This trial is for people aged twelve or older with selected EBV-positive lymphoproliferative disorders or B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Lymphoma requires relapse after anthracycline/rituximab treatment or ineligibility for it; lymphoproliferative disorders may be untreated. Adolescents have weight criteria.
The idea: block PD-1 with nivolumab to release an immune checkpoint. The open arm gives 480-milligram infusions every four weeks, for up to two years if benefiting and tolerating treatment. The two-week schedule closed. Researchers measure response; tissue is required.
This phase 2 study plans 40 patients. Christopher Melani leads at NIH’s recruiting Bethesda site.
