Janssen Reports First Results from Phase 2 SunRISe-1 Study of TAR-200 and Anti- PD-1 Antibody Cetrelimab in Patients with Bacillus Calmette-Gu érin-Unresponsive Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer

CHICAGO, April 30, 2023 – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson announced today the first results from the open-label Phase 2 SunRISe-1 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of TAR-200 monotherapy (a novel investigational intravesical drug delivery system) and cetrelimab monotherapy (an investigational anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody administered intravenously) in patients with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-unresponsive high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (HR-NMIBC), who are ineligible for, or decline, radical cystectomy.
