Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Response to treatment based on PET-CT findings Deauvile score. ased on our data and published literature, response to first salvage therapy is 40-50%. in chemo-refractory patients, we expected a response rate of 85% in the proposed study, hence a sample size of 19 patients in each arm will be adequate to detect a difference of 45% in response to therapy, with 5% significance and 80% power.Timepoint: After 49days of treatment.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Complete response rate Partial response rate PD-1 receptor saturation and T cell activation of peripheral blood T cells assessed by immunophenotyping prior to the 2nd cycle of chemotherapy Incidence of Grade 3 or above immune-related adverse events Response rates in bulk disease less than 10cm vs no bulk diseaseTimepoint: Day 49
