Active clinical trials for "Sarcoma"

This study is being done to find the safest dose of DCC-3014 that can be given with avelumab to participants with advanced or metastatic sarcomas that will not cause serious side effects.

This phase II trial studies the wound complication risk of shorter course, hypofractionated pre-surgery radiation therapy in treating patients with localized soft tissue sarcoma of the extremity of superficial trunk that can be removed by surgery. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Shorter course hypofractionated pre surgery radiation therapy may be more convenient for patients with soft tissue sarcoma than a longer course of radiation therapy, and may result in fewer complications.

This pilot phase I trial studies how well itacitinib works in treating patients with sarcomas that do not respond to treatment (refractory) and have spread to other parts of the body (advanced/metastatic). Itacitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Retroperitoneal sarcoma is a rare cancer that accounts for 15% of soft tissue sarcomas and affects many young people. In approximately 50% of patients, the tumour will reappear in the same area regardless of therapy. Current treatment involves radical resection; however, it does not significantly reduce recurrence rates or improve overall survival. Recurrent retroperitoneal sarcoma does not respond well to chemotherapy and prognosis is often guarded. One of the main challenges in the surgical treatment of this disease is the ability to accurately identify the local extension of the disease and to prevent local recurrence. At present, there are no options to prevent recurrence after surgery. In recent years, there has been increased interest in the use of combined radical surgery with heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Radical resection is defined as en-bloc resection of the tumour including but not limited to surrounding organ resection and normal fat. This is in combination with the use of HIPEC. HIPEC is the use of chemotherapy in the intraperitoneal cavity that is heated to 40 to 42 degree Celsius. Surgery coupled with HIPEC has shown to reduce recurrence in colorectal cancer, appendiceal cancer and mesothelioma. We hypothesize that HIPEC when coupled with radical surgery will improve the overall outcomes of patients with retroperitoneal sarcomatosis. We hope to learn if this treatment approach will increase locoregional control to reduce recurrence rates and improve survival.

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of navtemadlin and radiation therapy in treating patients with soft tissue sarcoma. Navtemadlin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving navtemadlin and radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.

The purpose of this study is to test any good and bad effects of the combination of study drugs called NKTR-214 and nivolumab.

This phase II Pediatric MATCH trial studies how well palbociclib works in treating patients with Rb positive solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or histiocytic disorders with activating alterations (mutations) in cell cycle genes that have spread to other places in the body and have come back or do not respond to treatment. Palbociclib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the proteins needed for cell growth.

This phase II trial studies how well autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes LN-145 (LN-145) or LN-145-S1 works in treating patients with ovarian cancer, triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), anaplastic thyroid cancer, osteosarcoma, or other bone and soft tissue sarcomas that do not respond to treatment (refractory) or that has come back (relapsed). LN-145 is made by collecting and growing specialized white blood cells (called T-cells) that are collected from the patient's tumor. LN-145-S1 is made using a modified process that chooses a specific portion of the T-cells. The T cells may specifically recognize, target, and kill the tumor cells.

This is a multicenter, open label, Phase 1/2 study of YH001 initially given in combination with envafolimab, and then given in combination with envafolimab plus doxorubicin in patients with advanced or metastatic sarcoma, followed by Phase 2 cohorts of patients with select histologies of advanced or metastatic sarcoma.

This study will include participants with various types of cancer known as soft-tissue sarcomas. Tissues that can be affected by soft tissue sarcomas include fat, muscle, blood vessels, deep skin tissues, tendons and ligaments. Soft tissue cancers are rare and can occur almost anywhere in the body. Part 1 of this trial will study the safety and the level that adverse effects of the study drug tazemetostat in combination with doxorubicin (current front line treatment) can be tolerated (known as tolerability). It is also designed to establish a recommended study drug dosage for the next part of the study. Part 2 will evaluate and compare how long participants live without their disease getting worse when receiving the study drug plus doxorubicin versus doxorubicin plus placebo (dummy treatment).
