Brief Title: Image Guided Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy, Nelfinavir Mesylate, Pembrolizumab, Nivolumab and Atezolizumab in Treating Patients With Advanced Melanoma, Lung, or Kidney Cancer
Official Title: ImmunoRad: Stratified Phase II Trial of Image Guided Hypofractionated Radiotherapy With Concurrent Nelfinavir and Immunotherapy in Advanced Melanoma, Lung Cancer, and Renal Cell Carcinoma
Study ID: NCT03050060
Brief Summary: This phase II trial studies how well image guided hypofractionated radiation therapy works with nelfinavir mesylate, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, and atezolizumab in treating patients with melanoma, lung cancer, or kidney cancer that has spread (advanced). Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Nelfinavir mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, nivolumab and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving hypofractionated radiation therapy, nelfinavir mesylate, pembrolizumab, nivolumab and atezolizumab may work better in treating patients with melanoma, lung, or kidney cancer.
Detailed Description: OUTLINE: Beginning 7-14 days prior to start of pembrolizumab, nivolumab, or atezolizumab, patients receive nelfinavir mesylate orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-7 or 1-14 (dependent upon when treatment is started) up to 11-12 weeks. Patients also receive pembrolizumab, nivolumab or atezolizumab intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on day 1. Cycles repeat every 21-28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then undergo hypofractionated radiation therapy over 3-14 days starting after cycle 1 and before cycle 3 of pembrolizumab, nivolumab or atezolizumab. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and then every 6 months for up to 2 years.
