OPDIVO is a monoclonal antibody that belongs to a class of drugs that bind to either the programmed death-receptor 1 (PD-1) or the PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1), blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway, thereby removing inhibition of the immune response, potentially breaking peripheral tolerance and inducing immune-mediated adverse reactions. Important immune-mediated adverse reactions listed under Warnings and Precautions may not include all possible severe and fatal immune-mediated reactions.

Immune-mediated adverse reactions, which may be severe or fatal, can occur in any organ system or tissue. Immune-mediated adverse reactions can occur at any time after starting treatment with a PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibody. While immune-mediated adverse reactions usually manifest during treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibodies, immune-mediated adverse reactions can also manifest after discontinuation of PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibodies.

Early identification and management of immune-mediated adverse reactions are essential to ensure safe use of PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibodies. Monitor patients closely for symptoms and signs that may be clinical manifestations of underlying immune-mediated adverse reactions. Evaluate liver enzymes, creatinine, and thyroid function at baseline and periodically during treatment. In cases of suspected immune-mediated adverse reactions, initiate appropriate workup to exclude alternative etiologies, including infection. Institute medical management promptly, including specialty consultation as appropriate.

Withhold or permanently discontinue OPDIVO depending on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. In general, if OPDIVO requires interruption or discontinuation, administer systemic corticosteroid therapy (1 to 2 mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent) until improvement to Grade 1 or less. Upon improvement to Grade 1 or less, initiate corticosteroid taper and continue to taper over at least 1 month. Consider administration of other systemic immunosuppressants in patients whose immune-mediated adverse reactions are not controlled with corticosteroid therapy.

Toxicity management guidelines for adverse reactions that do not necessarily require systemic steroids (e.g., endocrinopathies and dermatologic reactions) are discussed below.

Immune-Mediated Pneumonitis

Additionally, 0.5% (2/368) and 1.4% (5/369) of patients, respectively, experienced adverse reactions within 48 hours of infusion that led to dose delay, permanent discontinuation, or withholding of OPDIVO.

OPDIVO with Ipilimumab

OPDIVO 1 mg/kg with Ipilimumab 3 mg/kg

Infusion-related reactions occurred in 2.5% (10/407) of patients with melanoma and in 8% (4/49) of patients with HCC who received OPDIVO 1 mg/kg with ipilimumab 3 mg/kg every 3 weeks.

OPDIVO 3 mg/kg with Ipilimumab 1 mg/kg

Infusion-related reactions occurred in 5.1% (28/547) of patients with RCC and 4.2% (5/119) of patients with CRC who received OPDIVO 3 mg/kg with ipilimumab 1 mg/kg every 3 weeks, respectively. Infusion-related reactions occurred in 12% (37/300) of patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma who received OPDIVO 3 mg/kg every 2 weeks with ipilimumab 1 mg/kg every 6 weeks.

5.3 Complications of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Fatal and other serious complications can occur in patients who receive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) before or after being treated with a PD-1 receptor blocking antibody. Transplant-related complications include hyperacute graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD), acute GVHD, chronic GVHD, hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) after reduced intensity conditioning, and steroid-requiring febrile syndrome (without an identified infectious cause) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. These complications may occur despite intervening therapy between PD-1 blockade and allogeneic HSCT.

Follow patients closely for evidence of transplant-related complications and intervene promptly. Consider the benefit versus risks of treatment with a PD-1 receptor blocking antibody prior to or after an allogeneic HSCT.

5.4 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

Based on its mechanism of action and data from animal studies, OPDIVO can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In animal reproduction studies, administration of nivolumab to cynomolgus monkeys from the onset of organogenesis through delivery resulted in increased abortion and premature infant death. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with OPDIVO and for 5 months after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].

5.5 Increased Mortality in Patients with Multiple Myeloma when OPDIVO Is Added to a Thalidomide Analogue and Dexamethasone

In randomized clinical trials in patients with multiple myeloma, the addition of a PD-1 blocking antibody, including OPDIVO, to a thalidomide analogue plus dexamethasone, a use for which no PD-1 or PD-L1 blocking antibody is indicated, resulted in increased mortality. Treatment of patients with multiple myeloma with a PD-1 or PD-L1 blocking antibody in combination with a thalidomide analogue plus dexamethasone is not recommended outside of controlled clinical trials.

