Study Summary

This trial is testing the long-term safety of a cancer drug.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for cancer patients who have previously been treated with Nivolumab, either completed the treatment, experienced progression during it, or stopped due to side effects. They can join for long-term safety follow-up but not receive further Nivolumab unless deemed beneficial by the original study criteria.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The main focus of this rollover study is to monitor the long-term safety of Nivolumab in participants who are currently receiving or have received it as part of an earlier 'Parent Study'. It involves observing these patients over time.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, typical ones associated with Nivolumab include fatigue, skin issues (like rash), problems with lung function (pneumonitis), and immune-related reactions affecting various organs.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Has Nivolumab received regulatory approval from the FDA?

"Nivolumab's score of 2 on our 1-to-3 scale reflects that, while there is some evidence supporting its safety, this medication has not yet been proven effective."

Answered by AI

Are there any precedents for Nivolumab's use in treatment?

"Nivolumab was first studied in 2010 and, as of now, there are 249 completed clinical trials. There are 747 more active studies currently underway, a large number of which taking place in Baltimore, Maryland."

Answered by AI

What makes this trial unique compared to others?

"Nivolumab has been the subject of 747 clinical trials in 2347 cities and 50 countries since 2010. The first trial, which was conducted by Medarex and completed Phase 1 drug approval in 2010, involved 127 participants. In the nine years since then, there have been 249 additional Nivolumab trials."

Answered by AI

Is this a widespread study taking place in the US?

"To make participation as easy as possible, this trial is currently recruiting out of 43 sites. The locations are located in Baltimore, Westwood and Tampa along with other locations. It is important to select the location closest you to minimize travel requirements if you participate."

Answered by AI

How many people are the researchers testing this on?

"That is accurate. The clinicaltrials.gov webpage for this research indicates that it is currently recruiting patients. 43 medical facilities are enrolling a total of 800 individuals in the study, which was initially posted on August 9th, 2019."

Answered by AI

What cancers has Nivolumab been known to be effective against?

"Nivolumab is most often used as a treatment for cancer, but it can also be administered to patients with other conditions like unresectable melanoma or squamous cell carcinoma."

Answered by AI

Are we still looking for more test subjects for this experiment?

"Yes, as of 10/25/2022 this trial is still recruiting patients from 43 different sites. In total, they are looking for 800 participants to enroll."
