Summary

This study tests a drug called cabozantinib in people whose osteosarcoma or Ewing sarcoma has returned or worsened after standard treatment. The drug works by blocking enzymes that help cancer cells grow and by cutting off the blood supply tumors need. The main goal is to see if the cancer stays stable or shrinks within 6 months. About 90 participants took part in this phase 2 trial.
