5. Viral serology : negative antibodies for HCV and HIV; negative antigens for HBV
6. Metastases biopsiable on two occasions
7. Patients should agree to perform biopsies and blood collections for translational research
8. Recently acquired (within 90 days prior to treatment) tumor tissue from an unresectable or metastatic site of disease must be provided for biomarker analyses. In order to include only IDO positive (=5% expression of tumor cells) and non T-cell infiltrated tumors (<1% T cells infiltrating
the tumor bed).
9. Signed informed consent from the patient or legal representative must be obtained.
10. Cancer types with an indication of treatment with anti-PD1 antibodies such as

5. Other serious acute or chronic illnesses, e.g. active infections requiring antibiotics, bleeding disorders or other conditions requiring concurrent medications not allowed during this study
6. Concomitant chemotherapy or radiotherapy for curative intent.
7. Administration of anti-angiogenic drugs or immunomodulatory agents.
8. Pregnancy or breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant within 6 months after the end of treatment.
9. Subject (male or female) not willing to use highly effective methods of contraception (per institutional standard) during treatment and for 6 months after the end of treatment.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: Safety Run-in : To assess the safety and tolerability of celecoxib in combination with anti-PD1 antibodies<br>Phase II : To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) of celecoxib in combination with anti-PD1 antibodies<br>;Secondary Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of celecoxib in combination with anti-PD1 antibodies<br>To evaluate the anti tumor effect of celecoxib in combination with anti-PD1 antibodies<br><br>Exploratory : To determine whether this treatment results in decreased tumoral IDO1 expression and increased tumoral infiltration by<br>T cells.;Primary end point(s): Overall response rate (ORR), defined as the percentage of subjects having a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as determined by investigator assessment of radiographic disease as per RECIST v1.1.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: week 12
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): Safety, tolerability of celecoxib in combination with anti-PD-1 antibodies, as assessed by AEs, clinical laboratory tests, physical examination results using CTC-NCIv4.03.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: up to progression of disease or until end of treatment (maximum of 2 years)
