Aerosolized Azacytidine as Epigenetic Priming for Bintrafusp Alfa-Mediated Immune Checkpoint Blockade in Patients With Unresectable Pulmonary Metastases From Sarcomas, Germ Cell Tumors, or Epithelial Malignancies

Background: About one-third to one-half of all people dying of extrathoracic malignant diseases have cancer that has spread to the lungs. Surgery may help some people. But most people with pulmonary metastases do not survive long. Researchers want to see if a combination of drugs can help. Objective: To find a safe dose of Azacytidine, when taken as a fine mist that is inhaled (aerosolized Azacytidine), together with Bintrafusp Alfa to treat cancers that have spread to the lungs. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have cancer that has spread to the lungs, cannot be cured with surgery, and has not responded to standard treatments. Design: Participants will get Azacytidine by breathing treatments once a day for 3 days each week, for 3 weeks. The 3-week period is 1 cycle. Each course of treatment is 3 cycles. Once per cycle, participants will get Bintrafusp Alfa via IV. An IV is a small tube that is put into an arm vein. Participants will keep a diary of any side effects. Participants can take the study drugs for as long as they can continue treatment. Participants will have medical histories and physical exams. They will give blood, urine, and lung lining fluid samples. Tumor samples will be taken via bronchoscopy. They will have lung function tests. Participants will have an imaging scan that shows how spray particles move in their airway when they inhale. They will have tumor imaging scans of the chest and brain. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after they stop treatment....
