Filter by:This is an open-label Phase 2 randomized study that will examine the use of the study agents, CMB305 (sequentially administered LV305 which is a dendritic cell-targeting viral vector expressing the New York Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma 1 gene [NY-ESO-1] and G305 which is a NY-ESO-1 recombinant protein plus glucopyranosyl lipid adjuvant-stable emulsion [GLA-SE]) in combination with atezolizumab or atezolizumab alone, in participants with locally advanced, relapsed or metastatic sarcoma (synovial or myxoid/round cell liposarcoma) expressing the NY-ESO-1 protein. There is no formal primary hypothesis for this study.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of sapanisertib and to see how well it works compared to pazopanib hydrochloride in treating patients with sarcoma that is too large to be removed (locally advanced) or has spread to other areas of the body (metastatic). Sapanisertib and pazopanib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This research study is studying stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as a possible treatment for lung relapse of Ewing sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, osteosarcoma, non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma, Wilms tumor or other primary renal tumor (including clear cell and rhabdoid). SBRT is a form of targeted radiotherapy that can treat very small tumors using a few large doses.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate changes in immune activity relative to baseline following treatment with Toca 511 and Toca FC in patients with solid tumors (including recurrent high grade glioma [rHGG]) or lymphoma. This is a multicenter, open-label study of Toca 511 and Toca FC. Patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma, for whom curative options are not available, will be enrolled into the study, subject to all entry criteria. Tumors must be accessible to biopsy and/or resection. Patients will be qualified based on the presence of specific molecular characteristics, documented by Foundation Medicine (or equivalent) genomic profile report, and specific tumor types. Toca 511 will be administered by IV injection followed by (1) intratumoral injection following biopsy or (2) injection into the resection cavity wall following planned resection in the case of rHGG or brain metastases. Toca FC will be administered orally in cycles of therapy. Patients not undergoing resection of brain tumors will undergo 2 biopsies to allow assessment of baseline and follow-up immune activity in the tumor. Changes in immune activity in peripheral blood will be measured in all patients.
Radiotherapy (RT) alone is able to induce a clinically significant effect with a variable pathologic response (a pathological complete remission, pCR, defined as ≥ 95%, or ≤ 5% remaining visible tumour cells) in only about 10% of cases. A prior phase I study (PASART-1; NCT01985295) suggested that 25 x 2 Gy preoperative RT in combination with once daily 800mg oral pazopanib is feasible, while inducing tissue replacing tumor that can consist of fibrosis and necrosis in 40% of thus treated patients. During this study, the interim analysis showed that the combination treatment of preoperative radiation with orally pazopanib is more effective than was anticipated. For this reason, the pazopanib dose of 800 mg once daily is maintained but the RT dose is reduced to 18x2Gy instead of 25x2Gy. Predominant aim of this RT dose reduction is lowering the wound complication risk after preoperative radiotherapy.
Soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) are a rare group of cancers that can arise in any 'soft' tissue but commonly involve muscles, fat and nerves. Even following surgery and radiotherapy over 50% of tumours will recur or spread and at present, there is no reliable test that allows doctors to predict in which patients this will occur. DNA that is not inside cells (cell-free or cfDNA) is present in very small quantities circulating in blood. In cancer patients some of this cfDNA comes from cancer cells. Analysis of cancer-derived cfDNA in patients with other cancers has shown that the quantity and characteristics of cfDNA changes with stage of disease and treatment. The researchers plan to investigate the abundance and persistence of cancer-derived cfDNA in STS patients at various stages of disease to investigate the potential role of these characteristics as biomarkers. Selection of the genetic characters to be tracked in the patients' cfDNA is an important consideration. An established hallmark of a cancer cell is the ability to undergo an unlimited number of cell divisions. In normal human cells protective structures on the ends of chromosomes called telomeres provide a mechanism to limit the number of times a healthy cell can divide. This limitation has to be overcome in cancer cells for a tumour to form. This occurs by the activation of one of two telomere maintenance mechanisms (TMM) - either an enzyme called Telomerase or a mechanism known as Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres (ALT). In many sarcomas the activation of either TMM is associated with genetic changes (mutations) in a small number of genes. As these mutations are not present in normal cells but mark an essential feature of cancer cells (and their capacity for unlimited cell division) they are likely to be reliable markers of the presence of STS cells. The investigators plan to develop sensitive, quantitative assays to detect TMM associated mutations in tumour derived cfDNA in the blood of patients with STSs, and track these mutations overtime. They will establish the amount of cancer-derived cfDNA in STS patients at the time of surgery, and persistence of this cfDNA during follow up visits following tumour resection and in the events of local tumour recurrence or spread (metastatic disease). Once these basic parameters are established analysis will be broadened to include other genes that are commonly mutated in STSs with a view of identifying other genetic characteristics that may also aid identification of patients at high risk of recurrence or spread. In summary all of the assays described above should facilitate better monitoring of patients with STS, and allow earlier treatment if STS recurs following surgery.
This study is looking to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of lyso-thermosensitive liposomal doxorubicin (LTLD) administered in combination with MR-HIFU in children with relapsed/refractory solid tumors, which may include but are not limited to rhabdomyosarcoma and other soft tissue sarcomas, Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors, osteosarcoma, neuroblastoma, Wilms' tumor, hepatic tumors, and germ cell tumors.
This is a Phase 1b, open label, multi-center study of CMB305 (sequentially administered LV305 [a dendritic cell-targeting viral vector expressing the NY-ESO-1 gene] and G305 [NY-ESO-1 recombinant protein plus GLA-SE]) in patients with melanoma, sarcoma, ovarian cancer, or non-small cell lung cancer that express NY-ESO-1.
