Clinical Study in Adult and Young Adult Patients With Advanced Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor (DSRCT) ISG-TULIPS

Patients participating in this study have DSRCT that has spread locally or to other parts of the body and can no longer be surgically removed without causing significant harm. Treatment will continue until the tumor progresses further, severe side effects occur, or either patient or investigator decision. In addition, patients may participate in an optional biological study. The study will analyze the tumor's genes and the molecules related to them. By studying genes and their products, the investigators can better understand the behavior of the tumor and how the body responds to therapies.

Lurbinectedin in FET-Fused Tumors

The purpose of this study is to find out if a drug called lurbinectedin (the "study drug") is safe and effective at treating people with recurrent or relapsed solid tumors, including Ewing sarcoma.

Alpha/Beta T and B Cell Depletion With Zoledronic Acid for Solid Tumors

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can cure patients with blood cancer and other underlying diseases. αβ-T cell and B cell depletion has been introduced to decrease GVHD and PTLD and has demonstrated effectiveness for hematologic malignancies and non-malignant diseases additionally increasing the donor pool as to allow for haploidentical transplant to safely occur. While solid tumors can be highly chemotherapy sensitive, many remain resistant and require multimodalities of treatment. Immunotherapy has been developed to harness the immune system in fighting solid tumors, though not all have targeted effects. Some solid tumors are treated with autologous transplants; however, they do not always demonstrate an improved event free survival or overall survival. There has been evidence of the use of allogeneic stem cell transplants to provide a graft versus tumor effect, though studies remain limited. By utilizing αβ-T cell and B cell depletion for stem cell transplants and combining with zoledronic acid, the immune system may potentially be harnessed and enhanced to provide an improved graft versus tumor effect in relapsed/refractory solid tumors and promote an improved event-free survival and overall survival. This study will investigate the safety of treatment with a stem cell graft depleted of αβ-T cell and CD19+ B cells in combination with zoledronic acid in pediatric and young adult patients with select solid tumors, as well as whether this treatment improves survival rates in these patients.

Therapeutic Trial for Patients With Ewing Sarcoma Family of Tumor and Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumors

This protocol will study treatment for Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT) and desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT). Participants with ESFT will be divided into two treatment groups, A or B, based on tumor characteristics. Group A (standard risk) participants have tumor that is not in the pelvis, has not spread to other parts of the body, and are less than 14 years of age. Because previous clinical trials have shown that standard treatment is very effective for children whose tumors have these characteristics, these participants will receive standard treatment. Group B (high risk) participants are 14 years of age or older or have tumor in the pelvis, or the tumor has spread to other parts of the body. Participants with DSRCT in the abdomen and/or pelvis or with tumor that cannot be removed by surgery alone or has spread to other parts of the body will be included in Group B. Participants in this group are considered high risk because there is a greater chance of tumor recurring following standard treatments currently in use. All participants will be followed and evaluated for 10 years following completion of therapy.

This trial is a translational, open-label, multi-sites, prospective and retrospective cohort study of 500 patients aimed at clinical and biological characterization of sarcoma of rare subtype. 400 patients will be included in this prospective cohort study; they will be identified in the investigating centers in the context of either routine care or a clinical study protocol. Retrospective cases of patients (100 cases in total) will be identified in all centers through the GSF/GETO clinical databases already setted up (including the clinical base Conticabase).

Registry to Collect Health Information About Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor

This study is a patient registry of people with Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor (DSRCT). A patient registry is a collection of health information about a group of people, and it is usually focused on a specific diagnosis or disease. The purpose of this registry is to create a database- a collection of information-or better understanding DSRCT. Researchers will use the information from this database to learn more about DSRCT and for current and future research on DSRCT.

IO Combined With AI as First-line Treatment for Patients With Soft Tissue Sarcoma(TAIS)

This study will enroll patients with specific subtypes of unresectable or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma, and will combine tislelizumab with the standard chemotherapy of liposomal doxorubicin and ifosfamide to initially explore the efficacy and safety.

CAMPFIRE: A Study of Ramucirumab (LY3009806) in Children and Young Adults With Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor

This study is being conducted to test the safety and efficacy of ramucirumab in combination with other chemotherapy in the treatment of relapsed, recurrent, or refractory desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) in children and young adults. This trial is part of the CAMPFIRE master protocol (NCT05999994) which is a platform to accelerate the development of new treatments for pediatric and young adult participants with cancer. Your participation in this trial could last 12 months or longer, depending on how you and your tumor respond.

EGFR806 CAR T Cell Immunotherapy for Recurrent/Refractory Solid Tumors in Children and Young Adults

This is a phase I, open-label, non-randomized study that will enroll pediatric and young adult research participants with relapsed or refractory non-CNS solid tumors to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of administering T cell products derived from the research participant's blood that have been genetically modified to express a EGFR-specific receptor (chimeric antigen receptor, or CAR) that will target and kill solid tumors that express EGFR and the selection-suicide marker EGFRt. EGFRt is a protein incorporated into the cell with our EGFR receptor which is used to identify the modified T cells and can be used as a tag that allows for elimination of the modified T cells if needed. On Arm A of the study, research participants will receive EGFR-specific CAR T cells only. On Arm B of the study, research participants will receive CAR T cells directed at EGFR and CD19, a marker on the surface of B lymphocytes, following the hypothesis that CD19+ B cells serving in their normal role as antigen presenting cells to T cells will promote the expansion and persistence of the CAR T cells. The CD19 receptor harbors a different selection-suicide marker, HERtG. The primary objectives of the study will be to determine the feasibility of manufacturing the cell products, the safety of the T cell product infusion, to determine the maximum tolerated dose of the CAR T cells products, to describe the full toxicity profile of each product, and determine the persistence of the modified cell in the subject's body on each arm. Subjects will receive a single dose of T cells comprised of two different subtypes of T cells (CD4 and CD8 T cells) felt to benefit one another once administered to the research participants for improved potential therapeutic effect. The secondary objectives of this protocol are to study the number of modified cells in the patients and the duration they continue to be at detectable levels. The investigators will also quantitate anti-tumor efficacy on each arm. Subjects who experience significant and potentially life-threatening toxicities (other than clinically manageable toxicities related to T cells working, called cytokine release syndrome) will receive infusions of cetuximab (an antibody commercially available that targets EGFRt) or trastuzumab (an antibody commercially available that targets HER2tG) to assess the ability of the EGFRt on the T cells to be an effective suicide mechanism for the elimination of the transferred T cell products.

