Evidence of bleeding diathesis or significant coagulopathy (in the absence of therapeutic anticoagulation)
o Clinically significant hematuria, hematemesis, or hemoptysis of >0.5 tsp (2.5ml) of red blood or other history of significant bleeding within 12 weeks before first dose of study treatment.
- Clinical signs or symptoms of gastrointestinal obstruction or requirement for routine parenteral hydration, parenteral nutrition, or tube feeding
- Evidence of abdominal free air not explained by paracentesis or recent surgical procedure
- Serious, non-healing or dehiscing wound, active ulcer, or untreated bone fracture
- Concomitant anticoagulation with coumarin agents, direct thrombin inhibitors, factor Xa inhibitor betrixaban, or platelet inhibitors. Other anticoagulants are allowed.

- For patients with HBV infection, clinically significant/exclusionary features include: HBV surface antigen positivity, detectable HBV DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Patients with prior HBV infection (HBV core Ab positive, HBV DNA undetectable by PCR, HBV surface antigen negative) are eligible for the study if they are already stable on entecavir or tenofovir

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Cabozantinib and Nivolumab With Radiation Therapy
Patients being newly initiated on cabo/nivo will be started on with cabozantinib 40 mg PO daily and nivolumab 240 mg IV Q2 weeks
Radiation will be stereotactic radiosurgery, delivered over 1-5 fractions with a total dose of 18-30Gy depending on fractionation schedule per the discretion of the treating radiation oncologist. Standard institutional regimens such as 18-24 Gy in a single fraction, 24-27 Gy in three fractions, and 25-30 Gy in five fractions are permissible. |
Cabozantinib (40 mg PO daily)
Nivolumab (240 mg IV Day 1 and Day 15)
Radiation will be stereotactic radiosurgery, delivered over 1-5 fractions with a total dose of 18-30Gy depending on fractionation schedule per the discretion of the treating radiation oncologist.
