What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests two drugs—nivolumab and ruxolitinib—together in people whose Hodgkin lymphoma has returned or not responded to treatment. The goal is to find the safest dose of ruxolitinib when combined with a fixed dose of nivolumab, and to see if the combination can control the cancer for at least 3 months. About 54 adults will take part in this early-phase trial.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
nivolumab (Opdivo) and ruxolitinib (Jakafi)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for people with Hodgkin lymphoma that has not responded to standard therapies.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial with only 54 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The combination may cause significant side effects or fail to control the disease.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for release of personal health information. NOTE: HIPAA authorization may be included in the informed consent or obtained separately. * Age ≥ 18 years at the time of consent. * ECOG Performance Status of 0, 1 or 2. * Histologically confirmed diagnosis of classical Hodgkin lymphoma that is relapsed or refractory - historical biopsy at last relapse is acceptable. NOTE: a repeat biopsy is not required for Phase I if the historical biopsy was performed at the most recent relapse, without remission in between. A fresh biopsy is not required for Phase II. * Presence of radiographically measurable disease (defined as the presence one or more ≥ 1.5 cm lesions, as measured in the longest dimension by PET/CT) within 4 weeks of study registration. * Prior therapy with check-point inhibitors (nivolumab, pembrolizumab, others) and subsequent progressive disease, stable disease, mixed response, or relapse * Failed at least one prior therapy * Prior cancer treatment must be completed at least 14 days prior to registration and the patient must have recovered from all reversible acute toxic effects of the regimen (other than alopecia) to ≤Grade 1 or baseline. Radiation therapy must be completed at least 7 days prior to registration. * Absolute Neutrophil Count ≥ 1000/μL * Platelets ≥ 75,000/μL (or ≥50,000/mm3 if known BM involvement) * Calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 40 cc/min using the Cockcroft-Gault formula * Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) * Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 × ULN * Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN * Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to registration. NOTE: Females are considered of child bearing potential unless they are surgically sterile (have undergone a hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or they are naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months * Males who are sexually active with partners of child-bearing potential must be willing to abstain from heterosexual activity or adhere to contraception from the time of written consent until 7 months after treatment discontinuation. * Patient must provide voluntary written informed consent prior to the performance of any research related tests or procedures. Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnant or breastfeeding (NOTE: breast milk cannot be stored for future use while the mother is being treated on study). * Inability or unwillingness to swallow oral medication or any condition that precludes the administration and/or absorption of oral medications * A life-threatening illness, medical condition or organ system dysfunction, which in the investigator's opinion, could compromise the patient's safety, interfere with the metabolism of study drugs, or put the study outcomes at undue risk * Active central nervous system (CNS) involvement by lymphoma * Uncontrolled cardiovascular disease such as uncontrolled or symptomatic arrhythmias, congestive heart failure, or myocardial infarction or any class 3 or 4 cardiac disease as defined by the New York Heart Association Functional Classification * Concomitant therapy with immunosuppressive agents, including systemic corticosteroids (doses ≤ 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent are permitted). * Has a history of autoimmune disease now or in past 3 years such as hepatitis, nephritis, hyperthyroidism, interstitial lung disease or colitis except vitiligo or alopecia, hypothyroidism (eg, following Hashimoto syndrome) stable on hormone replacement or psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment * HIV-infected patients on effective anti-retroviral therapy with undetectable viral load within 6 months of registration are eligible for this trial. * Active Hepatitis B or C infection (defined as a positive Hepatitis B surface antigen (Ag) or detectable viral load by PCR). NOTES: Hepatitis B and C testing is required. Patients with positive Hepatitis B Ag may enroll if PCR is negative. Suppressive antiviral therapy should be considered for these patients as clinically indicated. * Currently active, clinically significant hepatic impairment Child-Pugh class B or C * Currently receiving a strong CYP3A4 Inhibitor (such as but not limited to boceprevir clarithromycin, conivaptan, grapefruit juice, indinavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, lopinavir/ritonavir, mibefradil, nefazodone, nelfinavir, posaconazole, ritonavir, saquinavir, telaprevir, telithromycin, voriconazole) or Fluconazole \>200 mg/day.
