What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Adjusted Geometric Mean Serum Concentration of Nivolumab Over 28 Days (Cavgd28) on Original Scale
Plasma samples were collected to assess the serum concentration.
Measured: Pre-dose (Day 1 to Day 28)
Adjusted Geometric Mean of Nivolumab Trough Serum Concentration at Steady State (Cminss) on Original Scale
Plasma samples were collected to assess the serum concentration.
Measured: Pre-dose (Day 1 to Day 28)
Secondary outcomes (16)
Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per BICR
Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a best overall response (BOR) of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR), based on blinded independent central review (BICR) assessments using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1), divided by the number of all randomized participants. 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.
Measured: From first dose to the date of first objectively documented progression, per RECIST v1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 26 months)
Trough Serum Concentration of Nivolumab at Day 28 (Cmind28)
Blood samples were collected to assess serum concentration.
Measured: Pre-dose at Day 28
Maximum Serum Concentration of Nivolumab After the First Dose (Cmax1)
Blood samples were collected to assess serum concentration.
Measured: Post dose (Day 1)
Peak Serum Concentration of Nivolumab at Steady State (Cmaxss)
Blood samples were collected to assess serum concentration.
Measured: Pre-dose (Day 1 to Day 28)
Time-averaged Serum Concentration of Nivolumab at Steady State (Cavgss)
Blood samples were collected to assess serum concentration.
Measured: Pre-dose (Day 1 to Day 28)
Trough Serum Concentration of Nivolumab (Ctrough)
Blood samples were collected to assess serum concentration.
Measured: Pre-dose at Week 17
Time to Maximum Serum Concentration of Nivolumab at Day 1 (Tmax1)
Blood samples were collected to assess serum concentration.
Measured: Post dose (Day 1)
Trough Serum Concentration of Nivolumab at Steady State (Cminss)
Blood samples were collected to assess serum concentration.
Measured: Pre dose (Day 1 to Day 28)
Number of Participants With Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events, AEs Leading to Discontinuation and Death
AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence at any dose that: results in death, is immediately life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, results in a congenital abnormality or birth defect, or is an important medical event that may not result in death, be life-threatening, or require hospitalization, but may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the outcomes listed above.
Measured: First dose (Day 1) and 30 days after last dose of study therapy (up to approximately 25 months)
Number of Participants With Grade 3/4 Laboratory Abnormalities
Blood samples were collected for assessment of laboratory test results. All abnormalities were graded as per CTCAE v5.0 on a scale from 1 to 4, with Grade 1 being mild and asymptomatic; Grade 2 is moderate requiring minimal, local or noninvasive intervention; Grade 3 is severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; Grade 4 events are usually severe enough to require hospitalization.
Measured: First dose (Day 1) and 30 days after last dose of study therapy (up to approximately 25 months)
Disease Control Rate (ORR) Per BICR
Disease control rate (DCR) is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a BOR of confirmed Complete Response (CR), confirmed Partial Response (PR), or stable disease (SD), based on BICR assessments (using RECIST 1.1) divided by the number of all randomized participants. CR: Disappearance of all target lesions. PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions. SD: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD), taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.
Measured: From first dose to the date of first objectively documented progression, per RECIST v1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 26 months)
Time to Response (TTR) Per BICR
Time to response (TTR) assessed by BICR is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the first confirmed documented response (CR or PR) per RECIST 1.1 criteria.
CR: Disappearance of all target lesions, any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm.
PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.
Measured: From first dose to the date of first objectively documented progression, per RECIST v1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 26 months)
Duration of Response (DoR) Per BICR
Duration of Response (DOR) in months is defined as the time from date of the first documentation of objective response (CR or PR) to the first documentation of PD or to death due to any cause in the absence of documented PD. CR is complete disappearance of all target lesions except nodal disease; all target nodes must decrease to normal size (short axis < 10 mm). PR is ≥30% decrease under baseline of the sum of diameters of all target measurable lesions. Disease progression is defined as 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target measurable lesions above the smallest sum observed, with a minimum absolute increase of 5 mm.
Measured: From first dose to the date of first objectively documented progression, per RECIST v1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 26 months)
Overall Survival
Overall survival is defined as the time from the first dosing date (or from randomization/on treatment) to the date of death from any cause.
Measured: From first dose to the date of death (up to approximately 26 months)
Number of Participants With Drug-Related Local Injection- or Infusion-Site Reactions
Measured: First dose (Day 1) and 100 days after last dose of study therapy (up to approximately 27 months)
Number of Participants With Incidence of Anti-nivolumab Antibodies
ADA Positive is a subject with at least one ADA-positive sample relative to baseline (ADA negative at baseline or ADA titer to be at least 4-fold or greater [≥]than baseline positive titer) at any time after initiation of treatment.
Measured: First dose (Day 1) and 30 days after last dose of study therapy (up to approximately 25 months)

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 phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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 22 Sep 2026). 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?
Adjusted Geometric Mean Serum Concentration of Nivolumab Over 28 Days (Cavgd28) on Original Scale (time frame: Pre-dose (Day 1 to Day 28)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04810078, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 22 Sep 2026.
