2017, five PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors had been approved by the United States Food 
and Drug Administration for the treatment of patients with metastatic urothelial cancer and has 
been integrated into standard therapy.

1.2.2 CTLA-4 blockade in advanced urothelial cancer 
Though extensive studies have rapidly established proof of concept for immune checkpoint 
blockade with PD-1/PD-L1 blockade in advanced urothelial cancer leading to integration into 
standard treatment, CTLA-4 blockade has been understudied in this disease. Blocking the 
interaction between CTLA-4 expressed on T lymphocytes, and B7 family molecules expressed 
on antigen-presenting cells, has been shown to augment T cell activation, proliferation, and anti-
tumor immunity. In a syngeneic murine bladder cancer model, CTLA-4 blockade induced tumor 
regression, improved survival, and increased levels of tumor-reactive T cells.9   
 
A “window of opportunity” study explored the pharmacodynamic effects of the CTLA-4 
antibody, ipilimumab, administered prior to radical cystectomy in 12 patients with localized 
invasive urothelial cancer of the bladder.10 This study demonstrated infiltration of T cells in the 
post-ipilimumab cystectomy specimens. A phase II trial has explored gemcitabine, cisplatin, plus 
ipilimumab in patients with metastatic urothelial cancer.11 This study demonstrated 
pharmacodynamics effects and unusual response kinetics suggestive of benefit with the addition 
of CTLA-4 blockade. 
 
Preliminary results of the first study to explore single-agent CTLA-4 blockade in patients with 
metastatic urothelial cancer were reported at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer 2017 
meeting. Sharma et al reported the results of a phase 2 multicenter study exploring 
tremelimumab monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors, including patients with 
advanced urothelial cancer (NCT02527434).12 Among 32 patients with metastatic urothelial 
cancer enrolled, the confirmed objective response rate was 18.8% (95% CI 7.2-36.4) with 2 
complete responses and 4 partial responses; the median duration of response was not estimable 
and all patients with confirmed CR or PR had disease control at 12 months.  
 
1.2.3 CLTA-4 blockade may be non-cross resistant with single agent PD-1/PD-L1 
blockade in advanced urothelial cancer 
Given non-overlapping mechanisms of action, and potential synergy, emerging data suggest that 
single agent CTLA-4 blockade may be active in patients with disease progression despite prior 
single-agent PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. Such findings are critical as only 15-25% of patients with 
metastatic urothelial cancer respond to single-agent PD-1/PD-L1 blockade and the development 
of additional regimens with the potential to induce durable responses in this disease is urgently 
needed.  
 
Preliminary results of a phase 2 study of ipilimumab added to nivolumab, in patients with 
metastatic urothelial cancer progressing despite single-agent nivolumab, were presented at the 
2017 ASCO Genitourinary Cancer Symposium.13 Ten patients who were refractory to nivolumab 
monotherapy were treated with the combination of ipilimumab (1 mg/kg) and nivolumab (3 
mg/kg). Among these 10 patients, 1 patient achieved a partial response and three additional 
patients achieved stable disease.  
 
Taken together, the findings outlined above support the need to further dissect the potential role 
of CTLA-4 blockade alone in patients with metastatic urothelial cancer progressing despite prior 
treatment with a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor.

1.3 
Tremelimumab 
Tremelimumab, a CTLA-4 mAb of the immunoglobulin G 2 kappa isotype, is an 
immunomodulatory therapy that is being developed by AstraZeneca for use in the treatment of 
cancer. CTLA-4 is a critical regulatory signal for T-cell expansion and activation following an 
immune response, and it serves as a natural braking mechanism that maintains T-cell 
homeostasis. During T-cell activation, T-cells upregulate CTLA-4, which binds to B7 ligands on 
APCs, sending an inhibitory signal that limits T-cell activation. Tremelimumab blocks the 
inhibitory signal resulting from CTLA-4 binding to B7, leading to indirect prolongation and 
enhancement of T-cell activation and expansion. Thus, the mechanism of action of 
tremelimumab is indirect and is applied through enhancing T-cell-mediated immune response. 
 
An extensive program of non-clinical and clinical studies has been conducted for tremelimumab 
both as monotherapy and combination therapy with conventional anticancer agents to support 
various cancer indications using different dose schedules. To date tremelimumab has been given 
to more than 1500 patients as part of ongoing studies either as monotherapy or in combination 
with other anticancer agents. Details on the safety profile of tremelimumab monotherapy are 
summarized in Section. Refer to the current tremelimumab Investigator’s Brochure for a 
complete summary of non-clinical and clinical information including safety, efficacy and 
pharmacokinetics. Refer to the tremelimumab Investigator’s Brochure for a complete summary 
of non-clinical and clinical information. 
 
1.4 
Rationale 
A prospective trial to assess the activity of tremelimumab in patients with metastatic urothelial 
cancer progressive despite prior PD-1/PD-L1 blockade is supported by the following lines of 
evidence: 
 
1. Immune checkpoint blockade has changed the landscape of treatment for metastatic 
urothelial cancer, a disease without prior treatment advances in decades. 
2. Single-agent PD-1/PD-L1 blockade results in durable responses in ~15-20% of patients with 
metastatic urothelial cancer.  
3. Single-agent tremelimumab has shown similar response proportions to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade 
in metastatic urothelial cancer in a small phase 2 study. 
4. The mechanism of action of CTLA-4 blockade and PD-1/PD-L1 blockade are non-
overlapping and at least additive activity has been observed with combination therapy across 
several malignancies.  
5. Treatment of patients with metastatic urothelial cancer progressing despite prior PD-1/PD-L1 
blockade is a major unmet need. 
 
1.5 
Rationale for dose/schedule 
An extensive program of non-clinical and clinical studies has been conducted for tremelimumab 
both as monotherapy and combination therapy with conventional anticancer agents to support 
various cancer indications using different dose schedules. A total of 34 sponsored clinical studies 
have been conducted as part of the tremelimumab clinical development program. Of these, 13 
studies have completed and 21 are ongoing. Eight tremelimumab monotherapy studies have been 
completed and 3 are ongoing. As of the data cutoff date of 24 January 2016, 962 patients 
received tremelimumab in completed monotherapy studies and 380 patients in the Phase IIb

monotherapy study (D4880C00003; DETERMINE). Study D4881C00024 is an ongoing rollover 
study, which provides continued access to treatment to 37 patients treated in prior completed 
studies. In the third ongoing monotherapy study (D4884C00001), 44 patients have been treated 
as of the data cutoff date. In addition, approximately 80 patients have been treated with 
tremelimumab in monotherapy arms of combination studies. Five studies of tremelimumab in 
combination with other anticancer agents have been completed and 18 are ongoing. In total, 
approximately 250 patients with a variety of tumor types have received tremelimumab in 
combination with other anticancer agents in these studies. 
 
In patients, tremelimumab exhibits linear (dose-proportional) PK following IV infusion. The 
estimate of clearance (CL), volume of distribution at steady state (Vss), and terminal-phase half-
life is 0.132 mL/h/kg, 81.2 mL/kg and 22.1 days, respectively. These values are consistent with 
those of natural IgG2. 
 
Across the clinical development program for tremelimumab, a pattern of efficacy has emerged 
that is similar to that of the related anti-CTLA-4 antibody, ipilimumab. In patients who respond, 
the responses are generally durable, lasting several months even in patients with aggressive 
tumors such as refractory metastatic melanoma. Some patients may have what is perceived to be 
progression of their disease in advance of developing disease stabilization or a tumor response.  
 
The target trough concentration of tremelimumab is estimated to be approximately 30 μg/mL, 
based on enhanced interleukin (IL)-2 release (in vitro) and antitumor activity (in vivo) in 
preclinical studies. PK simulations indicate that, following a dose of 10 mg/kg q4w for 6 months, 
approximately 90% of patients are expected to be above this target level of 30 μg/mL during the 
induction phase. Tremelimumab at a dose of 10 mg/kg q4w for 6 months followed by 10 mg/kg 
every 90 days is expected to yield PK exposures similar to those of the related anti-CTLA-4 
mAb ipilimumab, given at a dose of 10 mg/kg every 3 weeks (q3w) for 4 cycles (12 weeks) 
followed by 10 mg/kg every 3 months (beginning on Week 24), the dosing regimen that was 
tested in the pivotal first-line melanoma trial. 
 
Retrospective analyses of the Phase I and II tremelimumab melanoma studies show an 
improvement in OS for patients who were able to achieve a higher tremelimumab exposure, as 
measured by the area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve (AUC). The median OS 
was significantly longer in the high-AUC group (15.3 months; N=164) versus the low- AUC 
group (6.0 months; N=163) (based on the median value of AUC [103570 μ.h /mL]). This 
difference in OS corresponds to a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.41 (p<0.001), and the estimated survival 
rates in these 2 groups were 59% versus 29%, respectively, at 1 year. Additionally, a 
retrospective exposure and survival analysis of 293 patients treated with tremelimumab in a 
Phase III study in patients with melanoma showed better OS in patients with higher exposure. 
The median OS was 18.4 months for the high-AUC group (≥123665 μg.h /mL) compared to 9.0 
months for the low-AUC group (<123665 μ.h/mL) (HR 0.5; p<0.001). Tremelimumab 
monotherapy at a dose of 750 mg q4w for 7 doses (cycles) followed by 750 mg q12w for 2 
additional doses (cycles) is equivalent to 10 mg/kg tremelimumab monotherapy with the same 
dosing schedule. Therefore, the current study will utilize the following dosing regimen: 
Tremelimumab 750 mg once every 4 weeks for up to 7 doses.

Contraception 
 
5.3.1 Female patient of child-bearing potential 
Females of childbearing potential are defined as those who are not surgically sterile (ie, bilateral 
tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or complete hysterectomy) or post-menopausal. Females 
of childbearing potential who are sexually active with a non-sterilized male partner must use at 
least 1 highly effective method of contraception (Table 2) from the time of screening and must 
agree to continue using such precautions for 90 days after the last dose of tremelimumab. Non-
sterilized male partners of a female patient must use male condom plus spermicide throughout 
this period. Cessation of birth control after this point should be discussed with a responsible 
physician. Not engaging in sexual activity for the total duration of the drug treatment and the 
drug washout period is an acceptable practice; however, periodic abstinence, the rhythm method, 
and the withdrawal method are not acceptable methods of birth control.  
 