B7H3 CAR T Cell Immunotherapy for Recurrent/Refractory Solid Tumors in Children and Young Adults

This is a phase I, open-label, non-randomized study that will enroll pediatric and young adult research participants with relapsed or refractory non-CNS solid tumors to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of administering T cell products derived from the research participant's blood that have been genetically modified to express a B7H3-specific receptor (chimeric antigen receptor, or CAR) that will target and kill solid tumors that express B7H3. On Arm A of the study, research participants will receive B7H3-specific CAR T cells only. On Arm B of the study, research participants will receive CAR T cells directed at B7H3 and CD19, a marker on the surface of B lymphocytes, following the hypothesis that CD19+ B cells serving in their normal role as antigen presenting cells to T cells will promote the expansion and persistence of the CAR T cells. Arm A CAR T cells include the protein EGFRt and Arm B CAR T cells include the protein HER2tG. These proteins can be used to both track and destroy the CAR T cells in case of undue toxicity. The primary objectives of the study will be to determine the feasibility of manufacturing the cell products, the safety of the T cell product infusion, to determine the maximum tolerated dose of the CAR T cells products, to describe the full toxicity profile of each product, and determine the persistence of the modified cell in the participant's body on each arm. Participants will receive a single dose of T cells comprised of two different subtypes of T cells (CD4 and CD8 T cells) felt to benefit one another once administered to the research participants for improved potential therapeutic effect. The secondary objectives of this protocol are to study the number of modified cells in the patients and the duration they continue to be at detectable levels. The investigators will also quantitate anti-tumor efficacy on each arm. Participants who experience significant and potentially life-threatening toxicities (other than clinically manageable toxicities related to T cells working, called cytokine release syndrome) will receive infusions of cetuximab (an antibody commercially available that targets EGFRt) or trastuzumab (an antibody commercially available that targets HER2tG) to assess the ability of the EGFRt on the T cells to be an effective suicide mechanism for the elimination of the transferred T cell products.

B7-H3-Specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor Autologous T-Cell Therapy for Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors (3CAR)

3CAR is being done to investigate an immunotherapy for patients with solid tumors. It is a Phase I clinical trial evaluating the use of autologous T cells genetically engineered to express B7-H3-CARs for patients ≤ 21 years old, with relapsed/refractory B7-H3+ solid tumors. This study will evaluate the safety and maximum tolerated dose of B7-H3-CAR T cells.The purpose of this study is to find the maximum (highest) dose of B7-H3-CAR T cells that are safe to give to patients with B7-H3-positive solid tumors. Primary objective To determine the safety of one intravenous infusion of autologous, B7-H3-CAR T cells in patients (≤ 21 years) with recurrent/refractory B7-H3+ solid tumors after lymphodepleting chemotherapy Secondary objective To evaluate the antitumor activity of B7-H3-CAR T cells Exploratory objectives * To evaluate the tumor environment after treatment with B7-H3-CAR T cells * To assess the immunophenotype, clonal structure and endogenous repertoire of B7-H3-CAR T cells and unmodified T cells * To characterize the cytokine profile in the peripheral blood after treatment with B7-H3-CAR T cells

A Study of the Drug I131-Omburtamab in People With Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumors and Other Solid Tumors in the Peritoneum

The purpose of this study is to test any good and bad effects of the study drug 131I-omburtamab. 131I-omburtamab could prevent the cancer from returning, or delay the cancer from getting worse, but it could also cause side effects. Researchers hope to learn more about how 131I-omburtamab works in the body, and how effective it is in treating cancer. 131I-Omburtamab is not approved by the FDA to treat DSRCT or other cancers of the peritoneum.

Pasireotide as Maintenance Treatment in Synovial Sarcoma and Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor

PAMSARC is a non-commercial interventional Phase 2 clinical trial of academic research institutions, with its primary goal being to improve medical treatment of fusion driven Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) and Synovial sarcoma (SySa) in young adults and adolsecents with male predominance. Current management of DSRCT and SySa includes chemotherapy, radiation and aggressive cytoreductive surgery. Despite advances in multimodal therapy, outcomes remain poor with frequent disease recurrence and very limited options for patients with advanced disease. Selected somatostatin receptor (SSTR) family members, i.e., SSTR2, SSTR3 and SSTR5, are frequently overexpressed in DSRCT and SySa, providing the rationale for treatment with somatostatin analogues (SSA). Pasireotide is a SSA with high affinity for SSTR1, -2, -3, and -5 and is approved for the treatment of Cushing's disease and acromegaly and has also shown activity in other cancers. In patients with advanced stage DSRCT and SySa, conventional chemotherapeutic approaches frequently lead to disease response, however, the duration of progression-free time after chemotherapy is short. The targeted approach with pasireotide after initial intensive multimodal treatment may have the potential to significantly improve outcome.
