New combo therapy aims to shrink Hard-to-Treat sarcomas

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Histologically or cytologically confirmed soft tissue sarcoma that is metastatic or unresectable. * Must have received at least one but no more than 3 lines of therapy in the metastatic setting. Neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy completed more than one year prior does not count towards as a line of therapy in the metastatic. Individuals with alveolar soft part sarcoma may enroll without being refractory to at least one line of therapy. * Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1. * At least 18 years of age. * ECOG performance status ≤ 1. * Adequate bone marrow and organ function as defined below: * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 K/cumm without granulocyte colony-stimulating factor support within 2 weeks prior to screening laboratory collection * Platelets ≥ 100 K/cumm without transfusion within 2 weeks prior to screening laboratory collection * Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL without transfusion within 2 weeks prior to screening laboratory collection * INR ≤ 1.5 and aPTT ≤ 1.2 x IULN. For subjects on Factor Xa inhibitors, criteria does not apply. * Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x IULN (for subjects with Gilbert's disease ≤ 3 x IULN) * AST(SGOT), ALT(SGPT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤ 3.0 x IULN.

Low-grade or controlled toxicities such as alopecia, ≤ grade 2 hypomagnesemia, ≤ grade 2 neuropathy are permitted. * Sexually active fertile subjects and their partners must agree to use highly effective method of contraception during the course of the study and for the following durations after the last dose of treatment (whichever is later). An additional contraceptive method, such as a barrier method (eg, condom), is required. In addition, men must agree not to donate sperm and women must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocyte) for the purpose of reproduction during these same periods: * 186 days after last dose of zanzalintinib (for women) or 96 days after last dose of zanzalintinib (for men). * 5 months after the last dose of nivolumab or 3 months after the last dose of ipilimumab. * Female subjects of childbearing potential must not be pregnant at screening. Female subjects are considered to be of childbearing potential unless one of the following criteria is met: permanent sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy) or documented postmenopausal status (defined as 12 months of amenorrhea in a woman \> 45 years-of-age in the absence of other biological or physiological causes.

Note: triplicate ECG evaluations will be performed and the average of these 3 consecutive results for QTcF will be used to determine eligibility. * History of psychiatric illness likely to interfere with ability to comply with protocol requirements or give informed consent. * Pregnant and/or breastfeeding. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days of study entry. * Inability to swallow tablets or ingest a suspension either orally or by a NG or PEG tube. * Another malignancy that requires active therapy and in the opinion of the Investigator would interfere with monitoring of radiologic assessments of response to study treatment, within 2 years before first dose of study treatment, except for superficial skin cancers, or localized, low-grade tumors deemed cured and not treated with systemic therapy * Any active, known, or suspected autoimmune disease. Note: subjects with type I diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism only requiring hormone replacement, skin disorders (such as vitiligo, psoriasis, or alopecia) not requiring systemic treatment, or conditions not expected to recur in the absence of an external trigger, or permitted to enroll. * Known positive test for tuberculosis infection if supported by clinical or radiographic evidence of disease. * History of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, organizing pneumonia (eg, bronchiolitis obliterans), drug induced pneumonitis, idiopathic pneumonitis, or evidence of active pneumonitis on screening chest computerized tomography (CT) scan.
