Description:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate patients with glioblastoma that is MGMT-unmethylated
(the MGMT gene is not altered by a chemical change). Patients will receive Nivolumab every
two weeks in addition to radiation therapy, and then every four weeks. They will be compared
to patients receiving standard therapy with temozolomide in addition to radiation therapy.
Title
- Brief Title: An Investigational Immuno-therapy Study of Nivolumab Compared to Temozolomide, Each Given With Radiation Therapy, for Newly-diagnosed Patients With Glioblastoma (GBM, a Malignant Brain Cancer)
- Official Title: A Randomized Phase 3 Open Label Study of Nivolumab vs Temozolomide Each in Combination With Radiation Therapy in Newly Diagnosed Adult Subjects With Unmethylated MGMT (Tumor O-6-methylguanine DNA Methyltransferase) Glioblastoma (CheckMate 498: CHECKpoint Pathway and Nivolumab Clinical Trial Evaluation 498)

- Males and Females, age ≥ 18 years old
- Newly-diagnosed brain cancer or tumor called glioblastoma or GBM
- Tumor test result shows MGMT unmethylated type
- Karnofsky performance status of ≥ 70 (able to care for self)

Maximum Eligible Age: | N/A |
Minimum Eligible Age: | 18 Years |
Eligible Gender: | All |
Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Primary Outcome Measures
Measure: | Overall Survival (OS) |
Time Frame: | up to 3 years |
Safety Issue: | |
Description: | OS is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of death due to any cause. A participant who has not died will be censored at the last known alive date. |
Secondary Outcome Measures
Measure: | Progression Free Survival (PFS) |
Time Frame: | up to 3 years |
Safety Issue: | |
Description: | PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause. Participants who did not have disease progression or who did not die will be censored at the date of last tumor assessment. Participants who did not have any on study tumor assessment and did not have tumor progression or die will be censored at the randomization date. Participants who started any subsequent anti-cancer therapy without a prior reported progression will be censored at the last tumor assessment prior to initiation of the subsequent anti-cancer therapy. Participants who had surgical resection post start of study treatment will be censored at the last tumor assessment date prior to initiation of surgical resection. PFS was determined by investigator reported response based on RANO criteria |
Measure: | OS at 24 Months |
Time Frame: | at 24 Months |
Safety Issue: | |
Description: | The OS rate at 24 months of nivolumab + RT and RT + TMZ was estimated as Kaplan-Meier probability of survival at 24 months. |
Measure: | OS in Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) High Population |
Time Frame: | up to 3 years |
Safety Issue: | |
Description: | OS is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of death due to any cause. A participant who has not died will be censored at the last known alive date. |
Measure: | PFS in Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) High Population |
