This study aims to determine the safety and tolerability of combined Atezolizumab, stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), and surgical resection of pulmonary metastases in patients with pulmonary recurrence of osteosarcoma
The goal of this pilot study is to learn about patients with newly diagnosed osteosarcoma of an extremity, and whether surgically removing the tumor prior to the administration of any chemotherapy will improve functional outcomes. In order to learn about the patient's experience, the study team will administer questionnaires to the patient and surgeon at various timepoints to assess recovery and the function of the extremity.
The participants of this study will be children, adolescents, and young adults with residual osteosarcoma, which cannot be removed completely through surgery. Participants will have achieved a partial response or stable disease at the end of conventional chemotherapy. Osteosarcoma is cancer of the bone. The cancer cells make immature bone cells, known as osteoid. Osteosarcoma is very rare, but it is the most common type of bone cancer in children and teens. It is most common in teens and young adults. In this study, participants will receive either cabozantinib and best supportive care or the best supportive care alone. Best supportive care will be provided at the investigator's discretion and according to institutional guidelines. It includes antibiotics, nutritional support, correction of metabolic disorders, optimal symptom control and pain management (including radiotherapy), etc. but does not include tumor specific therapy. Cabozantinib will be taken by mouth (orally), as a tablet, once a day. Cabozantinib will be provided to participants who tolerate it for as long as their disease does not progress. Participants in the study receiving best supportive care alone may switch to treatment with cabozantinib and best supportive care if their disease progresses and if other eligibility criteria are met. Participants may withdraw consent to participate at any time. The estimated duration of the study for participants is 24 months, however a participant could remain in the study longer if demonstrating treatment benefit.
The purpose of this study is to better understand how safe and effective the drug cabozantinib in combination with high-dose ifosfamide is in the treatment of children and adults with relapsed/refractory Ewing sarcoma and osteosarcoma.
The purpose of this study is to examine if we can predict sensitivity of osteosarcoma to different chemotherapy agents using tissue cultures in the laboratory. We know that different chemotherapy agents can be used in the treatment, but not every sarcoma responds to them equally. It is important to understand if testing of the tissue obtained during a routine biopsy or surgery may be useful in selecting appropriate treatments. In addition, additional testing of the tumor, including genetic testing, will help us to understand osteosarcoma better.
MP-VAC-209 is a Phase I/II, open label, single arm, multi-center study to assess safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of vactosertib as a single agent in adolescents and adults with recurrent, refractory, or progressive osteosarcoma. Vactosertib is given orally, twice a day, to people 12 years of age and older who meet the criteria for study enrollment.
This phase III trial compares the effect of open thoracic surgery (thoracotomy) to thoracoscopic surgery (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery or VATS) in treating patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung (pulmonary metastases). Open thoracic surgery is a type of surgery done through a single larger incision (like a large cut) that goes between the ribs, opens up the chest, and removes the cancer. Thoracoscopy is a type of chest surgery where the doctor makes several small incisions and uses a small camera to help with removing the cancer. This trial is being done evaluate the two different surgery methods for patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung to find out which is better.
This study is a Phase 1/1b clinical trial that aims to determine the Maximally Tolerated Dose of Losartan and Sunitinib Combination Therapy. Patients will first be accrued to the Dose Escalation phase of the study, using a 3+3 design. Medication dosages will increase until a maximally tolerated dose is found. Patients will then be accrued to the Dose Expansion phase of the trial, where efficacy of pre-determined dose will be preliminarily assessed.
The body has different ways of fighting infections and disease. No single way seems perfect for fighting cancer. This research study combines two different ways of fighting disease: antibodies and T cells. Antibodies are molecules that fight infections and protect your body from diseases caused by bacteria and toxic substances. Antibodies work by sticking to those bacteria or substances, which stops them from growing and causing bad effects. T cells are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells, including tumor cells or cells that are infected. Both antibodies and T cells have been used to treat patients with cancers. They both have shown promise, but neither alone has been enough to cure most patients. This multicenter study is designed to combine both T cells and antibodies in order to create a more effective treatment. The treatment that is being researched is called autologous T lymphocyte chimeric antigen receptor cells (CAR) cells targeted against the disialoganglioside (GD2) antigen that express Interleukin (IL)-15, and the inducible caspase 9 safety switch (iC9), also known as iC9.GD2.CAR.IL-15 T cells.
The purpose of this study is to look at the amount of function that returns in participants that have reconstruction with bone graft or artificial device and in participants who have tumor surgery plus regenerative osseous surgery. The study will look at the level of function for a period of 3 years after the surgery. Another purpose of this study is to look at how well the bone heals in participants undergoing regenerative surgery
