11520 Background: Sarcoma cells are most immunogenic earlier in the disease. Hypothesis: Immune checkpoint inhibitors would be most effective when given as first-line therapy. Methods: Eligible patients include previously untreated male or female patients, ≥ 18 years of age with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma (STS), with measurable disease by RECIST v1.1. Immune checkpoint inhibitors I (1 mg/kg i.v. q 12 weeks) and N (3 mg/kg i.v. q 2 weeks) were given with T (1.2 mg/m2 i.v. q 3 weeks), a tumoricidal agent that depletes growth-promoting macrophages in the tumor microenvironment. Primary endpoint: Objective response rate by RECIST v1.1; Secondary endpoints: (1) Progression-free survival (PFS) at 6 months, (2) Overall survival (OS) at 6, 9, 12, 24, and 48 months, and (3) Incidence of adverse events. Results: Efficacy analysis: There were forty-one evaluable subjects. Best overall response rate was 19.5%; disease control rate 87.8%. The median OS was >12.5 months; median PFS was >6.0 months (6-month OS rate: 75%; 6-month PFS rate: 50%). Safety analysis: Grade 3 TRAEs include fatigue (n = 5), increased TSH (n = 3), decreased TSH (n = 1), adrenal insufficiency (n = 1), hyperglycemia (n = 1), dehydration (n = 1), hyponatremia (n = 2), bipedal edema (n = 2), increased AST (n = 8), increased ALT (n = 19), increased ALP (n = 2), increased CPK (n = 3), port site infection (n = 2), psoriasis exacerbation (n = 1), anemia (n = 6), thrombocytopenia (n = 2), and neutropenia (n = 2). Grade 4 TRAES include neutropenia (n = 1), thrombocytopenia (n = 2), and increased CPK (n = 2). Conclusions: These data suggest that combinatorial therapy with Ipilimumab, Nivolumab and Trabectedin (1) may have synergistic activity in achieving disease control, and (2) is safe with manageable toxicity for patients with previously untreated STS.
