高リスクおよび低リスクの HIV 関連肛門がんに適応した治療法

Inclusion Criteria:

• HIGH-RISK STRATUM: Participant is able to understand and willing to sign a written informed consent document

• HIGH-RISK STRATUM: Participant must have histologically proven stage (T3-T4N0M0 OR T2-4N1M0) invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the anus or anorectum as documented before CRT initiation, according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition. Participants with squamous cell carcinoma of the anal margin are eligible if there is evidence of extension of the primary tumor into the anal canal. Participants with tumors of non-keratinizing histology such as basaloid, transitional cell or cloacogenic histology are permitted

• HIGH-RISK STRATUM: HIV-positive. Documentation of HIV-1 infection by means of any one of the following:

  • Documentation of HIV diagnosis in the medical record by a licensed health care provider. If the record contains information that the patient is taking Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved combination therapy for HIV infection, then this can be part of the record substantiating the HIV positive diagnosis

  • HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) detection by a licensed HIV-1 RNA assay demonstrating > 1000 RNA copies/mL

  • Any licensed HIV screening antibody and/or HIV antibody/antigen combination assay confirmed by a second licensed HIV assay such as a HIV-1 Western blot confirmation or HIV rapid multispot antibody differentiation assay.

    • NOTE: The term "licensed" refers to a kit that has been certified or licensed by an oversight body within the participating country and validated internally (e.g., United States [U.S.] FDA)
    • WHO (World Health Organization) and CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines mandate that confirmation of the initial test result must use a test that is different from the one used for the initial assessment. A reactive initial rapid test must be confirmed by either another type of rapid assay or an E/CIA that is based on a different antigen preparation and/or different test principle (e.g., indirect versus competitive), or a Western blot or a plasma HIV-1 RNA viral load

• HIGH-RISK STRATUM: Age >= 18 years

  • Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of nivolumab in participants < 18 years of age, children are excluded from this study

• HIGH-RISK STRATUM: Females of childbearing potential (FOCBP) must agree to follow contraception requirements:

  • The effects of nivolumab on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason and because other therapeutic agents used in this trial are known to be teratogenic, FOCBP must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) before study entry, for the duration of study participation and 5 months after completion of nivolumab administration. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately

    • NOTE: A female of childbearing potential is any woman, regardless of sexual orientation or whether they have undergone tubal ligation, who meets the following criteria: 1) has achieved menarche at some point, 2) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or 2) has not been naturally postmenopausal (amenorrhea following cancer therapy does not rule out childbearing potential) for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months)

• HIGH-RISK STRATUM: Participant must have a CD4 count of >= 100 cells/uL at least 2 weeks prior to enrollment OR >= 100 cells/uL before receiving prior CRT, as CD4 may be low due to the effects of CRT

  • Participants with grade 1 or grade 2 diarrhea are eligible provided stool for ova/parasites and stool cryptosporidium studies are negative

• HIGH-RISK STRATUM: Purified protein derivative (PPD) negative. Alternatively, the QuantiFERON-tuberculosis (TB) Gold In-Tube (QFT-GIT) assay (Cellestis Limited, Carnegie, Australia) can be used. An individual is considered positive for M. tuberculosis infection if the interferon (IFN)-gamma response to TB antigens is above the test cut-off (after subtracting the background IFN-gamma response in the negative control). The result must be obtained within 20 weeks prior to enrollment. PPD positive (or QuantiFERON assay positive) participants are permitted if prophylaxis has been completed prior to enrollment

Imaging centers should follow their local routine guidelines for determination of patient eligibility for IV contrast injection and appropriate post contrast follow up renal function determinations

• SCREENING ELIGIBILITY LOW-RISK STRATUM: Participant is able to understand and willing to sign a written informed consent document

• SCREENING ELIGIBILITY LOW-RISK STRATUM: Age >= 18 years

  • Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of low-dose radiation concurrent with mitomycin-C/fluorouracil (5-FU) or mitomycin-C/capecitabine in participants < 18 years of age, children are excluded from this study

• SCREENING ELIGIBILITY LOW-RISK STRATUM: Participant must have histologically proven T1-2N0M0 invasive anal canal or anal margin squamous cell carcinoma with tumors measuring =< 4 cm within 6 weeks before pre-registration. Measurable disease is not required. Participants with tumors of non-keratinizing histology such as basaloid, transitional cell, or cloacogenic histology are permitted. Participants who are status/post local excision or excisional biopsy procedure are eligible provided there was tumor involvement of the anal canal and/or anal verge prior to the reaction, if the margins were positive, and/or if the stage is T2N0 based on tumor size before the procedure. This means that participants with T1N0M0 anal margin squamous cell carcinoma who underwent surgical excision with negative margins and no involvement of the anal verge and/or anal canal are not eligible Baseline imaging including, FDG-PET/CT and A/P C+CT must be submitted for central review for confirmation of no lymph node involvement. Results of central review (including discrepancies between local read and central review) will be returned to the site within 5 business days of submission, allowing participants with imaging suspicious for lymph node (LN) involvement determined by central review to undergo a fine needle aspirate (FNA) or core biopsy at their local center confirming no lymph node involvement (N0) for eligibility

  • Examples of live vaccines include, but are not limited to, the following: measles, mumps, rubella, chicken pox, yellow fever, rabies, Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), and typhoid (oral) vaccine. Seasonal influenza vaccines for injection are generally killed virus vaccines and are allowed; however, intranasal influenza vaccines (e.g., Flu-Mist) are live attenuated vaccines and are not allowed

• HIGH-RISK STRATUM: Pregnant or breastfeeding.

  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study because nivolumab is an anti-PD-1MAb agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with nivolumab, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with nivolumab
