Filter by:This is an open label, two-stratum, phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of 9-ING-41 in combination with gemcitabine/docetaxel in patients ≥10 years of age with advanced sarcoma. 9-ING-41 in combination with gemcitabine and docetaxel will lead to sustained disease control and/or increase the rates of objective response in patients with unresectable or metastatic soft tissue and bone sarcomas.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a new investigational drug, ATX-101, for the treatment of dedifferentiated liposarcoma (LPS) and leiomyosarcoma (LMS). ATX-101 is an intravenous (IV) drug which blocks the interaction of a protein called PCNA with a number of "stress response" proteins. These interactions are thought to be important for cancer cell survival and growth. ATX-101 may disrupt these interactions and therefore help treat the cancer. In this study, all patients will receive the same treatment. Most of the exams, tests, and procedures are part of the usual approach to medical care for this condition. However, some additional tests or procedures may be performed, and other tests may be performed more frequently than usual.
This research study involves the study drug lurbinectedin in combination with doxorubicin. This research has two parts. The first part is being done to determine the tolerability of lurbinectedin with doxorubicin in people with soft tissue sarcoma. The second part is a randomized study to determine which is more effective at treating leiomyosarcoma, lurbinectedin with doxorubicin or lurbinectedin alone.
This is an open-label, multicenter, first-in-human dose-escalation and expansion Phase 1-2 study designed to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of OR2805 administered as a monotherapy and in combination with anti-cancer agents in subjects with advanced solid tumors.
Dinutuximab beta was designed to bind to neuroblastoma cells and other cancer cells that express the GD2 antigen, such as STS/LMS cells, and it is believed that this binding "labels" the cells an makes them a better target. In addition, γδ T cells can safely be expanded in-vivo using intravenous zoledronic acid and subcutaneous interleukin-2 (IL-2) in patients with different types of solid tumors [Dieli et al., 2007; Pressey et al., 2016]. It is supposed that combination treatment using dinutuximab beta, zoledronic acid and IL-2 is more effective than their use in isolation. The already-established safety profiles of these agents make testing of the combination in GD2 positive cancers such as GD2 expressing LMS both rational and feasible [Fisher et al., 2015].
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called Ontorpacept or TTI-621) when given alone and when given in combination with doxorubicin for people with leiomyosarcoma. Leiomyosarcoma is a tumor of the smooth muscles. This study is seeking participants who have: - leiomyosarcoma that is advanced or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) - not received prior treatment with anthracyclines (a drug commonly used in patients with some kinds of cancer, including leiomyosarcoma) - not received more than one prior treatment for their leiomyosarcoma During the first 18 weeks of this study, participants will receive doxorubicin by IV infusion (given directly into a vein) at the study clinic every 3 weeks for a total of 6 doses. Participants will also receive Ontorpacept (TTI-621) by IV infusion at the study clinic on the same day as doxorubicin and again one week later for the first 18 weeks. After the first 18 weeks, participants will stop receiving doxorubicin but will continue receiving Ontorpacept (TTI-621) as IV infusion every 14 days at the study clinic. They will keep receiving Ontorpacept (TTI-621) until their cancer is no longer responding to treatment. We will examine the experiences of participants receiving Ontorpacept (TTI-621) in combination with doxorubicin in the first 18 weeks and then Ontorpacept (TTI-621) by itself after the doxorubicin is stopped. This will help us determine if the study medicine Ontorpacept (TTI-621) given with doxorubicin and then by itself is safe and effective. Participants will be involved in the study for approximately one year, depending on how their cancer responds to the study treatment. They will have study visits about 12 times in the first 18 weeks (when the study medicine Ontorpacept is given with doxorubicin) and then every two weeks after the doxorubicin is stopped and the study medicine Ontorpacept (TTI-621) is given by itself.