Female subjects should also refrain from breastfeeding throughout this period. 
Women will be considered post-menopausal if they have been amenorrheic for 12 months 
without an alternative medical cause. The following age-specific requirements apply:  
 Women < 50 years of age would be considered post-menopausal if they have been 
amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of exogenous hormonal 
treatments and if they have luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone levels 
in the post-menopausal range for the institution or underwent surgical sterilization 
(bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy).  
 Women ≥ 50 years of age would be considered post-menopausal if they have been 
amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous hormonal 
treatments, had radiation-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, had 
chemotherapy-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, or underwent surgical 
sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy). 
 
5.3.2 Male subjects with a female partner of childbearing potential 
Non-sterilized males who are sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential 
must use a male condom plus spermicide from screening through 90 days after receipt of the 
final dose of tremelimumab. Not engaging in sexual activity is an acceptable practice; however, 
occasional abstinence, the rhythm method, and the withdrawal method are not acceptable 
methods of contraception. Male subjects should refrain from sperm donation throughout this 
period. 
 
Female partners (of childbearing potential) of male subjects must also use a highly effective 
method of contraception throughout this period (Table 2).  Highly effective methods of 
contraception, defined as one that results in a low failure rate (ie, less than 1% per year) when 
used consistently and correctly are described in Table 2. Note that some contraception methods 
are not considered highly effective (eg. male or female condom with or without spermicide; 
female cap, diaphragm, or sponge with or without spermicide; non-copper containing 
intrauterine device; progestogen-only oral hormonal contraceptive pills where inhibition of 
ovulation is not the primary mode of action [excluding Cerazette/desogestrel which is considered 
highly effective]; and triphasic combined oral contraceptive pills).

TOXICITIES AND DOSE DELAYS/DOSE MODIFICATIONS 
The NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.03 will be used to 
grade adverse events.  
 
Subjects enrolled in this study will be evaluated clinically and with standard laboratory tests 
before and at regular intervals during their participation in this study as specified in Study 
Calendar & Evaluations. 
 
Subjects will be evaluated for adverse events (all grades), serious adverse events, and adverse 
events requiring study drug interruption or discontinuation as specified in Study Calendar & 
Evaluations.   
 
6.1 
Infusion Reactions 
In the event of a ≤ Grade 2 infusion-related reaction, the infusion rate of study drug may be 
decreased by 50% or interrupted until resolution of the event and re-initiated at 50% of the initial 
rate until completion of the infusion. For subjects with a ≤ Grade 2 infusion-related reaction, 
subsequent infusions may be administered at 50% of the initial rate. Acetaminophen and/or an 
antihistamine (eg, diphenhydramine) or equivalent medications per institutional standard may be 
administered at the discretion of the site investigator. If the infusion-related reaction is ≥ Grade 3 
or higher in severity, study drug will be discontinued. For management of subjects who 
experience an infusion reaction, please refer to the toxicity and management guidelines in 
Appendix 1.  
 
As with any antibody, allergic reactions to dose administration are possible. Appropriate drugs 
and medical equipment to treat acute anaphylactic reactions must be immediately available, and 
study personnel must be trained to recognize and treat anaphylaxis. The study site must have 
immediate access to emergency resuscitation teams and equipment in addition to the ability to 
admit subjects to an intensive care unit if necessary.

6.2 
Dose Delays/Dose Modifications 
The following general guidance should be followed for management of tremelimumab-related 
toxicities. 
 Treat each of the toxicities with maximum supportive care (including holding the 
agent suspected of causing the toxicity if required). 
 If the symptoms promptly resolve with supportive care, consideration should be 
given to continuing study drug along with appropriate continuing supportive 
care. 
 If medically appropriate, dose modifications are permitted (Appendix 1) 
 All dose modifications should be documented with clear reasoning and documentation of 
the approach taken. 
 
Guidelines for the management of immune-mediated reactions, infusion-related reactions, and 
non-immune-mediated reactions are provided in Appendix 1, Dosing Modification and Toxicity 
Management Guidelines. In addition, there are certain circumstances in which tremelimumab 
should be permanently discontinued (see Section 6.4 and Appendix 1). 
 
Following the first dose of study drug, subsequent administration tremelimumab can be modified 
based on toxicities observed as described in Appendix 1, the Dosing Modification and Toxicity 
Management Guidelines. These guidelines apply to adverse events considered by the reporting 
site investigator to be causally related to tremelimumab. In case of doubt, the site investigator 
should consult with the sponsor-investigator. 
 
6.3 
Liver Function Test Abnormalities 
If a patient shows an AST or ALT ≥ 3 x ULN together with total bilirubin ≥ 2 x ULN, refer to 
Appendix 1 for further instructions. These cases should be reported as SAEs if, after evaluation, 
they meet the criteria for a Hy’s law case or if any of the individual liver test parameters fulfill 
any of the SAE criteria.  
 
6.4 
Protocol Therapy Discontinuation 
In addition to discontinuation from therapy related to toxicities as outlined in Appendix 1, a 
subject will also be discontinued from protocol therapy and followed per protocol under the 
following circumstances outlined below.  The reason for discontinuation of protocol therapy will 
be documented on the electronic case report form (eCRF)   
 
Confirmed disease progression per RECIST 1.1 prior to Cycle 7 
 
Completion of scheduled treatment 
 
Site investigator determines a change of therapy would be in the best interest of the 
subject 
 
Subject requests to discontinue protocol therapy, whether due to unacceptable toxicity or 
for other reasons 
o In a subject decides to prematurely discontinue protocol therapy (“refuses 
treatment”), the subject should be asked if he or she may still be contacted for further 
scheduled study assessments. The outcome of that discussion should be documented 
in both the medical records and in the eCRF. 
 
Female subject becomes pregnant.  
 
If subject weight falls to 35kg or less.

 
Grade  3 infusion reaction. 
 
Study therapy is interrupted for ≥ 120 days.  
 
Subjects who are permanently discontinued from receiving investigational product will be 
followed for safety per Section 7, including the collection of any protocol-specified blood 
specimens, unless consent is withdrawn or the subject is lost to follow-up or enrolled in another 
clinical study. All subjects will be followed for survival. Subjects who decline to return to the 
site for evaluations will be offered follow-up by phone every 3 months as an alternative. 
 
6.5 
Protocol Discontinuation  
If a subject decides to discontinue from the protocol (and not just from protocol therapy) all 
efforts should be made to complete and report study assessments as thoroughly as possible. A 
complete final evaluation at the time of the subject’s protocol withdrawal should be made with 
an explanation of why the subject is withdrawing from the protocol. If the reason for removal of 
a subject from the study is an adverse event, it will be recorded on the eCRF.

CBC with differential and platelet to include: Hgb, Hct, WBC, ANC, absolute lymphocyte count, platelets. CMP to include sodium, potassium, 
chloride, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen; liver function tests (LFTs) to include AST, ALT, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase  
 
Key to Footnotes  
1: Medical History includes: smoking history questionnaire and a question regarding how the patient heard about the study. Prior anti-cancer 
treatment should be documented including medications (chemotherapy, checkpoint inhibitors, etc) radiation or surgery. Antibiotic use for 6 
months prior to stool collection will be documented. Diagnosis and staging to include pathology report and Tumor Node Metastasis (TNM) 
staging. Prior genomic or molecular testing results are required if available. 
 
2: Vital signs to include: blood pressure, pulse, temperature, respiration rate, weight, height (screening only) and ECOG performance status.  
Please see Section 5 for guidelines regarding vital signs during study drug infusion. 
 
3: Resting 12-lead ECGs will be recorded at screening and as clinically indicated throughout the study. ECGs should be obtained after the patient 
has been in a supine position for 5 minutes and recorded while the patient remains in that position. In case of clinically significant ECG 
abnormalities, including a QTcF value >470 ms, 2 additional 12-lead ECGs should be obtained over a brief period (eg, 30 minutes) to confirm. 
 
4: Thyroid Function (TSH, T4 and T3) will be done prior to treatment C1D1 then C3D1, C5D1, and C7D1 or more often if clinically indicated per 
site investigator discretion. For T4 and T3, free versus total is at the discretion of the site investigator. 
 
5: For women of childbearing potential (WOCBP): urine or serum βhCG if clinically appropriate. If a urine test is done and it is positive or cannot 
be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required.   
 
6: Active infection, including tuberculosis (clinical evaluation that includes clinical history, physical examination and radiographic findings, and 
tuberculosis testing in line with local practice), hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV, positive HIV 1 or 2 antibodies). 
Active hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is defined by a positive HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) result. Subjects with a past or resolved HBV 
infection (defined as the presence of hepatitis B core IgG antibody and the absence of HBsAg, deoxyribonucleic acid [DNA] negative) are eligible. 
Subjects positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction is negative for HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA). 
 
7: Urinalysis for bilirubin, blood, glucose, ketones, pH, protein, specific gravity to be performed at screening and as clinically indicated throughout 
the study per site investigator’s discretion. 
 
8: Radiology imaging to include: CT of the chest, CT or MRI of the abdomen/pelvis and bone scan (in subjects with bone metastasis). Scans 
should be performed at screening then every 2 months (± 7 days) during Cycles 1-7 (e.g., after C2, C4, etc.) and then every 3 months (± 7 days) 
until the time of progression. Imaging for the D30 safety visit may be omitted if already performed within 2 past months. 
 
9: Tremelimumab will be given approximately every month for up to 7 cycles in the absence of disease progression or prohibitive toxicity. Refer 
to Section 5 for information regarding monitoring of subjects during infusion.

10: Representative formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor specimens in paraffin blocks (blocks preferred) or at least 15 unstained slides 
will be identified prior to subject registration and shipped prior to C1D1. If archival tissue is not available and the subject is undergoing a standard 
of care biopsy, tissue from the biopsy is required to be submitted for correlative analyses. Subjects without adequate baseline tumor tissue may be 
considered for enrollment on a case by case basis after discussion with the sponsor-investigator. See Correlative Laboratory Manual (CLM) for 
additional details. 
 
