Brief Summary: This study will investigate if modulating the tumor microenvironment with biologic agents like XL-092 will have synergistic effect when combined with checkpoint based immunotherapeutic treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Detailed Description: Zanzalintinib (XL-092) is a next generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with the target inhibition profile identical to cabozantinib but with a superior pharmacokinetic profile. As cabozantinib targets multiple tyrosine kinases, including vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), MET proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase (MET), and AXL receptor tyrosine kinase (AXL), and has been reported to show immunomodulatory properties that may counteract tumor-induced immunosuppression, XL-092 is expected to have similar immune modulatory activity, providing a rationale for combining it with PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors. This study asserts the belief that modulating the tumor microenvironment with biologic agents like XL-092 will have synergistic effect when combined with checkpoint based immunotherapeutics like durvalumab and tremelimumab in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). There will be a Safety lead-in to define the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) that will enroll 6-12 patients.
