Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Dose-limiting toxicities
Up to 2 years

The safety and tolerability of APX005M in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab will be assessed by monitoring the of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) . This will be defined by both DLTs and any of the following AEs (graded by the National Cancer Institute \[NCI\] Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events \[CTCAE\] v5.0) which occur during the first 9 weeks of ipilimumab + nivolumab + APX005M administration that is not clearly due to a cause other than study medication. DLTs in this study do not include reversible grade 3-4 irAEs, that are acceptable and expected with treatment regimens containing ipilimumab and nivolumab, but do include severe, irreversible, non-endocrine adverse events

Recommended dose of APX005M
Up to 2 years

This outcome will determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of APX005M in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab in patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma or renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The RP2D will be defined as a triplet regimen that does not exceed a grade 3-4 irAE rate of approximately 55% or lead to a significant increase in dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) specific to an ipilimumab + nivolumab containing regimen, particularly those which are severe, irreversible, and non-endocrine related events.
