What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)

    An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in a clinical investigation participant administered study treatment and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (such as an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment.

    Measured: From first dose of study medication through 100 days following last dose of study treatment (assessed for an average of 8 months up to a max of approximately 28 months)

  2. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Serious Adverse Event (SAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, and requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization.

    Measured: From first dose of study medication through 100 days following last dose of study treatment (assessed for an average of 8 months up to a max of approximately 28 months)

  3. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) Meeting Protocol-defined Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) Criteria

    Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) are effects of a treatment that are serious enough to prevent an increase in dose of that treatment.

    Grade 1=Mild, 2=Moderate, 3=Severe, 4=Life-threatening, 5=Death

    Gastrointestinal DLT:

    • Grade 2 colitis >5 days
    • Grade ≥3 diarrhea/colitis

    Hepatic DLT:

    • Grade 4 serum transaminases (AST \& ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), or total bilirubin elevations
    • Grade 3 serum AST, ALT, or ALP elevations lasting >5 days or with clinical symptoms or bilirubin > 2×ULN without cholestasis

    Hematologic DLT:

    • Grade 4 neutropenia ≥7 days
    • Grade 4 thrombocytopenia

    Dermatologic DLT:

    • Grade 4 rash
    • Grade 3 rash if no improvement after 1-2-week infusion delay

    Other DLTs:

    • Grade 2 drug-related uveitis, episcleritis, iritis, eye pain, or blurred vision that doesn't respond to treatment, doesn't improve within the re-treatment period OR requires systemic treatment
    • Grade 3 drug-related uveitis, episcleritis, iritis, pneumonitis, bronchospasm, or neurologic toxicity

    Measured: From first dose of study medication through 60 days following last dose of study treatment (assessed for an average of 7 months up to a max of approximately 27 months)

  4. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) Leading to Discontinuation

    An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in a clinical investigation participant administered study treatment and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (such as an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment.

    Measured: From first dose of study medication through 100 days following last dose of study treatment (assessed for an average of 8 months up to a max of approximately 28 months)

  5. Number of Participants Who Died

    Number of participants who died during the study

    Measured: From randomization (Part 2A and 2B) or first dose (Part 1, 2C and 2D) until study closure (Up to approximately 83 months)

  6. Objective Response Rate (ORR) for Part 2 Only

    Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percent of all treated participants whose best overall response (BOR) is either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) by Investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1).

    Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.

    Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm (Note: The appearance of 1or more new lesions is also considered progression).

    Measured: From the start of the study treatment until disease progression, or the last response recorded, taking into account any requirement for confirmation and censoring rules regarding subsequent therapy (Up to approximately 83 months)

  7. Median Duration of Response (mDOR) for Part 2 Only

    Duration of response (DOR) for a participant with a BOR of CR or PR is defined as the time between the date of first response and the date of the first objectively documented tumor progression per RECIST v1.1 or death, whichever occurs first.

    Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm.

    Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm (Note: The appearance of 1or more new lesions is also considered progression).

    Based on Kaplan-Meier estimates of duration of response

    Measured: From the date of first dose to the date of the first objectively documented tumor progression, or death, whichever occurs first (Up to approximately 83 months)

  8. Progression-free Survival Rate (PFSR) at 24, 36, and 48 Weeks for Part 2 Only

    Progression-free survival (PFS) for a participant is defined as the time from the first dosing date to the date of first objectively documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Based on Kaplan-Meier estimates of progression-free survival rate

    Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm (Note: The appearance of 1or more new lesions is also considered progression).

    Measured: At 24, 36, and 48 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Ipilimumab, BMS-986218 and Nivolumab in people with Advanced Cancer, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 52 sites in 17 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 52 sites in United States, Argentina, Spain, Canada, Australia and 12 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Apr 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: From first dose of study medication through 100 days following last dose of study treatment (assessed for an average of 8 months up to a max of approximately 28 months)). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Apr 2025.
