Study Summary

This study will be looking at whether MK-3475 (an antibody that blocks negative signals to T cells) is effective (anti-tumor activity) and safe in three different patient populations. These include: 1. patients with MSI positive colon cancer, 2. patients with MSI negative colon cancer and 3. patients with other MSI positive cancers.

Primary Outcome

For Cohorts A and B: irPFS rate is defined as the percentage of patients with disease progression (irPD or relapse from irCR as assessed using irRC criteria) or death due to any cause at 20 weeks. Per irRC criteria, Complete Response (irCR) is the disappearance of all target lesions, Partial Response (irPR) is a decrease in tumor burden by 50% or greater by a consecutive assessment at least 4 weeks after first documentation, Stable Disease (irSD) is the failure to meet criteria for irCR or irPR
