Nivolumab (Opdivo®) Plus ABI-009 (Nab-rapamycin) for Advanced Sarcoma and Certain Cancers

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ABI-009, an mTOR inhibitor, when given sequentially with nivolumab in advanced Ewing's sarcoma, PEComa, epithelioid sarcoma, desmoid tumor, chordoma, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, urothelial carcinoma, melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck, hepatocellular carcinoma, classical Hodgkin's lymphoma, MSI-H/dMMR metastatic colorectal cancer, and tumors with genetic mutations sensitive to mTOR inhibitors. The secondary objectives are to investigate the disease control rate (DCR) and progression free survival (PFS) using nivolumab/ABI-009 combination therapy in advanced Ewing's sarcoma, PEComa, epithelioid sarcoma, desmoid tumor, chordoma, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, urothelial carcinoma, melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck, hepatocellular carcinoma, classical Hodgkin's lymphoma, MSI-H/dMMR metastatic colorectal cancer, and tumors with genetic mutations sensitive to mTOR inhibitors. The exploratory objectives are (1) To correlate progression free survival (PFS) based on Immune-related Response Criteria (irRECIST) with that based on RECIST v1.1, and (2) To correlate PFS with programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in patients' tumors.
