4. Pathologic evidence of urothelial carcinoma at high-risk of recurrence and

   1. not received neoadjuvant therapy and has pT3-pT4aN0, or any pT with pN+ stage
   2. completed neoadjuvant treatment and has ypT2-ypT4a, or any ypT with ypN+ stage

5. No evidence of disease at screening,

6. ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 with no deterioration over the previous 2 weeks prior to randomisation.

7. Minimum life expectancy of > 12 weeks at time of screening.

8. An archival surgical tumour sample must be available pre-randomisation for central testing.

9. Adequate organ and bone marrow function within 28 days before randomisation.

Exclusion criteria:
