Active clinical trials for "Sarcoma"

Registration of all sarcoma patients treated at a specialized sarcoma center in Switzerland.

This clinical study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of CAR modified autologous T cells (CCT301-59) in subjects with recurrent or refractory solid tumors.

This is a phase II trial to explore the feasibility of PD-1 immune check point inhibitor, sintilimab, in combination of stand of care chemotherapy in first-line treatment of selected soft tissue sarcoma.

This randomized prospective open-label phase 2 trial testes the safety and feasibility of a hypofractionated accelerated neoadjuvant proton or carbon ion radiotherapy based on the rate of wound healing disorders from beginning of radiotherapy to maximum 120 days after the planned tumor resection or discontinuation of treatment due to any reason. The treatment is of shorter duration (2-3 weeks vs. 5 weeks standard treatment), which should please most patients and thus enhance quality of life. The treatment regimen furthermore promises a reduced rate of late side effects and significant optimization of the current treatment standards. A phase II trial is mandatory not only for obtaining the safety and feasibility data, but also in order to prepare a concurrent phase III trial. Due to the low incidence of soft tissue sarcoma, only a well prepared multicenter study has a chance to be successfully completed based on previous experiences in trials for seldom tumor entities.

This is a perspective multicentric study for the treatment of patients aged equal or less than 60 years and submitted to an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from an HLA compatible related or unrelated donor because affected by resistent or refractory or relapsed after autologous stem cell transplantation Ewing Sarcoma or Soft tissues sarcoma who did not benefit from conventional therapy.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the control rate (CR,PR,SD) of docetaxel and irinotecan (DI) combination chemotherapy for recurrent or refractory bone and soft tissue sarcomas.Al so, this study is to evaluate the toxicity profile of Docetaxel and Irinotecan (DI) combination chemotherapy.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating rhabdomyosarcoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying different combination chemotherapy regimens to compare how well they work in treating young patients with nonmetastatic rhabdomyosarcoma.

This is a Phase III study about the effects of the addition of polychemotherapy to adjuvant radiotherapy in the treatment of non-metastatic uterine sarcomas.

RATIONALE: HIV virus is found in the lesions of most patients with Kaposi's sarcoma, and may have a role in causing Kaposi's sarcoma. Antiviral therapy acts against the HIV virus and may be an effective treatment for Kaposi's sarcoma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well antiviral therapy works in treating patients with slowly progressing HIV-related Kaposi's sarcoma.

RATIONALE: Thalidomide may stop the growth of cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. Interferon alfa may interfere with the growth of cancer cells. Combining interferon alfa and thalidomide may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining interferon alfa and thalidomide in treating patients who have undergone surgery for soft tissue sarcoma or bone sarcoma.
