Phase:

EARLY_PHASE1

Brief Summary

Patients suffering from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who relapse within 12 months of chemotherapy usually undergo salvage therapies, followed by autologous transplant with a low success rate....

Detailed Description

Primary Objective: To determine if nivolumab administration, as a maintenance strategy in DLBCL patients with high risk of relapse, can convert positive ctDNA to negative ctDNA and/or result in relap...

Exclusion

  • Patients with second malignancies (except monoclonal B cells of undetermined significance, antecendant indolent non Hodgkin lymphoma, non-melanomatous skin cancers, papillary thyroid carcinomas, ductal carcinoma in-situ, superficial bladder cancer, prostate cancer or in situ cervical cancers) are excluded unless a complete remission was achieved at least 3 years prior to enrollment and no additional therapy is required or anticipated to be required during the treatment.
  • Subjects with active autoimmune disease or a syndrome that requires systemic corticosteroids
