A Phase I Trial of Anti-LAG-3 or Anti-CD137 Alone and in Combination With Anti-PD-1 in Patients With Recurrent GBM
This phase I trial studies the safety and best dose of anti-LAG-3 (anti-LAG-3 monoclonal
antibody BMS-986016) or urelumab alone and in combination with nivolumab in treating patients
with glioblastoma that has returned (recurrent). Anti-LAG-3 monoclonal antibody BMS-986016,
urelumab, and nivolumab are antibodies (a type of protein) that may stimulate the cells in
the immune system to attack tumor cells. It is not yet known whether anti-LAG-3 monoclonal
antibody BMS-986016 or urelumab alone or in combination with nivolumab may kill more tumor
cells. (The Anti-CD137 antibody (BMS-663513 - urelumab) treatment arm closed by BMS on
10/16/18 due to closure of BMS Urelumab development program. Subjects currently on treatment
may continue.)

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine a maximum tolerated dose or maximum administrated dose of anti-lymphocyte
activation gene-3 (LAG-3) antibody (BMS-986016) (anti-LAG-3 monoclonal antibody BMS-986016)
and anti-cluster of differentiation 137 (CD137) antibody (BMS- 663513) (urelumab) given
independently and in combination with anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) antibody (nivolumab,
BMS-936558) safely in patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To estimate overall survival. II. To estimate 1 year progression-free survival (PFS) rate.
III. To estimate radiographic response (radiographic assessment in neuro-oncology [RANO] and
immunotherapy response assessment for neuro-oncology [iRANO]).
TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the pharmacodynamic effects of anti-LAG-3 antibody (BMS-986016), anti-CD137
antibody (BMS- 663513), and/or anti-PD-1 antibody (BMS-936558) on biomarkers in peripheral
blood, including the T cell compartments, and serum proteins (cytokines and other immune
modulators).
II. To assess the pharmacodynamic activity in tumor tissue and peripheral blood in treated
subjects who undergo optional tumor biopsies.
III. To explore potential associations between biomarker measures and anti-tumor activity by
analyzing markers of inflammation, immune activation, host tumor growth factors, and
tumor-derived proteins in the pre-treatment and on-treatment setting.
IV. To further characterize the occupancy and immune cell function at multiple dose levels of
anti-LAG-3 antibody (BMS-986016), anti-CD137 antibody (BMS-663513), and/or anti-PD-1 antibody
(BMS-936558).
V. To explore characteristics of tumor immune microenvironment changes after the treatment of
anti-LAG-3, anti-CD137, and its combination treatment with anti- PD-1 in surgically indicated
patients undergoing tumor resection
OUTLINE:
PART A: This is a dose-escalation study of the monotherapy of Anti-LAG-3 monoclonal antibody
BMS-986016 and Anti-CD137 (urelumab). Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive anti-LAG-3 monoclonal antibody BMS-986016 intravenously (IV) on days
1 and 15. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 24 courses in the absence of disease
progression or unacceptable toxicity.
ARM II: Patients receive anti-CD137 (urelumab) IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days
for up to 15 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
PART B: This is the dose-escalation combination therapy portion study of Anti-LAG-3
monoclonal antibody BMS-986016 plus Anti-PD-1(nivolumab) and Anti-CD137 (urelumab) plus
Anti-PD-1 (nivolumab). Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive Anti-PD-1 (nivolumab) IV over 60 minutes and anti-LAG-3 monoclonal
antibody BMS-986016 IV on days 1 and 15. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 24 courses
in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
ARM II: Patients receive Anti-PD-1 (nivolumab) IV over 60 minutes on days 1 and 15 and
urelumab IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 24 courses in the absence of
