This is a Phase I study to determine the optimal biological dose (OBD) of 5-Azacitidine in combination with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in patients with tumors refractory to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, for which such treatments have been approved.
This is a Phase I study to determine the optimal biological dose (OBD) of 5-Azacitidine in combination with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in patients with tumors refractory to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, for which such treatments have been approved. This Phase I study will assess 6 doses of 5-Azacitidine (5, 10, 15, 25, 50 and 75 mg/m2) in combination with a PD1/PD-L1 inhibitor. The PD1/PD-L1 inhibitor will be given at standard of care dosing approved by the FDA for this indication.

Time frame: Treatment initiation through 30 days +/- 7 days post completion of therapy
Proportion of participants with a complete response (CR)

Time frame: Treatment initiation through five years
Proportion of participants with a partial response (PR)
At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD
Time frame: Treatment initiation through five years
Overall Survival (OS)
Time from study treatment initiation to death due to any cause
Time frame: Treatment initiation through five years
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time from study treatment initiation to disease progression or death due to any cause
Time frame: Treatment initiation through five years