Unresectable or Metastatic Melanoma

Previously Treated Metastatic Melanoma

The safety of OPDIVO was evaluated in CHECKMATE-037, a randomized, open-label trial in 370 patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. Patients had documented disease progression following treatment with ipilimumab and, if BRAF V600 mutation positive, a BRAF inhibitor. The trial excluded patients with autoimmune disease, prior ipilimumab-related Grade 4 adverse reactions (except for endocrinopathies) or Grade 3 ipilimumab-related adverse reactions that had not resolved or were inadequately controlled within 12 weeks of the initiating event, patients with a condition requiring chronic systemic treatment with corticosteroids (>10 mg daily prednisone equivalent) or other immunosuppressive medications, a positive test for hepatitis B or C, and a history of HIV. Patients received OPDIVO 3 mg/kg by intravenous infusion over 60 minutes every 2 weeks (n=268) or investigator’s choice of chemotherapy (n=102): dacarbazine 1000 mg/m² intravenously every 3 weeks or carboplatin AUC 6 mg/mL/min and paclitaxel 175 mg/m² intravenously every 3 weeks. The median duration of exposure was 5.3 months (range: 1 day to 13.8+ months) in OPDIVO-treated patients and was 2 months (range: 1 day to 9.6+ months) in chemotherapy-treated patients. In this ongoing trial, 24% of patients received OPDIVO for >6 months and 3% of patients received OPDIVO for >1 year.

The population characteristics in the OPDIVO group and the chemotherapy group were similar: 66% male, median age 59.5 years, 98% White, baseline Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 (59%) or 1 (41%), 74% with M1c stage disease, 73% with cutaneous melanoma, 11% with mucosal melanoma, 73% received two or more prior therapies for advanced or metastatic disease, and 18% had brain metastasis. There were more patients in the OPDIVO group with elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) at baseline (51% vs. 38%).

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 41% of patients receiving OPDIVO. OPDIVO was discontinued for adverse reactions in 9% of patients. Twenty-six percent of patients receiving OPDIVO had a dose interruption for an adverse reaction. Grade 3 and 4 adverse reactions occurred in 42% of patients receiving OPDIVO. The most frequent Grade 3 and 4 adverse reactions reported in 2% to <5% of patients receiving OPDIVO were abdominal pain, hyponatremia, increased aspartate aminotransferase, and increased lipase. The most common adverse reaction (reported in ≥20% of patients) was rash.

Tables 5 and 6 summarize the adverse reactions and laboratory abnormalities, respectively, in CHECKMATE-037.

CHECKMATE-066

The safety of OPDIVO was also evaluated in CHECKMATE-066, a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial in 411 previously untreated patients with BRAF V600 wild-type unresectable or metastatic melanoma [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. The trial excluded patients with autoimmune disease and patients requiring chronic systemic treatment with corticosteroids (>10 mg daily prednisone equivalent) or other immunosuppressive medications. Patients received OPDIVO 3 mg/kg by intravenous infusion over 60 minutes every 2 weeks (n=206) or dacarbazine 1000 mg/m² intravenously every 3 weeks (n=205). The median duration of exposure was 6.5 months (range: 1 day to 16.6 months) in OPDIVO-treated patients. In this trial, 47% of patients received OPDIVO for >6 months and 12% of patients received OPDIVO for >1 year.

The trial population characteristics in the OPDIVO group and dacarbazine group: 59% male, median age 65 years, 99.5% White, 61% with M1c stage disease, 74% with cutaneous melanoma, 11% with mucosal melanoma, 4% with brain metastasis, and 37% with elevated LDH at baseline. There were more patients in the OPDIVO group with ECOG performance status 0 (71% vs. 59%).

