Study on Cabozantinib-S-Malate for Treating Young Patients with Sarcomas, Wilms Tumor, or Other Rare Tumors

Sponsor: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

Sponsor score: 0

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT02867592

This clinical trial is testing how well the drug cabozantinib-s-malate works in young patients with certain types of tumors that have come back, don't respond to treatment, or are newly diagnosed. The drug may help stop tumor growth by blocking enzymes needed for tumor and blood vessel growth.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is exploring the effectiveness of cabozantinib-s-malate in treating young patients with sarcomas, Wilms tumor, or other rare tumors that have returned, are resistant to treatment, or are newly diagnosed. The drug works by blocking certain enzymes that help tumors and their blood vessels grow.

Description

The main goals of this study are to see how well cabozantinib-s-malate works in children and young adults with specific types of tumors, such as Ewing sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, and Wilms tumor. Researchers want to know if the drug can improve disease control in patients with osteosarcoma compared to past experiences. They also aim to understand the drug's side effects and how it behaves in the body.

Patients will take cabozantinib-s-malate by mouth every day in 28-day cycles, as long as the disease does not progress or cause unacceptable side effects. After finishing the treatment, patients will have follow-up visits at 30 days, every 6 months for a year, and then annually for up to 5 years.
