Trial design

Randomised, placebo comparator: sodium chloride (solution for infusion) used as placebo (product details list max total dose 100 ml infusion). active intervention: opdivo (nivolumab) 10 mg/ml concentrate for solution for infusion (product details list max total dose 480 mg infusion). trial compares ilp (melphalan) + nivolumab versus ilp + placebo in a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized design. Phase I/II|Phase II trial in Sweden, Netherlands.
