11010 Background: Monotherapy checkpoint inhibitors have minimal efficacy in most patients with metastatic sarcoma. NKTR-214 is a CD122-preferential IL-2 pathway agonist that activates and expands natural killer and CD8+ T cells. Phase I/II data demonstrated the safety and efficacy of nivolumab plus NKTR-214 in multiple tumor types. A trial of NKTR-214 plus nivolumab was initiated in patients with selected sarcomas. Methods: This is a multi-center pilot study enrolling patients (pts) failing prior regimens within 9 cohorts: leiomyosarcoma (LMS), undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS), dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS), chondrosarcoma (CS), osteosarcoma (OS), angiosarcoma (AS), alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS), synovial sarcoma/small blue round cell and other. Pts received NKTR 0.006mg/kg with nivolumab 360 mg every 3 weeks. Primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR), secondary endpoints were adverse events (AEs), progression-free, overall survival (PFS,OS) and clinical benefit rate (CBR.) Pre/on treatment biopsies performed on patients for correlative studies including PD-L1 expression and TIL characterization by immunohistochemistry, whole exome sequencing and RNAseq. Results: Enrollment completed with 10 patients in cohorts below. 50 pts enrolled (median age 58, range 14-80), 54% female. Median follow-up time is 13m. 50% of patients were refractory ≥3 lines of therapy. Grade 3/4 treatment related adverse events occurred in 26% of patients. 2% of patients stopped due to AEs. Median time to response was 3.6m. Responses seen in LMS, UPS, dedifferentiated CS; on-going in UPS/CS. Prolonged disease stability in DDLPS. 6 patients remain on treatment. Conclusions: Nivolumab plus NKTR-214 was safe and tolerable in heavily pre-treated and refractory sarcoma patients. Responses were protracted overtime; on-going in UPS and dedifferentiated CS. Prolonged disease stability seen in DDLPS in patients. All correlative analyses are in progress and will be presented. Enrollment continues with plans to add a treatment naïve cohort.