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 36% of patients receiving OPDIVO. Adverse reactions led to permanent discontinuation of OPDIVO in 7% of patients and dose interruption in 26% of patients; no single type of adverse reaction accounted for the majority of OPDIVO discontinuations. Grade 3 and 4 adverse reactions occurred in 41% of patients receiving OPDIVO.

The most frequent Grade 3 and 4 adverse reactions reported in ≥2% of patients receiving OPDIVO were increased gamma-glutamyl transferase (3.9%) and diarrhea (3.4%). The most common adverse reactions (reported in ≥20% of patients and at a higher incidence than in the dacarbazine arm) were fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, rash, and pruritus.

CHECKMATE-067

The safety of OPDIVO, administered with ipilimumab or as a single agent, was evaluated in CHECKMATE-067, a randomized (1:1:1), double-blind trial in 937 patients with previously untreated, unresectable or metastatic melanoma [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. The trial excluded patients with autoimmune disease, a medical condition requiring systemic treatment with corticosteroids (more than 10 mg daily prednisone equivalent) or other immunosuppressive medication within 14 days of the start of study therapy, a positive test result for hepatitis B or C, or a history of HIV.

Patients were randomized to receive:

OPDIVO 1 mg/kg over 60 minutes with ipilimumab 3 mg/kg by intravenous infusion every 3 weeks for 4 doses followed by OPDIVO as a single agent at a dose of 3 mg/kg by intravenous infusion over 60 minutes every 2 weeks (OPDIVO and ipilimumab arm; n=313), or
OPDIVO 3 mg/kg by intravenous infusion over 60 minutes every 2 weeks (OPDIVO arm; n=313), or
Ipilimumab 3 mg/kg by intravenous infusion every 3 weeks for up to 4 doses (ipilimumab arm; n=311).

The median duration of exposure to OPDIVO was 2.8 months (range: 1 day to 36.4 months) for the OPDIVO and ipilimumab arm and 6.6 months (range: 1 day to 36.0 months) for the OPDIVO arm. In the OPDIVO and ipilimumab arm, 39% were exposed to OPDIVO for ≥6 months and 30% exposed for >1 year. In the OPDIVO arm, 53% were exposed for ≥6 months and 40% for >1 year.

The population characteristics were: 65% male, median age 61 years, 97% White, baseline ECOG performance status 0 (73%) or 1 (27%), 93% with American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Stage IV disease, 58% with M1c stage disease; 36% with elevated LDH at baseline, 4% with a history of brain metastasis, and 22% had received adjuvant therapy.

Serious adverse reactions (74% and 44%), adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation (47% and 18%) or to dosing delays (58% and 36%), and Grade 3 or 4 adverse reactions (72% and 51%) all occurred more frequently in the OPDIVO and ipilimumab arm relative to the OPDIVO arm.

The most frequent (≥10%) serious adverse reactions in the OPDIVO and ipilimumab arm and the OPDIVO arm, respectively, were diarrhea (13% and 2.2%), colitis (10% and 1.9%), and pyrexia (10% and 1.0%). The most frequent adverse reactions leading to discontinuation of both drugs in the OPDIVO and ipilimumab arm and of OPDIVO in the OPDIVO arm, respectively, were colitis (10% and 0.6%), diarrhea (8% and 2.2%), increased ALT (4.8% and 1.0%), increased AST (4.5% and 0.6%), and pneumonitis (1.9% and 0.3%).

The most common (≥20%) adverse reactions in the OPDIVO and ipilimumab arm were fatigue, diarrhea, rash, nausea, pyrexia, pruritus, musculoskeletal pain, vomiting, decreased appetite, cough, headache, dyspnea, upper respiratory tract infection, arthralgia, and increased transaminases. The most common (≥20%) adverse reactions in the OPDIVO arm were fatigue, rash, musculoskeletal pain, diarrhea, nausea, cough, pruritus, upper respiratory tract infection, decreased appetite, headache, constipation, arthralgia, and vomiting.

