This phase II trial studies the side effects of hypofractionated radiation therapy in treating patients with soft tissue sarcomas prior to 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.
This is a study comparing two methods of dressing a post operative wound that are currently in practice. One method is a traditional dry gauze dressing. The other method is using a negative pressure dressing that provides gentle suction on the wound. The investigators will attempt to determine how well the use of post-operative negative pressure dressing reduces wound healing problems in patients who have surgery after radiation for a sarcoma in the thigh or leg.
The main purpose of this 3-part study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug known as LY2880070 in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
Assessment of the efficacy and safety of JX-594 and metronomic cyclophosphamide in patients with advanced soft-tissue sarcoma and advanced breast cancer, once the Maximum Tolerated Dose have been determined (phase I trial). Phase I study: this is a prospective open-labeled phase I trial based on a dose escalating study design assessing two dose levels of JX594 when prescribed in combination with metronomic cyclophosphamide. Phase II trials with two treatments strategies: Metronomic CP + JX-594: phase II study sarcoma: this is a monocentric, randomized two-arm non comparative phase 2 study assessing efficacy and safety of JX-594 in association with metronomic cyclophosphamide in patients with advanced soft-tissue sarcoma. Metronomic CP + JX-594: phase II study breast cancer: this is a monocentric, single-arm phase II study, assessing efficacy and safety of JX-594 in association with metronomic cyclophosphamide in patients with advanced breast cancer. Metronomic CP + JX-594 + Avelumab: phase II study sarcoma: this is a monocentric, single arm phase II study assessing efficacy and safety of avelumab in combination with IT JX-594 and metronomic cyclophosphamide in patients with advanced soft-tissue sarcoma. Metronomic CP + JX-594 + Avelumab:: phase II study breast cancer: this is a monocentric, single-arm phase II study, assessing efficacy and safety of avelumab in combination with IT JX-594 and metronomic cyclophosphamide in patients with advanced breast cancer.
Prospective, open-label, dose-ranging, uncontrolled phase I/II study of Lurbinectedin in combination with irinotecan. The study will be divided into two stages: a Phase I dose escalation stage and a Phase II expansion stage.
Progress in the treatment of children with leukemia and lymphoma results in high cure rates but progress in the treatment of children and adolescents with solid tumors has been slow. Despite aggressive therapy with multimodality treatment involving surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, about two thirds of the patients with metastatic Ewing sarcoma (EWS), and intermediate and high risk rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) will relapse. The available second line therapies for relapse are limited and often not effective. There is a dire need to look for treatment options beyond conventional means for the treatment of these patients. Infusions of allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells in leukemia patients have shown to be tolerated well without inducing graft versus host disease (GVHD). There is also mounting evidence that NK cells have activity against solid tumors. In the lab the investigators tested NK cell activity against cell lines from different paediatric solid tumors. Among paediatric solid tumors, EWS and RMS are exquisitely sensitive to killing by expanded NK cells; NK cells also have activity against OS cells. Preliminary clinical data suggest that donor NK cells may exert antitumor activity in children with solid tumors undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Taking into account the safety of adaptive NK cell infusion, and their efficacy against EWS, RMS and OS, NK cells could be a powerful new tool in the treatment of paediatric solid tumors. The great anti-tumor activity of expanded and activated NK cells, together with the feasibility of infusing haploidentical NK cells in a non-transplant setting form a compelling rationale for the clinical testing of these NK cells in patients with sarcoma.
Background: - Some people with cancer have solid tumors. Others have refractory leukemia. This may not go away after treatment. Researchers want to see if a drug called TURALIO(R) can shrink tumors or stop them from growing. Objectives: - To find the highest safe dose and side effects of TURALIO(R). To see if it helps treat certain types of cancer. Eligibility: - People ages 3-35 with a solid tumor or leukemia that has returned or not responded to cancer therapies. Design: - Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood and urine tests - Heart tests - Scans or other tests of the tumor - Participants will take TURALIO(R) as a capsule once daily for a 28-day cycle. They can do this for up to 2 years. - During the study, participants will have many tests and procedures. They include repeats of the screening tests. Participants will keep a diary of symptoms. - Participants with solid tumors will have scans or x-rays. - Participants with leukemia will have blood tests. They may have a bone marrow sample taken. - Some participants may have a biopsy. - When finished taking TURALIO(R), participants will have follow-up visits. They will repeat the screening tests and note side effects.
INDICATION: Metastatic bone sarcomas: conventional high grade osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma of bone, intermediate or high-grade chondrosarcomas and chordomas and either bone or soft tissue metastatic CIC-rearranged sarcomas
The aim of the proposed project is to study the long-term impact of adjuvant systemic multi- agent chemotherapy (cisplatin, anthracyclines, vincristine, methotrexate, alkylating agents) in survivors (treated between 1992 and 2014 in UZ Leuven) of paediatric bone or soft tissue sarcomas on neurocognitive functioning.
