          -  Male or female age ≥ 12 years at the time of informed consent

          -  Be capable, willing, and able to provide written informed consent/assent. For patients
             < 18 years of age, their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed
             consent. Assent, when appropriate, will be obtained according to institutional
             guidelines.

          -  Be willing to comply with clinical trial instructions and requirements.

          -  Patients ≥ 18 years must be willing to comply with the mandatory biopsies.

          -  Patients must have a histologically confirmed metastatic and/or locally advanced
             sarcoma by the enrolling institution.

          -  For histological specific cohorts, patients must have confirmed metastatic and/or
             locally advanced osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, undifferentiated pleomorphic
             sarcoma/malignant fibrous histiocytoma high grade myxofibrosarcoma (UPS/MFH/MFS),
             vascular sarcoma, alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS), dedifferentiated/pleomorphic
             liposarcoma, Small Blue Round CellSynovial, or leiomyosarcoma (LMS) by the enrolling
             institution.

        Note: Patients with confirmed sarcoma with histologies not defined by the above cohorts
        will be enrolled into the "Other" cohort.

          -  Adequate performance status:

               -  Participants ≥16 years ECOG 0 or 1/KPS 100-70%

               -  Participants <12-15 years Lanksky 100-70%

          -  Patients must have at least one prior line of systemic therapy (e.g.chemotherapy,
             immunotherapy, targeted or biological therapy) for their sarcoma if standard treatment
             is appropriate. Treatment naïve patients may be enrolled if they have refused standard
             systemic treatment. Prior adjuvant therapy will not count provided it was completed
             more than 6 months previously.

          -  Presence of measureable disease per RECIST v1.1.Target lesions must not be chosen from
             a previously irradiated field unless there has been radiographically and/or
             pathologically documented tumor progression in that lesion prior to enrollment.

          -  On echocardiogram, documented left ventricular ejection fraction >45%. Patients may
             instead have a multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan instead of transthoracic
             echocardiogram (TTE).

          -  Adequate organ function

          -  Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) † must have a negative urine or serum
             pregnancy test at screening and ≤ 72 hours prior to day 1 of study treatment. If the
             urine pregnancy test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy
             test will be required.

             † A woman of childbearing potential is a sexually mature female who: has not undergone
             a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or has not been naturally postmenopausal for
             at least 24 consecutive months (i.e. has had menses at any time in the preceding 24
             consecutive months).

          -  Male patients with WOCBP partners and female patients of childbearing potential must
             be willing to use an adequate method of contraception as outlined in Section 11.9, for
             the course of the study through 7 months (male participants) or 5 months (female
             participants) after the last dose of study medication.

        Note: Abstinence is acceptable if this is the usual lifestyle and preferred contraception
        for the patient.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:number of patients with a response
Time Frame:2 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Primary Response Criteria (RECIST 1.1) Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progressions). Stable Disease [1]: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters whi le on study.