The development of precise and non-invasive diagnostic methods is a priority in areas such as gynaecology and oncology, and above all in improving the health of those patients with a surgical indication for hysterectomy, laparoscopic or laparotomic myomectomy for diagnosis of uterine tumours. Indeed, in the absence of an accurate and objective preoperative diagnostic option, all patients with suspected benign tumours should be considered at risk for occult leiomyosarcoma. Recently, the concept of "liquid biopsy" has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to surgical biopsies for solid tumours with highly recurrent mutations, avoiding the sampling of tumour tissue before and after treatment. Generally, the liquid biopsy is obtained by taking a sample of blood or other body fluids, to provide tumour-specific information. Based on these premises, a prospective, observational and multicentre case-control study is proposed, the objective of which is to evaluate the diagnostic precision (sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value and positive predictive value) in the detection of molecular differences by liquid biopsy in patients with suspected myometrial tumour (leiomyoma / leiomyosarcoma). Depending on the results of these analysis, the application of this technology could allow the differential diagnosis of the tumour in a non-invasive and objective way, as well as the development of biomarkers and effective targeted therapies in the treatment of leiomyosarcomas. Consequently, we would also be increasing our knowledge of tumour biology and associated pathologies in a clinical and therapeutic context.
- Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is one of the more common soft tissue sarcomas (STS). - Patients presenting with large, high-grade, localized LMS are at significant risk of developing metastasis following curative surgery. - Clinical trials of neoadjuvant or adjuvant anthracycline and ifosfamide have suggested that patients with localized STS who are at high-risk of metastasis may benefit from chemotherapy, but the magnitude of benefit in unselected patient population is relatively small. - Currently, patient age, and tumor size and grade are used to assess risk of metastases and survival - Studies evaluating tumor response by imaging and histopathology have not established correlation between tumor characteristics as biomarkers for risk of metastasis or sarcoma recurrence. - Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is present in blood of patients with advanced/metastatic LMS and may serve as biomarker of tumor response to chemotherapy. Blood samples will be collected prior to, during and after chemotherapy and analyzed for ctDNA and for mutations in genes that are associated with increased risk of developing sarcoma. Tumor tissue will be collected and analyzed for changes in genes. Digital images of the sarcoma from CT or MRI scans obtained during treatment will be obtained for advanced radiomic analysis. Patients will be followed for 2 years after study entry for signs of sarcoma recurrence. - A biomarker of tumor response and patient survival benefit from chemotherapy early in the course of chemotherapy would be of significant impact in treatment planning.
9-ING-41 in combination with gemcitabine and docetaxel will lead to sustained disease control and/or increase the rates of objective response in patients with unresectable or metastatic soft tissue and bone sarcomas. This is an open label, two-stratum, phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of 9-ING-41 in combination with gemcitabine/docetaxel in patients ≥10 years of age with advanced sarcoma. Stratum A: Patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma previously treated with 0-3 prior lines of systemic therapy will receive 9-ING-41 twice weekly with gemcitabine on days 1 and 8 and docetaxel on day 8 of a 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Stratum B: Patients with relapsed or refractory bone sarcoma previously treated with at least one line of systemic therapy will receive 9-ING-41 twice weekly with gemcitabine on days 1 and 8 and docetaxel on day 8 of a 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Disease response assessment will be performed every 2 cycles (6 weeks) for the first 8 cycles (24 weeks), then every 12 weeks thereafter.
This is a phase 1, open-label, single centre study of investigational drug selinexor in participants with soft tissue sarcomas that cannot be treated with standard therapies. Selinexor has been given to 3111 participants with cancer to date including 142 sarcoma patients. Early findings have shown that selinexor is effective in multiple cancer types. The current study is being done to test low doses and different dosing schedules of selinexor to find out if it reduces the side effects without compromising the benefits. This study has 2 groups or Arms: Arm A and Arm B. Arm A (Dose escalation Arm): Participants will receive selinexor by mouth 4 days a week to find out the safety, tolerability and anti-tumor effect of low doses of Selinexor in participants with advanced or metastatic malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST), endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESS) and leiomyosarcoma (LMS). Participants will continue on study until disease progression or unacceptable side effects. Up to 36 participants will be enrolled in this Arm. Arm B: Participants with any soft tissue sarcoma subtypes will be enrolled in this Arm. They will receive flat doses of Selinexor by mouth once weekly, 3 times a day. Safety and tolerability will be assessed in this Arm. Up to 20 participants will be enrolled and they will continue to receive selinexor until disease progression or unacceptable side effects. Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of human cells. One of the ways cancers cells continue to grow is by getting rid of proteins called "tumor suppressor proteins" that would normally cause cancer cells to die. The study drug works by trapping "tumor suppressor proteins" within the cell, causing the cancer cells to die or stop growing. The study comprises 3 periods: Screening (up to 28 days), Study Drug (until disease progression), and Survival Follow-Up (once every 3 months). Procedures for research purposes only will include blood collection and study questionnaire.
