Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: The main purpose of this study is to compare how long patients with glioblastoma (GBM, a malignant brain cancer) live after receiving nivolumab every two weeks in addition to radiation therapy (RT), and then every four weeks, compared with patients receiving standard therapy with temozolomide in addition to RT;Secondary Objective: - To compare investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) of RT + nivolumab versus RT + TMZ;<br>- To estimate the overall survival rate at 24 months (OS[24]) of RT + nivolumab versus RT + TMZ (final analysis only);Primary end point(s): Overall survival of nivolumab versus temozolomide both in combination with radiation therapy;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Time between the date of randomization and the date of death due to any cause
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): - Progression free survival<br>- Overall survival rate of nivolumab versus temozolomide both in combination with radiation therapy;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: - Time from randomization to date of first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause<br>- 24 months
