What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Time frame: Up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time frame: From date of starting nivolumab plus ipilimumab to the date of death from any cause. (Up to 5 years)

  2. Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 by Investigator

    Time frame: From date of starting nivolumab plus ipilimumab to the first date of documented progression, as determined by the investigators (as per RECIST 1.1 criteria), or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. (Up to 5 years)

  3. Change in tumor response over time

    Time frame: Up to 5 years

  4. Duration of Response (DOR)

    Time frame: From first documentation of tumor response after the date of starting nivolumab plus ipilimumab to disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. (Up to 5 years)

  5. The quality of life by National Comprehensive Cancer Network/ Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT)-Kidney Symptom Index 19 (NCCN-FACT FKSI-19) v2.0

    Time frame: Up to 6 months

  6. Number of participants with Adverse Events (AEs)

    Time frame: During the observation period or until 100 days after discontinuation of dosing with nivolumab and ipilimumab (Up to 5 years)

  7. ORR on subsequent therapy

    Time frame: From initiation of a second line of therapy after discontinuation of first line nivolumab+ipilimumab treatment (Up to 5 years)
