TERMINATED
Heated Intra-peritoneal Chemotherapy with Doxorubicin and Cisplatin for Abdominal for Pelvic Tumors in Pediatric Patients
Description

This early phase I trial studies how well heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy with doxorubicin and cisplatin work for the treatment of abdominal or pelvic tumors that can be removed by surgery (resectable), does not respond to treatment (refractory), or has come back (recurrent). Heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy is a procedure performed in combination with abdominal surgery for cancer that has spread to the abdomen. It involves the infusion of a heated chemotherapy solution that circulates into the abdominal cavity. Chemotherapy drugs, such as doxorubicin and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Heating a chemotherapy solution and infusing it directly into the abdomen may kill more cells.

COMPLETED
Pazopanib Hydrochloride and Topotecan Hydrochloride in Treating Patients With Metastatic Soft Tissue and Bone Sarcomas
Description

Description

This phase II trial studies how well alisertib works in treating patients with sarcoma that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Alisertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

RECRUITING
Silmitasertib (CX-4945) in Combination With Chemotherapy for Relapsed Refractory Solid Tumors
Description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the investigational drug, silmitasertib (a pill taken by mouth), in combination with FDA approved drugs for solid tumors. An investigational drug is one that has not been approved by the U.S. Food \& Drug Administration (FDA), or any other regulatory authorities around the world for use alone or in combination with any drug, for the condition or illness it is being used to treat. The goals of this part of the study are: * Establish a recommended dose of silmitasertib in combination with chemotherapy * Test the safety and tolerability of silmitasertib in combination with chemotherapy in subjects with cancer * To determine the activity of study treatments chosen based on: * How each subject responds to the study treatment * How long a subject lives without their disease returning/progressing

ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING
A Study of Etrumadenant and Zimberelimab in People With Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma
Description

Participants will have a diagnosis of dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLS) that has spread beyond its original location (advanced). In addition, their DDLS either has come back after treatment (recurrent), has spread to different parts of your body (metastatic), or is unable to be removed surgically (unresectable). The purpose of this study is to find out whether the combination of etrumadenant and zimberelimab is an effective treatment for people with advanced DDLS.

ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING
Oleclumab and Durvalumab for the Treatment of Recurrent, Refractory, or Metastatic Sarcoma
Description

This phase II trial investigates how well oleclumab and durvalumab work in treating patients with sarcoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as oleclumab and durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

COMPLETED
Modified T Cells, Chemotherapy, and Aldesleukin With or Without LV305 and CMB305 in Treating Participants With Advanced or Recurrent Sarcoma
Description

This phase I trial studies how well autologous NY-ESO-1-specific CD8-positive T lymphocytes (modified T lymphocytes \[T cells\]), chemotherapy, and aldesleukin with or without dendritic cell-targeting lentiviral vector ID-LV305 (LV305) and immunotherapeutic combination product CMB305 (CMB305) work in treating participants with sarcoma that has spread to other places in the body (advanced) or that has come back (recurrent). Modified T cells used in this study are taken from participants, are changed in a laboratory, and may "kill" some types of tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Cyclophosphamide may help the body get ready to receive the modified T cells. Interleukins, such as aldesleukin, are proteins made by white blood cells and other cells in the body and may help regulate immune response. LV305 and CMB305 may help stimulate the immune system. Giving modified T cells, chemotherapy, aldesleukin, LV305, and CMB305 may work better in treating participants with sarcoma.

ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING

Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving nivolumab, ipilimumab, and radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma.
