Nivolumab for Relapsed, Refractory, or Detectable Disease Post Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell Treatment in Patients With Hematologic Malignancies

Found through the registry condition index, not selected as a treatment recommendation. This discovery collection was restricted to studies with posted results.

PHASE2

This phase II trial studies how well nivolumab works for the treatment of hematological malignancies that have come back (relapsed), does not respond (refractory), or is detectable after CAR T cell therapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

Inhaled or topical steroids, and adrenal replacement doses are permitted in absence of active autoimmune disease * Known history of any active infectious pneumonitis * Presence of acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) requiring active treatment unless limited to skin involvement and managed with topical steroid therapy alone * Has active cytokine release syndrome * Pregnancy or breastfeeding: Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (urine pregnancy test: minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of human chorionic gonadotropin \[hCG\]) within 14 days of the first dose of study drug. Women must not be breastfeeding. Females of non-childbearing potential are those who are postmenopausal greater than 1 year or who have had a bilateral tubal ligation or hysterectomy. Females of childbearing potential and males who have partners of childbearing potential must agree to use 2 effective contraceptive methods during the study and for 8 months following the last dose of nivolumab
