Patient aged ≥ 18 years at the time of signing the informed consent

Existing ability to understand and voluntarily sign an informed consent document prior to any study related assessments/procedures

Patient is at "good risk" ( NCCN guidelines version 1.2021)

The following differential diagnoses to LMD are exclusion criteria: a. Aseptic, meningitis b. Viral meningitis, c. Bacterial meningitis

Trial design

Design model

Sequential

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Nivolumab [Opdivo]

    Drug

    Nivolumab (OPDIVO®) is a marketed pharmaceuticals material authorized in the European Union. This study uses an off-label route of administration of nivolumab. Subjects with leptomeningeal disease in solid tumours with an approved indication for intravenous treatment with the PD1 antibody will receive an intrathecal application of nivolumab. A total of six i.th. applications will be performed every 14 days. The intrathecal administration will be performed via an Ommaya reservoir or another intraventricular catheter.

Assessment of Adverse Events for Dose Limiting Toxicities [Safety and Tolerabillity]

This trial will investigate the maximum tolerable dose and safety of intrathecal PD1 antibody administration in LMD of metastatic solid tumors with a registered indication for treatment with intravenous PD1 antibody or PD-1L antibody. The safety endpoints will be assessed by a review of adverse events and serious adverse events according to CTCAE up to 4 months days after last dose.Subjects will undergo 6 cycles each 14 days in duration and a safety visit 7 days after the 3th dosage and 7 days after the 6th dosage.The appropriate dose for the expansion phase (Part II) is based on the results in Part I (dose escalation phase) and will define the maximum tolerable fix dose in Part II.

Time frame
up to 4 months after last dose

Overall Survival

The secondary endpoint is overall survival defined as the time interval from the date of first study administration to the date of progression.

Time frame
last follow-up, up to 4 months after last dose
