Filter by:The purpose of this study is to collect information from participants' medical records to improve our knowledge about immunotherapy use and how effective it is as a treatment for people with sarcoma. Immunotherapy drugs boost the immune system's ability to fight cancer by blocking proteins that act as a "brake" on the immune system. Blocking these proteins is like releasing the brakes, so that the immune system can target cancer cells and destroy them. This action is sometimes described as "immune checkpoint blockade.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the potential survival benefits of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with target treatments followed by radical surgery in patients with primary high-risk/grade retroperitoneal sarcoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Whether the 1,3-year progression-free survival time(PFS) is prolonged in the neoadjuvant therapy group, compared with the surgery-only group. - The Overall survival time in the two groups. - The safety and tolerance in the neoadjuvant therapy group. Participants will be allocated into two groups once they meet the inclusion criteria. - Surgery-only Group: Patients will directly undergo surgeries after the confirmation of diagnosis through pre-operative biopsy. - Neoadjuvant therapy group: Patients will receive the neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with target treatment for three circles before the following sarcoma resectional surgeries.
This rollover protocol allows continued access to seclidemstat (SP-2577) for patients who are still receiving clinical benefit on completed or closed Salarius sponsored studies.
Aspirin and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) are both commonly employed pharmacologic methods of venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis after orthopaedic surgery. Data comparing these two methods of VTE prophylaxis in patients undergoing pelvic/lower extremity orthopaedic surgery for malignancy are lacking, however, as compared to the data and guidelines present for VTE chemoprophylaxis after joint arthroplasty and hip fracture surgery. In this clinical trial, our specific aim is to compare the post operative incidence of VTE between patients receiving aspirin and LMWH after pelvic/lower extremity orthopaedic oncology procedures.
Post-radiotherapy fragility fractures (caused by weakened bones) are an occasional complication of orthopedic oncology of soft tissue sarcoma patients. Treatment for impending fracture due to radiotherapy does exist in the form of operative stabilization, to prevent the bone from breaking. Without the ability to predict those patients at a higher risk for fracture, indications for treatment are difficult to determine. This study is to determine if there is a correlation between patients undergoing radiotherapy for soft tissue sarcoma and loss of bone density. The study wll evaluate bone loss for short and long term fracture prediction using dual-energy xray, absorptiometry (DEXA [DXA]) and computerized tomography scans (CT Scans)
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.
This study will provide continuing availability to tazemetostat for people that have previously completed participation in a tazemetostat study, either with monotherapy (single drug treatment) or combination therapy. The aim of the study will be to assess the long-term safety of tezemetostat.
The purpose of this study is to achieving a six-month progression free survival (PFS) of patients receiving autologous dendritic cell vaccine (ADKV) loaded with allogeneic tumor lysate expression of cancer-testis antigens (CTA) in patients with soft tissue sarcomas
To determine the activity of weekly Docetaxel and Gemcitabine in patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma previously treated with anthracycline and/or ifosfamide 1. Primary endpoint: response rate 2. Secondary endpoint: progress-free survival, overall survival, safety
The purpose of this protocol is to provide patients with adequate informed consent to understand that screening tests with minimal health risk will be performed to evaluate their eligibility for a research study. The protocol makes it clear that patients initial visit to the intramural clinical program may include screening studies that are not medically necessary for disease management, but are done purely for research purposes. Patients with a known or suspected diagnosis of cancer, HIV infection, skin disorder or immunodeficiency who are being considered for enrollment in a National Cancer Institute intramural clinical research protocol will participate in this consent protocol. It informs patients of screening tests and procedures involving minimal risk that are done for research purposes only, including blood tests, electrocardiogram, standard X-rays (e.g., chest X-ray), bone films, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear medicine studies. It explains that other eligibility screens that are more invasive and involve greater risk, such as a biopsy, will require separate consent.
