Subjects who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with recurrence \>12 months from completion of therapy are permitted 2. Subjects that received adjuvant chemotherapy following cystectomy with recurrence \>12 months from completion of therapy are permitted 4. Subjects may have radiographic evidence of N1 disease (Metastasis ≤2 cm in greatest dimension, in a single lymph node) 5. Subjects must be age 18 years or older. 6.

A female subject of childbearing potential is anyone born female who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone surgical sterilization (e.g., hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy) or has not completed menopause.

Female subjects with false positive results and documented verification of negative pregnancy status are eligible for participation. * If heterosexually active, must consistently use highly effective methods of birth control, with a failure rate of less than 1% (as described in Appendix L) starting at screening, throughout the study period, and for at least 6 months after the final dose of study drug. * Female subjects must agree not to breastfeed or donate ova starting at screening and throughout the study period, and for at least 6 months after the final dose of study drug. 10. A male subject who can father children is anyone born male who has testes and who has not undergone surgical sterilization (e.g., vasectomy followed by a clinical test proving that the procedure was effective). Male subjects who can father children, must meet the following conditions: * Must not donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the study period, and for at least 6 months after the final dose of study drug. Male subjects will be informed about the negative risk to reproductive function and fertility from the study treatment. Prior to treatment male subjects should be advised to seek information on fertility preservation and sperm cryoconservation. * Must consistently use highly effective methods of birth control, with a failure rate of less than 1% (as described in Appendix L) starting at screening and continue throughout study period and for at least 6 months after the final dose of study drug. * Male subjects with a pregnant or breastfeeding partner(s) must consistently use one of 2 contraception options for preventing secondary exposure to seminal fluid (as described in Appendix L) for the duration of the pregnancy or time partner is breastfeeding throughout the study period and for at least 6 months after the final dose of study drug. 11.
