Phase 2
Waitlist Available
Research Sponsored by Fabio Iwamoto, MD
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial Must have
Karnofsky Performance Score (KPS) of 60 and above
Participants must have measurable disease, defined as at least one enhancing tumor lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension as ≥ 10mm x 10mm on brain MRI. See 13.2 Disease Parameters for more information regarding evaluation of measurable disease. Patients with non-enhancing measureable disease may be eligible upon discussion with and approval by the CUMC PI.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: NivolumabExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Nivolumab 240 mg will be given every 2 weeks for 8 cycles. Beginning with Cycle 9, nivolumab 480 mg will be given every 4 weeks for a total therapy duration of 2 years, or until progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. Nivolumab will be administered as a 30-minute infusion. A finite treatment duration with immune therapies in this participant population remains an area of ongoing research; therefore the treatment duration chosen was 2 years.
