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

Larotrectinib RAI Thyroid (LANTERN)

This study enrolls patients with newly diagnosed differentiated thyroid cancer (papillary thyroid cancer or follicular thyroid cancer) that has spread to the lungs and has a genetic mutation called and NTRK fusion. The study involves taking a study drug called larotrectinib for approximately 6 months prior to receiving radioiodine therapy (RAI). The overall goal of this study is to find out if taking the study drug before RAI works better than receiving RAI alone (the usual standard of care treatment).

Phase: Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children, MRI/Imaging Studies

Conditions: Thyroid Cancer in Children, Differentiated Thyroid Cancer

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

Selpercatinib in Thyroid Cancer (Collaboration with the International Thyroid Oncology Group)

This study involves taking a study drug called selpercatinib. The overall goal of this study is to find out how effective the study drug is in combination with radioactive iodine (I-131) in treating people with thyroid cancer. The study drug will be given in combination with treatments you will receive as part of your regular cancer care (I-131 and thyrotropin alfa).

Phase: Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Thyroid Cancer in Children

Selpercatinib RAI Thyroid (RAISE Trial)

This study enrolls patients with newly diagnosed differentiated thyroid cancer (papillary thyroid cancer or follicular thyroid cancer) that has spread to the lungs and has a genetic mutation called RET fusion. The study involves taking a study drug called selpercatinib for approximately 6 months prior to receiving radioiodine therapy (RAI). The overall goal of this study is to find out if taking the study drug before RAI works better than receiving RAI alone (the usual standard of care treatment).

Phase: Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children, MRI/Imaging Studies

Conditions: Thyroid Cancer in Children, Differentiated Thyroid Cancer

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.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Central Nervous System (CNS) Germ Cell Tumors
