Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and the maximum tolerated dose of of pbi-shRNA™ EWS/FLI1 Type 1 lipoplex in patients with advanced Ewing's sarcoma.
Study for the treatment of metastatic Ewing sarcoma with high doses chemotherapy, radiotherapy and maintenance therapy.
This phase II clinical trial studies how well thermal ablation and spine stereotactic radiosurgery work in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the spine (spine metastases) and is at risk for compressing the spinal cord. Thermal ablation uses a laser to heat tumor tissue and helps to shrink the tumor by destroying tumor cells. Stereotactic radiosurgery delivers a large dose of radiation in a short time precisely to the tumor, sparing healthy surrounding tissue. Combining thermal ablation with stereotactic radiosurgery may be a better way to control cancer that has spread to the spine and is at risk for compressing the spinal cord.
We intend to investigate the clinical application of two emerging imaging modalities for which the technical capability is currently in place at Mayo Clinic. The treatment of Ewing Sarcoma (ES), Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and soft tissue sarcoma (STS) patients on this study will involve multi-disciplinary contributions from nationally recognized sarcoma experts in Radiation Oncology, Radiology, Orthopedic Surgery, Pediatric Oncology, Medical Oncology and Pathology. Patients will undergo additional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging at the same time as the standard imaging. The ability to compare several imaging modalities within a single cohort of patients maximizes the potential of the study to impact the future management of sarcoma patients. The collaborative nature of this study, with essential contributions from many departments will undoubtedly improve the coordinated care of sarcoma patients and naturally disseminate the advanced imaging experience that is acquired.
As the transparency committee of the Haute Autorité de Santé pointed out due to lack of data regarding comparative trial of Yondelis versus best supportive care, activity of Yondelis in soft tissue sarcoma remain to be assessed. For an antineoplastic drug toxicity is moderate. As previous studies shown, overall survival data for patients with advanced or metastatic STS are of poor prognosis despite improvement of results this last years. For example, median overall survival increased from 12,3 months (1987-1991) to 11,4 months (1992-1996) and then 18 months (2002-2006). Considering the latest results with and without Trabectedin, the investigators may consider that comparing Trabectedin with best supportive care is ethically acceptable as long as patients consent to enter the trial.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two anti-cancer drugs (gemcitabine and docetaxel) with and without the study drug known as olaratumab in participants with advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) or STS that has spread to another part(s) of the body.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1/2 study of the CTLA-4 antibody, tremelimumab, and the PD-L1 antibody, durvalumab (MEDI4736), in combination with the tumor microenvironment (TME) modulator poly-ICLC, a TLR3 agonist, in subjects with advanced, measurable, biopsy-accessible cancers.
The purpose of this research study is to test if Axitinib together with Pembrolizumab can slow tumor growth and know the side effects of the combination treatment.
This non-interventional study aims primarily at assessing the clinical effectiveness and the impact of the therapy on cancer-related symptoms and patients' HRQoL. In addition, it represents an attempt towards gaining experience on the routine use of trabectedin in daily clinical practice in a representative sample of Greek subjects with aSTS.
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).
