Summary: This phase II trial studies how well atezolizumab or atezolizumab plus bevacizumab works in treating patients with alveolar soft part sarcoma that has not been treated, has spread from where it started to other places in the body (advanced) and cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Atezolizumab works by unblocking the immune system, allowing the immune system cells to recognize and then att...

Summary: This phase II trial tests whether atezolizumab alone or in combination with selinexor works to shrink tumors in patients with alveolar soft part sarcoma and whether the study drugs are better than the usual approach in treating this type of cancer. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for alveolar soft part sarcoma if they are not part of a clinical study, which includes treatment...

Summary: The purpose of this study is to find out whether giving the study drug pembrolizumab in combination with the chemotherapy drugs melphalan and dactinomycin, delivered directly to the affected arm or leg using a technique called isolated limb infusion (ILI), is a safe treatment that can delay the time before your disease gets worse (progresses).

Summary: 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...

Summary: This study is a single-arm, phase 2 trial of Geptanolimab in patients with initially unresectable, recurrent or metastatic ASPS. The study aims to study the activity of Geptanolimab assessed per RECIST 1.1 and iRECIST criteria, and safety profile.

Summary: Metastasis is the main cause of death in cancer patients and often epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is advocated as the basic mechanism. Recently Fang and colleagues described an EMT-independent process of metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC): endothelium covers small cluster of tumor cells allowing tumor dissemination. This process of angiogenesis, named VETC (vessels that encap...
