In plain words
What these results mean for people, not percentages
243 people took part
Objective response rateprimaryresponse endpoint
  • 69 out of 100 people had their tumour shrink with Nivolumab.
  • There was no comparison group, so this number cannot tell you how much of the effect is due to the treatment.
  • A response rate counts how many people had their tumours shrink by a set amount; shrinking is encouraging but does not by itself show that people live longer or feel better.
  • These results apply to the people the trial enrolled: Relapsed/refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma after autologous transplant: nivolumab (cohorts A-C); cohort D nivolumab-AVD frontline. People in a different situation may not see the same effect.

Numbers are from the trial as recorded here; see the source links in the table below. This is orientation, not medical advice: ask your team how closely the trial population matches you.
