Safety and Efficacy of Cyclophosphamide, Sorafenib, Bevacizumab, and Atezolizumab in Pediatric Solid Tumor Patients

Summary

This is a phase I/II study to evaluate the safety of combining intravenous (IV) atezolizumab and bevacizumab every three weeks, with daily oral cyclophosphamide and pharmacokinetic (PK)-guided sorafenib in children and adolescent and young adults (AYA) with relapsed or refractory solid malignancies (Part 1), and then evaluate the response rate of this combination in children, AYA with relapsed or refractory fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC) and other rare solid malignancies (Part 2). Primary Objectives Part 1 * To establish the safety associated with the administration of the combination of cyclophosphamide, PK-guided sorafenib, bevacizumab and atezolizumab in children and AYA with relapsed or refractory solid tumors * To determine if sorafenib systemic exposure can be successfully targeted to an AUC between 20 and 55 hr·µg/mL by Day 21 of cycle 1 in 60% of evaluable patients, when given in combination with cyclophosphamide, bevacizumab, and atezolizumab in children and AYA with relapsed or refractory solid tumors Part 2 * To evaluate the response rate (CR+PR) of the combination of cyclophosphamide, PK-guided sorafenib, bevacizumab and atezolizumab in children and AYA with relapsed or refractory FLC following two cycles of therapy * To determine if the use of PK-guided sorafenib dosing to maintain a systemic exposure between 20 and 55 reduces the interpatient pharmacokinetic variability of sorafenib and the incidence of sorafenib- induced skin toxicities in children and AYA with relapsed or refractory FLC and other rare solid tumors Parts 1 \& 2 * To determine if the combination of cyclophosphamide, PK-guided sorafenib and atezolizumab will result in increased intratumoral T-cell infiltration of CD8+C45RO+ cells between baseline and following two courses of therapy in pediatric children and AYA with relapsed or refractory solid tumors following two cycles of therapy * To characterize the pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab in combination with cyclophosphamide, PK-guided sorafenib and bevacizumab in children and AYA with relapsed or refractory solid tumors * To assess the feasibility of performing contrast enhanced ultrasound and explore the correlation between quantitative CEUS parameters and clinical response. Secondary Objectives Part 1 • To describe the response rate (CR+PR) of the combination of cyclophosphamide, PK-guided sorafenib, bevacizumab and atezolizumab in children and AYA with relapsed or refractory solid tumors following two cycles of therapy Part 2 • To describe the response rate (CR+PR) of the combination of cyclophosphamide, PK-guided sorafenib, bevacizumab and atezolizumab in children and AYA with relapsed or refractory FLC, HCC, desmoplastic small round cell tumor, malignant rhabdoid tumor, and other rare solid tumors following two cycles of therapy Parts 1\&2 * To describe the number of children with liver tumors, initially judged unresectable at diagnosis, that can have their primary tumor resected after treatment with oral cyclophosphamide and sorafenib with intravenous bevacizumab and atezolizumab * To describe changes in immune cells in the peripheral blood at periodic times before and after treatment with this combination chemoimmunotherapy * To describe the PFS, EFS, and OS in patients treated with the combination of cyclophosphamide, PK-guided sorafenib, bevacizumab, and atezolizumab in patients with relapsed or refractory FLC, DSRCT, MRT, HCC and other rare solid tumors

Note: Patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score.
* Disease status: Patients must tumors that are unresectable and have either measurable or evaluable disease that is accessible by biopsy
* Organ function: Must have adequate organ and bone marrow function as defined by the following parameters:
* Patients with solid tumor not metastatic to bone marrow:

  * Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>1,000/mm3
  * Platelet count \> 75,000/mm3 (no transfusion within 7 days of enrollment)
  * Hemoglobin \> 8 g/dL (with or without support)
* Patients with solid tumor metastatic to bone marrow will be eligible for study but not evaluable for hematologic toxicity. These patients must not be known to be refractory to red cell or platelet transfusions. At least 2 of every cohort of 3 patients must be evaluable for hematologic toxicity. If dose limiting hematologic toxicity is observed at any dose level, all subsequent patients enrolled must be evaluable for hematologic toxicity.

* Adequate cardiac function defined as shortening fraction \> 28% OR ejection fraction of ≥ 47% by echocardiogram.
* Adequate blood clotting defined as PT/PTT \< 1.2 x ULN without factor replacement products for 7 days
* Females of childbearing potential and males able to father a child must be willing to practice acceptable methods of birth control to prevent pregnancy during the study and for at least 5 months after last dose of therapy.
* Patients must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, surgery, or radiotherapy prior to entering this study:
