This study tests a drug called zanzalintinib (XL092) in 29 people with advanced leiomyosarcoma that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The drug works by blocking signals that help cancer cells grow. The goal is to see if it can slow the cancer's progression longer than c…

This early-phase study tests an experimental drug called OKN4395, taken as a pill, alone or together with the immunotherapy pembrolizumab. The goal is to find a safe dose and see if the combination can shrink tumors in people with advanced solid cancers like lung, colorectal, sto…

This early-phase trial tests whether adding zanzalintinib to the chemotherapy drug eribulin can help control advanced liposarcoma and leiomyosarcoma better than eribulin alone. About 18 adults whose cancer has worsened after prior treatments will receive the combination. The main…

This study is for adults with high-risk soft tissue sarcoma that can be removed by surgery. It tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (atezolizumab) to standard chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery can delay the cancer from coming back. About 50 participants will receive the …

This study tests the drug nivolumab in people with advanced rare cancers that have a specific marker (PD-L1). The goal is to see if the drug can shrink or control the tumors when other treatments have stopped working. Up to 28 adults will receive treatment for up to 12 months, an…

This phase II trial compares the chemotherapy drugs trabectedin and gemcitabine in 100 people with advanced leiomyosarcoma that has worsened after initial treatment. The study aims to see which drug better delays cancer progression. It also includes an observational group for tho…

This early-phase trial is testing a combination of two drugs, gemcitabine and nab-sirolimus, in people with advanced leiomyosarcomas or soft-tissue sarcomas that have lost function in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes. The main goal is to find a safe and tolerable dose. The study plans to e…

This phase 3 trial tests the drug AL3818 (anlotinib) in people with advanced alveolar soft part sarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, or synovial sarcoma. Currently, only patients with alveolar soft part sarcoma are being enrolled. Participants receive AL3818 pills or a standard chemotherapy …

This study tests whether the drug regorafenib can help prevent bone sarcomas from coming back after initial treatment. About 168 people aged 12 and older with various bone sarcomas will be randomly assigned to take regorafenib for up to 12 months or to receive standard monitoring…

This phase 2 trial tests whether the drug regorafenib can help keep high-grade bone sarcomas from growing in patients who still have some disease after standard treatment. About 36 people aged 12 and older will take regorafenib daily for up to 12 months. The main goal is to see h…

This study tests whether giving the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin weekly at a lower dose is effective and easier to tolerate for people aged 65 to 100 with advanced leiomyosarcoma, a type of soft tissue cancer. The standard dose often causes harsh side effects, especially in olde…

This study tests whether a higher dose of proton radiation can better control inoperable soft tissue sarcomas without increasing side effects. Forty adults with these rare tumors will receive targeted radiation over 4 weeks. Researchers will also look at blood and imaging markers…

This study tests whether a personalized 3-week course of proton radiation before surgery for soft tissue sarcoma can reduce long-term side effects compared to standard X-ray radiation. About 110 adults in Norway will receive either proton or X-ray therapy, chosen individually for…

This study tests a new combination of drugs (tislelizumab, liposomal doxorubicin, and ifosfamide) as a first treatment for people with advanced soft tissue sarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if this combo shrinks tumors and is safe. About …

This study tests a new drug called QL1706 in 45 adults with advanced bone or soft tissue sarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. Participants receive the drug every 3 weeks. The main goal is to see if the cancer stays stable for at least 12 weeks. Researchers wil…
