Arms
- Active Comparator: Control ArmThe control arm will consist of intermittent treatment with the Nordic FLOX regimen in terms of 8 cycles before break until disease progression, when therapy is reintroduced and administered for another 8 cycles before a new break. This schedule will be continued until progressive disease on ongoing therapy (PFS), intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or death, whichever occurs first.
- Experimental: Experimental ArmThe experimental arm will consist of repeat 2 cycles of the Nordic FLOX regimen followed by 2 cycles of nivolumab for a total of 8 individual cycles before break until disease progression, when therapy is reintroduced and administered for another total of 8 individual cycles before a new break. This schedule will be continued until progressive disease on ongoing therapy (PFS), intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or death, whichever occurs first.
Primary Outcome Measure
Primary - Progression-free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Through study completion (up to 37 months) ]
