Study Summary

This phase II trial tests how well pemetrexed works in treating patients with urothelial bladder cancer and other solid tumors that have spread from where they first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) with mutations that result in a loss of function in the MLL4-protein/KMT2D-gene or UTX-protein/KDM6A-gene or MTAP enzyme. Loss of function due to a genetic mutation means a gene's activity may be reduced or eliminated. Mutations that result in a loss of function in the MLL4-protein or KMT2D-gene are found in 9.96% of all cancers including bladder carcinoma patients, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and esophageal adenocarcinoma patients. In addition, mutations that result in a loss of function in the UTX-protein or KDM6A-gene are found in approximately 5% of all tumors, including bladder cancers, endometrial cancer, and esophagogastric cancer amongst many other tumor types. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by stopping cells from using folic acid to make deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill tumor cells. Giving pemetrexed may increase response in patients with metastatic urothelial bladder cancer and other solid tumors with the loss of function in the MLL4-protein/KMT2D-gene or UTX-protein/KDM6A-gene or MTAP enzyme.

Primary Outcome

ORR is defined as the proportion of treated patients who experience an objective response (complete response \[CR\] or partial response \[PR\]). The date of first response for either CR or PR will be used to calculate ORR. Will be measured every 9 weeks +/- 10 days according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1). CR and PR need to be confirmed by a subsequent scan. Will compute two-sided 90% confidence intervals (CIs) for ORR using the exact binomial method. T
