Clinical Trial Summary

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is increasingly administered as the sole treatment of brain metastases, in order to spare acute and long term side effects associated with whole brain radiotherapy. Local control of SRS treated lesions is good, but patients tend to develop additional brain metastases subsequently. Nivolumab is a modulator of the immune system. Treatment with Nivolumab is associated with an increase in local control and survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer and clear cell renal cell carcinoma. In the presence of Nivolumab, treatment of brain metastases with SRS may trigger an immune reaction against cancer. Therefore, the combination of SRS with Nivolumab may reduce the development of new brain metastases and improve patient survival. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of combining Nivolumab and SRS in controlling cancer progression. SRS will be administered to patients while they are receiving Nivolumab.

Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must use appropriate method(s) of contraception. WOCBP should use an adequate method to avoid pregnancy for 23 weeks (28 days plus the time required for Nivolumab to undergo five half-lives) after the last dose of investigational drug 15.

Men receiving Nivolumab and who are sexually active with WOCBP will be instructed to adhere to contraception for a period of 31 weeks after the last dose of Nivolumab product. Women who are not of childbearing potential (ie, who are postmenopausal or surgically sterile as well as azoospermic men do not require contraception). Exclusion Criteria: 1. Brain metastasis in the brainstem 2. Patients who experienced prior seizures are eligible, however patients should not have had a seizure within 7 days of registration without the use of corticosteroids. 3. All other cancer histology other than NSCLC or ccRCC 4. Patients who cannot undergo MRI 5. Active, known or suspected autoimmune disease. Subjects are permitted to enroll if they have vitiligo, type I diabetes mellitus, residual hypothyroidism due to autoimmune condition only requiring hormone replacement, psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment, or conditions not expected to recur in the absence of an external trigger 6. Patients with a condition requiring systemic treatment with either corticosteroids including steroids used for treating peritumoral edema (> 50 mg daily prednisone equivalents) or other immunosuppressive medications within 14 days of study drug administration. Inhaled or topical steroids and adrenal replacement doses > 10 mg daily prednisone equivalents are permitted in the absence of active autoimmune disease. 7. Drugs with a predisposition to hepatoxicity should be used with caution in patients treated with Nivolumab-containing regimen 8. Any underlying medical or psychiatric condition, which in the opinion of the investigator will make the administration of Nivolumab hazardous or obscure the interpretation of AEs, such as a condition associated with frequent diarrhea. 9. History of prior treatment with a CTLA-4, PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor, CD137 agonist, or anti-PD-L2. 10. Concomitant therapy with any of the following: IL-2, interferon, or other non-study immunotherapy regimens; immunosuppressive agents; other investigation therapies 11. Prisoners or subjects who are compulsorily detained (involuntarily incarcerated) for treatment of either a psychiatric or physical (eg, infectious) illness. 12. Known history of hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBV sAg) or hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV antibody) indicating acute or chronic infection 13. History of allergy to study drug components. 14. Known history of testing positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Intracranial progression-free survival To evaluate whether the combination SRS with Nivolumab will improve the intracranial progression-free survival of patients.
Response will be assessed as per RECIST version 1.1.
1 year
Secondary Treated brain lesions control rate Treated brain lesions control will be assessed as per RECIST version 1.1. 1 year
Secondary Overall survival after receiving Nivolumab. Overall Survival is assessed at the end of the study at 2 years. A subject will be classified as either alive or dead due to any cause.
The time to event will be calculated as the time from Day 1 until date of death.
Day 1 is the date of 1st treatment consisting of an infusion of Nivolumab.
2 years
Secondary Maximum response rate of distant non-irradiated disease Response will be assessed as per RECIST version 1.1. 1 year
Secondary Progression-free survival Response will be assessed as per RECIST version 1.1. 1 year
Secondary Correlation between tumor PD-L1 expression and clinical outcomes Tumor PD-L1 expression level will be correlated with patient overall response rate, loco-regional recurrence free survival and overall survival. 1 year
Secondary Patient quality of life Quality of life will be assessed using the the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - General (FACT-G) and the Brain Subscale (FACT-BR) questionnaires. A composite score will be obtained from the score of each subscale. Quality of life decline is the time to the first minimal important difference in the composite score from baseline. 1 year
Secondary Neurocognitive function, as measured by the HVLT-R Neurocognitive function will be assessed using the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test - Revised (HVLT-R). Neurocognitive failure is the time to the first failure on the assessments using the Reliable Change Index. Baseline neurocognitive function will be compared to the test results at 1 year using either a t-test or Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test, depending on the normality of the data. 1 Year
Secondary Neurocognitive function, as measured by TMT Neurocognitive function will be assessed using the Trail Making Test (TMT). Neurocognitive failure is the time to the first failure on the assessments using the Reliable Change Index. Baseline neurocognitive function will be compared to the test results at 1 year using either a t-test or Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test, depending on the normality of the data. 1 year
Secondary Neurocognitive function, as measured by COWA Neurocognitive function will be assessed using the Controlled Oral Word Association (COWA). Neurocognitive failure is the time to the first failure on the assessments using the Reliable Change Index. Baseline neurocognitive function will be compared to the test results at 1 year using either a t-test or Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test, depending on the normality of the data. 1 Year
Secondary Acute and late toxicity of SRS + Nivolumab Adverse events will be coded according to MedDRA. The results will be tabulated to examine their frequency, organ systems affected, severity, and relationship to study treatment.
Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) V4.03 will be used for grading of AEs. Investigators will provide their assessment of causality as 1) unrelated, 2) unlikely, 3) possibly related, 4) probably, or 5) definitely related.
1 year
