This is a Phase II single-arm, single-site, open label clinical trial with r/r HL patients,
aimed to determine whether a RadVax approach using low-dose RT added to nivolumab can improve
response among patients who do not achieve a CR to nivolumab alone. The long-term goal is to
develop an effective regimen for r/r HL patients.

- Relapsed/refractory disease.
- ≥2 sites of measurable disease, at least one outside of intended RT fields.
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- ECOG performance status of 0-2.
- Standard laboratory criteria for hematologic, and biochemical, and urinary indices
within a range that, in the opinion of the physician, clinically supports enrollment
of the subject on the trial.

during participation in this trial.
- Ability to provide written informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:

- Prior organ allograft or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.
- Subjects with contraindications to immune checkpoint therapy, as follows:
- Interstitial lung disease that is symptomatic or may interfere with the detection and
management of suspected drug-related pulmonary toxicity.
- Prior organ allograft or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.
- Pre-existing thyroid abnormality with thyroid function that cannot be maintained in
the normal range with medication.
- Active autoimmune disease, except for vitiligo, type 1 diabetes mellitus, asthma,
atopic dermatitis, or endocrinopathies manageable by hormone replacement; other
autoimmune conditions may be allowable at the discretion of the principal
investigator.
- Condition requiring systemic treatment with either corticosteroids.
