Abstract
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy with poor prognosis and limited treatment options beyond progression after platinum-based combination with pemetrexed chemotherapy. Nivolumab (anti-PD-1, ONO-4538, BMS-936558), a humanized monoclonal antibody, PD-1 immune-checkpoint inhibitor, has demonstrated antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile in several advanced malignancies. Here, we report the preliminary results of a phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nivolumab in previously treated Japanese MPM patients (pts): ONO-4538-41/JapicCTI-No.163247.
