Filter by:Purpose: To assess the utility of PET/MR in assessing response to neoadjuvant radiation therapy in the treatment of high grade sarcomas. Participants: Adult patients with potentially curable high grade sarcomas that are being treated at UNC with neoadjuvant radiation therapy followed by potentially curative surgical resection. Procedures (methods): Patients who are being treated for potentially curable high grade sarcomas with neoadjuvant radiation therapy followed by surgical resection undergo pre-treatment, mid-treatment, and post-treatment PET/MR and the response to treatment is assessed by evaluating change in size and FDG avidity. Patients then undergo curative intent resection and are followed. Their pathology is reviewed for treatment affect as is assessed by percent necrosis, size, and resection margins. Patients are followed and assessed for recurrence.
The primary aim of this study is to investigate the possibility to replace an erythrocyte based prime solution with a crystalloid based prime solution while maintaining metabolic function. Secondary also to study if potentially reduced immunological influence is obtained during hyper thermic isolated limb perfusion with a crystalloid based prime solution.
The purpose of this study is to determine how well the combination of therapy of talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) and pembrolizumab works in the treatment of patients with sarcoma.
Apatinib is a kind of innovative medicines approved by China Food and Drug Administration（CFDA）, which was researched by Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Apatinib is a kinase inhibitor of receptor tyrosine with VEGFR2. The protocol is to explore Apatinib for the effectiveness of advanced soft tissue sarcoma and safety.
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab and interferon gamma-1b work in treating patients with stage IB-IVB mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome that has come back (relapsed) or has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Interferon gamma-1b may boost the immune system activity. Giving pembrolizumab and interferon gamma-1b together may work better in treating patients with stage IB-IVB mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to understand safety and efficacy in participants with soft tissue sarcomas.
This study evaluates the intratumoral administration of escalating doses of a novel, experimental drug, INT230-6. The study is being conducted in patients with several types of refractory cancers including those at the surface of the skin (breast, squamous cell, head and neck) and tumors within the body such (pancreatic, colon, liver, lung, etc.). Sponsor also plans to test INT230-6 in combination with anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies.
This is a feasibility study in patients with localized or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma undergoing surgery to determine how sarcoma in situ responds to injected microdoses of anti-cancer therapeutics.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of doxorubicin in combination with pembrolizumab in subjects with metastatic or unresectable soft tissue sarcoma. Based on previous studies, pembrolizumab may be an effective study treatment.
This study will test the feasibility of using novel/existing imaging technologies focused on hypoxia measurements to determine "response to therapy" in pediatric soft tissue sarcomas as a pilot study. Specifically, the investigators will compare the sensitivity of Blood Oxygen Level Dependent [BOLD], Diffusion-Weighted [DW] MRI, Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) and 18F-FAZA PET-MRI with that of conventional MRI to detect measurement changes between the start and completion of neoadjuvant therapy ("response to therapy") in children and adolescents (7-18 years) with suspicion of sarcoma tumors. Clinicians and scientists may use results of the proposed hypoxia-imaging surrogate markers to adjust/modify therapeutic schemes to patients on a personalized basis.
