Key Inclusion Criteria
a) Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS):
i) PS 0 to 1 (Subgroup1)
ii) PS 2 (Subgroup 2; minimum of 95 enrolled (81 treated) subjects. The Scientific Steering Committee will provide guidance and scientific expertise on the risk/benefit ratio following a Safety Management Plan).
b) Subjects with histologically or cytologically-documented SqNSCLC who presented with stage IIIb/stage IV disease or who developed recurrent or progressive disease following prior definitive therapy for localized or local advanced disease. A fresh biopsy is not required to take part in the study.
c) Subjects must have experienced disease recurrence or progression during or after one prior platinum doublet-based chemotherapy regimen for advanced or metastatic disease.
i) Maintenance therapy following platinum doublet-based chemotherapy is not considered as a separate regimen of therapy
ii) Subjects who received platinum-containing adjuvant, neoadjuvant or definitive chemoradiation therapy given for locally advanced disease, and developed recurrent (local or metastatic) disease within 6 months of completing therapy are eligible.
iii) Subjects with recurrent disease > 6 months after platinum-containing adjuvant, neoadjuvant or definitive chemoradiation therapy given for locally advanced disease, who also subsequently progressed during or after a platinum doublet-based regimen given to treat the recurrence, are eligible.
d) Subjects must have evaluable disease by CT or MRI per RECIST 1.1 criteria (radiographic tumor assessment performed within 28 days of first dose of study drug) or clinically apparent disease that the investigator can follow for response.
e) Subjects with CNS metastases:
i) Subjects are eligible if CNS metastases are treated and subjects are neurologically returned to baseline (except for residual signs or symptoms related to the CNS treatment) for at least 2 weeks prior to first dose. In addition, subjects must be either off corticosteroids or on a stable or decreasing dose of 10 mg daily prednisone (or equivalent)
OR
ii) Subjects are eligible if they have previously untreated CNS metastases that are neurologically asymptomatic. In addition, subjects must be either off corticosteroids or on a stable or decreasing dose of < or = 10 mg daily prednisone (or equivalent)
3. Age and Reproductive Status
a) Males and Females, ages 18 or older b) Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) within 24 hours
prior to the start of study drug
c) Women must not be breastfeeding
d) WOCBP must agree to follow instructions for method(s) of contraception for the duration of treatment with nivolumab plus approximately 5 half-lives of nivolumab plus 30 days (duration of ovulatory cycle) for a total of 5 months post-treatment completion.
e) Males who are sexually active with WOCBP must agree to follow instructions for method(s) of contraception for the duration of treatment with nivolumab plus approximately 5 half-lives of the study drug plus 90 days (duration of sperm turnover) for
a total of 7 months post-treatment completion.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: To determine the incidence of high-grade (CTCAE v4.0 Grades 3-4), treatment-related, select adverse events in subjects with advanced or metastatic SqNSCLC who progressed during or after at least 1 systemic therapy.;Secondary Objective: • To determine the incidence and to characterize the outcome of all high-grade (CTCAE v4.0 Grades 3-4), select adverse events in subjects with advanced or metastatic SqNSCLC who have progressed during or after at least 1 prior systemic therapy<br>• To estimate overall survival (OS) in all treated subjects<br>• To estimate investigator-assessed objective response rate (ORR)<br>;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the incidence of high-grade (CTCAE v4.0 Grades 3-4), treatment-related, select adverse events<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 5 years
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): The secondary endpoints include: <br>• Incidence of high grade (Grade 3-4) select adverse events<br>• Median time to onset and median time to resolution (Grades 3-4) of select adverse events<br>• OS <br>• ORR ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 5 years
