Additionally, patients undergo bone marrow biopsy and aspiration optionally during screening and as clinically indicated on study. Patients undergo blood sample collection on study.

Experimental: Arm F (R-CHOP, nivolumab, radiation therapy) - Patients receive treatment as in Arm D. Within 6-8 weeks after completion of chemotherapy, patients undergo radiation therapy over 25 fractions. Patients undergo ECHO during screening and as clinically indicated and LP for CSF collection optionally during screening. Patients also undergo CT or PET/CT throughout the trial. Additionally, patients undergo bone marrow biopsy and aspiration optionally during screening and as clinically indicated on study. Patients undergo blood sample collection on study.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Age >= 2 years
* Patient must have histologically confirmed primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) as defined by World Health Organization (WHO) criteria
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1, or 2 or ECOG performance status of 3 if poor performance is related to lymphoma
