Study population

The study population consists of 417 adults treated with nivolumab for histologically or cytologically confirmed melanoma and 772 adults treated with nivolumab for histologically or cytologically confirmed lung cancer in accordance with the approved indications in Australia, the EU, Switzerland, the UK, and the US. The targeted countries in the EU for participant enrollment include Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Poland, and Spain. Participants who begin treatment with nivolumab for the first time will be enrolled in accordance with the approved indications and whose treatment strategy was determined independently from consideration of study participation. Treatment will be determined at the treating physician's discretion and with the participant's consent.
