targeted therapy, and prior radiotherapy are allowed; no maximum number of previous
lines of chemotherapies; concomitant chemo-radiation is not considered as previous
line of systemic chemotherapy
- Availability of archival tissue for correlative analysis

use of cabozantinib and nivolumab in patients < 18 years of age, children are excluded
from this study, but will be eligible for future pediatric trials

[SGOT])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase [SGPT])
=< 3 x institutional upper limit of normal

women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy
test at screening; WOCBP must agree to use adequate contraception (barrier method of
birth control or abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study
participation; WOCBP should use an adequate method to avoid pregnancy for 7 months
after the last dose of investigational drug; women must not be breastfeeding; women of
childbearing potential (WOCBP) is defined as any female who has experienced menarche
and who has not undergone surgical sterilization (hysterectomy or bilateral
oophorectomy) or who is not postmenopausal; menopause is defined clinically as 12
months of amenorrhea in a woman over age 45 in the absence of other biological or
physiological causes; in addition, women under the age of 55 must have a documented
serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level less than 40 mIU/mL; should a woman
become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she is participating in this study,
she should inform her treating physician immediately
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
- CROSS-OVER ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
- Patient must provide a tumor biopsy at the time of progression on Arm B; if a patient
does not have a tumor lesion amenable to biopsy or it has been unsafe for a biopsy to
be performed, cross-over will not be allowed
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who have had chemotherapy (including investigational cytotoxic chemotherapy),
biologic agents (e.g. targeted therapy or antibodies) or radiotherapy within 4 weeks
prior to the first dose of study treatment
- Patients who have not recovered from adverse events attributed to prior anti-cancer
therapy (i.e. have residual toxicities > grade 1, except for alopecia, neuropathy,
lymphocytopenia and other non-clinically significant adverse events)
- Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents
- Patients should be excluded if they have had prior treatment with anti-CTLA-4 antibody
or any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T-cell co-stimulation; previous
treatment with anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1 or anti-PD-L2 is allowed and patients will be
enrolled in the exploratory cohort (arm C) at the time of progression from last line
of treatment (treatment with immune check point inhibitor does not have to necessary
be the last line of treatment)
- Patients should be excluded if they have had prior treatment with cabozantinib;
previous use of other antiangiogenic agents other than cabozantinib is allowed
- Any other active malignancy other than the endometrial cancer, that is progressing or
requiring active treatment with the exception of basal or squamous cell skin cancer,
superficial bladder cancer, carcinoma in situ of any site
- Patients with known brain metastases should be excluded from this clinical trial
because of their poor prognosis and because of the possible increased risk of bleeding
if treatment with antiangiogenic agents is provided; patients with history of brain
metastases can enroll provided the brain metastases were removed and controlled with
no radiological evidence within the past 6 months
- Patients requiring concomitant treatment, in therapeutic doses, with anticoagulants
such as warfarin or warfarin-related agents, heparin, thrombin or factor Xa
inhibitors, antiplatelet agents (e.g. clopidogrel) or new oral anticoagulants;
low-dose aspirin (=< 81 mg/day), and prophylactic low molecular weight heparin (LMWH)
are permitted
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic
composition to cabozantinib or nivolumab
- Patients require chronic concomitant treatment of strong CYP450 3A4 inducers (e.g.
dexamethasone, phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampicin, rifabutin, rifapentine,
phenobarbital, St. John's wort) or inhibitors (e.g. ketoconazole, miconazole,
itraconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, clarithromycin, telithromycin, indinavir,
saquinavir, ritonavir, nelfinavir, amprenavir, fosamprenavir nefazodone, lopinavir,
troleandomycin, mibefradil and conivaptan); because the lists of these agents are
constantly changing, it is important to regularly consult a frequently-updated list,
medical reference texts such as the Physicians' Desk Reference may also provide this
information; as part of the enrollment/informed consent procedures, the patient will
be counseled on the risk of interactions with other agents, and what to do if new
medications need to be prescribed or if the patient is considering a new
over-the-counter medicine or herbal product
- The subject has experienced any of the following:

cabozantinib if there were wound complications
- Minor surgery within 1 month of the first dose of cabozantinib if there were
no wound healing complications or within 3 months of the first dose of
cabozantinib if there were wound complications
- In addition, complete wound healing from prior surgery must be confirmed at least

- Psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study
requirements
- The subject has a corrected QT interval calculated by the Fridericia formula (QTcF) >
500 ms within 28 days before randomization; Note: if initial QTcF is found to be > 500
ms, two additional electrocardiogram (EKG)s separated by at least 3 minutes should be
performed; if the average of these three consecutive results for QTcF is =< 500 ms,
the subject meets eligibility in this regard
- Patient is not able to swallow pills
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because XL184 and nivolumab are agents
with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects; because there is an
unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to
treatment of the mother with XL184 and nivolumab, breastfeeding should be discontinued
if the mother is treated with XL184 and nivolumab
