- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary Objective: To determine whether nivolumab:<br>a) increases the length of time patients are free from disease (progression-free survival) <br>b) increases response rate to treatment<br>c) is safe and patients are able to tolerate the treatment <br>d) to ascertain how a patients PD-L1 status links with overall survival.<br>e) results in acceptable patient quality of life and cost per quality adjusted life year (QALY)<br>;Main Objective: This trial aims to determine whether nivolumab increases overall survival in patients with relapsed mesothelioma.;Primary end point(s): The primary outcome measure is overall survival calculated from the time of randomisation to the date of death and progression free survival;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Calculated from the time of randomisation to the date of death
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): a) response rate <br>b) safety/tolerability <br>c) quality of life and cost per QALY<br>d) sensitivity to nivolumab with presence of PD-L1;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: a) time from randomisation to progression (according to RECIST), or death from any cause (whichever event comes first).<br><br>b) Time from randomisation to best response as determined by RECIST evaluation<br><br>c) Assessed using the CTCAE criteria to review adverse events from first treatment to to 30 days after last dose<br><br>d) Sample taken at baseline for central analysis. Results collated throughout trial.
