Study Summary

This randomized phase II trial studies how well nivolumab with or without ipilimumab works in treating patients with sarcoma that has spread from the primary site to other parts of the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether nivolumab works better with or without ipilimumab in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable sarcoma.

Primary Outcome

The number of participants who achieved a confirmed response is defined as the number of patients having a best objective tumor status of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) lasting at least 4 weeks as determined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v)1.1. (CR: Disappearance of all evidence of disease, PR: Regression of measurable disease and no new sites).
