Surufatinib and Envafolimab as Second or More-line Therapy in Advanced Soft Tissue Sarcoma Patients

Prior treatment

• Occurrence of arterial/venous thrombotic events within 6 months before treatment, such as cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack, hematencephalon and cerebral infarction), deep vein thrombosis , pulmonary embolism, etc.
• With factors affecting oral drug administration: dysphagia, post-gastrointestinal resection, chronic diarrhea and intestinal obstruction, etc
• Patients who are receiving systemic steroid treatment within 3 days before the first dose of trial drugs or any other form of immunosuppressive drugs. Notes: a. Corticosteroids can be used to deal with adverse reactions (AEs) and serious adverse reactions (SAEs) after period 1, and can also be used as a pre-medication for the control chemotherapy group, as a preventive drug for the allergy/reaction of intravenous contrast enhanced radiography, or if it is considered necessary for the subject to use. b. Except for the subjects who are receiving steroid replacement therapy every day. A daily dose of 5-7.5 mg of prednisone is an alternative treatment. c. Equivalent dose of hydrocortisone treatment can also be allowed to enter the trial if it is an alternative treatment.
• Anticancer treatment within 4 weeks before the research, including but not limited to: chemotherapy, radical radiotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, antitumor traditional Chinese medicine/ Chinese patent medicine, transcatheter arterial chemoembolization, Cryoablation or radiofrequency ablation of liver metastases;
• History of receiving anti-angiogenic drugs such as surufatinib, bevacizumab, ramucirumab, aflibercept, anlotinib, apatinib, lenvatinib, sorafenib, sunitinib, regorafenib, fruquintinib, endostatin, etc.
• History of receiving anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1 or anti-PD-L2 drugs or drugs directly acting on another stimulatory or co-inhibitory T cell receptor (such as CTLA-4, OX-40, CD137, LAG3);
• Have major surgery, severe traumatic injuries, fracture or ulcer within 4 weeks before treatment;
• Participate in other clinical trials at present or within four weeks before enrollment;

Other illness

• Patients whose tumors are judged by the investigators to be at high risk of invading vital blood vessels and causing fatal hemorrhage during the study.
• Occurrence of clinically significant hemoptysis(\>5ml fresh blood in 4 weeks), hemorrhagic tendency(bleeding\>30ml within 3 months), such as gastrointestinal bleeding, hemorrhagic gastric ulcer, fecal occult blood test(FOBT) ++ in the baseline period , or vasculitis, etc;
• Hypertension that cannot be controlled stably by drugs, which is defined as: systolic blood pressure\>140mmHg or diastolic blood pressure\>90mmHg;
• With any active, known or suspected autoimmune disease (subjects who are in stable status and do not need systemic immunosuppressant are allowed to be enrolled, such as subjects with type 1 diabetes, hypothyroidism requiring hormone replacement therapy only, skin diseases (leucoderma, psoriasis or alopecia) without the need for systemic treatment or subjects whose situation is not expected to reappear without extrinsic incentive);
• With any clinically significant active infection, including but not limited to: active tuberculosis, infection of Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV);
• HBV DNA of patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection must be \<100 IU/mL, and antiviral treatment should be carried out at the same time;
• Previous malignant disease within the last 5 years with the exception of post radical resection of basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or cervical carcinoma in situ;
• History of allergy to any component of surufatinib and envafolimab;

Lab values

• With clinically significant cardiovascular diseases, including but not limited to: acute myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina pectoris or coronary artery bypass grafting within 6 months before enrollment; congestive heart failure with New York Heart Association (NYHA) grade≥2; cardiac revascularization, hemodynamic unstable arrhythmia; Left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) \<50%
• QTc interval ≥ 480 milliseconds (ms) on electrocardiogram (ECG);
• Serum potassium, calcium (after correction for ionic or albumin-bound type) or magnesium are beyond the normal range and have clinical significance.
• Abnormal coagulation function (INR\>1.5 or PT\>ULN+4s or APTT \>1.5 ULN), hemorrhagic tendency or being treated with thrombolysis or anticoagulation therapy. Notes: on the premise of INR ≤ 1.5, it is allowed to use low-dose heparin (daily dosage of adults is 6000-12000U) or low-dose aspirin (daily dosage ≤ 100mg) for preventive purposes;
• According to the judgment of the researchers, the subject has other factors that may lead to the forced termination of the study, such as other severe diseases (including mental diseases) which need to be treated together, severe laboratory abnormalities , family or social factors.

Other

• 24-h urinary protein level \>1.0g/day;
• Presence of known active central nervous system metastasis and/or cancerous meningitis;
• Accination with live or live/attenuated viruses within 4 weeks of the first dose of surufatinib/ envafolimab and while on trial is prohibited;
• Pregnant or lactating women;

• Male or female subjects aged from 18 to 75 years old;
• Subjects with histologically confirmed unresectable locally advanced or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma, which includes synoviosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma/malignant fibrous histiocytoma, fibrosarcoma, epithelioid sarcoma, angiosarcoma, alveolar soft-part sarcoma, etc. Chondrosarcoma, osteosarcoma, dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, gastrointestinal stromal tumor and malignant mesothelioma are excluded;
• Patients who have at least failed first-line treatment and had a disease progression within 6 months or can not tolerate the treatment. Notes: if the cumulative dose of anthracycline drugs reach threshold according to the guideline of Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology(CSCO) published in 2020, it will be regarded as intolerable;