11: Surplus tissue remaining after routine standard of care procedures (e.g., metastatic biopsies) during and after treatment will be collected during 
this study. Subjects may have tumor tissue obtained during the course of the study or at the time of disease progression for clinical purposes (e.g., 
confirmation of disease progression, management of complication of disease progression, etc.). Subjects will have the option of whether samples 
obtained during standard of care procedures may be used for research purposes. Samples for correlative analysis are required if a standard of care 
biopsy is performed at screening for the first 7 cycles of treatment. See CLM for additional details. 
 
12: Blood samples for research will be drawn pre-treatment C1D1 (may be done during screening if subject is found eligible), C2D1, C3D1, C6D1 
and at time of progression. See Table 3 and CLM for additional information. Blood samples for research will be collected for subjects receiving re-
treatment after progression. If samples are collected at progression after the initial 7 cycles of tremelimumab, samples at screening prior to re-
treatment C1D1 do not need to be repeated. Samples will also be done prior to treatment C2D1, C3D1, C6D1 and at progression after re-treatment. 
 
13. Stool for microbiome analysis will be collected prior to treatment prior to C1D1 of initial treatment. Subjects will be provided a kit with 
detailed instructions regarding collection of the sample prior to the timepoint. Samples will not be collected during re-treatment. Please see the 
CLM for additional details. 
 
14: The safety follow-up visit should only occur when subjects stop study treatment for whatever reasons (toxicity, progression, or at discretion of 
site investigator) and should be performed ~30 days (+7 days) after the last dose of treatment. Subjects who have an ongoing Grade ≥ 2 or serious 
AE (SAE) at this visit will continue to be followed until the AE resolves to ≤ Grade 1 or baseline, deemed clinically insignificant, and/or until a 
new anti-cancer treatment starts, whichever is earlier. 
 
15: Subjects completing study treatment without evidence of disease progression will be followed every 3 months for progression. Subjects with 
disease progression within 1 year of completing initial treatment with tremelimumab may be eligible for re-treatment with tremelimumab. After 
progression for subjects who are not candidates for tremelimumab retreatment or who initiate other anticancer therapies, patients will be followed 
for survival which may be accomplished via clinic visit, phone call, or other avenues as appropriate. Subjects who decline to return to the site for 
evaluations will be offered follow-up by phone every 3 months as an alternative. 
 
16: Results for LFTs, electrolytes and creatinine MUST BE REVIEWED by the treating physician or site investigator within 3 days prior to 
administration of study drug. For Day 15 Cycles 1-3, subjects will be contacted via phone call or other avenues as appropriate on Day 15 (± 3 
days) for AE assessment. If issues are identified during communication with the subject, appropriate assessment will be performed based on 
discretion of research staff. This may include a clinic visit, lab work or additional communication.

17: Patients that complete the initial 7 cycles of tremelimumab then have evidence of disease progression per RECIST 1.1 (with or without 
confirmation) during the 1-year follow-up period may be eligible for re-treatment with up to 7 additional cycles of tremelimumab. Such patients 
are required to meet the eligibility criteria outlined in Section 3.3. Testing done during progression may be used for screening prior to re-treatment. 
Subjects should follow the same schedule of events/procedures for the initial Cycles 1-7 of tremelimumab. Baseline tumor assessment will be 
within 28 days of starting retreatment. Subjects should follow the same schedule of events/procedures for the initial cycles 1-7 of tremelimumab. 
Re-treatment should start within 28 days of documented progression.

BIOSPECIMEN STUDIES AND PROCEDURES  
Tumor tissue, peripheral blood, and possibly normal urothelium will be used for biospecimen-
based research in this study. Full details of specimen collection and processing can be found in 
the CLM. 
 
Correlative studies may include genomic sequencing of tumor tissue and/or peripheral blood and 
immune monitoring studies including T cell receptor sequencing and flow cytometry and/or mass 
cytometry on tissue and/or peripheral blood, antigen-specific T cell assays, HLA typing, and 
gene expression.  
 
8.1 
Tissue 
Analysis of tumor tissue will include assessment for changes in the composition of immune cells, 
tumor cells, and tumor microenvironment. Immune cell composition and changes in the tumor 
microenvironment will be analyzed by platforms including but not limited to 
immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, and mass cytometry. Tumor cells will be analyzed by 
immunohistochemistry, DNA, and RNA sequencing. Normal tissue or blood will be used for the 
germline genome. An effort will be made to identify tumor antigens for each subject using 
strategies including, but not limited to, collating the “antigenome” using immunohistochemistry 
data as well as identifying mutation-derived tumor antigens through genome sequencing and 
computational biology approaches to predict epitope: MHC binding affinity. Subject HLA typing 
will be done by sequence specific oligonucleotide probing and sequence specific priming of 
genomic DNA using standard procedures. T-cell responses will be detected using standard 
ELISPOT and intracellular cytokine assays or other emerging technologies. Tumor tissue will 
also be utilized for PD-L1 expression as determined by immunohistochemistry.

8.1.1 Archival Tissue 
Representative formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor specimens in paraffin blocks 
(blocks preferred) or at least 15 unstained slides will be identified prior to subject registration 
and shipped after registration but prior to C1D1. Representative formalin-fixed paraffin-
embedded (FFPE) tumor specimens in paraffin blocks (blocks preferred) or at least 15 unstained 
slides. If archival tissue is not available and the subject is undergoing a standard of care biopsy, 
tissue from the biopsy is required to be submitted for correlative analyses. Subjects without 
adequate baseline tumor tissue may be considered for enrollment on a case by case basis after 
discussion with the sponsor-investigator. Specimens will be utilized for cellular and molecular 
analyses including but not limited to DNA sequencing, RNA sequencing, and tissue 
imaging/multiplex staining. 
 
8.1.2 Tissue collected during routine clinical procedures 
Surplus tissue remaining after routine standard of care procedures (e.g., metastatic biopsies) will 
be collected during this study. Subjects may have tumor tissue obtained during the course of the 
study or at the time of disease progression for clinical purposes (e.g., confirmation of disease 
progression, management of complication of disease progression, etc.). Specimens obtained in 
these settings may be accessed by the research team to facilitate an understanding of the 
pharmacodynamic effects of treatment at the level of the tumor and microenvironment including 
mechanisms of treatment resistance.  Subjects will have the option of whether samples obtained 
during standard of care procedures may be used for research purposes. 
 
8.2 
Blood Samples 
For blood samples, the volume of blood and type of tube to be used for each collection is 
specified in Table 3 and CLM.  Collection of whole blood samples is mandatory for participation 
in this study. Blood samples for research will also be collected for subjects receiving re-
treatment after progression. 
 
8.2.1 Blood for Immune cell subsets 
The quantity and composition of immune cells in the peripheral blood will be analyzed by flow 
cytometry or mass cytometry. Antigen specific T cell responses will be detected as described 
above.   
 
8.2.2 Peripheral blood for DNA and RNA 
Plasma will be stored for future ctDNA isolation and quantitative expression using sequence 
specific primers and/or for exome sequencing. DNA from whole blood may be used to germline 
sequencing to facilitate analysis of somatic tumor DNA sequencing. Whole blood will be stored 
for gene expression profiling from RNA.  
 
8.3 
Stool for microbiome analysis 
Prior to treatment, patients will provide a stool sample from a single bowel movement for 
microbiome analysis as per the CLM. Stool samples will be analyzed to assess microbiome 
diversity and composition. Exploratory analyses correlating clinical outcomes and 
diversity/composition as well as assessment of metabolomics and metagenomic whole genome 
sequencing may be performed. Stool samples will not be collected during re-treatment with 
tremelimumab.

8.4 
Storage of Biospecimens 
Excess biospecimens not completely utilized in these experiments will be stored indefinitely at 
HCRN for future use in research focused on GU malignant diseases that are yet to be 
determined.  All specimens collected will maintain the assigned sequence ID number of the 
corresponding patient.  Deidentified samples may be shared with other research institutions.  We 
believe that allowing for storage and usage of the remaining samples for future research is 
ethically justified and a preferred option to discarding these materials given the potential impact 
on improving clinical outcomes for subjects with bladder cancer.  Subjects will be given the 
option to store excess specimens during the informed consent process. 
 
8.5 
Confidentiality of Biospecimens 
Samples that are collected will be identified by a subject’s sequence ID assigned at the time of 
registration to the trial. Any material issued to collaborating researchers will be anonymized and 
only identified by the subject’s sequence ID. 
 
9. 
CRITERIA FOR DISEASE EVALUATION 
See section 5.1.3 and 5.1.4 for criteria for continuing treatment past RECIST 1.1 disease 
progression. 
 
9.1 
RECIST 1.1 
 
9.1.1 Measurable disease  
The presence of at least one measurable lesion. If the measurable disease is restricted to a 
solitary lesion, its neoplastic nature should be confirmed by cytology/histology.  
 
9.1.1.1 
Measurable lesions 
Measurable lesions are defined as those that can be accurately measured in at least one 
dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as >20 mm by chest x-ray, as >10 mm with CT 
scan, or >10 mm with calipers by clinical exam.  All tumor measurements must be recorded in 
millimeters (or decimal fractions of centimeters). 
 
9.1.1.2 
Non- Measurable lesions 
All other lesions (or sites of disease), including small lesions (longest diameter <10 mm or 
pathological lymph nodes with ≥ 10 to <15 mm short axis), are considered non-measurable 
disease.  Bone lesions, leptomeningeal disease, ascites, pleural/pericardial effusions, 
lymphangitis cutis/pulmonitis, inflammatory breast disease, and abdominal masses (not followed 
by CT or MRI), are considered as non-measurable. 
 
NOTE:  Cystic lesions that meet the criteria for radiographically defined simple cysts should not 
be considered as malignant lesions (neither measurable nor non-measurable) since they are, by 
definition, simple cysts. 
 
