Detailed Description
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug to learn whether the drug works in treating a specific disease. "Investigational" means that the drug is being studied.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved DKN-01 as a treatment for any disease.
The FDA has not approved nivolumab for this specific disease but it has been approved for other cancers.
DKN-01 and nivolumab are both antibodies. An antibody is a protein that attaches to other cells to fight off infection. DKN-01 is believed to work by attaching to and inhibiting (stopping) a specific pathway in the cells that is responsible for processes such as cell growth. Nivolumab is believed to work by attaching to and inhibiting a specific protein in the cancer that controls parts of the immune system (the system in the body that fights off infections and diseases) by shutting down certain immune responses. The investigators believe that nivolumab will inhibit the protein, thus allowing the immune cells to recognize and destroy cancer cells.

Treatment with any of the following within the specified time frame prior to the first dose of DKN-01 and nivolumab:
- Any non-investigational or investigational anticancer therapy within 3 weeks or have not recovered from side effects of such therapy prior to treatment administration (mitomycin within prior 5 weeks). For targeted therapy, 5 half-lives are sufficient, even if <3 weeks. Concurrent participation in an observational study may be allowed after review by the Principal Investigator.

- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to DKN-01 or Nivolumab.
A serious illness or medical condition(s) including, but not limited to, the following:

- Known acute systemic infection.
- Myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina, symptomatic congestive heart failure

- Congenital long QT syndrome, or any known history of torsade de pointes, or family history of unexplained sudden death.
- Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that in the judgment of the investigator would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.

Median Progression Free Survival
Time Frame: From the time of randomization until disease progression or death, up to approximately 5 years

The duration of time from randomization until disease progression or death. Disease progression is assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria.

In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression). |
