  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of Participants with Treatment Related Adverse Events [Up to 24 months]

      Safety and tolerability of nivolumab, given in combination with hypofractionated stereotactic re-irradiation of recurrent high grade gliomas.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Response Rate [Up to 36 months]

      All participants will receive efficacy assessments with brain MRI at time points specified in Trial Flow Chart. Cases of suspected radiologic disease progression will be confirmed by an MRI performed approximately 8 weeks after the initial radiological assessment of progression. Immunotherapy Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (iRANO) and Response Assessment Criteria for High-Grade Gliomas (RANO Criteria) will be used for assessing the response to study treatment.

    2. Overall Survival (OS) Rate at 6 Months [6 months]

      OS, utilizing 95% confidence interval (95%CI).

    3. Overall Survival (OS) Rate at 9 Months [9 months]

      OS, utilizing 95% confidence interval (95%CI).

    • An interval of at least 6 months after the end of prior radiation therapy is required unless there is a new recurrence outside of the previous radiotherapy treatment field.

    • An interval of ≥ 4 weeks since surgical resection prior to start of study treatment.

    • An interval of ≥ 4 weeks after the last administration of any investigational agent, bevacizumab, or prior cytotoxic therapy.

    • ≥18 years of age on day of signing informed consent.

    • Karnofsky performance status of 70 or higher.