‘Cystic lesions’ thought to represent cystic metastases can be considered as measurable lesions, 
if they meet the definition of measurability described above. However, if non-cystic lesions are 
present in the same subject, these are preferred for selection as target lesions. 
 

Clinical Study Protocol 
HCRN GU17-294 
Version Date: 28MAR2019 
Confidential 
Page 33 of 69 
9.1.1.3 
Malignant lymph nodes  
To be considered pathologically enlarged and measurable, a lymph node must be >15 mm in 
short axis when assessed by CT scan (CT scan slice thickness recommended to be no greater 
than 5 mm).  At baseline and in follow-up, only the short axis will be measured and followed. 
 
9.1.1.4 Baseline documentation of “Target” and “Non-Target” lesions 
 
Target lesions 
All measurable lesions up to a maximum of 2 lesions per organ and 5 lesions in total, 
representative of all involved organs, should be identified as target lesions and recorded and 
measured at baseline.  Target lesions should be selected on the basis of their size (lesions with 
the longest diameter), be representative of all involved organs, but in addition should be those 
that lend themselves to reproducible repeated measurements.  It may be the case that, on 
occasion, the largest lesion does not lend itself to reproducible measurement in which 
circumstance the next largest lesion which can be measured reproducibly should be selected.  A 
sum of the diameters (longest for non-nodal lesions, short axis for nodal lesions) for all target 
lesions will be calculated and reported as the baseline sum diameters.  If lymph nodes are to be 
included in the sum, then only the short axis is added into the sum.  The baseline sum diameters 
will be used as reference to further characterize any objective tumor regression in the measurable 
dimension of the disease. 
 
Non-target lesions  
All other lesions (or sites of disease) including any measurable lesions over and above the 5 
target lesions should be identified as non-target lesions and should also be recorded at baseline.  
Measurements of these lesions are not required, but the presence, absence, or in rare cases 
unequivocal progression of each should be noted throughout follow-up. 
 
9.2 
Response Criteria 
 
Evaluation of target lesions 
Complete Response (CR) 
Disappearance of all target lesions.  Any pathological 
lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have 
reduction in short axis to <10 mm.
Partial Response (PR) 
At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of 
target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum 
diameters
Progressive Disease (PD) 
At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of 
target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on 
study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the 
smallest on study).  In addition to the relative increase of 
20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase 
of at least 5 mm.  (Note:  the appearance of one or more 
new lesions is also considered progressions). 
Stable Disease (SD) 
Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor 
sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference 
the smallest sum diameters while on study. 

Clinical Study Protocol 
HCRN GU17-294 
Version Date: 28MAR2019 
Confidential 
Page 34 of 69 
Evaluation of non-target lesions 
Complete Response (CR) 
Disappearance of all non-target lesions and 
normalization of tumor marker level.  All lymph 
nodes must be non-pathological in size (<10 mm 
short axis) 
 
NOTE:  If tumor markers are initially above the 
upper normal limit, they must normalize for a 
subject to be considered in complete clinical 
response.
Non-CR/ Non-PD 
Persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) 
and/or maintenance of tumor marker level above 
the normal limits
Progressive Disease (PD) 
Appearance of one or more new lesions and/or 
unequivocal progression of existing non-target 
lesions.  Unequivocal progression should not 
normally trump target lesion status.  It must be 
representative of overall disease status change, not 
a single lesion increase.
*Although a clear progression of “non target” lesions only is exceptional, in such 
circumstances, the opinion of the site physician should prevail. 
 
9.3 
Evaluation of best overall response 
The best overall response is the best response recorded from the start of the treatment until 
disease progression/recurrence (taking as reference for PD the smallest measurements recorded 
since the treatment started). In general, the subject's best response assignment will depend on the 
achievement of both measurement and confirmation criteria.

Subjects with a global deterioration of health status requiring discontinuation of treatment 
without objective evidence of disease progression at that time should be classified as having 
“symptomatic deterioration”.  Every effort should be made to document the objective 
progression even after discontinuation of treatment. In some circumstances it may be difficult to 

Clinical Study Protocol

Page 35 of 69 
distinguish residual disease from normal tissue.  When the evaluation of complete response 
depends on this determination, it is recommended that the residual lesion be investigated (fine 
needle aspirate/biopsy) to confirm the complete response status. 
 
9.4 
Definitions for Response Evaluation – RECIST 1.1 
 
9.4.1 First documentation of response 
The time between initiation of therapy and first documentation of PR or CR. 
 
9.4.2 Confirmation of Response 
To be assigned a status of complete or partial response, changes in tumor measurements must be 
confirmed by repeat assessments performed no less than four weeks after the criteria for response 
are first met. 
 
9.4.3 Duration of Response 
Duration of overall response—the period measured from the time that measurement criteria are 
met for complete or partial response (whichever status is recorded first) until the date that 
recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented, taking as reference the smallest 
measurements recorded since treatment started. 
 
9.4.4 Duration of Overall Complete Response 
The period measured from the time that measurement criteria are met for complete response until 
the first date that recurrent disease is objectively documented. 
 
9.4.5 Objective response rate 
The objective response rate is the proportion of all subjects with confirmed PR or CR according 
to RECIST, from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence (taking as reference 
for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded since the start of treatment). 
 
9.4.6 Progression Free Survival 
A measurement from the start of the treatment until the criteria for disease progression is met or 
death occurs, taking as reference the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started.   
 
Progression free survival will be measured from the date of initial treatment to the earliest date of 
disease progression, resection of measurable tumor or death for subjects who fail; and to the date 
of last contact for subjects who remain at risk for failure.

DRUG INFORMATION 
 
10.1 
Tremelimumab 
Tremelimumab is an anti-CTLA-4 antibody being explored as a single-agent, and in combination 
with durvalumab, for the treatment of several malignancies.  
 
10.1.1 Supplier/How Supplied 
Tremelimumab will be supplied by AstraZeneca. Tremelimumab is formulated at 20 mg/mL in 
20 mM histidine/histidine-HCl, 22 mM trehalose dihydrate, 0.02% (w/v) polysorbate 80, and 
0.27 mM disodium edetate dihydrate, pH 5.5. The investigational product is supplied as a sterile 
liquid solution containing either 400 mg (nominal) tremelimumab per vial or 25 mg (nominal) 
per vial. The nominal fill volume for the 400 mg presentation is 20.0 mL and the nominal fill 
volume for the 25 mg presentation is 1.25 mL. Investigational product vials are stored at 2°C to 
8°C (36°F to 46°F) and must not be frozen. Drug product should be kept in secondary container 
until use to prevent excessive light exposure. 
 
10.1.2 Preparation  
Total time from needle puncture of the tremelimumab vial to the start of administration should not 
exceed:  
 24 hours at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F) 
 4 hours at room temperature 
 
Tremelimumab will be administered using an IV bag containing 0.9% (w/v) saline or 5% (w/v) 
dextrose, with a final tremelimumab concentration ranging from 0.10 to 10 mg/mL, and 
delivered through an IV administration set with a 0.2- or 0.22-μm in-line filter. The IV bag size 
should be selected such that the final concentration is within 0.10 to 10 mg/mL. Mix the bag by 
gently inverting to ensure homogeneity of the dose in the bag.  
 
Standard infusion time is 1 hour. However, if there are interruptions during infusion, the total 
allowed time should not exceed 8 hours at room temperature. Do not co-administer other drugs 
through the same infusion line. 
 
In the event that either preparation time or infusion time exceeds the time limits a new dose must 
be prepared from new vials. Tremelimumab does not contain preservatives, and any unused 
portion must be discarded.  
 
10.1.3 Dispensing 
Tremelimumab must be dispensed only from official study sites and to eligible subjects under the 
supervision of the site investigator. Tremelimumab should be stored in a secure area according to 
local regulations. It is the responsibility of the site investigator to ensure that study drug is only 
dispensed to subjects.   
 
10.1.4 Adverse Events 
Risks with tremelimumab monotherapy include, but are not limited to, GI effects (colitis, 
diarrhea, enterocolitis and intestinal perforation), endocrine disorders (hypo and 
hyperthyroidism, hypophysitis and adrenal insufficiency), skin effects (rash, and pruritus), 
elevations in lipase and amylase and clinical manifestations of pancreatitis, other gastrointestinal

events e.g. ulcerative colitis, dehydration, nausea and vomiting; hepatic events including 
hepatitis, and liver enzyme elevations; pneumonitis and ILD; nervous system events including 
encephalitis, peripheral motor and sensory neuropathies, Guillain-Barre and proximal muscle 
weakness; cytopenias including thrombocytopenia, anemia and neutropenia; infusion-related 
reactions, anaphylaxis, and allergic reactions; renal events including renal failure, acute kidney 
injury, nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, autoimmune nephritis and electrolyte abnormalities such 
as hypokalemia; autoimmune diseases including autoimmune arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome and 
giant cell temporal arteritis; hyperglycemia and diabetes mellitus; and pyrexia. For information 
on all identified and potential risks with tremelimumab please always refer to the current version 
of the tremelimumab IB. Using pooled data from monotherapy clinical studies AEs (all grades) 
reported very commonly (≥ 10% of patients) were diarrhea, nausea, fatigue, pruritus, decreased 
appetite, rash, vomiting, dyspnea, constipation, cough, pyrexia, abdominal pain, decreased 
weight, headache, asthenia, and anemia. Approximately 16% of patients experienced an AE that 
resulted in permanent discontinuation of tremelimumab and approximately 45% of patients 
experienced an SAE.

ADVERSE EVENTS 
The descriptions and grading scales found in the NCI CTCAE v4.03 will be utilized for AE 
assessment. A copy of the CTCAE v4.03 can be downloaded from the CTEP website at 
http://ctep.cancer.gov. All forms for AE/SAE recording and reporting can be found in the Study 
Procedure Manual or in the EDC system (Documents and Information Tab). 
 
