Program Overview
This study is exploring the use of tegavivint, a drug that may help stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking certain signals inside the cells. The trial is in two phases: Phase I will determine the safest dose and Phase II will assess the drug's effectiveness in shrinking tumors. The study involves patients with solid tumors that have come back or are not responding to treatment, including lymphomas and desmoid tumors. Participants will receive the drug through an IV infusion once a week for three weeks, followed by a week of rest, in a 28-day cycle. The treatment can continue for up to 26 cycles or 24 months unless the disease progresses or side effects become unacceptable. Regular scans and blood tests will be conducted to monitor the treatment's effects.
Description
The main goals of this study are to find the safest dose of tegavivint and to see if it can help shrink tumors in children and young adults with certain types of cancer. The study will also look at any side effects and how the drug moves through the body. Participants will receive tegavivint through an IV infusion once a week for three weeks, followed by a week off, in a 28-day cycle. This treatment can continue for up to 26 cycles or 24 months unless the cancer worsens or side effects become too severe. Patients will have regular x-rays and scans to check the progress of the treatment. Blood samples will also be collected throughout the trial to help researchers understand how the drug is working. After finishing the treatment, patients will have follow-up visits every few months for several years to monitor their health.
