GD2CART for Osteosarcoma or Neuroblastoma

This study enrolls patients that have been diagnosed with osteosarcoma or neuroblastoma that has come back (relapsed) or has not responded to standard treatments (refractory). This study involves an investigational cellular therapy called GD2CART. The study will be testing different doses of the study drug to find the safest dose.

Phase: Phase I

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Neuroblastoma, Osteosarcoma (bone cancer in children)

Sodium MRI

The purpose of this study is to look at the Sodium Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) findings in children with brain tumors and healthy children. An MRI is a machine which takes pictures of the brain. The type of MRI image in this study is a new type that is not yet FDA approved and the study is looking to see if the new type of MRI image is useful in looking at sodium in the brain and brain tumors. Sodium MRI (also known as 23Na-MRI) is a useful non-invasive imaging technique to assess biochemical and physiologic changes in tissues, e.g. integrity of cells and tissue viability. Sodium MRI has been beneficial in the evaluation of several neurological disorders including acute ischemic strokes, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, migraines, and multiple tumor types, including tumors outside of the central nervous system.

NEPENTHE - Next Generation Personalized Neuroblastoma Therapy

This is a clinical trial for patients with neuroblastoma that has returned (relapsed) or has not responded to standard treatment. The patients will have a biopsy of their tumor that will be tested for genetic changes and then matched to available drugs. If the results from the testing show molecular features in the tumor that allow for study treatment, patients will be invited for further testing to see if they are eligible for new treatments. Experimental therapies are all taken orally and may consist of one drug or a combination of drugs

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: No

Category: Adults, Children, MRI/Imaging Studies

Conditions: Neuroblastoma

Advanced Cardiac Therapies (ACT) Intensive Care Unit Biorepository

The primary objective of this study is to collect biospecimens to conduct protein biomarker studies in patients with heart failure requiring advanced therapies such as OHT and VAD. A dedicated heart failure biospecimen repository will allow the Cardiac Center to be at the forefront of molecular sub-phenotyping to improve mechanistic understanding, clinical care, and trial design.

Phase: N/A

Actively recruiting: No

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Heart Failure in Children

CEST MRI Study for Children with Brain Tumors

This study aims to explore a new type of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) called Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) in children aged 6-18 years with brain tumors. An MRI is a machine that takes detailed pictures of the brain. The CEST MRI used in this study is still being tested and has not been approved by the FDA yet. The study wants to find out if this new type of MRI can help doctors evaluate brain tumors. CEST MRI creates images using water molecules and protons in the brain. Early research shows that CEST could be helpful in understanding brain tumor changes.

This study will enroll 5 participants.

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

Palbociclib, Irinotecan, and Temozolomide in Ewing Sarcoma

The purpose of the Phase 2 portion of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug called palbociclib when given in combination with two other drugs (temozolomide and irinotecan) in patients with Ewing sarcoma and when given in combination with topotecan and cyclophosphamide in patients with neuroblastoma.

Phase: Phase II

Actively recruiting: No

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Neuroblastoma
