Patients must have completed one line of prior therapy in both cohorts. For participation in the Cohort A, they must have completed at least 4 cycles of platinum doublet therapy. For participation in Cohort B, they must have received PD-1, PD-L1 and/or CTLA-4 immunotherapy, alone or in combination with chemotherapy or in combination with other IO agents. Treatment on this protocol may begin as long as the patient has recovered from toxicities of prior therapy at the discretion of the treating physician. A washout period of at least 2 weeks is required prior to starting on this trial. 4. Patients with recurrent disease who had received adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy or chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced disease if their disease has progressed up to 6 months after completion of adjuvant or neoadjuvant platinum-based therapy, or if their disease has progressed more than 6 months after therapy and during or after a subsequent platinum-based chemotherapy regimen 5.

Patients on full-dose anticoagulation must be on a stable dose (minimum duration 14 days) of oral anticoagulant or low molecular weight heparin (LMWH). If receiving warfarin, the patient must have an INR ≤3.0. For heparin and LMWH there should be no active bleeding (that is, no bleeding within 14 days prior to first dose of protocol therapy) or pathological condition present that carries a high risk of bleeding (for example, tumor involving major vessels or known varices). 10. Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent and HIPAA consent document 11. A core tumor biopsy obtained after progression on the last treatment must be available at study entry for the study. The biopsy sample must not be more than 90 days old at the time of registration and the sample must be adequate for analyses. If the sample is not adequate patient must agree to provide a fresh biopsy specimen before the start of treatment. Any available archival tissue will also be collected. 12. The patient's urinary protein must be ≤1+ on dipstick or routine urinalysis (UA; if urine dipstick or routine analysis is ≥2+, a 24-hour urine collection for protein must demonstrate \<1000 mg of protein in 24 hours to allow participation in this protocol). 13. Female subject of childbearing potential should have a negative serum pregnancy within 72 hours prior to receiving the first dose of study medication. 14. Female subjects of childbearing potential and male subjects must be willing to use an effective method of contraception - Contraception, for the course of the study through 150 days after the last dose of study medication. 15. Male patients who have women of child bearing potential (WOCBP) partners must agree to use effective method of contraception - Contraception, for the course of the study through 210 days after the last dose of study medication. 16. Note: Abstinence is acceptable if this is the usual lifestyle and preferred contraception for the subject.	1. Patients who have not recovered from their most recent chemotherapy or radiotherapy prior to entering the study at the discretion of investigators. Patients may not be currently receiving any other investigational agents or immunomodulatory agents (e.g. ipilimumab). Patients treated with prior PD-1 or PD-L1 directed therapies are ineligible Cohort A. 2. Prior ramucirumab treatment 3. The patient has experienced any Grade 3-4 GI bleeding within 3 months prior to first dose of protocol therapy. 4. The patient has a history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), or any other significant thromboembolism (venous port or catheter thrombosis or superficial venous thrombosis are not considered "significant") during the 3 months prior to first dose of protocol therapy. 5. Cirrhosis at a level of Child-Pugh B (or worse) or cirrhosis (any degree) and a history of hepatic encephalopathy or clinically meaningful ascites resulting from cirrhosis. Clinically meaningful ascites is defined as ascites from cirrhosis requiring diuretics or paracentesis. 6. The patient has experienced any arterial thromboembolic events, including but not limited to myocardial infarction, transient ischemic attack, cerebrovascular accident, or unstable angina, within 6 months prior to first dose of protocol therapy. 7. The patient has uncontrolled or poorly-controlled hypertension (\>160 mmHg systolic or \> 100 mmHg diastolic for \>4 weeks) despite standard medical management. 8. The patient with history of hemoptysis (defined as bright red blood or ≥ 1/2 teaspoon) within 2 months prior to first dose of protocol therapy or with radiographic evidence of intra-tumor cavitation or has radiologically documented evidence of major blood vessel invasion or encasement by cancer. 9. The patient has a serious or non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture (as per physician's discretion) within 28 days prior to first dose of protocol therapy. 10. The patient has a prior history of GI perforation/fistula (within 6 months of first dose of protocol therapy) or risk factors for perforation. 11. The patient has undergone major surgery within 28 days prior to first dose of protocol therapy, or minor surgery/subcutaneous venous access device placement within 7 days prior to first dose of protocol therapy. The patient has elective or planned major surgery to be performed during the course of the clinical trial. 12. The patient is receiving chronic antiplatelet therapy other than aspirin, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, including ibuprofen, naproxen, and others), dipyridamole or clopidogrel, or similar agents. Once-daily aspirin use (maximum dose 325 mg/day) is permitted. Occasional use of NSAIDS is allowed (occasional use would constitute daily use for less than a week; treating physician discretion is permitted to differentiate between occasional Vs chronic use). 13. Patients who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered earlier except neuropathy and alopecia. Physician's discretion is allowed to decide which unresolved adverse events from previous therapy (for NSCLC) prohibit patient participation in this study. 14. Patients with active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 1 year (i.e. with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs). Hormone replacement therapy (eg. thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment. 15. Patients requiring more than 10mg prednisolone (or its equivalent) per day are excluded. 16. Patients with untreated symptomatic brain metastases are excluded. Patients with treated brain metastases will be allowed if brain imaging obtained within 28 days of trial enrollment reveals stable disease. Patients with small (\<5mm) asymptomatic brain metastasis are allowed to enroll. 17. Patients with interstitial lung disease or active, noninfectious pneumonitis.
