Brief Summary: This research study is studying a drug intervention as a possible treatment for lung cancer

The drugs involved in this study are

Nivolumab
Carboplatin
Pemetrexed
Ipilimumab
Detailed Description: This research study is a Phase II clinical trial Phase II clinical trials test the safety and effectiveness of an investigational intervention to learn whether the intervention works in treating a specific disease

The FDA the US Food and Drug Administration has approved Nivolumab as a treatment for other types of cancers including lung cancer However the combination of Nivolumab with other drugs such as those being tested in this study has not been approved by the FDA as a treatment for this type of lung cancer

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness how well the drug works safety and tolerability of the drug Nivolumab in combination with standard of care chemotherapies or in combination with Ipilimumab Nivolumab and Ipilimumab are antibodies a type of human protein that are being tested to see if they will allow the bodys immune system to work against tumor cells This study is being done to see if Nivolumab and Ipilimumab or Nivolumab and chemotherapy drugs Carboplatin and Pemetrexed are more effective against cancer when administered together

These drugs are given as infusions They are designed to boost the immune systems ability to suppress or kill cancer cells that are foreign to the human body
