Brief Summary
This is a randomized open label study, with 2 arms treatments conducted in patients with metastatic or unresectable advanced sarcoma of rare subtype; previously treated by anthracycline-based regimen except for whom standard therapy does not exist or is not considered appropriate by the Investigator. In the experimental arm, patients will receive the combination of Nivolumab + Ipilimumab for a maximum of 24 months, whereas in the control arm, patients will receive Pazopanib alone. The purpose of the study is to know if the combination of nivolumab + ipilimumab can be more efficient than Pazopanib in terms of Progression-Free Survival.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
The Progression-Free Survival defined as the time from the date of randomisation to the date of first documented progression or death due to any cause. Patients who have not progressed or died at the time of analysis will be censored at the time of the latest date of assessment.
up to 36 months
Secondary Outcomes (7)
Best Overall Response (BOR)
up to 36 months
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
up to 36 months
Duration of Response (DOR)
up to 36 months
Time to Treatment Failure (TTF)
up to 36 months
Overall Survival (OS)
up to 36 months

Study Arms (2)
Arm A
EXPERIMENTALArm A (Experimental arm). * Nivolumab 3 mg/kg * Ipilimumab 1 mg/kg
Arm B
ACTIVE COMPARATORArm B (Control arm). Pazopanib 800 mg/day
Interventions
The combination of Nivolumab+Ipilimumab will be given to patients as follows: * Nivolumab: 3 mg/kg IV over 30 minutes every 2 weeks for 4 cycles. * Ipilimumab 1 mg/kg IV over 60 minutes every 6 weeks for 4 cycles. After completion of 4 courses with ipilimumab, patients continue receiving nivolumab IV at the dose of 480 mg Q4W in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity for a maximum of 18 months. Nota Bene: A cycle is defined as a 6-weeks period. The planned treatment period is 24 months Nivolumab and Ipilimumab must be injected the same day every 6 weeks (Q6W). In case of toxicity, dose will be delayed, but will not be reduced.
Treatment by pazopanib 800 mg/day per os, continuously during a maximum 24 months. In case of toxicity, dose will be delayed and reduced.