11.1 
Definitions 
 
11.1.1 Adverse Event (AE) 
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence whether or not considered related to the study drug 
that appears to change in intensity during the course of the study. The following are examples of 
AEs:  
 Unintended or unfavorable sign or symptom 
 A disease temporally associated with participation in the protocol 
 An intercurrent illness or injury that impairs the well-being of the subject 
 
Abnormal laboratory values or diagnostic test results constitute AEs only if they induce clinical 
signs or symptoms or require treatment or further diagnostic tests   
 
Hospitalization for elective surgery or routine clinical procedures that are not the result of an AE 
(e.g., surgical insertion of central line) should not be recorded as an AE.  
 
Disease progression should not be recorded as an AE, unless it is attributable to the study 
regimen by the site investigator.

11.1.2 Serious Adverse Event (SAE) 
A SAE is an adverse event that: 
 Results in death. NOTE: Death due to disease progression should not be reported as a 
SAE, unless it is attributable by the site investigator to the study drug(s) 
 Is life-threatening (defined as an event in which the subject was at risk of death at the 
time of the event; it does not refer to an event which hypothetically might have caused 
death if it were more severe) 
 Requires inpatient hospitalization for >24 hours or prolongation of existing 
hospitalization. NOTE: Hospitalization for anticipated or protocol specified procedures 
such as administration of chemotherapy, central line insertion, metastasis interventional 
therapy, resection of primary tumor, or elective surgery, will not be considered serious 
adverse events. 
 Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 
 Is a congenital anomaly or birth defect 
 Is an important medical event (defined as a medical event(s) that may not be immediately 
life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but, based upon appropriate medical 
and scientific judgment, may jeopardize the subject or may require intervention (e.g., 
medical, surgical) to prevent one of the other serious outcomes listed in the definition 
above). Examples of such events include, but are not limited to, intensive treatment in an 
emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or convulsions 
not resulting in hospitalization; or the development of drug dependency or drug abuse. 
 
11.1.3 Adverse Events of Special Interest  
An adverse event of special interest (AESI) is one of scientific and medical interest specific to 
understanding of the study drug(s) and may require close monitoring and rapid communication 
by the site investigator to the sponsor-investigator. An AESI may be serious or non-serious. The 
rapid reporting of AESIs allows ongoing surveillance of these events in order to characterize and 
understand them in association with the use of the study drug(s). If any AESI occurs in the 
course of the study, then the site investigators or other site personnel should report to Hoosier 
Cancer Research Network (HCRN) within 1 business day of becoming aware of the event. 
HCRN will report to AstraZeneca within 1 business day of becoming aware of the event. AESIs 
for tremelimumab include, but are not limited to, events with a potential inflammatory or 
immune-mediated mechanism and that may require more frequent monitoring and/or 
interventions such as steroids, immunosuppressants, and/or hormone replacement therapy. These 
AESIs are being closely monitored in clinical studies with tremelimumab therapy.  
 
An imAE is defined as an AE that is associated with drug exposure and is consistent with an 
immune-mediated mechanism of action and where there is no clear alternate etiology. Serologic, 
immunologic, and histologic (biopsy) data, as appropriate, should be used to support an imAE 
diagnosis. Appropriate efforts should be made to rule out neoplastic, infectious, metabolic, toxin, 
or other etiologic causes of the imAE. In the event of imAE or suspected imAE, the sponsor-
investigator may request relevant clinical information (including images) for those subjects who 
demonstrate the event and may request the independent review by external experts based on the 
acquired clinical information. 
 

Clinical Study Protocol 
HCRN GU17-294 
Version Date: 28MAR2019 
Confidential 
Page 39 of 69 
If the site investigator has any questions with regards to an AE being an imAE, the site 
investigator should immediately contact the sponsor-investigator. 
AESIs observed with tremelimumab include the following: 
 Diarrhea/Colitis and intestinal perforation 
 Pneumonitis/Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) 
 Hepatitis/transaminase increases  
 Neuropathy / neuromuscular toxicity (e.g. Guillain-Barré, and myasthenia gravis) 
 Endocrinopathy (ie, events of hypophysitis, adrenal insufficiency, and hyperthyroidism 
and hypothyroidism, Type I diabetes) 
 Rash/Dermatitis 
 Nephritis/Blood creatinine increases 
 Pancreatitis/ serum lipase and amylase increases 
 Myocarditis 
 Myositis/Polymyositis 
 Other inflammatory responses that are rare / less frequent with a potential immune-
mediated aetiology include, but are not limited to, pericarditis, sarcoidosis, uveitis and 
other events involving the eye, skin, haematological and rheumatological events. 
 
In addition, infusion-related reactions and hypersensitivity/anaphylactic reactions with a different 
underlying pharmacological etiology are also considered AESIs. Further information on these 
risks (e.g. presenting symptoms) can be found in the current version of the tremelimumab 
Investigator’s Brochure. More specific guidelines for their evaluation and treatment are 
described in detail in the Dosing Modification and Toxicity Management Guidelines (please see 
Appendix 1). These guidelines have been prepared by the Funder to assist the investigators in the 
exercise of his/her clinical judgment in treating these types of toxicities. These guidelines apply 
to AEs considered causally related to the study drug/study regimen by the reporting investigator) 
 
11.1.4 Unexpected Adverse Event 
For this study, an AE is considered unexpected when it varies in nature, intensity or frequency 
from information provided in the current IB, prescribing information or when it is not included in 
the informed consent document as a potential risk. Unexpected also refers to AEs that are 
mentioned in the IB as occurring with a class of drugs or are anticipated from the 
pharmacological properties of the drug, but are not specifically mentioned as occurring with the 
particular drug under investigation.   
 
11.1.5 Relatedness 
AEs will be categorized according to the likelihood that they are related to the study drug(s). 
Specifically, they will be categorized using the following terms:  
 
Unrelated 
Adverse Event is not related to the study drug(s)  
Unlikely 
Adverse Event is doubtfully related to the study drug(s)  
Possible 
Adverse Event may be related to the study drug(s)  
Probable 
Adverse Event is likely related to the study drug(s)  
Definite 
Adverse Event is clearly related to the study drug(s)

11.6.2 Pregnancy 
All pregnancies and outcomes of pregnancy should be reported to AstraZeneca except for: 
 Pregnancy discovered before the study subject has received any study drugs. 
 Pregnancy of a female partner of male subject, providing there is no restriction of male 
subject fathering a child. 
 
11.6.3 Maternal exposure 
If a patient becomes pregnant during the course of the study, the study drug(s) should be 
discontinued immediately. Pregnancy itself is not regarded as an AE unless there is a suspicion 
that the study drug(s) may have interfered with the effectiveness of a contraceptive medication. 
Congenital abnormalities or birth defects and spontaneous miscarriages should be reported and 
handled as SAEs. Elective abortions without complications should not be handled as AEs. The 
outcome of all pregnancies (spontaneous miscarriage, elective termination, ectopic pregnancy, 
normal birth, or congenital abnormality) should be followed up and documented even if the 
patient was discontinued from the study.  
 
If any pregnancy occurs in the course of the study, then the site investigator or other site 
personnel will inform HCRN within 1 business day of becoming aware of the event. HCRN will 
report the event to AstraZeneca within 1 business day of becoming aware of the event.  
 
11.6.4 Paternal exposure  
Male subjects should refrain from fathering a child or donating sperm during the study and for 
90 days after the last dose of tremelimumab.  Pregnancy of the patient’s partner is not considered 
to be an AE. However, the outcome of all pregnancies (spontaneous miscarriage, elective 
termination, ectopic pregnancy, normal birth, or congenital abnormality) occurring from the date 
of the first dose until 90 days after the last dose of tremelimumab therapy should, if possible, be 
followed up and documented.  
 
11.6.5 Reporting of deaths to AstraZeneca 
All deaths that occur during the study, or within the protocol-defined 90-day post-last dose of 
tremelimumab safety follow-up period must be reported to AstraZeneca as follows: 
 Death that is clearly the result of disease progression should be documented but should 
not be reported as an SAE. 
 Where death is not due (or not clearly due) to progression of the disease under study, the 
AE causing the death must be reported to HCRN within 24 hours and HCRN will report 
to AstraZeneca as a SAE within 24 hours. The report should contain a comment 
regarding the co-involvement of progression of disease, if appropriate, and should assign 
main and contributory causes of death.  
 Deaths with an unknown cause should always be reported as a SAE.

STATISTICAL METHODS 
 
12.1 
Study Design 
This is a phase II trial designed to estimate the activity of single agent tremelimumab in subjects 
with metastatic urothelial cancer with disease progression despite prior treatment with PD-1/PD-
L1 blockade. There is currently no standard treatment for such subjects. Therefore, given the 
durability of responses observed with immune checkpoint blockade, even a relatively low 
response proportion could be clinically meaningful. A Simon’s 2-stage design will be applied.    
 
12.2 
Endpoints 
 
12.2.1 Definition of Primary Endpoint 
The primary endpoint is to determine the response rate by RECIST 1.1 
 
12.2.2 Definition of Secondary Endpoints 
 Safety will be determined according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for 
Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v4.03 
 Duration of response will be the time from the first documentation of response to the time 
of progression as per RECIST 1.1 or death  
 Progression-free survival which is defined as the time from treatment initiation to death 
or progression, depending on which occurs first 
 Overall survival is defined as the time from treatment initiation to death  
 
12.3 
Sample Size and Accrual 
A Simon’s 2-stage design14 will be applied. Patients who do not receive drug or who do not 
complete 1 cycle of therapy for non-treatment related causes (eg, traffic accidents, trauma etc) 
will be replaced.  
 
The null hypothesis that the true response rate is 2% will be tested against a one-sided 
alternative. In the first stage, 18 subjects will be accrued. If there are 0 responses in these 18 
subjects, enrollment will be stopped. Otherwise, 10 additional subjects will be accrued for a total 
of 28. The null hypothesis will be rejected if 3 or more responses are observed in 28 subjects. 
This design yields a type I error rate of 0.02 and power of 80% when the true response rate is 
15% or larger. 
 
12.4 
Assessment of Safety 
The safety population will be defined as any patients that receive at least one dose of 
tremelimumab and will be used in the assessment of toxicity. Safety will be determined 
according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v4.03. 
All subjects will be evaluable for adverse event evaluation from the time of their first dose of 
study treatment.   
 
