                All females of childbearing potential must have a blood test or urine study within 14 days prior to registration to rule out pregnancy.

                A female of childbearing potential is defined as any woman, regardless of sexual orientation or whether they have undergone tubal ligation, who meets the following criteria: 1) has achieved menarche at some point, 2) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or 3) has not been naturally postmenopausal (amenorrhea following cancer therapy does not rule out childbearing potential) for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months).

                Women of childbearing potential and sexually active males must not conceive or father children by using accepted and effective method(s) of contraception or by abstaining from sexual intercourse from the time of study registration and continuing until at least 5 months after the last dose of anti-PD-1 treatment for female patients and for at least 7 months after the last dose of anti-PD-1 treatment for male patients who are sexually active with a WOCBP.

                - Patient must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below: (these labs must be obtained = 4 weeks prior to protocol registration)

                Leukocytes = 3,000/mcL

                Absolute neutrophil count = 1,500/mcL

                Platelets = 100,000/mcL

                Total bilirubin = institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) (patients with history of Gilbert’s syndrome are permitted to have a total bilirubin > 1.5 x institutional ULN)

                AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) = 2.5 × institutional ULN

                Creatinine = 1.5 x institutional ULN

                Step 1 Registration Eligibility Criteria

                - Patient met all eligibility criteria outlined in Section 3.1

                - Patient must register to Step 1 within 4 weeks of registration to Step 0.

                - Patients must meet one of the following criteria:

                - Patient had no positive hypermetabolic lesions on the week 52 FDG-PET/CT.

                - Patients with positive hypermetabolic lesion(s) on the week 52 FDG-PET/CT (positive hypermetabolic = SUV > pooled mediastinal blood), one of the following must have occurred:

                A representative lesion was biopsied (core needle, punch or excisional biopsy) within 14 days of registration to Step 0 and subsequent pathology review performed to determine the presence or absence of viable tumor

                Documentation is present that the patient is not able to undergo biopsy of a hypermetabolic lesion due to feasibility or safety concerns, i.e., the lesion location that is not amenable to biopsy
