Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?This randomized phase II trial studies how well cabozantinib s-malate and nivolumab work in treating patients with endometrial cancer that has come back (recurrent) or spread to other places in the body (advanced or metastatic). Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cabozantinib and nivolumab may work better in treating endometrial cancer.

Eligibility Criteria

This trial is for adults with advanced, recurrent, or metastatic endometrial cancer who've had at least one platinum-based chemotherapy. They must have measurable disease progression and not be on certain medications or have conditions like uncontrolled illnesses, other active cancers, known brain metastases, or a history of severe allergic reactions to the study drugs.

Participant Groups

The trial is testing the combination of Cabozantinib S-malate (a drug that blocks enzymes needed for tumor growth) and Nivolumab (an immunotherapy that helps the immune system attack cancer). It aims to see if this combo is more effective than current treatments in patients whose endometrial cancer has returned or spread.

Experimental Treatment

Group I: Arm B (nivolumab)Experimental Treatment5 Interventions

Patients receive nivolumab as in Arm A. Patients may cross-over to Arm A at the time of disease progression. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT scan, MRI, and blood sample collection throughout the study and undergo biopsy at screening and optionally at follow up.

Group II: Arm A (cabozantinib s-malate, nivolumab)Experimental Treatment6 Interventions

Patients receive cabozantinib s-malate PO QD on days 1-28 and nivolumab IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 15, then on day 1 beginning cycle 5. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT scan, MRI, and blood sample collection throughout the study and undergo biopsy at screening and optionally at follow up.
