About
This phase I trial studies the side effects of nivolumab, BMS-986205, and standard radiation therapy with or without temozolomide in treating patients with new diagnosed glioblastoma. Immunotherapy with nivolumab, may induce changes in body?s immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. BMS-986205 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving nivolumab and BMS-986205 may work better compared to radiation therapy and temozolomide alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma.
Full description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the safety and tolerability of nivolumab in combination with IDO1 inhibitor BMS-986205 (BMS986205) and radiation in newly diagnosed MGMT promoter unmethylated glioblastoma and MGMT promoter methylated glioblastoma.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Descriptive survival analyses (overall survival [OS] and OS at 12 months [OS12]) in patients with MGMT unmethylated and MGMT methylated promoter.
II. Progression free survival (PFS) and PFS at 6 months (PFS6) in patients with MGMT unmethylated and MGMT methylated promoter.
III. Radiographic response rates (RR) as determined by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) and immunotherapy (i)RANO criteria in patients with MGMT unmethylated and MGMT methylated promoter.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the T-cell changes that occur in glioblastoma (GBM) treated with nivolumab in combination with BMS-986205 and radiation.
II. Correlate T-cell changes and IDO1 expression with patient outcomes.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of IDO1 inhibitor BMS-986205. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts.
COHORT I:
RADIATION THERAPY: Patients with MGMT methylated promoter undergo radiation therapy 5 days per week (Monday-Friday) for up to 6 weeks. Patients also receive temozolomide orally (PO) once daily (QD), IDO1 inhibitor BMS-986205 PO QD, and nivolumab intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes every 2 weeks for up to 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, the study ends, or until Q4W dosing begins.
MAINTENANCE THERAPY: Patients receive IDO1 inhibitor BMS-986205 PO QD on days 1-28 and nivolumab IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 15 of cycles 1-5 and on day 1 of subsequent cycles. Within 4 weeks of radiation therapy completion, patients also receive temozolomide PO QD on days 1-5 of cycles 2-6. Cycles repeats every 28 days for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
COHORT II:
RADIATION THERAPY: Patients with MGMT unmethylated promoter undergo radiation therapy 5 days per week (Monday-Friday) for up to 6 weeks. Patients also receive IDO1 inhibitor BMS-986205 PO QD and nivolumab IV over 30 minutes every 2 weeks for up to 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
MAINTENANCE THERAPY: Patients receive IDO1 inhibitor BMS-986205 PO QD on days 1-28 and nivolumab IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 15 of cycles 1-5 and on day 1 of subsequent cycles. Cycles repeats every 28 days for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, the study ends, or until Q4W dosing begins.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and then every 3 months thereafter.

Inclusion criteria
Patients must have a newly diagnosed histologically confirmed diagnosis of any grade IV glioma with documentation of MGMT methylation status. The histological diagnosis can be obtained either from a brain biopsy or from a neurosurgical resection of the tumor
Tumor tissue specimens from the GBM surgery or biopsy for central pathology review and exploratory analysis of immunocorrelative studies, if available (no minimum requirement)
For subjects who had undergone tumor resection, preoperative gadolinium (Gd)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and immediate postoperative Gd-MRI performed within < 72 hours after surgery or biopsy is recommended. If computed tomography (CT) scans were performed perioperatively, an MRI should be performed before initiation of study treatment
Patients must exhibit a Karnofsky performance score of >= 70%
Stable or decreasing dose of steroids for >= 7 days prior to registration
Patients must have adequate organ and bone marrow function at registration, as defined below:
Absolute neutrophil count >= 1500/mm^3
Platelets >= 100,000/mm^3
Creatinine or creatinine clearance =<1.5 times upper limit of normal or >= 60 mL/min
Hemoglobin >=10 mg/dL
Total bilirubin =< 1.5 times upper limit of normal
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase [SPGT]) =< 2.5 times above upper limit of normal
Alkaline phosphatase =< 2.5 times above upper limit of normal
Females of child-bearing potential (FOCBP) and males must agree to use adequate contraception prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 5 months following completion of therapy. Should a female patient become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately. Due to the potential interaction with study drug(s), contraceptions that use hormones are not considered to be highly effective for FOCBP participants in this study.
NOTE: A FOCBP is any woman (regardless of sexual orientation, having undergone a tubal ligation, or remaining celibate by choice) who meets the following criteria:
Males who are sexually active with FOCBP must agree to follow instructions for method(s) of contraception for the duration of treatment with study treatment plus 7 months after the last dose of the study treatment (i.e., 90 days [duration of sperm turnover] plus the time required for nivolumab to undergo approximately 5 half-lives). In addition, male participants must be willing to refrain from sperm donation during this time. Male participants with partners who are FOCBP are required to use a condom for study duration and until end of relevant systemic exposure defined as 7 months after the end of study treatment. This criteria applies to azoospermic males as well
FOCBP must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days of registration on study and within 24 hours of beginning study treatment