Adjuvant Treatment of Melanoma

CHECKMATE-76K

The safety of OPDIVO as a single agent was evaluated in CHECKMATE-76K, a randomized (2:1), double-blind trial in 788 patients with completely resected Stage IIB/C melanoma who received OPDIVO 480 mg by intravenous infusion over 30 minutes every 4 weeks (n=524) or placebo by intravenous infusion over 30 minutes every 4 weeks (n=264) for up to 1 year [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. The median duration of exposure was 11 months in patients treated with OPDIVO and 11 months in patients treated with placebo.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 18% of patients treated with OPDIVO. A fatal adverse reaction occurred in 1 (0.2%) patient (heart failure and acute kidney injury). Permanent discontinuation of OPDIVO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 17% of patients. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of OPDIVO in >1% of patients included diarrhea (1.1%), arthralgia (1.7%), and rash (1.7%).

Dosage interruptions of OPDIVO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 25% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dosage interruption in >1% of patients included COVID-19 infection, infusion related reaction, diarrhea, arthralgia, and increased ALT.

The most common adverse reactions (reported in ≥20% of patients) were fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, rash, diarrhea, and pruritus.

CHECKMATE-238

The safety of OPDIVO as a single agent was evaluated in CHECKMATE-238, a randomized (1:1), double-blind trial in 905 patients with completely resected Stage IIIB/C or Stage IV melanoma received OPDIVO 3 mg/kg by intravenous infusion over 60 minutes every 2 weeks (n=452) or ipilimumab 10 mg/kg by intravenous infusion every 3 weeks for 4 doses then every 12 weeks beginning at Week 24 for up to 1 year (n=453) [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. The median duration of exposure was 11.5 months in OPDIVO-treated patients and was 2.7 months in ipilimumab-treated patients. In this ongoing trial, 74% of patients received OPDIVO for >6 months.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 18% of OPDIVO-treated patients. Study therapy was discontinued for adverse reactions in 9% of OPDIVO-treated patients and 42% of ipilimumab-treated patients. Twenty-eight percent of OPDIVO-treated patients had at least one omitted dose for an adverse reaction. Grade 3 or 4 adverse reactions occurred in 25% of OPDIVO-treated patients.

The most frequent Grade 3 and 4 adverse reactions reported in ≥2% of OPDIVO-treated patients were diarrhea and increased lipase and amylase. The most common adverse reactions (at least 20%) were fatigue, diarrhea, rash, musculoskeletal pain, pruritus, headache, nausea, upper respiratory infection, and abdominal pain. The most common immune-mediated adverse reactions were rash (16%), diarrhea/colitis (6%), and hepatitis (3%).

Neoadjuvant Treatment of Resectable (Tumors ≥4 cm or Node Positive) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

The safety of OPDIVO in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy was evaluated in CHECKMATE-816, a randomized, open-label, multicenter trial in patients with resectable NSCLC [see Clinical Studies (14.3)]. Patients received either OPDIVO 360 mg administered in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy administered every 3 weeks for 3 cycles; or platinum-doublet chemotherapy administered every 3 weeks for 3 cycles.

The median age of patients who received OPDIVO in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy or platinum-doublet chemotherapy was 65 years (range: 34 – 84); 72% male; 47% White, 50% Asian, and 2% Black/African-American.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 30% of patients who were treated with OPDIVO in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy. Serious adverse reactions in >2% included pneumonia and vomiting. No fatal adverse reactions occurred in patients who received OPDIVO in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy.

Study therapy with OPDIVO in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy was permanently discontinued for adverse reactions in 10% of patients and 30% had at least one treatment withheld for an adverse reaction. The most common adverse reactions (≥1%) resulting in permanent discontinuation of OPDIVO in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy were anaphylactic reaction (1.7%), acute kidney injury (1.1%), rash (1.1%), and fatigue (1.1%).

The most common (>20%) adverse reactions were nausea, constipation, fatigue, decreased appetite, and rash. The most common Grade 3 or 4 laboratory abnormalities (≥2%) were neutropenia, hyperglycemia, leukopenia, lymphopenia, increased amylase, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and hyponatremia.

Tables 15 and 16 summarize selected adverse reactions and laboratory abnormalities, respectively, in CHECKMATE-816.
