Study of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in Children and Young Adults With INI1-Negative Cancers
Sponsor:

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Information provided by (Responsible Party):

Suzanne Forrest, MD

Brief Summary:

This clinical trial is studying two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and ipilimumab) given together as a possible treatment for INI1-negative tumors.

Condition or disease

Malignant Rhabdoid Tumor

Rhabdoid Tumor of the Kidney

Epithelioid Sarcoma

Chordoma (Poorly Differentiated or De-differentiated)

Atypical Teratoid/Rhabdoid Tumor

Other INI1 Negative Tumors (With PI Approval)

Other SMARCA4-deficient Malignant Tumors (With PI Approval)

Intervention/treatment

Nivolumab

Ipilimumab

Phase

PHASE2

Detailed Description:

This research study is a Phase II clinical trial, which tests the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug or drug combination to learn whether the drug or drug combination works in treating a specific disease. "Investigational" means that the drug combination is being studied. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * Nivolumab (OPDIVO) * Ipilimumab (YERYOY) This trial is studying whether nivolumab and ipilimumab work to treat INI1-negative cancers. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved combination nivolumab and ipilimumab for the specific diseases in this study but it has been approved for other diseases. Nivolumab and ipilimumab have been tested in children to find out a safe dose of this combination.

Pregnancy tests must be obtained in girls who are post-menarchal.
        • * Has received prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2 or anti-CTLA4 agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or co-inhibitory T-cell receptor (e.g. OX-40, CD137)
