CHORDOMA

This phase 2 trial is testing a combination of two immunotherapy drugs, nivolumab and ipilimumab, in 798 people with over 50 types of rare cancers. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink tumors by helping the immune system attack cancer cells. Participants receive the drugs…

This Phase II trial is studying whether proton beam therapy, with or without standard photon radiation, can effectively treat skull base chordoma, a rare tumor at the base of the skull. Nineteen participants who had surgery to remove as much tumor as possible are receiving daily …

This study tests a new drug called ERAS-601 in 12 adults with advanced chordoma, a rare bone cancer that has gotten worse. The drug works by blocking a protein called SHP2, which may help slow or stop tumor growth. The main goal is to see if the drug is safe and can control the c…

This study tests a combination of three drugs—tazemetostat, nivolumab, and ipilimumab—in children with rare tumors that lack the INI1 or SMARCA4 proteins. The goal is to find a safe dose and see if the drugs can shrink tumors. About 49 children with specific tumor types are being…

This study tests an experimental drug called BL-B01D1 in 27 adults with advanced chordoma, a rare bone cancer. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow disease progression. Participants receive the drug intravenously, and researchers monitor safety and effectivene…

This phase 2 trial is testing whether cetuximab, a targeted antibody drug, can shrink tumors in people with advanced or metastatic chordoma, a rare type of bone cancer. About 29 adults with inoperable or spread chordoma will receive cetuximab intravenously. The main goal is to se…

This early-phase study tests the safety of combining an immunotherapy drug (nivolumab) with or without precise radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery) in 21 people with chordoma that has returned or spread. The goal is to see if this combination causes fewer side effects and helps …

This phase 2 trial tests whether the drug regorafenib can stop or slow the growth of metastatic bone sarcomas (cancers that started in bone and spread). 163 patients with osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, chondrosarcoma, or chordoma are randomly assigned to receive regorafenib or a pl…

This study looks at people and families who have a high risk of cancer to learn what genes and environmental factors might increase that risk. Over 5,000 participants are followed over time with questionnaires, medical records, and optional genetic testing. No treatment is given,…

This study follows 400 patients for two years after they have endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery (surgery through the nose to reach the base of the skull). The goal is to measure their quality of life and nose function using standard questionnaires. It does not test a new tr…