12.5 
Assessment of Efficacy 
All subjects who have received at least one cycle of therapy and have had their disease re-
evaluated will be considered evaluable for response (exceptions will be those who exhibit 
objective disease progression prior to the end of Cycle 1 who will also be considered evaluable).

Patients who do not receive drug or who do not complete 1 cycle of therapy for non-treatment 
related causes will be replaced. 
 
12.6 
Data Analysis Plans 
 
12.6.1 Analysis Plans for Primary Objective 
All subjects with measurable disease who have received at least one cycle of treatment and have 
their disease re-evaluated will be evaluable for assessment of objective response. The objective 
response rates as determined by RECIST 1.1 and their associated 95% confidence intervals will 
be constructed based on the exact binomial test.  
 
12.6.2 Analysis Plans for Secondary Objectives 
Any subject who receives at least one dose of treatment on this protocol is evaluable for toxicity. 
Toxicity rates will be summarized using frequency tables. Disease control rates will be analyzed 
based on the exact binomial test. Duration of response will be the time from the first 
documentation of response to the time of progression or death will be summarized using 
frequency tables. Progression free survival and overall survival curves will be based on the 
Kaplan-Meier method.  
 
12.6.3 Analysis Plans for Exploratory Objectives 
To explore the relationship between PD-L1 expression and response to treatment, Fisher's exact 
test will be used. To explore the relationship between molecular subtype of bladder cancer and 
response to treatment, frequency tables will be constructed and Fisher's exact test will be used.  
To explore the relationship between genomic alterations, including mutational load, and changes 
in circulating immune biomarkers and response to treatment both Fisher's exact test and T-test 
will be used. Exploratory analyses correlating clinical outcomes and adverse events with stool 
microbiome diversity/composition as well as assessment of metabolomics and metagenomic 
whole genome sequencing may also be performed.  
 
12.7 
Interim Analysis/Criteria for Stopping Study 
Though there has been limited experience with single agent CTLA-4 blockade in metastatic 
urothelial cancer, prior studies exploring combination PD-1/PD-L1 plus CTLA-4 blockade in 
metastatic urothelial cancer have reported a treatment-related Grade ≥ 3 adverse event rate of 
approximately 30%.15 A stopping rule for excessive toxicity will be employed after 6, 12, 18, 
and 24 subjects finish at least one cycle of treatment. This safety stopping rule will be performed 
with respect to all treatment-related Grade ≥ 3 adverse events. Two-sided 95% exact binomial 
confidence intervals (CIs) of these treatment-related Grade ≥ 3 adverse event rates will be 
constructed. If their lower bounds exceed 33%, the study drug will be considered unacceptably 
toxic for this patient population and enrollment will be halted. This corresponds to ≥ 5 out of 6 
patients with grade ≥ 3 adverse events, ≥ 8 out of 12 patients with grade ≥ 3 adverse events, ≥ 10 
out of 18 patients with grade ≥ 3 adverse events , and ≥ 13 out of 24 subjects with grade ≥ 3 
adverse events. 
 
There is a possibility of stopping at the 1st stage if no patients respond to treatment. In addition, 
the study accrual may be suspended in the case when none of the first 17 patients respond and 

Clinical Study Protocol

the decision to move onto the 2nd stage hinges on the response of the 18th patient. Otherwise, 
during these safety analyses, enrollment will continue.

13.1 
Data and Safety Monitoring Plan (DSMP) 
The study will be conducted with guidance from the Tisch Cancer Institute Cancer Center’s 
DSMP.  
 
HCRN oversight activities include: 
 Review and process all adverse events requiring expedited reporting as defined in the 
protocol 
 Provide trial accrual progress, safety information, and data summary reports to the 
sponsor-investigator  
 Submit data summary reports at least every 6 months to the DSMC for review according 
to the Tisch Cancer Institute Cancer Center’s DSMP 
 
13.2 
Tisch Cancer Institute Cancer Center Data Safety Monitoring Committee 
HCRN will provide the following for the DSMC to review: 
 Adverse event summary report 
 Audit results, if applicable 
 Data related to stopping/decision rules described in study design 
 Study accrual patterns  
 Protocol deviations 
 
The DSMC will review study data at least every 6 months. Documentation of DSMC reviews 
will be provided to sponsor-investigator and HCRN.  Issues of immediate concern by the DSMC 
will brought to the attention of the sponsor-investigator and other regulatory bodies as 
appropriate.  The sponsor-investigator will work with HCRN to address the DSMC’s concerns.   
 
13.3 
Data Quality Oversight Activities 
Remote validation of EDC system data will be completed on a continual basis throughout the life 
cycle of the study. Automated edit check listings will be used to generate queries in the EDC 
system and transmitted to the site to address in a timely fashion. Corrections will be made by the 
study site personnel.  
 
Participating sites may also be subject to quality assurance audits by AstraZeneca-MedImmune 
or its designee as well as inspection by appropriate regulatory agencies. 
 
13.3.1 Onsite Monitoring 
Monitoring visits to the trial sites may be made periodically during the trial to ensure key aspects 
of the protocol are followed. Selected source documents will be reviewed for verification of 
agreement with data entered into the EDC system.  It is important for the site investigator and 
their relevant personnel to be available for a sufficient amount of time during the monitoring 
visits or audit, if applicable. The site investigator and institution guarantee access to source 
documents by HCRN or its designee.

Compliance with Trial Registration and Results Posting Requirements 
Under the terms of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act (FDAMA) and the 
Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act (FDAAA), the sponsor-investigator of the trial 
is solely responsible for determining whether the trial and its results are subject to the 
requirements for submission to the Clinical Trials Data Bank, http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. All 
results of primary and secondary objectives must be posted to CT.gov within a year of 
completion.  The sponsor-investigator has delegated responsibility to HCRN for registering the 
trial and posting the results on clinicaltrials.gov. Information posted will allow subjects to 
identify potentially appropriate trials for their disease conditions and pursue participation by 
calling a central contact number for further information on appropriate trial locations and study 
site contact information.   
 
14. 
DATA HANDLING AND RECORD KEEPING 
 
14.1 
Data Management 
HCRN will serve as the Clinical Research Organization for this trial. Data will be collected 
through a web based clinical research platform, a system compliant with Good Clinical Practices 
and Federal Rules and Regulations.  HCRN personnel will coordinate and manage data for 
quality control assurance and integrity. Select data will be collected and entered into the EDC 
system  by study site personnel from participating institutions.   
 
14.2 
Case Report Forms and Submission 
Generally, clinical data will be electronically captured in the EDC system and correlative results 
will be captured in the EDC system or other secure database(s). If procedures on the study 
calendar are performed for standard of care, at minimum, that data will be captured in the source 
document. Select standard of care data will also be captured in the EDC system, according to 
study-specific objectives.  
 
The completed dataset is the sole property of the sponsor-investigator’s institution and should 
not be exported to third parties, except for authorized representatives of appropriate 
Health/Regulatory Authorities, without permission from the sponsor-investigator and HCRN. 
 
14.3 
Record Retention 
To enable evaluations and/or audits from Health Authorities/HCRN, the site investigator agrees 
to keep records, including the identity of all subjects (sufficient information to link records; e.g., 
hospital records), all original signed informed consent forms, copies of all source documents, and 
detailed records of drug disposition. All source documents are to remain in the subject’s file and 
retained by the site investigator in compliance with the site contract with HCRN.  No records 
will be destroyed until HCRN confirms destruction is permitted. 
 
14.4 
Confidentiality 
There is a slight risk of loss of confidentiality of subject information. All records identifying the 
subjects will be kept confidential and, to the extent permitted by the applicable laws and/or 
regulations, will not be made publicly available. Information collected will be maintained on 
secure, password protected electronic systems. Paper files that contain personal information will 
be kept in locked and secure locations only accessible to the study site personnel. Subjects will

ETHICS 
 
15.1 
Institutional Review Board (IRB) Approval 
The final study protocol and the final version of the informed consent form must be approved in 
writing by an IRB. The site investigator must submit written approval by the IRB to HCRN 
before he or she can enroll subjects into the study.   
 
The site investigator is responsible for informing the IRB of any amendment to the protocol in 
accordance with local requirements. In addition, the IRB must approve all advertising used to 
recruit subjects for the study. The protocol must be re-approved by the IRB, as local regulations 
require.  
 
Progress reports and notifications of serious and unexpected adverse events will be provided to 
the IRB according to local regulations and guidelines. 
 
15.2 
Ethical Conduct of the Study 
The study will be performed in accordance with ethical principles originating from the 
Declaration of Helsinki.  Conduct of the study will be in compliance with ICH Good Clinical 
Practice, and with all applicable federal (including 21 CFR parts 56 & 50), state, or local laws. 
 
15.3 
Informed Consent Process 
The site investigator will ensure the subject is given full and adequate oral and written 
information about the nature, purpose, possible risks and benefits of the study. Subjects must 
also be notified they are free to discontinue from the study at any time. The subject should be 
given the opportunity to ask questions and allowed time to consider the information provided.

