This research study is a Pilot Study, also known as a Phase I-II study, which means it is the first time investigators are examining this study intervention for patients with lung recurrence of Ewing Sarcoma, Rhabdomyosarcoma, or Wilms Tumor. This study tests the most appropriate dose, safety and efficacy of ...

This study proposes to treat patients with the combination of erlotinib and temozolomide. Patients with relapsed, recurrent, refractory, or high risk malignancies whose tumors possess a non-synonymous mutation in EGFR, ERBB2, or JAK2V617F (JAK2) will be eligible for the study. Very few phase 2 clinical trials have been performed in ...

Patients with relapsed solid tumors such as sarcomas and neuroblastoma have a poor survival, generally < 20%. There is an urgent need for new treatments that are safe and effective. HSV1716, an oncolytic virus, is a mutant herpes simplex virus (HSV) type I, deleted in the RL1 gene which encodes ...

Patients are treated according to standard care. Data are documented on presentation at diagnosis, response of the tumor, findings at surgery and pathology, treatment given and outcome of the patients.

PPB is a rare cancer of the lung presenting in early childhood, mostly commonly from birth to age ~72 months. PPB occurs within the lung or between the lung and the chest wall. There are three primary forms of PPB called Types I, II, and III PPB. PPB is related ...

This is a multi-center, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled crossover study to evaluate the effect of soy isoflavones on the short term untoward effects of myelosuppressive chemotherapy used to treat pediatric cancers. Newly diagnosed cancer patients aged 1-21 years will be registered to the study and informed consent will be obtained ...

OBJECTIVES: - Determine the response rate in children with Wilms' tumor treated with pre-operative chemotherapy. - Compare the response rate in children with intermediate-risk stage II or III Wilms' tumor treated with or without doxorubicin after surgery. - Determine the prognostic significance of histological subtypes in these patients after pre-operative ...

Magnetic Resonance (MR)-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is an innovative technique that allows for non-invasive thermal ablation of tissue. Advantages over conventional local tumor control such as surgery, radiation, or radiofrequency are that MR-HIFU is completely non-invasive, non-ionizing, and enables ablation of large tumor volumes with avoidance of adjacent ...

Data collection will occur at each disease reevaluation, during which time the conversation will be audio-recorded and data will be abstracted from the medical record. Additionally, 2 surveys will be completed at specific time points by both the oncologist and the parent. Lastly, interviews will be offered to both the ...
