The primary objectives of this study are to determine if a tailored prehabilitation program focusing on functional optimization of spared limb tissue in two groups of patients with localized, lower extremity soft tissue sarcoma, one with prehabilitation and one with equal attention and informational support, improves functional outcome as measure by the Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS), to identify the measures and metrics most responsive to the intervention using the (TESS), Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT)[5], wearable Heel2Toe sensor technology and daily step count, and to estimate recruitment, retention, adherence, and acceptability rates.

The purpose of this study is to provide patients who have locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) and have received treatment with at least 2 prior Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved therapies early access to ripretinib until such time that ripretinib becomes commercially available or the Sponsor chooses to discontinue the program.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, effectiveness, and pharmacokinetics of THE-630 in participants with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Ripretinib on the pharmacokinetics of a CYP2C8 Substrate.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of the NEUWAVE MicroWave Ablation System with AC (Ablation Confirmation) software in patients undergoing ablation of a soft tissue liver lesion.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of Avapritinib on the pharmacokinetics of Midazolam in patients with unresectable or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) or other advanced solid tumors.

The purpose of this expanded access program is to provide access to avapritinib until such time that avapritinib becomes available through other mechanisms or the Sponsor chooses to discontinue the program.

The objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of masitinib at 12 mg/kg/day to sunitinib at 50 mg/day

This is a 2‑arm, randomized, placebo-controlled, double‑blind, international, multicenter study comparing the efficacy of DCC-2618 to placebo in patients who have received treatment with prior anticancer therapies. Prior anticancer therapies must include imatinib, sunitinib, and regorafenib (3 prior therapies). Approximately 120 patients will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to DCC‑2618 150 mg QD or placebo

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of DCC-2618 to sunitinib in GIST patients who progressed on or were intolerant to first-line anticancer treatment with imatinib. Approximately 358 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to DCC-2618 150 mg once daily (QD) (continuous dosing for 6 week cycles) or sunitinib 50 mg QD (6 week cycles, 4 weeks on, 2 weeks off).

The purpose of this study is to compare CGT9486 in combination with sunitinib to treat gastrointestinal stromal tumors.

This is an open-label, randomized, Phase 3 study in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic GIST (advanced GIST) of avapritinib (also known as BLU-285) versus regorafenib in patients previously treated with imatinib and 1 or 2 other TKIs.

The purpose of this study is to create a research registry to prospectively collect research biospecimens and corresponding clinical data from subjects with an undiagnosed tumor or undifferentiated mass.

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with doxorubicin (DOXO) and Cisplatin (CDDP) after surgical resection of pediatric pelvic and abdominal tumors, and to assess morbidity, hospital length of stay and peri-operative mortality outcomes for pediatric patients with intraperitoneal sarcoma undergoing hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

This phase II trial studies how well cabozantinib-s-malate works in treating younger patients with sarcomas, Wilms tumor, or other rare tumors that have come back, do not respond to therapy, or are newly diagnosed. Cabozantinib-s-malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for tumor growth and tumor blood vessel growth.

The purpose of this study is to see how well lorvotuzumab mertansine works in treating younger patients with Wilms tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, neuroblastoma, pleuropulmonary blastoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), or synovial sarcoma that has returned or that does not respond to treatment. Antibody-drug conjugates, such as lorvotuzumab mertansine, are created by attaching an antibody (protein used by the body's immune system to fight foreign or diseased cells) to an anti-cancer drug. The antibody is used to recognize tumor cells so the anti-cancer drug can kill them.

Information regarding the delay in diagnosis as well as the causes of the delay are lacking in the U.S. Specifically, we aim to identify patient factors and provider factors that contribute to delayed diagnosis of sarcoma.

The goal of this study is to create a comprehensive system of tissue banking of samples from Mayo Clinic Arizona patients with a clinical diagnosis of sarcoma who will or have undergone a surgical procedure to remove the sarcoma.  The tissue samples will be used for future research of sarcoma at Mayo Clinic and future research at Mayo Clinic to learn about, prevent, or treat other health problems.   

Tinostamustine (EDO-S101) is a new chemical entity, an AK-DAC (a first-in-class alkylating deacetylase inhibiting molecule) that, in preclinical studies, has been shown to simultaneously improve access to the DNA strands within cancer cells, break them and block damage repair. This Phase 1/2 study will enroll patients with various advanced solid tumors.

The goal of the study is to create a database of clinical information and a repository of biological specimens for genetic, molecular and microbiological research to better understand hereditary cancer and help develop new therapies and preventive strategies.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the challenges, behavioral patterns, and preferences of minority patient participation in clinical trials. Also, to develop and validate a personalized clinical trial educational platform to boost participation among underserved cancer patients.

Falls are common and catastrophic in cancer patients. Cancer patients are vulnerable to falls due to muscle loss. In prescribing exercise in a data driven manner to cancer patients, our hypothesis is this "prescription" for exercise will eventually be demonstrated to reduce the occurrence of injurious falls.
