Soft Tissue SarcomaThis is an open-label, randomized, phase II study to evaluate the clinical activity of pembrolizumab in combination with pazopanib compared to pazopanib monotherapy.
Influence of Nutritional Status on Oncologic and Operative Outcome in Patients Operated for Retroperitoneal...
Retroperitoneal SarcomaBody Composition4 moreThis is a retrospective, observational study in consecutive patients operated on for primary RPS in the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana (Slovenia) between September 1999 and June 2020. This study aims to investigate the impact of preoperatively assessed body composition parameters on the perioperative outcomes of patients operated on for primary RPS. The impact of preoperative malnutrition, sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity and myosteatosis to the oncologic and postoperative outcome in patients operated on for primary RPS will be examined. Additionally, the aim is to evaluate the prognostic role of preoperative immune and inflammatory markers (serum albumin level, C-reactive protein, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, platelet to lymphocyte ratio, high-sensitivity modified Glasgow prognostic score) and prognostic nutritional index in primary RPS patients undergoing surgery. Patient outcome will be evaluated in terms of overall survival (OS), local-recurrence free survival (LRFS), postoperative intrahospital length of stay, overall and major postoperative morbidity.
A Study of Propranolol to Treat Kaposi Sarcoma
Kaposi SarcomaA clinical study of propranolol for the treatment of Kaposi Sarcoma in children and adults. This study will be an open-label single armed treatment trial that will test the effectiveness and the safety of treating Kaposi Sarcoma with propranolol.
A Phase 2 Clinical Study of Evaluation of Recombinant Anti-PD-1 Humanized Monoclonal Antibody Injection...
SarcomaSoft TissueThis is a single arm, open label, phase 2 study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination recombinant anti-PD-1 humanized monoclonal antibody injection (609A) and doxorubicin hydrochloride in the treatment of metastatic/unresectable non-specific soft tissue sarcoma
Differentiation of Bone Sarcomas and Osteomyelitis With Ferumoxytol-Enhanced MRI
Bone CancerChondrosarcoma6 moreThis pilot trial studies the differentiation of bone sarcomas and osteomyelitis with ferumoxytol-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Imaging procedures that allow doctors to more accurately differentiate between malignant bone sarcomas and osteomyelitis may help in diagnosing patients correctly and may result in more timely treatment.
Neoadjuvant ADI-PEG 20 + Ifosfamide + Radiotherapy in Soft Tissue Sarcoma
Soft Tissue SarcomaSts1 moreIn this study, patients with soft tissue sarcoma (STS) will receive ADI-PEG 20 and ifosfamide in combination with radiation as neoadjuvant therapy. In phase I of the study, up to 5 dose levels will be tested to find the recommended phase II dose (RP2D), after which patients enrolling to phase II will be treated at that dose level to assess efficacy.
Biobank and Register of Patients With Agresive Tumors for Translational and Analytical Research...
Malignant Solid TumorsPrimary Brain Tumor5 moreThe investigators will collect biosamples of patient blood and tumour tissue for further immunological analysis of blood cell subpopulations, immunosupressive factors concentration, HLA expression an lymphocytes and tumour tissue, and and cancer testis antigenes expression on tumour cells, as well as clinical data on patient's stage, therapy, response and demographics. Possible prognostic and predictive dynamic biomarkers will be discovered for individualisation of treatment strategies
A Phase II Study for 609A in the Treatment of Advanced Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma
SarcomaSoft TissueThe main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of recombinant anti-PD-1 humanized monoclonal antibody injection (609A) in patients with unresectable or advanced undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma
GRID Therapy for Extremity Soft Tissue Sarcoma
SarcomaPatients with extremity soft tissue sarcoma (STS) are at high risk of recurrence. Pre-operative radiotherapy is used to increase the safe removal of tumors and improve local control in these patients. Increasing the preoperative radiotherapy dose with standard techniques might lead to normal tissue toxicity and postoperative wound complications. GRID radiation therapy is a technique that may increases radiation dose with minimal added toxicity. It is hypothesized that GRID radiation dose will improve tumor response without increasing post-operative wound complications. While GRID has been used in many patients, there have been few formal studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the technique. In this study, a single priming dose of GRID will be administered to subjects with high-risk extremity soft tissue sarcoma prior to standard radiotherapy and tumor resection to determine the safety and clinical efficacy of the GRID dose. This single-arm pilot study will assess the safety of spatially fractionated grid radiation therapy (GRID) on 20 subjects with resectable extremity soft tissue sarcoma, followed by standard-of-care conventional radiotherapy (XRT) and tumor resection.
Geno-radiomics Based Model for Evaluation of Immunotherapy and Targeted Therapy for Advanced Soft...
Advanced Soft Tissue SarcomaIn this study, a new post-processing image technology - radiomics is used to screen out parameters of CT and MRI images, which could effectively evaluate the efficacy and prognosis of immunotherapy plus targeted therapy for soft tissue sarcoma (STS). A reliable and effective model for predicting the prognosis of STS will be established based on the radiomic parameters combined with traditional imaging, histophiological, whole exome sequencing (WES) results, inflammatory indicators and changes in the number and function of lymphocyte subsets before and after medication. Patients with advanced STS who may benefit from the combination therapy can be found out by this model.
