Purpose

This phase II trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of giving immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) before surgery for controlling disease in patients with stage I-IIIa sarcomatoid mesothelioma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving immunotherapy before surgery may be more effective at controlling disease in patients with sarcomatoid mesothelioma than giving immunotherapy alone.

To be eligible for this trial, patients should be class 2B or better - Patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen are eligible for this trial - STEP 2 ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Completion of at least 1 cycle of treatment and not have an unresolved adverse event that would preclude surgery - STEP 2 ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: No evidence of progression that would preclude resection - STEP 2 ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: ECOG performance status =< 2 or Karnofsky >= 60% - STEP 2 ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) > 35% and postoperative predicted diffusion capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) > 35% - STEP 2 ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Registration to step 2 no less than 21 days and no more than 90 days after the last dose of neoadjuvant therapy

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the percentage of patients with potentially resectable non-epithelioid mesothelioma who are able to proceed with surgery after neoadjuvant ipilimumab and nivolumab. II. To determine the progression-free survival rate at 12 months after the initiation of neoadjuvant ipilimumab and nivolumab. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the rate of intra-operative or post-operative complications following neoadjuvant immunotherapy. II. Best response per modified pleural Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). III. Major pathologic response rate. IV. Time to recurrence after surgery. EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the association between the change in peripheral T cell clonality relative to baseline and treatment response. II. To evaluate the association between PD-L1 expression at baseline and treatment response. III. To evaluate whether a novel mesothelioma immune signature identified by Dr. Mansfield's laboratory is predictive of response. OUTLINE: Patients receive nivolumab intravenously (IV), ipilimumab IV, and may undergo surgery on study. Patients also undergo computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) throughout the trial.

Notice

Study information shown on this site is derived from ClinicalTrials.gov (a public registry operated by the National Institutes of Health). The listing of studies provided is not certain to be all studies for which you might be eligible. Furthermore, study eligibility requirements can be difficult to understand and may change over time, so it is wise to speak with your medical care provider and individual research study teams when making decisions related to participation.
