Sarcoma Clinical Trials

Background: - Laboratory investigators who are studying common childhood cancers are interested in developing a tissue repository to collect and store blood, serum, tissue, urine, or tumors of children who have cancer or adults who have common childhood cancers. To develop this repository, additional samples will be collected from children and adults who have been diagnosed with common childhood cancers such as leukemia and tumors of the central nervous system. Objectives: - To collect and store blood, serum, tissue, urine, or tumor samples of children who have cancer or adults who have common childhood cancers. Eligibility: * Individuals who have been diagnosed with a common childhood cancer (e.g., leukemia) regardless of patient age. * Children, adolescents, and adults who have been diagnosed with a type of cancer more commonly found in adults. Design: * Extra blood, serum (the liquid part of blood), tissue, urine, or tumor samples will be collected from participants at a time when sampling is required for medical care or as part of a research study. * No additional procedures will be performed for the sole purpose of obtaining additional tumor tissue, aside from what is required for clinical care.

The purpose of this study is to study normal and sarcoma cells. To study these cells we need to have human tissue. You will be having or have already had a procedure to remove tissue. We would like to use some of this tissue. We will use it for laboratory studies on the diagnosis,behavior and treatment of sarcoma. We will perform an extensive analysis of your samples. We will only use extra tissue left over after all needed testing has been done or remove an additional small amount of tissue if you are having a biopsy. We will also take blood samples before and/or after your procedure to measure biochemical factors that may help us predict the behavior of sarcoma. Read Less

This study will test the safety of a study drug called CRD3874-SI. The researchers will test different doses of CRD3874-SI to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects in participants. After the researchers find the highest safe dose of CRD3874-SI, they will test that dose in new groups of participants to help them learn more about the side effects of the study drug and find out whether CRD3874-SI is an effective treatment for for patients with advanced or metastatic malignant solid tumors including sarcoma and Merkel Cell Carcinoma.

This is a Phase 1 dose-escalation study evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity, and efficacy of SLV-154 across a range of dose levels when administered to subjects with metastatic solid tumors. Read Less

This is a multicenter, open-label, prospective Phase 1/2a study to assess safety and tolerability, establish dosimetry and to identify an optimal imaging dose (radioactivity) and imaging time window of 64Cu-LNTH-1363S, and to compare its imaging biodistribution with FAP expression by IHC in patients with sarcomas or GIT cancers. The study will be conducted in 2 parts (Part 1 and Part 2). Read Less

The purpose of this study is to investigate the study drug, OKN4395, administered alone and in combination with pembrolizumab. The overall objectives of this study are to determine the safety and tolerability (degree to which side effects of a drug can be tolerated) of OKN4395 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab, OKN4395 and metabolites (broken-down substances) of OKN4395 levels in the blood, and antitumor activity of OKN4395 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab. This study will be split into 2 parts. Part 1a will look at multiple doses of OKN4395 either alone (monotherapy) or with pembrolizumab (combination therapy) administered on day 1 of each 21-day cycle in patients with solid tumors until the participant has disease progression or discontinues for any reason. The dose of OKN4395 will be increased, after each group of 3 or more patients completes their first 3 weeks of treatment and their data is evaluated for safety, with a planned dose range from 10 mg twice a day to 450 mg twice a day through 13 dose levels. Part 1b will evaluate OKN4395 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab administered on day 1 of each 21-day cycle in patients with selected cancer types. Part 1b will comprise 5 cohorts: Cohort 1 in sarcoma (OKN4395 alone), Cohort 2 pancreatic adenocarcinoma (OKN4395 alone), Cohort 3 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), Cohort 4 in colorectal cancer, and Cohort 5 in head \& neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), with cohorts 3 to 5 in combination with pembrolizumab. The monotherapy expansion Cohort 1 will also be used to explore the effect of food on the levels of OKN4395 in the blood. Similarly, Cohort 2 will be used to explore the effect of gastric pH on the levels of OKN4395 in the blood. The overall study will enrol approximately 166 participants with up to 54 participants to receive OKN4395 alone and 12 participants to receive OKN4395 in combination with pembrolizumab in Part 1a, and 100 participants in Part 1b split: 40 on monotherapy and 60 on combination therapy. The study will be conducted in the US, Australia, UK and in the EU. Read Less

This 2-part study will evaluate safety, tolerability, and clinical efficacy of DS-2243a as a treatment for participants with advanced solid tumors. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a digital health program called AYA STEPS, which is designed to help adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors manage symptoms and engage in recommended follow-up care. Read Less

This early phase I trial studies an imaging technique called 68Ga-FAPi-46 PET/CT to determine where and to which degree the FAPI tracer (68Ga-FAPi-46) accumulates in normal and cancer tissues in patients with sarcoma. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case of this research, 68Ga-FAPi. Because some cancers take up 68Ga-FAPi it can be seen with PET. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in patient's body. Read Less

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: * Individuals will be screened with: * Medical history * Physical exam * Blood and urine tests * Heart tests * Scans or other tests of the tumor * Individuals 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. Individuals will keep a diary of symptoms. * Individuals with solid tumors will have scans or x-rays. * Individuals with leukemia will have blood tests. They may have a bone marrow sample taken. * Some individuals may have a biopsy. * When finished taking TURALIO(R), individuals will have follow-up visits. They will repeat the screening tests and note side effects. Read Less

A parallel-group randomized pilot trial at a single institution (Duke University) on the effect of postoperative hyperbaric oxygen therapy on wound healing in patients with soft tissue sarcoma undergoing surgical resection with neo-adjuvant radiation therapy.. Participants will be allocated to either the treatment group (HBOT) or control (standard of care) by computer-generated randomization, stratified by tumor size (≤10cm and \>10cm). An unequal randomization of 2:1 will be utilized to provide experience prescribing HBOT to more patients. Read Less
