CheckMate 436 (NCT02581631) was a phase 1/2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nivolumab, a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor, plus brentuximab vedotin (BV) for the treatment of R/R non-Hodgkin lymphoma.\u003Cbr>Materials and methods: Adult patients received nivolumab plus BV in 3-week cycles. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR). Here, we report the results from the R/R DLBCL cohort (n = 42). Results: With a median follow-up of 7.7 months, the ORR was 28.6%(n = 12), and 7.1%(n = 3) of patients achieved a complete response. Median duration of response (95% CI) was 3.6 (1.2–36.5) months. All patients experienced an adverse event (AE), most commonly diarrhea (n = 20, 47.6%) . Grade 3/4 and 5 AEs occurred in 24 (57.1%) and 4 (9.5%) patients, respectively. Any-grade treatmentrelated AEs occurred in 35 (83.3%) patients. No new safety signals were identified.\u003Cbr>Conclusions: Overall, the efficacy data from CheckMate 436 do not support the use of nivolumab plus BV for the treatment of R/R DLBCL. |  | ARTICLE HISTORY\u003Cbr>Received 23 May 2025 Accepted 1 December 2025\u003Cbr>KEYWORDS\u003Cbr>Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma; nivolumab; brentuximab vedotin; best overall response; immune checkpoint inhibitor; safety |\n| 1.
