Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Safety Lead-In Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) [ Time Frame: up to 6 weeks post-dosing ]
    A dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as a drug-related AE occurring in the first 6 weeks of study treatment. A participant was considered evaluable for a DLT if study treatment was delayed > 2 weeks or was discontinued due to a related Adverse Event (AE), or if planned study treatment (3 doses of nivolumab in Module A, 2 doses of nivolumab plus ipilimumab in Module B) was administered and safety evaluation after 6 weeks on study is available to the study steering committee (SSC).

  2. Number of Safety Lead-In Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: up to 6 weeks post-dosing ]
    The number of Safety Lead-In Participants who experienced a Serious Adverse Event (SAE) during the course of the study.

  3. Number of Safety Lead-In Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) Leading to Discontinuation [ Time Frame: From first dose to 30 days post-last dose (up to approximately 6 weeks) ]
    The number of Safety Lead-In Participants who experienced an Adverse Event (AE) during the course of the study that lead to discontinuation of study therapy.

  4. Overall Survival (OS), Cohort 1 Only [ Time Frame: up to approximately 42 months ]
    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time between the date of diagnosis and the date of death in Cohort 1.

  5. Progression-Free Survival (PFS), Cohorts 2-4 [ Time Frame: up to approximately 42 months ]
    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from first dose to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause.

  6. Progression-Free Survival (PFS), Cohort 5 Only [ Time Frame: up to approximately 42 months ]
    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from first dose to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS), Cohort 1 Only [ Time Frame: From first dose to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 55 months) ]

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from first dose to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause.

    Progression is defined as:

    • ≥ 25% increase in sum of the products of perpendicular diameters of enhancing lesions compared with the smallest tumor measurement
    • Significant increase in T2 or fast fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) non-enhancing lesions on stable or increasing doses of corticosteroids
    • Any new lesion
    • Clear clinical deterioration not attributable to other causes apart from the tumor
    • Failure to return for evaluation as a result of death or deteriorating condition
    • Clear progression of non-measurable disease

  2. Overall Survival at 12 Months (OS12), Cohorts 1-4 [ Time Frame: From first dose to up to 12 months after first dose ]
    Overall survival at 12 months (OS12) is defined as the percentage of participants who are alive at 12 months, measured as the survival rate at 12 months from Kaplan-Meier product limit cumulative probability.

  3. Progression-Free Survival at 6 Months (PFS6), Cohorts 2-5 [ Time Frame: From first dose to up to 6 months after first dose ]

    Progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS6) is defined as the percentage of participants who are progression free and alive at 6 months following first dose date, measured as the survival rate at 6 months from Kaplan-Meier product limit cumulative probability of progression free.

    Progression is defined as:

    • ≥ 25% increase in sum of the products of perpendicular diameters of enhancing lesions compared with the smallest tumor measurement
    • Significant increase in T2 or fast fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) non-enhancing lesions on stable or increasing doses of corticosteroids
    • Any new lesion
    • Clear clinical deterioration not attributable to other causes apart from the tumor
    • Failure to return for evaluation as a result of death or deteriorating condition
    • Clear progression of non-measurable disease

  4. Overall Survival (OS), Cohorts 2-5 [ Time Frame: From first dose to the date of death (up to approximately 55 months) ]
    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time between date of first dose and the date of death for Cohorts 2-5.

  5. Number of Treated Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: From first dose to 30 days post-last dose (up to approximately an average of 3 months and a maximum of 51 months) ]

    The number of treated participants who experienced an Adverse Event (AE) during the course of the study.

    An AE is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in a clinical investigation participant administered study drug and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (such as an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug.


  6. Number of Treated Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: From first dose to 30 days post-last dose (up to approximately an average of 3 months and a maximum of 51 months) ]

    The number of treated participants who experienced a Serious Adverse Event (SAE) during the course of the study.

    SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose:

    • Results in death
    • Is life-threatening
    • Requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization
    • Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity
    • Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect
    • Is an important medical event

    Note: The reporting timeframe of the SAEs for this Outcome Measure (first dose to 30 days post last dose) differs than that of the reporting timeframe of the SAEs reported under the AE section of the results form (first dose to 100 days post last dose) and thus, the data in each table of SAEs reflects the specific timeframe applied.


  7. Number of Treated Participants With Drug-Related Adverse Events [ Time Frame: From first dose to 30 days post-last dose (up to approximately an average of 3 months and a maximum of 51 months) ]

    The number of treated participants who experienced a Drug-Related Adverse Event during the course of the study.

    An AE is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in a clinical investigation participant administered study drug and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (such as an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug.


  8. Number of Treated Participants With Adverse Events Leading to Discontinuation [ Time Frame: From first dose to 30 days post-last dose (up to approximately an average of 3 months and a maximum of 51 months) ]

    The number of treated participants who experienced an Adverse Event leading to discontinuation during the course of the study.

    An AE is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in a clinical investigation participant administered study drug and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (such as an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug.


  9. Number of Treated Participant Deaths [ Time Frame: From first dose to the date of death (up to approximately 55 months) ]
    The number of treated participants who died during the course of the study.

  10. Number of Treated Participant With Laboratory Abnormalities - Liver [ Time Frame: From first dose to 30 days post-last dose (up to approximately an average of 3 months and a maximum of 51 months) ]

    The number of treated participants who experienced a laboratory abnormality of the liver during the course of the study.

    Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) Units per Liter (U/L) Results reported in International System of Units (SI)


  11. Number of Treated Participant With Laboratory Abnormalities - Thyroid [ Time Frame: From first dose to 30 days post-last dose (up to approximately an average of 3 months and a maximum of 51 months) ]

    The number of treated participants who experienced a laboratory abnormality of the thyroid during the course of the study.
