Japan14 participantsStarted 2025-04-15
Plain-language summary
This trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of nivolumab monotherapy in patients with recurrent or metastatic olfactory neuroblastoma that is difficult to treat with curative intent. Specifically, nivolumab 240 mg will be administered on Day 1 and Day 15 of each cycle, or nivolumab 480 mg will be administered on Day 1 of each cycle, and this will be continued until disease progression. One cycle is 28 days. The decision on which treatment to administer will be made through consultation between the participant in this trial and their attending physician.

Exclusion criteria
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

Objective Response Rate
Timeframe: Through study completion, assessed up to 3 years.
. Active progressive multiple primary cancers (synchronous multiple cancers and metachronous multiple cancers with a disease-free interval of 5 years or less. However, lesions equivalent to carcinoma in situ or mucosal cancer that are considered curable by local treatment are not included as multiple primary cancers. Additionally, this may not apply if the attending physician determines that early-stage cancer will not be a prognostic factor.).
. Has a systemic infection that requires treatment.
. It has been determined that one is infected with HIV or AIDS-related diseases.
. Having an active autoimmune disease that required systemic therapy.
. Having interstitial lung disease.
. Pregnant or breastfeeding.
. Any other cases where the attending physician determines that the treatment in this protocol is inappropriate.
