A Randomized Phase 2 Study of Cabozantinib in Combination With Nivolumab in Advanced, Recurrent Metastatic Endometrial Cancer

This randomized phase II trial studies how well cabozantinib and nivolumab work in treating
patients with endometrial that has come back or spread to other places in the body.
Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for
cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may interfere with the ability of
tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cabozantinib and nivolumab may work better in treating
endometrial cancer.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the clinical anti-tumor activity of XL184 (cabozantinib) and nivolumab based
on progression free survival (PFS) in patients with advanced, recurrent or metastatic
endometrial cancer previously treated with at least one line of platinum-based chemotherapy
compared to patients receiving nivolumab alone.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the efficacy of XL184 and nivolumab in terms of overall response rate (ORR)
compared to nivolumab alone.

II. To evaluate overall survival (OS) of patients receiving XL184 and nivolumab compared to
patients receiving nivolumab alone.

III. To evaluate the safety of combination treatment using XL184 and nivolumab in patients
with advanced, recurrent metastatic endometrial cancer.

IV. To evaluate correlation between PD-L1 expression, CD3, CD4 and CD8 infiltrates and
outcome (PFS, ORR, OS).

V. To compare PD-L1 expression, CD3, CD4 and CD8 infiltrates in the primary tumor (archival
tissue) and in the tissue from baseline biopsy.

VI. To assess activity (PFS, ORR and OS) of nivolumab alone or in combination with XL184
according to microsatellite instability (MSI)/mismatched repair (MMR) status.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess activity (PFS, ORR and OS) of XL184 and nivolumab in patients progressed after
previous exposure to anti PD-1, PD-L1 or PD-L2 agents or crossed-over from single agent
nivolumab, and in patients with diagnosis of carcinosarcoma.

II. To compare microsatellite (MS) and MMR status, in the primary tumor (archival tissue) and
in the tissue from baseline biopsy.

III. To assess the genomic and immune-markers landscape at baseline on tumor tissue and
changes in immune landscape in peripheral blood during treatment and correlate with outcome.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

Arm A: Patients receive cabozantinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28 and nivolumab
intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes on days 1 and 15, then on day 1 beginning course 5.

Arm B: Patients receive nivolumab as in Arm A. Patients may cross-over to Arm A at the time
of disease progression.

In both arms, courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30-37 days, then every 12
weeks.
