Summary
This pilot phase I clinical trial studies the side effects and best dose of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist glucopyranosyl lipid A (GLA)-stable-emulsion (SE) when given together with radiation therapy in treating patients with soft tissue sarcoma that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). TLR4 agonist GLA-SE may stimulate the immune system to kill sarcoma cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy x rays to kill tumor cells. Giving TLR4 agonist GLA-SE with radiation therapy may be a better treatment to treat sarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery.
