Clinical Trials

This phase II trial studies how well alisertib works in treating patients with advanced or metastatic sarcoma. Alisertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if pazopanib when given in combination with topotecan can help to control sarcomas. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. Pazopanib hydrochloride and topotecan hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate abemaciclib versus placebo to treat Advanced Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma. Patients with progression of disease will cross over to open label abemaciclib.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of milademetan compared to trabectedin in patients with unresectable (i.e., where resection is deemed to cause unacceptable morbidity or mortality) or metastatic DD liposarcoma that progressed on 1 or more prior systemic therapies, including at least 1 anthracycline-based therapy.

This is a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 2-3 study of patients diagnosed with advanced unresectable dedifferentiated liposarcoma. Approximately 279 total patients will be randomized to study treatment (selinexor or placebo).

Goals:

1. Report and describe patient-reported functional outcomes for hand and foot soft tissue sarcomas treated with limb sparing surgery and radiation therapy.

2. Describe radiotherapy volumes for hand and foot soft tissue sarcomas treated with limb sparing surgery and radiation therapy.

3. Report local control outcomes for hand and foot soft tissue sarcomas treated with limb sparing surgery and radiation therapy.

4. Report survival outcomes for hand and foot soft tissue sarcomas treated with limb sparing surgery and radiation therapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of pembrolizumab in patients with advanced sarcomas.

Pazopanib is FDA approved as a second line and beyond treatment for metastatic soft tissue sarcoma. There is a population of elderly and debilitated soft tissue sarcoma patients that are not fit for standard first line chemotherapy that is doxorubicin based. As pazopanib is well tolerated with minimal side effects, the investigators propose a phase II study to evaluate pazopanib as a first-line agent in patients with non-resectable or metastatic disease who are not candidates for cytotoxic chemotherapy.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two anti-cancer drugs (gemcitabine and docetaxel) with and without the study drug known as olaratumab in participants with advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) or STS that has spread to another part(s) of the body.

This research study is a Phase I clinical trial. Phase I clinical trials test the safety of an investigational intervention. Phase I studies also try to define the appropriate dose of the investigational therapy to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the intervention is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it.

Retroperitoneal sarcomas are soft tissue tumors located at the far back of the abdomen. Typically, patients with retroperitoneal sarcomas either have surgery for the removal of their tumors alone, or have their tumors removed, followed by standard radiation therapy, ...

The purpose of this study is to compare a medicine called BI 907828 with doxorubicin in people with liposarcoma. BI 907828 is a so-called MDM2 inhibitor that is being developed to treat cancer.

Doxorubicin is a medicine already used to treat cancer including liposarcoma. During the study, participants get either BI 907828 or doxorubicin. Every 3 weeks, participants take BI 907828 as tablets or doxorubicin as an infusion into a vein. Participants can switch to BI 907828 treatment if they did not benefit from doxorubicin treatment. Participants can continue treatment in the study as long as they benefit from it and ...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well trabectedin and olaparib work in treating patients with sarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other places in the body.

Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as trabectedin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing cells, stopping them from dividing or stopping them from spreading. Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking pathways responsible for repairing damaged cells. Giving trabectedin and olaparib may shrink or stop the tumor from growing.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate genetically-engineered ADP-A2M4 in HLA-A*02 subjects with metastatic or inoperable (advanced) Synovial Sarcoma or Myxoid/Round Cell Liposarcoma (MRCLS) who have received prior chemotherapy and whose tumor expresses the MAGE-A4 tumor antigen.

Regorafenib might or might not slow down the growth of your tumor, or shrink your tumor. Regorafenib is approved in the United States to treat colon cancer and one form of sarcoma (GIST), but we do not know if regorafenib is useful to treat people with liposarcoma, osteosarcoma, and Ewing / Ewing-like sarcomas.

One drug like regorafenib, called pazopanib, is approved to treat some sarcomas, but is not approved to treat liposarcoma, osteosarcoma.

Since we do not know if any of these types of drugs help people with liposarcoma, osteosarcoma, or Ewing/Ewing-like sarcoma, our goal in this study ...

The present study is an open-label, randomized, controlled, two-arm multi-center study of the efficacy of L19TNF treatment in combination with doxorubicin versus doxorubicin alone in metastatic or unresectable soft-tissue sarcoma patients. In the study, 122 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive doxorubicin treatment (Arm 1) or L19TNF treatment in combination with doxorubicin (Arm 2). The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate if L19TNF in combination with doxorubicin (Arm 2) given for unresectable or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma improves efficacy measured as progression free survival, as compared to doxorubicin alone (Arm 1). Anti-cancer activity will ...

Information regarding the delay in diagnosis as well as the causes of the delay are lacking in the U.S. Specifically, we aim to identify patient factors and provider factors that contribute to delayed diagnosis of sarcoma.

The purpose of this study is to create a comprehensive system of tissue banking of samples from Mayo Clinic Arizona patients with a clinical diagnosis of sarcoma who will or have undergone a surgical procedure to remove the sarcoma. 

The goal of this study is to create a comprehensive system of tissue banking of samples from Mayo Clinic Arizona patients with a clinical diagnosis of sarcoma who will or have undergone a surgical procedure to remove the sarcoma.  The tissue samples will be used for future research of sarcoma at Mayo Clinic and future research at Mayo Clinic to learn about, prevent, or treat other health problems.
