Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Overall response rate of patients. Response will be assessed by RECISTS 1.1 criteria [1 year]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Toxicities as defined by CTCAE criteria [1 year]
To characterize the safety and tolerability of nivolumab in subjects with recurrent/metastatic NPC. This will be based on subjects who experienced toxicities as defined by CTCAE criteria, receiving at least one dose of nivolumab.
