BMS announced that the European Commission has expanded the indication for its Opdivo® (nivolumab) as a monotherapy for adjuvant treatment of patients over 12 with stage IIB or IIC melanoma who have undergone complete resection.  Opdivo® is now the only PD-1 inhibitor that is indicated to treat stages IIB, IIC, III, and IV resected melanoma.
