Brief Summary:
The purpose of this Phase II study is to determine if AZD4877, an experimental drug that is a novel anti-mitotic agent (Eg5 or Kinesin Spindle Protein inhibitor that interferes with tumor cell division leading to tumor growth), can reduce tumor sizes in patients with bladder cancer

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) as Evaluated by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) [ Time Frame: 8 weeks after study drug begins & and every 8 wks thereafter until discontinuation of study drug ( maximum treatment period of 309 days (44 weeks) ]
    Percentage of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.0 (Therasse et al. Natl Cancer Inst 92 (2000) pp205-216).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Disease Control Rate (DCR) [ Time Frame: 8 weeks after study drug begins & every 8 weeks thereafter until discontinuation of the study ( maximum treatment period of 309 days (44 weeks) ]
    Percentage of participants with Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), or stable disease (SD) lasting at least 8 weeks from the first administration of study drug. RECIST guidelines:(Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors, version 1.0).

  2. Duration of Objective Tumor Response (OTR) [ Time Frame: Time from first documentation of Complete or Partial Response, whichever occurs earlier, to discontinuation of the study drug (maximum treatment period of 309 days (44 weeks) ]
    Time in weeks from the date of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR), whichever occurs earlier, to the date of discontinuation of study. RECIST guidelines:(Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors, version 1.0)

  3. Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Time from the first administration of study drug to disease progression or death (maximum treatment period of 309 days (44 weeks) ]
    Time in weeks from date of first study drug administration to the date of progressive disease according to the RECIST guidelines (Response evaluation in solid tumors, version 1.0), or death due to any cause.

  4. Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Time from the first administration of study drug to disease progression or death (maximum treatment period of 309 days (44 weeks) ]
    Time in weeks from the first administration of study drug to death.
