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.
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.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of heated doxorubicin that can be given to patients during surgery with abdominal tumors. The safety of this drug will also be studied.
This study proposes to treat patients with the combination of erlotinib and temozolomide. Patients with relapsed, recurrent, refractory, or high risk malignancies whose tumors possess a non-synonymous mutation in EGFR, ERBB2, or JAK2V617F (JAK2) will be eligible for the study. Very few phase 2 clinical trials have been performed in pediatrics using targeted agents in combination with conventional chemotherapy agents. Furthermore, since some combinations such as the combination of this study (erlotinib and temozolomide) have shown additive/synergistic effects in preclinical studies, therapy selecting for those patients who possess mutations targeted by the TKI of the study, may unveil activity that has not been previously observed. Thus, the investigators hope to determine whether the addition of additive/synergistic chemotherapy will increase efficacy of target agent and/or increase tumor susceptibility to targeted agent resulting in increased anti-tumor activity.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Doxil (liposomal doxorubicin) given prior to MR-HIFU Hyperthermia is safe for the treatment of pediatric and young adult patients with recurrent and refractory solid tumors.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well imetelstat sodium works in treating younger patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors. Imetelstat sodium may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is to find a recommended dose level of LY2940680 that can be safely given to children with medulloblastoma or rhabdomyosarcoma that has returned or doesn't respond to initial treatment. The study will also explore the changes in a cancer marker levels. Finally, the study will help document any antitumor activity.
Anthracycline antibiotics are included in the chemotherapy regimens of approximately 82% of patients with bone cancer and 44% of those with soft tissue sarcoma diagnosed in childhood or adolescence. Impaired cardiac function occurs after treatment with anthracyclines. The frequency of impairment increases with increasing cumulative dose. There are inadequate data regarding the relationship between doxorubicin administration and changes in serum levels of cardiac troponin T (cTn-T) or I (cTn-I), N-terminal (NT) brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), or tissue Doppler imaging parameters. This non-therapeutic study proposes a prospective, single arm study of serial changes in tissue Doppler imaging parameters, cTn-T and NT-BNP in children and adolescents with malignant bone and soft tissue tumors whose planned chemotherapy includes treatment with ≥ 375 mg/m2 of doxorubicin. The proposed study will rigorously evaluate the usefulness of serial determinations of tissue Doppler imaging, cTn-T and NT-BNP for very early identification of anthracycline-related myocardial injury. Demonstration that one or more of these markers identifies subclinical myocardial damage and that biomarker or tissue Doppler imaging parameters exhibit a dose-response relationship with cumulative doxorubicin dose would facilitate intervention trials in patients at risk for anthracycline cardiomyopathy.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and immunological effects of a vaccine for people diagnosed with high risk neuroblastoma, osteogenic sarcoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma. It is hypothesized that this vaccine could reduce the incidence of relapse.
