Active clinical trials for "Sarcoma"

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of ribociclib when giving together with doxorubicin hydrochloride in treating patients with soft tissue sarcomas that has spread to other places or that cannot be removed by surgery (advanced). Ribociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, 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 ribociclib and doxorubicin hydrochloride may work better in treating patients with soft tissue sarcoma.

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy given before surgery of soft tissue sarcoma decreases the size of the tumor mass and the presence of malignant cells in its peripheral region. NBTXR3 and radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells and increase the tumor shrinkage rendering surgery more feasible or easier and achieve better local control of the tumor. PURPOSE: This phase II/III is a prospective randomized, multi-center, open-label and active controlled two arms study in patients with locally advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the extremity and trunk wall. Patients will be randomized to receive either NBTXR3 as intratumor injection, activated by external beam radiation therapy or external beam radiation therapy alone, as preoperative treatment. Once the radiotherapy treatment is completed, tumor surgery will be performed in all patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of pembrolizumab in patients with advanced sarcomas.

Pazopanib is FDA approved as a second line and beyond treatment for metastatic soft tissue sarcoma. There is a population of elderly and debilitated soft tissue sarcoma patients that are not fit for standard first line chemotherapy that is doxorubicin based. As pazopanib is well tolerated with minimal side effects, the investigators propose a phase II study to evaluate pazopanib as a first-line agent in patients with non-resectable or metastatic disease who are not candidates for cytotoxic chemotherapy.

The efficacy of locally sourced compression therapy in the management of chronic leg ulcers and Kaposi Sarcoma in western Kenya will be studied in a rural setting

This research study is a clinical trial of a new combination of drugs as a possible treatment for relapsed/refractory Ewing sarcoma and/or osteosarcoma. The names of the drugs are: Cabozantinib Topotecan Cyclophosphamide The names of the non-investigational supportive care drugs are: Filgrastim, pegfilgrastim, or a related growth factor.

The participants of this study will have advanced malignancies (also known as advanced cancer). The main aim of this trial will be to study the blood levels (known as pharmacokinetics) of the tazemtostat (the study drug) when administered in combination with another drug. Part 1 of the study will evaluate the interaction between the drugs tazemetostat and itraconazole. Part 2 of the study will evaluate the interaction between the drugs tazemetostat and rifampin For both Parts 1 and 2, safety and the level that effects of the study drug can be tolerated (known as tolerability) will be assessed throughout.

The goal of this trial in Phase I is to determine the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) of hydroxychloroquine in combination with devimistat in patients with relapsed or refractory Clear Cell Sarcomas of the Soft Tissue and to describe the full toxicity profile. In Phase II, the goal is to evaluate the response rate [Complete Rate (CR) + Partial Rate (PR)] of the combination of devimistat and hydroxychloroquine in patients with relapse or refractory Clear Cell Sarcoma of the Soft Tissue and to evaluate the PK and PK/PD profiles for efficacy and safety of the combination of devimistat and hydroxychloroquine.

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)

Phase 1: To assess the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/ recommended dose of ganetespib when administered in combination with sirolimus in patients with refractory or relapsed sarcomas including unresectable or metastatic sporadic or neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) associated MPNST. Phase I enrollment has been closed. Phase 2: To determine the clinical benefit of ganetespib in combination with sirolimus for patients with unresectable or metastatic sporadic or NF1 associated MPNST.
