    I found a Youtube video of Dr. Suzanne Topalian discussing the preliminary results of the Phase 1b clinical trial of BMS's anti-PD-1 antibody MDX-1106/BMS-936558  in June 2012.

    Basically, 70% of patients had adverse events, most common events (~50% of patients) were fatigue, rash, and diarrhea.

    For melanoma patients (n=96) 28% had either a partial or a complete response and an additional 6% had stable disease for at least 6 months. Of 31 patients that responded 20, were still responding after 1yr.
