Correct answer: BEnfortumab vedotin

Enfortumab vedotin (anti-Nectin-4 ADC) is approved for locally advanced/metastatic urothelial carcinoma after prior platinum and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy (NICE TA833, EV-301 trial). This patient has received both platinum (gemcitabine-cisplatin) and PD-L1 inhibitor (avelumab maintenance), making enfortumab vedotin the standard next option. EV-301 showed significant OS benefit over chemotherapy. Erdafitinib is an option for FGFR-altered tumours.
