Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of MDX-1106 in patients with certain types of cancer. Another purpose is to determine how MDX-1106 is absorbed and distributed within the body, and how it's eventually eliminated.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Geometric Mean Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax)1,4,8,24,48 and 96 hours post-dose timepoints on Day 1 of cycles 1 and 3Nivolumab in human serum was assayed by PPD® (Richmond, Virginia) using a cross-validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Blood samples were assessed at all doses from a subset of participants. The pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter of Cmax was measured in micrograms per milliliter (µg/mL).
Median Time of Maximum Serum Concentration (Tmax)1,4,8,24,48 and 96 hours post-dose timepoints on Day 1 of cycles 1 and 3Nivolumab in human serum was assayed by PPD® (Richmond, Virginia) using a cross-validated ELISA. Blood samples were assessed Blood samples were assessed at all doses from a subset of participants. The PK parameter of Tmax was measured in hours (h).
Immunogenicity AssessmentDay 1 up to June 2013, approximately 4 yearsClassification of participants host immune response was based on the following definitions: Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) Positive Subjects have with at least one ADA positive sample at any time after initiation of treatment. ADA positive subjects were further classified into categories with Persistent Positive defined as an ADA positive sample at 2 or more sequential timepoints at least 8 weeks apart.
Geometric Mean Total Body Clearance of Drug From Serum (CLT)1,4,8,24,48 and 96 hours post-dose timepoints on Day 1 of cycle 3Nivolumab in human serum was assayed by PPD® (Richmond, Virginia) using a cross-validated ELISA. Blood samples Blood samples were assessed at all doses from a subset of participants. The PK parameter of CLT was measured in milliliters per hour (mL/h).
Mean Effective Half-life (T-HALFeff)1,4,8,24,48 and 96 hours post-dose timepoints on Day 1 of cycle 3Nivolumab in human serum was assayed by PPD® (Richmond, Virginia) using a cross-validated ELISA. Blood samples were assessed at all doses from a subset of participants. The PK parameter of T-HALFeff was measured in hours (h).
Geometric Mean Area Under the Curve (AUC[TAU]) in One Dosing Interval Observed Post-Single Dose1,4,8,24,48 and 96 hours post-dose timepoints on Day 1 of cycles 1 and 3Nivolumab in human serum was assayed by PPD® (Richmond, Virginia) using a cross-validated ELISA. Blood samples were assessed at all doses from a subset of participants. The PK parameter of AUC was measured in micrograms\*hours per milliliter (μg\*h/mL).
Objective Response RateDay 1 up to June 2013, approximately 4 yearsTumor response was evaluated by the sponsor based on tumor assessments by the investigator according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.0. Objective response rate (ORR) was defined as the proportion of participants who's confirmed best overall response (BOR) is either complete (CR) or partial (PR), where the denominator is the number of treated participants in the population of interest. Response was based on tumor measurements. Responders= complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). CR=disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; PR=at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the screening sum longest diameter. 95% Confidence intervals (CIs) were computed using the Clopper Pearson method.
Duration of Tumor ResponseDay 1 up to June 2013, approximately 4 yearsDuration of tumor response (DOR) was calculated from the first date of response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) to the date of the first progressive disease (PD) or the date of death. Duration of response was censored at the last tumor assessment date if a responder did not have PD or death. Nonresponders were not included in the analysis. Median DOR was estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis.

Number of Participants With Severe Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Treatment-Related AEs, Deaths, Discontinuation of Study Drug Due to AEs

AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE=a medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or drug dependency/abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization. Treatment-related=having certain, probable, possible or missing relationship to study drug. Death=during the study and up to 28 days past study discontinuation. The select AEs were determined using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA, v15.1) and graded using the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), Version 3.0.

Time frame: Day 1 to 70 days following last dose of study drug up to June 2013, approximately 4 years

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose or any partial dose of nivolumab were analyzed.

Duration of Tumor Response

Duration of tumor response (DOR) was calculated from the first date of response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) to the date of the first progressive disease (PD) or the date of death. Duration of response was censored at the last tumor assessment date if a responder did not have PD or death. Nonresponders were not included in the analysis. Median DOR was estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis.

Time frame: Day 1 up to June 2013, approximately 4 years

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose or any partial dose of nivolumab with a measurable tumor response were analyzed.

Objective Response Rate

Tumor response was evaluated by the sponsor based on tumor assessments by the investigator according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.0. Objective response rate (ORR) was defined as the proportion of participants who's confirmed best overall response (BOR) is either complete (CR) or partial (PR), where the denominator is the number of treated participants in the population of interest. Response was based on tumor measurements. Responders= complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). CR=disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; PR=at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the screening sum longest diameter. 95% Confidence intervals (CIs) were computed using the Clopper Pearson method.

Time frame: Day 1 up to June 2013, approximately 4 years

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose or any partial dose of nivolumab with an evaluable tumor response were analyzed.