APPENDIX 1 
Dosing Modification and Toxicity Management Guidelines for Immune-Mediated, Infusion-Related, and  
Non-Immune–Mediated Reactions  
General Considerations 
Dose Modifications 
Toxicity Management 
Drug administration modifications of study drug/study regimen 
will be made to manage potential immune-related AEs based on 
severity of treatment-emergent toxicities graded per NCI CTCAE 
v4.03. 
In addition to the criteria for permanent discontinuation of study 
drug/study regimen based on CTC grade/severity (table below), 
permanently discontinue study drug/study regimen for the 
following conditions: 
 
Inability to reduce corticosteroid to a dose of ≤10 mg of 
prednisone per day (or equivalent) within 12 weeks after last 
dose of study drug/study regimen 
 
Recurrence of a previously experienced Grade 3 treatment-
related AE following resumption of dosing 
Grade 1 
No dose modification 
Grade 2 
Hold study drug/study regimen dose until Grade 2 
resolution to Grade ≤1. 
If toxicity worsens, then treat as Grade 3 or Grade 4. 
Study drug/study regimen can be resumed once event stabilizes to 
Grade ≤1 after completion of steroid taper. 
Patients with endocrinopathies who may require prolonged or 
continued steroid replacement can be retreated with study 
drug/study regimen on the following conditions: 
1. 
The event stabilizes and is controlled. 
2. 
The patient is clinically stable as per Investigator or treating 
physician’s clinical judgement. 
3. 
Doses of prednisone are at ≤10 mg/day or equivalent. 
It is recommended that management of immune-mediated adverse events (imAEs) follows the 
guidelines presented in this table: 
− 
It is possible that events with an inflammatory or immune mediated mechanism could occur 
in nearly all organs, some of them not noted specifically in these guidelines. 
− 
Whether specific immune-mediated events (and/or laboratory indicators of such events) are 
noted in these guidelines or not, patients should be thoroughly evaluated to rule out any 
alternative etiology (e.g., disease progression, concomitant medications, and infections) to a 
possible immune-mediated event. In the absence of a clear alternative etiology, all such 
events should be managed as if they were immune related. General recommendations 
follow. 
− 
Symptomatic and topical therapy should be considered for low-grade (Grade 1 or 2, unless 
otherwise specified) events.  
− 
For persistent (>3 to 5 days) low-grade (Grade 2) or severe (Grade ≥3) events, promptly 
start prednisone 1 to 2 mg/kg/day PO or IV equivalent. 
− 
Some events with high likelihood for morbidity and/or mortality – e.g., myo-carditis, or 
other similar events even if they are not currently noted in the guidelines – should progress 
rapidly to high dose IV corticosteroids (methylprednisolone at 2 to 4 mg/kg/day) even if the 
event is Grade 2, and if clinical suspicion is high and/or there has been clinical 
confirmation. Consider, as necessary, discussing with the study physician, and promptly 
pursue specialist consultation. 
− 
If symptoms recur or worsen during corticosteroid tapering (28 days of taper), increase the 
corticosteroid dose (prednisone dose [e.g., up to 2 to 4 mg/kg/day PO or IV equivalent]) 
until stabilization or improvement of symptoms, then resume corticosteroid tapering at a 
slower rate (>28 days of taper). 
− 
More potent immunosuppressives such as TNF inhibitors (e.g., infliximab) (also refer to the 
individual sections of the imAEs for specific type of immunosuppressive) should be 
considered for events not responding to systemic steroids. Progression to use of more potent 
immunosuppressives should proceed more rapidly in events with high likelihood for 
morbidity and/or mortality – e.g., myocarditis, or other similar events even if they are not 
currently noted in the guidelines – when these events are not responding to systemic 
steroids. 
− 
With long-term steroid and other immunosuppressive use, consider need for Pneumocystis 
jirovecii pneumonia (PJP, formerly known as Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia) 
prophylaxis, gastrointestinal protection, and glucose monitoring.

Dosing Modification and Toxicity Management Guidelines for Immune-Mediated, Infusion-Related, and  
Non-Immune–Mediated Reactions  
General Considerations 
Dose Modifications 
Toxicity Management 
Grade 3 
Depending on the individual toxicity, study 
drug/study regimen may be permanently 
discontinued. Please refer to guidelines below. 
Grade 4 
Permanently discontinue study drug/study regimen. 
Note: For Grade ≥3 asymptomatic amylase or lipase levels, hold 
study drug/study regimen, and if complete work up shows no 
evidence of pancreatitis, study drug/study regimen may be 
continued or resumed. 
Note: Study drug/study regimen should be permanently 
discontinued in Grade 3 events with high likelihood for morbidity 
and/or mortality – e.g., myocarditis, or other similar events even if 
they are not currently noted in the guidelines. Similarly, consider 
whether study drug/study regimen should be permanently 
discontinued in Grade 2 events with high likelihood for morbidity 
and/or mortality – e.g., myocarditis, or other similar events even if 
they are not currently noted in the guidelines – when they do not 
rapidly improve to Grade <1 upon treatment with systemic steroids 
and following full taper 
Note: There are some exceptions to permanent discontinuation of 
study drug for Grade 4 events (i.e., hyperthyroidism, 
hypothyroidism, Type 1 diabetes mellitus).  
 
− 
Discontinuation of study drug/study regimen is not mandated for Grade 3/Grade 4 
inflammatory reactions attributed to local tumor response (e.g., inflammatory reaction at 
sites of metastatic disease and lymph nodes). Continuation of study drug/study regimen in 
this situation should be based upon a benefit-risk analysis for that patient.

Pneumonitis/Interstitial 
Lung Disease (ILD) 
Any Grade 
General Guidance 
For Any Grade: 
− 
Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of pneumonitis or 
ILD (new onset or worsening shortness of breath or cough). 
Patients should be evaluated with imaging and pulmonary 
function tests, including other diagnostic procedures as 
described below. 
− 
Initial work-up may include clinical evaluation, monitoring of 
oxygenation via pulse oximetry (resting and exertion), 
laboratory work-up, and high- resolution CT scan. 
Grade 1 
(asymptomatic, clinical 
or diagnostic 
observations only; 
intervention not 
indicated) 
No dose modifications required. However, 
consider holding study drug/study 
regimen dose as clinically appropriate and 
during diagnostic work-up for other 
etiologies. 
For Grade 1 (radiographic changes only): 
− 
Monitor and closely follow up in 2 to 4 days for clinical 
symptoms, pulse oximetry (resting and exertion), and 
laboratory work-up and then as clinically indicated. 
− 
Consider Pulmonary and Infectious disease consult. 
Grade 2 
(symptomatic; medical 
intervention indicated; 
limiting instrumental 
ADL) 
Hold study drug/study regimen dose until 
Grade 2 resolution to Grade ≤1. 
 
If toxicity worsens, then treat as 
Grade 3 or Grade 4. 
 
If toxicity improves to Grade ≤1, 
then the decision to reinitiate study 
drug/study regimen will be based 
upon treating physician’s clinical 
judgment and after completion of 
steroid taper. 
For Grade 2 (mild to moderate new symptoms): 
− 
Monitor symptoms daily and consider hospitalization. 
− 
Promptly start systemic steroids (e.g., prednisone 1 to 
2 mg/kg/day PO or IV equivalent). 
− 
Reimage as clinically indicated. 
− 
If no improvement within 3 to 5 days, additional workup 
should be considered and prompt treatment with IV 
methylprednisolone 2 to 4 mg/kg/day started 
− 
If still no improvement within 3 to 5 days despite IV 
methylprednisolone at 2 to 4 mg/kg/day, promptly start 
immunosuppressive therapy such as TNF inhibitors 
(e.g., infliximab at 5 mg/kg every 2 weeks). Caution: It is 
important to rule out sepsis and refer to infliximab label for 
general guidance before using infliximab. 
− 
Once the patient is improving, gradually taper steroids over 
≥28 days and consider prophylactic antibiotics, antifungals, or

treatment of cancer-related infections [Category 2B 
recommendation])a 
− 
Consider pulmonary and infectious disease consult. 
− 
Consider, as necessary, discussing with study physician. 
Grade 3 or 4 
(Grade 3: severe 
symptoms; limiting 
self-care ADL; oxygen 
indicated) 
 
(Grade 4: life-
threatening respiratory 
compromise; urgent 
intervention indicated 
[e.g., tracheostomy or 
intubation]) 
Permanently discontinue study drug/study 
regimen. 
For Grade 3 or 4 (severe or new symptoms, new/worsening hypoxia, 
life-threatening): 
− 
Promptly initiate empiric IV methylprednisolone 1 to 
4 mg/kg/day or equivalent. 
− 
Obtain Pulmonary and Infectious disease consult; consider, as 
necessary, discussing with study physician. 
− 
Hospitalize the patient. 
− 
Supportive care (e.g., oxygen). 
− 
If no improvement within 3 to 5 days, additional workup 
should be considered and prompt treatment with additional 
immunosuppressive therapy such as TNF inhibitors 
(e.g., infliximab at 5 mg/kg every 2 weeks’ dose) started. 
Caution: rule out sepsis and refer to infliximab label for general 
guidance before using infliximab. 
− 
Once the patient is improving, gradually taper steroids over 
≥28 days and consider prophylactic antibiotics, antifungals, 
and, in particular, anti-PJP treatment (refer to current NCCN 
guidelines for treatment of cancer-related infections [Category 
2B recommendation]).a 
Diarrhea/Colitis 
Any Grade 
General Guidance 
For Any Grade: 
− 
Monitor for symptoms that may be related to 
diarrhea/enterocolitis (abdominal pain, cramping, or changes in 
bowel habits such as increased frequency over baseline or 
blood in stool) or related to bowel perforation (such as sepsis, 
peritoneal signs, and ileus). 
− 
Patients should be thoroughly evaluated to rule out any 
alternative etiology (e.g., disease progression, other 
medications, or infections), including testing for clostridium 
difficile toxin, etc. 
− 
Steroids should be considered in the absence of clear 
alternative etiology, even for low-grade events, in order to 
prevent potential progression to higher grade event.

