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 2 study tests two drugs, sunitinib and temsirolimus, in 137 people with advanced rare tumors that have no cure. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink tumors or slow their growth. Participants take one of the two drugs, and researchers measure how long the cancer…

This study tests a drug called lanreotide in 10 people with advanced or metastatic paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma, rare tumors that release hormones. The goal is to see if lanreotide can slow tumor growth compared to before treatment. Participants receive injections every 4 we…

This phase II trial tests the drug axitinib in 6 adults with metastatic or inoperable pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma, rare tumors of the adrenal glands or nerve tissue. Axitinib works by blocking blood vessel growth that feeds tumors. The main goal is to see how many patients'…

This study is testing a radioactive drug called Lutathera in teenagers aged 12 to 17 who have rare tumors of the digestive system or adrenal glands. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how much radiation reaches organs. Eleven teens are taking part, and researchers are wat…

This phase 2 trial is testing whether a combination of two drugs, talazoparib and temozolomide, can shrink tumors in people with rare cancers that have spread. The study includes 14 participants with advanced rare solid tumors, such as pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma, who have …

This study tests whether a new type of PET/CT scan, using a radioactive tracer called 68Ga-DOTATOC, can find neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and similar tumors more safely and accurately than current imaging methods. About 800 people with known or suspected NETs will receive the sca…

This study compares three different PET/CT scans (68Ga-HA-DOTATATE, 18F-DOPA, and 18F-FDG) in 50 people with metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. The goal is to see if all tumors show up on the standard scan or if some are missed, which could change treatment. Participants will get …

This pilot study is testing a radioactive antibody called 124I-Humanized 3F8 to see how it travels through the body and attaches to tumors in people with melanoma, neuroblastoma, or sarcoma. Seven participants will receive the antibody and then have PET/CT scans at several time p…
