Study Summary

The investigators propose to evaluate the safety of drug combinations in patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancer and other gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies. Finding effective novel therapies for patients with advanced gastric cancer and other GI malignancies is an area of great unmet need. The investigators believe that modulating the tumor microenvironment with biologic agents like cabozantinib will have synergistic effect when combined with checkpoint-based immunotherapeutics like durvalumab in this patient population. This is a phase I/II, open label, multi-cohort trial looking at safety, tolerability and efficacy endpoints.

Primary Outcome

Defined as the highest dose studied for which the observed incidence of dose limiting toxicities (DLT) is less than 33%. Determined per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.
