Clinical Trials for Sarcoma

A Phase 2 Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Cobimetinib in Refractory Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis, LCH-Associated Neurodegenerative Disease, and Other Histiocytic Disorders.

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

TrialFetch AI summary: Enrolling children and adults with biopsy-proven, measurable histiocytic disorders—including refractory/recurrent LCH, LCH-associated neurodegenerative disease, Erdheim-Chester disease, juvenile xanthogranuloma, Rosai-Dorfman disease, and histiocytic sarcoma—across pediatric and adult cohorts. Patients receive oral cobimetinib monotherapy, a MEK1/2 inhibitor targeting MAPK pathway–driven disease (e.g., BRAF V600E, MAP2K1, ARAF), with monitoring for class toxicities.

A Phase Ib/II Study of the Mirdametinib in Combination With Palbociclib in Patients With Advanced Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

TrialFetch AI summary: Adults with unresectable, recurrent, or metastatic dedifferentiated liposarcoma receive oral mirdametinib (MEK1/2 inhibitor) plus palbociclib (CDK4/6 inhibitor) to evaluate safety and disease control, including patients with measurable, progressing disease and prior lines allowed (excluding prior MEK or selective CDK4 inhibitors in Phase II). Allows treated/stable brain metastases; key exclusions include significant cardiac disease/QTc >470 ms, ILD, ocular risk, strong CYP3A/UGT modulators, and inadequate organ function.

A Phase II Study on Efficacy and Tolerability of Weekly Doxorubicin in Elderly Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Leiomyosarcoma of Soft Tissue

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

Aims to assess 12-week PFS and tolerability, with correlative studies on immune effects of anthracycline (topoisomerase II inhibitor/DNA intercalator) therapy.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07125183

A Phase II Study of ASTX727 in Patients With PRC2 Loss Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor (MPNST)

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

TrialFetch AI summary: Adults with unresectable or metastatic PRC2-loss MPNST (H3K27me2/3 loss or EED/SUZ12/EZH2 alterations) after prior therapy receive oral ASTX727 (cedazuridine/decitabine) days 1–5 of 21-day cycles with pegfilgrastim support. ASTX727 combines a cytidine deaminase inhibitor to boost exposure of decitabine, a DNA hypomethylating agent that inhibits DNMT, aiming to exploit epigenetic vulnerabilities in PRC2-deficient tumors.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04872543

Interleukin-15 and -21 Armored Glypican-3-specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor Expressing Autologous T Cells as an Immunotherapy for Children With Solid Tumors (CARE)

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

TrialFetch AI summary: Children and young adults (1–21 years) with relapsed/refractory GPC3-positive solid tumors (including HCC) receive cyclophosphamide/fludarabine lymphodepletion followed by a single infusion of autologous GPC3-targeted CAR T cells co-expressing IL-15 and IL-21, with an inducible caspase-9 safety switch. The investigational CAR targets the tumor proteoglycan GPC3, with IL-15/IL-21 “armoring” intended to enhance T-cell expansion and persistence.

GALLANT: A Phase 2 Study Using Metronomic Gemcitabine, Doxorubicin, Docetaxel and Nivolumab as Second/Third Line Therapy for Advanced Sarcoma

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

TrialFetch AI summary: Adults with unresectable or metastatic sarcoma after at least one prior therapy (ECOG 0–2) receive metronomic gemcitabine, doxorubicin, and docetaxel on days 1 and 8 of 21-day cycles, with nivolumab (PD-1 inhibitor) added from cycle 2 onward, continued up to one year. Excludes patients with active autoimmune disease requiring systemic therapy or hypersensitivity to study drugs.
