Arms

  • Active Comparator: Arm A (standard of care)
    This is standard of care arm: induction with 4 cycles (21 days each) of Ipilimumab and nivolumab followed by continuation with nivolumab alone every month X1 year (13 doses).
  • Experimental: Arm B (rituximab, hyaluronidase human)
    This includes induction with 4 cycles of ipilimumab and nivolumab X 4 cycles followed by continuation with nivolumab alone every month for 1 year as in standard of care arm. Each induction cycle is 21 days and includes ipilimumab on day 1 plus nivolumab on day 1. In addition, patients will receive 4 weekly doses of Rituxan (first dose intravenously and then 3 weekly doses subcutaneously). First dose of Rituxan will be administered one week following the start of cycle 1 of ipilimumab and nivolumab. All treatments will have a +/-3 business day window for administration.
