No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Primary objective: To estimate the efficacy of adjuvant nivolumab monotherapy in completely resected MCC patients

Primary endpoint: Disease-free survival (DFS) rate evaluated at 12, 24 and 48 months after date of randomization

Secondary Objectives: To describe the safety profile and additional efficacy parameters of the nivolumab treatment in MCC

Secondary endpoints:

* Adverse events according to CTCAE, Version 4.0 criteria, that are related to the administration of nivolumab
* Disease-free survival (DFS)
* Overall survival (OS) and OS rates at 12, 24 and 48 months after randomization

Explorative Endpoints:

* Distant-metastases-free survival (DMFS) and DMFS rate at 12, 24 and 48 months after randomization
* Identification and validation of prognostic/predictive biomarkers
* Quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30) until 24 months after randomization
