Study Summary

This trial is testing the side effects and best dose of XL888 when given with pembrolizumab to treat patients with advanced gastrointestinal cancer. XL888 may stop tumor growth by blocking enzymes needed for cell growth. Pembrolizumab may block tumor growth by targeting certain cells. Giving XL888 with pembrolizumab may work better to treat patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
