Radiation Therapy With or Without Combination Chemotherapy or Pazopanib Before Surgery in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Non-rhabdomyosarcoma Soft Tissue Sarcomas That Can Be Removed by Surgery

This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well pazopanib, when combined with chemotherapy and radiation therapy or radiation therapy alone, work in the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas that can eventually be removed by surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ifosfamide and doxorubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Pazopanib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether these therapies can be safely combined and if they work better when given together in treating patients with non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas.

Tiragolumab and Atezolizumab for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 Deficient Tumors

This phase I/II trial studies how well tiragolumab and atezolizumab works when given to children and adults with SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficient tumors that have either come back (relapsed) or do not respond to therapy (refractory). SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficiency means that tumor cells are missing the SMARCB1 and SMARCA4 genes, seen with some aggressive cancers that are typically hard to treat. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as tiragolumab and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

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.

Multimodal Immune Characterization of RAre Soft Tissue Sarcoma - MIRAS Project From SARRA (SARcome RAre) Project of the French Sarcoma Group

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).

Evaluate the Safety and Clinical Activity of HH2853

This is an open-label, multicenter, first-in-human phase I/II study which is composed of 3 parts: phase I dose escalation, phase I dose extension and phase II. HH2853 will be administered orally on a continuous BID schedule on a continuous 28-day treatment cycle.

Study of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in Children and Young Adults With INI1-Negative Cancers

This clinical trial is studying two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and ipilimumab) given together as a possible treatment for INI1-negative tumors.

An Observational Study on Epithelioid Sarcoma

Prospective Italian study aimed to provide a description of the population affected by Epithelioid Sarcoma (ES)

A Study of Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC) in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Patients With Metastatic and/or Locally Advanced Sarcoma

The purpose of this study is to determine how well the combination of therapy of talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) and pembrolizumab works in the treatment of patients with sarcoma.

Tazemetostat+Nivo/Ipi in INI1-Neg/SMARCA4-Def Tumors

This research study involves a combination of three drugs given together as a possible treatment for malignant rhabdoid tumor, atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor, epithelioid sarcoma, chordoma or other tumors that are deficient in one of two possible proteins, either INI-1 (SMARCB1) or SMARCA4. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * Tazemetostat (TAZVERIK) * Nivolumab (OPDIVO) * Ipilimumab (YERVOY)

MASCT-I Combined With Doxorubicin and Ifosfamide for First-line Treatment of Advanced Soft Tissue Sarcoma

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of MASCT-I combined with Doxorubicin and Ifosfamide for first-line treatment in patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma.