(Diarrhea: stool 
frequency of <4 over 
baseline per day) 
(Colitis: asymptomatic; 
clinical or diagnostic 
observations only) 
No dose modifications. 
For Grade 1: 
− 
Monitor closely for worsening symptoms. 
− 
Consider symptomatic treatment, including hydration, 
electrolyte replacement, dietary changes (e.g., American 
Dietetic Association colitis diet), and loperamide. Use 
probiotics as per treating physician’s clinical judgment. 
Grade 2 
(Diarrhea: stool 
frequency of 4 to 6 over 
baseline per day) 
(Colitis: abdominal 
pain; mucus or blood in 
stool) 
Hold study drug/study regimen 
until resolution to Grade ≤1

If toxicity improves to Grade ≤1, 
then study drug/study regimen can 
be resumed after completion of 
steroid taper. 
For Grade 2: 
− 
Consider symptomatic treatment, including hydration, 
electrolyte replacement, dietary changes (e.g., American 
Dietetic Association colitis diet), and loperamide and/or 
budesonide. 
− 
Promptly start prednisone 1 to 2 mg/kg/day PO or IV 
equivalent. 
− 
If event is not responsive within 3 to 5 days or worsens despite 
prednisone at 1 to 2 mg/kg/day PO or IV equivalent, GI consult 
should be obtained for consideration of further workup, such as 
imaging and/or colonoscopy, to confirm colitis and rule out 
perforation, and prompt treatment with IV methylprednisolone 
2 to 4 mg/kg/day started. 
− 
If still no improvement within 3 to 5 days despite 2 to 4 mg/kg 
IV methylprednisolone, promptly start immunosuppressives 
such as infliximab at 5 mg/kg once every 2 weeksa. Caution: it 
is important to rule out bowel perforation and refer to 
infliximab label for general guidance before using infliximab. 
− 
Consider, as necessary, discussing with study physician if no 
resolution to Grade ≤1 in 3 to 4 days. 
− 
Once the patient is improving, gradually taper steroids over 
≥28 days and consider prophylactic antibiotics, antifungals, and 
anti-PJP treatment (refer to current NCCN guidelines for 
treatment of cancer-related infections [Category 2B 
recommendation]).a

− 
Monitor for signs and symptoms that may be related to changes 
in renal function (e.g., routine urinalysis, elevated serum BUN 
and creatinine, decreased creatinine clearance, electrolyte 
imbalance, decrease in urine output, or proteinuria). 
− 
Patients should be thoroughly evaluated to rule out any 
alternative etiology (e.g., disease progression or infections).

Peripheral neuromotor 
syndromes 
(such as Guillain-Barre 
and myasthenia gravis) 
Any Grade 
General Guidance 
For Any Grade: 
− 
The prompt diagnosis of immune-mediated peripheral 
neuromotor syndromes is important, since certain patients may 
unpredictably experience acute decompensations that can result 
in substantial morbidity or in the worst case, death. Special care 
should be taken for certain sentinel symptoms that may predict 
a more severe outcome, such as prominent dysphagia, rapidly 
progressive weakness, and signs of respiratory insufficiency or 
autonomic instability. 
− 
Patients should be evaluated to rule out any alternative etiology 
(e.g., disease progression, infections, metabolic syndromes or 
medications). It should be noted that the diagnosis of immune-
mediated peripheral neuromotor syndromes can be particularly 
challenging in patients with underlying cancer, due to the 
multiple potential confounding effects of cancer (and its 
treatments) throughout the neuraxis. Given the importance of 
prompt and accurate diagnosis, it is essential to have a low 
threshold to obtain a neurological consult. 
− 
Neurophysiologic diagnostic testing (e.g., electromyogram and 
nerve conduction investigations, and “repetitive stimulation” if 
myasthenia is suspected) are routinely indicated upon suspicion 
of such conditions and may be best facilitated by means of a 
neurology consultation. 
− 
It is important to consider that the use of steroids as the primary 
treatment of Guillain-Barre is not typically considered 
effective. Patients requiring treatment should be started with IV 
IG and followed by plasmapheresis if not responsive to IV IG. 
 
Grade 1 
No dose modifications. 
For Grade 1: 
− 
Consider, as necessary, discussing with the study physician. 
− 
Care should be taken to monitor patients for sentinel symptoms 
of a potential decompensation as described above. 
− 
Obtain a neurology consult. 
Grade 2 
Hold study drug/study regimen 
dose until resolution to Grade ≤1. 
Permanently discontinue study 
drug/study regimen if it does not 
resolve to Grade ≤1 within 30 days

or if there are signs of respiratory 
insufficiency or autonomic 
instability. 
− 
Sensory neuropathy/neuropathic pain may be managed by 
appropriate medications (e.g., gabapentin or duloxetine). 
MYASTHENIA GRAVIS: 
o 
Steroids may be successfully used to treat myasthenia 
gravis. It is important to consider that steroid therapy 
(especially with high doses) may result in transient 
worsening of myasthenia and should typically be 
administered in a monitored setting under supervision 
of a consulting neurologist. 
o 
Patients unable to tolerate steroids may be candidates 
for treatment with plasmapheresis or IV IG. Such 
decisions are best made in consultation with a 
neurologist, taking into account the unique needs of 
each patient. 
o 
If myasthenia gravis-like neurotoxicity is present, 
consider starting AChE inhibitor therapy in addition 
to steroids. Such therapy, if successful, can also serve 
to reinforce the diagnosis. 
GUILLAIN-BARRE: 
o 
It is important to consider here that the use of steroids 
as the primary treatment of Guillain-Barre is not 
typically considered effective. 
o 
Patients requiring treatment should be started with IV 
IG and followed by plasmapheresis if not responsive 
to IV IG. 
 
Grade 3 or 4 
For Grade 3: 
Hold study drug/study regimen 
dose until resolution to Grade ≤1. 
Permanently discontinue study 
drug/study regimen if Grade 3 
imAE does not resolve to Grade ≤1 
within 30 days or if there are signs 
of respiratory insufficiency or 
autonomic instability. 
 
For Grade 3 or 4 (severe or life-threatening events): 
− 
Consider, as necessary, discussing with study physician. 
− 
Recommend hospitalization. 
− 
Monitor symptoms and obtain neurological consult. 
MYASTHENIA GRAVIS:

Myocarditis 
Any Grade 
General Guidance 
Discontinue drug permanently if 
biopsy-proven immune-mediated 
myocarditis. 
For Any Grade: 
− 
The prompt diagnosis of immune-mediated myocarditis is 
important, particularly in patients with baseline 
cardiopulmonary disease and reduced cardiac function.  
− 
Consider, as necessary, discussing with the study physician. 
− 
Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of myocarditis (new 
onset or worsening chest pain, arrhythmia, shortness of breath, 
peripheral edema). As some symptoms can overlap with lung 
toxicities, simultaneously evaluate for and rule out pulmonary 
toxicity as well as other causes (e.g., pulmonary embolism, 
congestive heart failure, malignant pericardial effusion). A 
Cardiology consultation should be obtained early, with prompt 
assessment of whether and when to complete a cardiac biopsy, 
including any other diagnostic procedures. 
− 
Initial work-up should include clinical evaluation, BNP, 
cardiac enzymes, ECG, echocardiogram (ECHO), monitoring 
of oxygenation via pulse oximetry (resting and exertion), and 
additional laboratory work-up as indicated. Spiral CT or 
cardiac MRI can complement ECHO to assess wall motion 
abnormalities when needed. 
− 
Patients should be thoroughly evaluated to rule out any 
alternative etiology (e.g., disease progression, other 
medications, or infections) 
 
Grade 1 
No dose modifications required 
unless clinical suspicion is high, in 
which case hold study drug/study

For Grade 2-4: 
− 
Monitor symptoms daily, hospitalize. 
− 
Promptly start IV methylprednisolone 2 to 4 mg/kg/day or 
equivalent after Cardiology consultation has determined 
whether and when to complete diagnostic procedures including 
a cardiac biopsy. 
− 
Supportive care (e.g., oxygen). 
− 
If no improvement within 3 to 5 days despite IV 
methylprednisolone at 2 to 4 mg/kg/day, promptly start 
immunosuppressive therapy such as TNF inhibitors 
(e.g., infliximab at 5 mg/kg every 2 weeks). Caution: It is 
important to rule out sepsis and refer to infliximab label for 
general guidance before using infliximab. 
− 
Once the patient is improving, gradually taper steroids over 
≥28 days and consider prophylactic antibiotics, antifungals, or 
anti-PJP treatment (refer to current NCCN guidelines for 
treatment of cancer-related infections [Category 2B 
recommendation]).a 
Myositis/Polymyositis 
(“Poly/myositis”) 
Any Grade 
General Guidance 
For Any Grade: 
− 
Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of poly/myositis. 
Typically, muscle weakness/pain occurs in proximal muscles 
including upper arms, thighs, shoulders, hips, neck and back, 
but rarely affects the extremities including hands and fingers; 
also difficulty breathing and/or trouble swallowing can occur 
and progress rapidly. Increased general feelings of tiredness 
and fatigue may occur, and there can be new-onset falling, 
difficulty getting up from a fall, and trouble climbing stairs, 
standing up from a seated position, and/or reaching up. 
− 
If poly/myositis is suspected, a Neurology consultation should 
be obtained early, with prompt guidance on diagnostic 
procedures. Myocarditis may co-occur with poly/myositis; 
refer to guidance under Myocarditis. Given breathing 
complications, refer to guidance under Pneumonitis/ILD.

Given possibility of an existent (but previously unknown) 
autoimmune disorder, consider Rheumatology consultation. 
− 
Consider, as necessary, discussing with the study physician. 
− 
Initial work-up should include clinical evaluation, creatine 
kinase, aldolase, LDH, BUN/creatinine, erythrocyte 
sedimentation rate or C-reactive protein level, urine myoglobin, 
and additional laboratory work-up as indicated, including a 
number of possible rheumatological/antibody tests (i.e., 
consider whether a rheumatologist consultation is indicated and 
could guide need for rheumatoid factor, antinuclear antibody, 
anti-smooth muscle, antisynthetase [such as anti-Jo-1], and/or 
signal-recognition particle antibodies). Confirmatory testing 
may include electromyography, nerve conduction studies, MRI 
of the muscles, and/or a muscle biopsy. Consider Barium 
swallow for evaluation of dysphagia or dysphonia. 
Patients should be thoroughly evaluated to rule out any alternative 
etiology (e.g., disease progression, other medications, or infections).

If clinical course is rapidly progressive (particularly if 
difficulty breathing and/or trouble swallowing), promptly start 
IV methylprednisolone 2 to 4 mg/kg/day systemic steroids 
along with receiving input from Neurology consultant  
− 
If clinical course is not rapidly progressive, start systemic 
steroids (e.g., prednisone 1 to 2 mg/kg/day PO or IV 
equivalent); if no improvement within 3 to 5 days, continue 
additional work up and start treatment with IV 
methylprednisolone 2 to 4 mg/kg/day 
− 
If after start of IV methylprednisolone at 2 to 4 mg/kg/day 
there is no improvement within 3 to 5 days, consider start of 
immunosuppressive therapy such as TNF inhibitors 
(e.g., infliximab at 5 mg/kg every 2 weeks). Caution: It is
