Brief summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cadonilimab(AK104) combined with Nab -Paclitaxel as first line therapy for recurrent or metastatic muscle invasive bladder. Eligible participants will receive AK104 (up to 24 months) plus Nab-Paclitaxel (for 6 cycles) until radiologic disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal from the study, whichever occurred first. The primary endpoint is objective response rate.

Detailed description: Cadonilimab(AK104) is a first-in-class bispecific, humanized IgG1 antibody targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4, which has the potential to boost immune surveillance in tumors. The goal of this clinical phase II trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AK104 combined with Nab-Paclitaxel as first line therapy for recurrent or metastatic muscle invasive bladder.

Non surgically sterilized female patients of childbearing age must have a negative serum or urine HCG test within 7 days before enrollment in the study. And it must be non lactating.

11. The subjects voluntarily joined this study with good compliance, safety, and survival follow-up.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. The subject has previously or simultaneously suffered from other malignant tumors (excluding cured skin basal cell carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ).
2. The subject is known to have previous allergies to macromolecular protein formulations or known to be allergic to the drug components used.
3. The subject has any active autoimmune disease or a history of autoimmune disease (For example, but not limited to: autoimmune hepatitis, interstitial pneumonia, uveitis, enteritis, hepatitis, pituitary inflammation, vasculitis, nephritis, hyperthyroidism, decreased thyroid function, who have undergone thyroid surgery in the past cannot be included. subjects with vitiligo or complete remission of childhood asthma, who do not require any intervention in adulthood, can be included. subjects who require bronchodilators for medical intervention) Asthma cannot be included).
4. The subject is currently using immunosuppressive agents or systemic or absorbable local hormone therapy to achieve immunosuppressive effects (dosage\>10mg/day of prednisone or other therapeutic hormones), and continues to use them within 2 weeks before enrollment.
5. Ascites or pleural effusion with clinical symptoms require therapeutic puncture or drainage.
6. Patients with clinically uncontrollable cardiac symptoms or diseases, such as: (1) NYHA grade 2 or above heart failure, (2) unstable angina pectoris, (3) myocardial infarction within 1 year, (4) clinically significant supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmias that require treatment or intervention.
7. The subject has an active infection or an unexplained fever\>38.5 degrees Celsius during the screening period or before the first administration (according to the researcher's judgment, the subject's fever caused by the tumor can be included in the group).
8. Patients with past and current history of pulmonary fibrosis, interstitial pneumonia, pneumoconiosis, radiation pneumonia, drug-related pneumonia, and severe impairment of lung function with objective evidence.
9. Subjects have congenital or acquired immune deficiency, such as HIV infected persons, or active hepatitis (transaminase does not meet the inclusion criteria, hepatitis B reference: HBV DNA ≥ 1000 IU/ml. hepatitis C reference: HCV RNA ≥ 1000 IU/ml). Chronic hepatitis B virus carriers with HBV DNA\<2000 IU/ml must receive antiviral treatment simultaneously during the trial period before they can be enrolled.

13. The researcher believes that it should be excluded from this study. For example, based on the researcher's judgment, the subject may have other factors that may cause the study to be terminated midway, such as other serious diseases (including mental illness) requiring concurrent treatment, serious laboratory test abnormalities, accompanied by family or social factors, which may affect the safety of the subject, or the collection of data and samples.
