Active clinical trials for "Leiomyosarcoma"

This is a two center, 2 arm, Phase II study evaluating the combination of Ribociclib and Everolimus in patients with advanced DDL and LMS who have had at least 1 prior systemic therapy. Patients will be enrolled by sarcoma histology into DDL (Arm A) and LMS (Arm B). The purpose of this study is to determine the anti-tumor activity of this doublet therapy in these patient cohorts. Ribociclib will be administered orally at 300 mg/day 3 weeks on/1 week off. Everolimus will be administered 2.5 mg orally on a continuous 28 day cycle. Clinical and laboratory assessments will be made on day 1, d15 of cycle 1 and 2, and day 1 of each subsequent cycle. Tumor response will be assessed by RECIST 1.1 at (CT or MRI) at week 8, 16, 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter. Study drug administration will continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent. Patients will be followed until death or are lost to follow-up for analysis of secondary endpoints. There will be a 1 step registration process for dedifferentiated liposarcoma patients while patients with leiomyosarcoma will require a 2 step registration process. For step 1 of registration, patients must meet all the eligibility criteria necessary for step 1. For step 2 registration, patients must meet the inclusion criteria necessary for step 2 to be enrolled into the study.

This phase II trial studies olaparib and temozolomide in treating patients with uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced), that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). PARPs are proteins that help repair DNA mutations. PARP inhibitors, such as olaparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing. Chemotherapy drugs, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving olaparib and temozolomide may work better than giving either drug alone in treating patients with LMS.

This research study is studying a combination of drugs (chemotherapy + Immunotherapy) as a possible treatment for liposarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, or undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma that has spread and has not responded to standard treatment.

THIS STUDY IS CURRENTLY RECRUITING PATIENTS WITH ALVEOLAR SOFT PART SARCOMA ONLY AND IS NO LONGER RECRUITING PATIENTS WITH SYNOVIAL SARCOMA OR LEIOMYOSARCOMA. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of AL3818 (anlotinib) hydrochloride in the treatment of metastatic or advanced alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS), leiomyosarcoma (LMS), and synovial sarcoma (SS). All participants with ASPS will receive open-label AL3818. In participants with LMS or SS, AL3818 will be compared to IV dacarbazine. Two-thirds of the participants will receive AL3818, one-third of the participants will receive IV dacarbazine.

This phase II trial studies how well cabozantinib and temozolomide work in treating patients with leiomyosarcoma or other soft tissue sarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving cabozantinib and temozolomide may work better than either one alone in treating patients with leiomyosarcoma or other soft tissue sarcoma. Cabozantinib is an investigational drug, which means that it has not been approved by the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or any other regulatory agencies for sale or use by the public for the indication under investigation in this study.

This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well pazopanib, when combined with chemotherapy and radiation therapy or radiation therapy alone, work in the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas that can eventually be removed by surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ifosfamide and doxorubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Pazopanib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether these therapies can be safely combined and if they work better when given together in treating patients with non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of nivolumab and find out what affects, if any, nivolumab has on people and their risk of gynecologic cancer. The investigators also want to find out what effects, good or bad, nivolumab has on the patient and their cancer.

This is a phase 2, single-centre, randomized, multi-cohort trial of subjects with advanced Mismatch Repair Proficient Colorectal Cancer (MMRp-CRC), Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma (PA), and Leiomyosarcoma (LMS). Subjects will be stratified based on their primary malignancy and enrolled into one of the following cohorts: Cohort A: olaparib and durvalumab. Cohort B: cediranib and durvalumab. Subjects will receive durvalumab through an intravenous line every 4 weeks. If subjects are assigned to the olaparib group, then they will take this pill twice a day continuously. If subjects are assigned to the cediranib group, then they will take this pill once a day for 5 consecutive days, and then have 2 consecutive days off, every week. Subjects will be enrolled in this trial to evaluate the changes in genomic and immune biomarkers in tumor, peripheral blood and stool samples, in addition to changes in radiomic profiles. About 90 people (45 subjects in each cohort) will be enrolled into this study at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called Ontorpacept or TTI-621) when given alone and when given in combination with doxorubicin for people with leiomyosarcoma. Leiomyosarcoma is a tumor of the smooth muscles. This study is seeking participants who have: leiomyosarcoma that is advanced or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) not received prior treatment with anthracyclines (a drug commonly used in patients with some kinds of cancer, including leiomyosarcoma) not received more than one prior treatment for their leiomyosarcoma During the first 18 weeks of this study, participants will receive doxorubicin by IV infusion (given directly into a vein) at the study clinic every 3 weeks for a total of 6 doses. Participants will also receive Ontorpacept (TTI-621) by IV infusion at the study clinic on the same day as doxorubicin and again one week later for the first 18 weeks. After the first 18 weeks, participants will stop receiving doxorubicin but will continue receiving Ontorpacept (TTI-621) as IV infusion every 14 days at the study clinic. They will keep receiving Ontorpacept (TTI-621) until their cancer is no longer responding to treatment. We will examine the experiences of participants receiving Ontorpacept (TTI-621) in combination with doxorubicin in the first 18 weeks and then Ontorpacept (TTI-621) by itself after the doxorubicin is stopped. This will help us determine if the study medicine Ontorpacept (TTI-621) given with doxorubicin and then by itself is safe and effective. Participants will be involved in the study for approximately one year, depending on how their cancer responds to the study treatment. They will have study visits about 12 times in the first 18 weeks (when the study medicine Ontorpacept is given with doxorubicin) and then every two weeks after the doxorubicin is stopped and the study medicine Ontorpacept (TTI-621) is given by itself.

In this study, investigators are trying to see if LMP specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) will prevent or treat disease called Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) Disorder including either Hodgkin Lymphoma or non-Hodgkin Lymphoma or Lymphoepithelioma or severe chronic active EBV infection syndrome (SCAEBV) or Leiomyosarcoma which has come back or has not gone away after treatment, including the best treatment. Investigators are using special immune system cells called third party LMP specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), a new experimental therapy. Some patients with Lymphoma or SCAEBV or Leiomyosarcoma show evidence of infection with the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis Epstein Barr virus (EBV) before or at the time of their diagnosis. EBV is found in the cancer cells of up to half the patients with Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, suggesting that it may play a role in causing Lymphoma. The cancer cells (in lymphoma) and some B cells (in SCAEBV) infected by EBV are able to hide from the body's immune system and escape destruction. The investigators want to see if special white blood cells, called T cells, that have been trained to kill EBV infected cells can survive in patient's blood and affect the tumor or infection. Investigators used this sort of therapy to treat a different type of cancer that occurs after bone marrow or solid organ transplant called post transplant lymphoma. In this type of cancer the tumor cells have 9 proteins made by EBV on their surface. They grew T cells in the laboratory that recognized all 9 proteins and were able to successfully prevent and treat post transplant lymphoma. However in Hodgkin Lymphoma, the tumor cells and B cells only express 2 EBV proteins. In a previous study they made T cells that recognized all 9 proteins and gave them to patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma. Some patients had a partial response to this therapy but no patients had a complete response. They think one reason may be that many of the T cells reacted with proteins that were not on the tumor cells. In this present study the investigators are trying to find out if the investigators can improve this treatment by growing T cells that recognize proteins expressed on EBV infected Lymphoma cells and B cells called LMP-1 and LMP2. These special T cells are called third party LMP 1/2 -specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs). These LMP-specific cytotoxic T cells are an investigational product not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
