Active clinical trials for "Giant Cell Tumors"

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of the investigational drug PLX73086 in subjects with solid tumors including subjects with locally advanced or refractory tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT).

The objective of this study is to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics, maximum tolerated dose/recommended Phase 2 dose, and efficacy of PLX7486.

This study is a multi-center, multi-national, open label, single arm phase 2 study of single-agent denosumab. The objective of the trial is to evaluate the risk versus benefit of denosumab in maintenance setting in patients requiring long-term use (> 1 year) of denosumab. For that purpose, the treatment schedule with reduced dose density (120mg SC 12-weekly instead of 4-weekly) will be investigated, starting after 1-year (12-15 months) of denosumab full dose, as per current label. The impact on OsteoNecrosis of the Jaw (ONJ) without compromising disease control will be assessed.

The giant cell tumor (GTC) is an aggressive benign bone tumor, growing at the metaphyseal-epiphyseal regions of long bones, especially around the knee and the distal radius.It is responsible for bony destruction in para-articular zone fracture and leading to the breakdown and destruction of the underlying joint. Histologically, the tumor cell contains a contingent of monocytic cells round, a contingent of giant type cell of type osteoclastic responsible for bone resorption that accompanies these tumors and a contingent of lengthened cells fibroblast-like considered to be contingent tumor. The treatment is exclusively surgical; or by resection of the lesion which takes away tumour and its environment, solution which, if it prevents local recurrence, imposes an important bony and articular reconstruction, always limited and deteriorating rapidly over time in these young patients; or by curettage of lesion, by "hollowing-out" of the bone, creating a hole which it will be necessary to fill up by a bony grafting or a substitute of the bone (cement). This last solution, if it preserves a better function, exposes at risk of local recurrence,putting into play the prognosis of articulation near, most often the knee.Despite different local adjuvants treatments used during surgical operation, after having curetted the cavity and before filling it up, the recidivism rates vary from 12 % to 41 % (average 25 %) in literature. The beneficial effect of the adjuvants therapeutics suggests the concept broadly accepted by a tumoral microscopic residual at the origin of the local recidivism .Biphosphonates (BP) is molecules which settle in vivo on the hydroxyapatite of the bone; they inhibit the recruitment of the osteoclast forerunners and the activity of mature osteoclast. Besides, biphosphonates containing some nitrogen (N-BP), leads to the apoptose of mature osteoclast. These molecules also have a direct effect on tumor cells , causing apoptosis of neoplastic cells of myeloma, of breast cancer. Clinical controlled studies confirm the experimental data of N-BP. Two work also showed their effect on osteoclasts and stroma cells of tumours with giant cells but no clinical study assessed potential on the prevention of the local recurrence. The investigators offer a study phase 2 of the effectiveness of N-BP (acid zoledronique) on the prevention of the local recurrence of tumours with primary huge cells after surgical treatment by curettage - filing by a surgeon referent in oncologic orthopedic surgery. Number of patients: 24

This is a multicenter, randomised phase II trial in patients with high risk GCT. Primary objective: Determine if adjuvant zoledronic acid improves the 2 years recurrence rate of 'high risk' GCT as compared to standard care Secondary objectives: Determine the relapse free survival Evaluate the usefulness of bone remodelling markers in diagnosing and monitoring GCT

This is a phase 1/2 single arm, open-label, safety, tolerability, and PK study of cabiralizumab in PVNS/dt-TGCT patients.

This study is designed to evaluate the discontinuation/re-treatment of pexidartinib therapy in previously treated participants with tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT).

To determine how safe and effective denosumab is in treating patients with giant cell tumor of bone.

To determine how safe denosumab is in treating subjects with giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB)

This study, designed as a proof of concept study of MCS110 in pigmented villonodular synovitis, assessed the clinical response to MCS110 treatment in Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) patients, after a single or multiple intravenous doses of MCS110, using magnetic resonance imaging to assess tumor volume, and evaluated the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability in this population.
