Brief Summary
This phase II trial studies how well paclitaxel with and without nivolumab works in treating patients with soft tissue sarcoma that have not received taxane drugs, and how well nivolumab and cabozantinib work in treating taxane pretreated patients with soft tissue sarcoma. Nivolumab works through the body's immune system to help the immune system act against tumor cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This trial is being done to see if the combination of nivolumab and paclitaxel or cabozantinib can shrink soft tissue sarcoma and possibly prevent it from coming back.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Progression Free Survival (PFS) in Taxane Naive Patients With Angiosarcoma
Will compare the PFS in taxane naive angiosarcoma patients receiving either (1) paclitaxel + nivolumab compared to (2) paclitaxel alone. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions compared to the nadir (smallest) sum of target lesions, any new lesions, or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
21 months
Overall Response Rate (ORR) in Angiosarcoma Patients Who Have Had Prior Taxane
ORR defined as count of participants that reported a confirmed best response of partial response (PR) or complete response (CR). Evaluation of disease response determination will be defined based on RECIST 1.1. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Each target lymph node must have reduction in short axis to \<1.0 cm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.
1.5 years
Secondary Outcomes (5)
ORR in the Nivolumab + Paclitaxel
Up to 3 years
Overall Survival in Each of the 2 Combination Arms
From study enrollment until death due to any cause, assessed up to 3 years
PFS Rate
At 6 months
Incidence of Adverse Events
Up to 3 years
Patient-reported Outcomes (PRO)
Up to 3 years
Study Arms (3)
Arm I (nivolumab, paclitaxel)
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive nivolumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1 and paclitaxel IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, and 15. Cycles repeat every 4 weeks for up to 2 years (24 months) for patients who achieve CR, PR or SD on immunotherapy/nivolumab, or in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo collection of blood at baseline and on study, CT scan, spiral CT, or MRI, or FDG-PET scan throughout the trial.
Arm II (paclitaxel)
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive paclitaxel IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, and 15. Cycles repeat every 4 weeks for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo collection of blood at baseline and on study, CT scan, spiral CT, or MRI, or FDG-PET scan throughout the trial.
Arm III (nivolumab, cabozantinib S-malate)
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive nivolumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1 and cabozantinib S-malate PO daily. Cycles repeat every 4 weeks for up to 2 years (24 months) for patients who achieve CR, PR or SD on immunotherapy/nivolumab, or in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo collection of blood at baseline and on study, CT scan, spiral CT, or MRI, or FDG-PET scan throughout the trial.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically confirmed cutaneous or visceral angiosarcoma, where curative treatment is either not possible or curative modality therapy is declined by the subject. Note: If a subject declines curative modality therapy, the reason must be documented (e.g. excessive morbidity to necessary surgery)
- Note: Radiation induced angiosarcomas are permitted
- All local diagnostic slides AND 5 x 4-6 micron unstained slides from diagnostic tumor tissue should be available for retrospective central pathology review
- Must have measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. Per RECIST v1.1, clinical lesions will only be considered measurable when they are superficial and \>= 10 mm diameter as assessed using calipers or ruler (e.g. skin nodules). For the case of skin lesions, documentation by color photography including a ruler to estimate the size of the lesion is required. When lesions can be evaluated by both clinical exam and imagining, imaging evaluation should be undertaken since it is more objective and may also be reviewed at the end of the study. The same method of measurement should be used throughout the study, preferably performed by the same investigator. Areas previously radiated must have demonstrated disease progression at some point over the past 6 months and growth must be subsequent to the last line of anti-cancer directed therapy (e.g. chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery)
- Not pregnant and not nursing, because this study involves an investigational agent whose genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects on the developing fetus and newborn are unknown
- Therefore, for women of childbearing potential only, a negative pregnancy test done =\< 3 days prior to registration is required
- Age \>= 18 years
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1
- Prior Treatment
- Patient must have completed all prior cancer directed therapies (including investigational) \>= 7 days prior to cycle 1 day 1
- Exception: prostate patients who are allowed to concurrently receive androgen suppression therapy
- Note: Radiation therapy must be completed \>= 7 days of day 1 of study treatment, and must not be expected to significantly impact blood count recovery
- There is no limit to overall number of prior lines of therapy
- No prior PD-1 inhibitor or PD-L1 inhibitor therapy is permitted
- No prior administration of VEGF TKI therapy is permitted
- +75 more criteria
