BACKGROUND: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-directed antibody-drug conjugate monotherapy has shown preliminary clinical efficacy in patients with chemotherapy-refractory HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer. Previous data showed promising antitumor activity and safety of HER2-specific disitamab vedotin as monotherapy and when combined with programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)-directed immunotherapy in this cancer. METHODS: In this phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized trial, we assigned patients with previously untreated HER2-expressing (immunohistochemical score of 1+, 2+, or 3+) locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer in a 1:1 ratio to receive either disitamab vedotin plus PD-1-specific toripalimab every 2 weeks or chemotherapy (gemcitabine plus cisplatin or carboplatin) every 3 weeks. The dual primary end points were progression-free survival (assessed by blinded independent review) and overall survival. Secondary end points included objective response and safety. Here we report the prespecified progression-free survival analysis and interim overall survival analysis. RESULTS: A total of 484 patients underwent randomization. The median follow-up was 18.2 months. Progression-free survival was significantly longer in the disitamab vedotin-toripalimab group than in the chemotherapy group (median, 13.1 vs. 6.5 months; hazard ratio for progression or death, 0.36; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.28 to 0.46; P<0.001).
