22CT015: CART 19-22 co-administration

CAR T cell therapy has shifted the treatment landscape for pediatric and young adult patients with advanced B-cell leukemias. This study aims to treat patients with relapsed disease by administering two CART cell products, huCART19 and CART22-65s. The study will determine the safety and efficacy and usefulness of administering two CAR T cell products in patients with advanced B-cell leukemias.

This is a Phase 1/2b trial for the treatment of patients with either advanced or refractory B cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or B-lineage lymphoblastic lymphoma. Possible procedures include medical record review, apheresis, huCART19 infusion, blood draws, physical exams, imaging, and disease assessments through bone marrows and lumbar punctures. Overall, approximately 93 subjects will be enrolled on this clinical trial.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

Afamitresgene Autoleucel in Pediatric Subjects with MAGE-A4 Positive Tumors

This study involves an investigational cellular therapy called Afamitresgene Autoleucel. The overall goal of this study is to find out how safe and effective this cellular therapy is in treating people that have been diagnosed with synovial sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST), neuroblastoma or osteosarcoma that has grown or returned after being treated.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Neuroblastoma, Osteosarcoma (bone cancer in children), Soft tissue sarcomas

Allo CD7 CAR WU-CART-007

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of an experimental form of therapy, known as WU-CART-007 ("study drug"). WU-CART-007 uses immune cells, called T cells, that are genetically changed to identify cancer cells. In this study, T cells are collected from a healthy human donor and have been modified in a laboratory. If the genetically changed T cells recognize and attach to cancer cells, they may have the ability to kill those cancer cells.

Patients with T-cell Acute Lymphoblatic Leukemia (T-ALL) or Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (LBL), where the disease has come back (relapsed) or has not responded to treatment (refractory) may be eligible for the study.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: No

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

Carfilzomib in ALL

CHOP, in collaboration with Onyx Therapeutics, Inc., is conducting a study for children and young adults up to 21 years old, with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia. This clinical trial is adding the study drug, Carfilzomib, to a standard relapse chemotherapy regimen. For more information about this study, including specific eligibility criteria, please visit clinicaltrials.gov and search for "NCT02303821". To hear more about this and other available trails or get any questions answered please contact our Cancer Intake Specialist by phone at 267-426-0762 or email Oncointake@email.chop.edu.

Phase: Phase II

Actively recruiting: No

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

Lurbinectedin in Ewing Sarcoma

This study involves taking a study drug called lurbinectedin. The overall goal of this study is to see if different doses of lurbinectedin are safe and effective at treating children and young adults with recurrent or relapsed solid tumors, including Ewing Sarcoma.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Central Nervous System (CNS) Germ Cell Tumors, Ewing sarcoma

PEEL-224 in Solid Tumors

This study enrolls patients with refractory, progressive, or relapsed solid tumors. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a drug called PEEL-224 ("the study drug") is safe and effective when given as monotherapy (a drug given by itself) and as part of a combination therapy together with other chemotherapy drugs.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Ewing sarcoma, Hepatoblastoma (liver cancer), Relapsed or Refractory Neuroblastoma, Osteosarcoma (bone cancer in children), Rhabdomyosarcoma, Soft tissue sarcomas, Wilms Tumor (Kidney Tumor)

Repotrectinib for ALK, ROS1, or NTRK1-3 Alterations

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of the investigational drug called repotrectinib in children whose cancers have specific genetic changes (in the ALK, ROS1, or NTRK1-3 genes). This is the first study using this drug in children under 12 years of age. Repotrectinib is administered in capsule form or liquid suspension.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Central Nervous System (CNS) Germ Cell Tumors

SAR443579 in AML, B-ALL, or MDS

This study involves taking a study drug called SAR443579. The overall goal of this study is to find out if the study drug is safe and effective at treating adults and children with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML), high risk myelodysplastic syndrome (HR-MDS), or B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). This is a first-in-human research study.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: No

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML), Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), Pediatric Leukemias, Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

Tegavivint for the Treatment of Solid Tumors, Lymphomas & Desmoids

This study has two parts. Part A enrolls patients who have been diagnosed with a solid tumor, lymphoma or desmoid tumor that has either come back ("relapsed") or does not respond to therapy ("is refractory"). Part B enrolls patients with a relapsed or refractory Ewing sarcoma, desmoid tumor, osteosarcoma, liver tumor, Wilms tumor, or tumors with changes in a gene family known as the Wnt pathway. This study involves taking a study drug called tegavivint. The study will be testing different doses of the study drug to find the safest dose.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Desmoid tumors , Ewing sarcoma, Hepatoblastoma (liver cancer), Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in Children, Osteosarcoma (bone cancer in children), Wilms Tumor (Kidney Tumor)

Tiragolumab and Atezolizumab in SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 Deficient Tumors

This study enrolls patients that have been diagnosed with SMARCB1 or SMARCB4 deficient cancer that has either come back (relapsed) or does not respond to therapy (is refractory) or have been newly diagnosed with a SMARCB1 or SMARCB4 deficient cancer that has no known standard treatment. This study involves taking study drugs called tiragolumab and atezolizumab. These drugs are a type of immunotherapy that try to make the immune system fight cancer. The purpose of the study is to learn more about the safety of tiragolumab in children and to see how well the combination of tiragolumab and atezolizumab works when given to children and adults with these types of tumors. This study has two parts. In Part A, participants will receive tiragolumab. In Part B, participants will receive both tiragolumab and atezolizumab.
