Nivolumab

Nivolumab, is a targeted therapy drug used in cancer treatment. Here are the key points:

  • Purpose and Mechanism:

    • Nivolumab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor that binds to the protein PD-1 on immune cells called T cells.
    • It helps prevent cancer cells from suppressing the immune system, allowing the immune system to fight cancer more effectively.
  • Administration:

    • Nivolumab is given as an intravenous infusion (IV) in a hospital or clinic.
    • The infusion takes 30 to 90 minutes and is usually given once every 2 to 4 weeks.
    • Depending on your specific cancer type and treatment plan, it may be combined with other medications like ipilimumab or chemotherapy.
  • Indications:

    • Nivolumab is used to treat various cancers, including melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, renal cell cancer, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, head and neck cancer, colorectal cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and malignant pleural mesothelioma.
