Active clinical trials for "Sarcoma, Ewing"

Controlled, randomized phase III study, with the intent of optimizing the treatment of not metastatic Ewing Sarcoma. The patients will be randomized into 2 arms: standard treatment vs intensive treatment. Both arms will receive an induction treatment followed by surgery (wherever is possible) and/or radiotherapy. The maintenance treatment will be different on the basis of the response to the induction treatment (good or poor)

The purpose of this study is to determine the safest and most effective oral dose combinations of sorafenib and irinotecan in pediatric patients with solid tumors, i.e. relapsed or refractory.

This research study is a Phase II clinical trial to test the efficacy of Olaparib in adult participants with recurrent/metastatic Ewing's Sarcoma following failure of prior chemotherapy.

Primary Objectives: To determine the feasibility and toxicity profile of administering liposomal 9-Nitro-20-(S)-Camptothecin (L9-NC) by aerosol alone and in combination with temozolomide. To determine the effectiveness of L9-NC given by aerosol in combination with temozolomide in patients with solid tumors involving the lungs.

Define the efficacy of CP-751,871 in patients with Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors

Single-arm, open-label study of AMG 479 in up to 35 subjects with Ewing's Family Tumors (EFTs) and Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumors (DSRCTs) who have progressed or recurred after at least one prior chemotherapy regimen. An exploratory cohort of an additional up to 10 subjects with prior exposure to anti-IGF-1R therapy and who have progressed or recurred after at least one prior chemotherapy regimen will also be assessed.

This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well cixutumumab works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of exatecan mesylate in treating patients who have relapsed or refractory Ewing's sarcoma or peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumor or desmoplastic small round cell tumor.

This protocol is designed to test the feasibility of the administration of vincristine, adriamycin and cytoxan, alternating with the newly developed regimen ifosfamide VP-16 as well as the efficacy of this therapy in addition to radiotherapy in producing complete responses and disease-free survival in patients with Ewing's sarcoma, primitive sarcoma of bone, peripheral neuroepithelioma, and soft tissue sarcoma. This will not be a randomized study but will be comparable to the large data base of similar patients treated on successive Pediatric Branch studies.

Arm A: Peripheral blood apheresis by harvesting chemotherapy-naive T cells and populations enriched for professional APCs. T cells and APCs are separated from the apheresis product using countercurrent centrifugal elutriation and a monocyte rich fraction is collected. Autologous T cell transplantation during immunotherapy. Arm B: Cell harvesting is performed as soon as possible. Both Arm A and B: Patients receive intravenous infusion of irradiated peptide-pulsed antigen presenting cell vaccination (APC) products as well as intramuscular injection of influenza vaccine on the same day. Recombinant human IL-2 is administered within 4 hours of the peptide pulsed vaccine by continuous intravenous infusion for 4 days per week for 3 successive weeks. Primary toxic effect of this therapy is expected to be related to the IL-2 therapy. Patients with Grade 2 neurologic or cardiac or any Grade 3 or 4 toxic effects will discontinued IL-2 therapy. If toxic effect is not resolved in 72-hours, the patient may remain on study but will not receive any further IL-2.
