The information is updated to the best of our knowledge but might not reflect the latest information. Note that most studies are only available at a limited number of sites, please click on ‘further information’ for details. Studies, particularly early phase trials, may also temporarily close to enrolment or not have slots available for all treatment groups. In all cases, study teams at individual C17 centres will have the most up-to-date information.

Study Description

 

This is a phase 2 study designed to evaluate the safety of a drug called Lutathera in patients 12 to <18 years old with GEP-NET and PPGL disease. For patients on the study, this drug will be infused 4 times at 8-week intervals. After the infusions are complete, a follow-up period will take place after the last dose for each patient who received at least one dose of Lutathera.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Patients must have a diagnosis of GEP-NET or PPGL that has gotten worse or can not be operated on
  • Patients must be between 12 to <18 years old at the time of enrollment
  • Patients must be up and about for over half of their waking hours
  • Patients and their families (as applicable) must agree to sign the written informed consent forms outlined by the study team

Other inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply and will be discussed with you by the study team.

Study Description

(from https://forpatients.roche.com/en/trials/cancer/solid-tumors/tumor-agnostic-precision-immuno-oncology-and-somatic-ta-50851.html)

This clinical trial is recruiting people who have advanced solid tumors that cannot be surgically removed. You (or your child) must have had genetic testing on the solid tumors that shows a positive result for one of the genetic changes, also known as biomarkers, being tested in this trial.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the effects, good or bad, of different targeted therapies and immunotherapies in patients with solid tumors that cannot be surgically removed and show specific biomarkers.

To be able to take part in this clinical trial, you (or your child) must have been diagnosed with solid tumors that cannot be surgically removed and show one of the specific biomarkers that are being tested in this study:

  • ROS1 fusion-positive tumors
  • NTRK1/2/3 fusion-positive tumors
  • TMB-high tumors
  • ALK fusion-positive
  • AKT1/2/3 mutant-positive tumors
  • HER2 mutant-positive tumors
  • PIK3CA multiple mutant-positive tumors
  • BRAF class II mutant or fusion-positive tumors
  • BRAF class III mutant-positive tumors
  • RET fusion-positive tumors

Your doctor will be able to give you more information on the type of biomarker your solid tumors show. You must be otherwise in good health to take part. You will not be able to take part if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you have received any recent treatment for your cancer. Some of the groups may have other specific requirements. Your doctor will be able to give you more information on this.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Less than 18 years of age for cohort E and K
  • Age between 12 and 17 years for cohorts E, F and H
  • Diagnosis of advanced cancer that has spread to a different part of the body (metastasized) and can’t be removed by an operation (unresectable)
  • Participants must be up and about at least 50% of their waking hours
  • The cancer must have a specific genetic change in one of the following genes: ROS1, NTRK1/2/3, AKT, PIK3CA, HER2, BRAF, RET, or be TMB-high

Multiple other inclusion and exclusion criteria could apply and will be reviewed by your treating team

Study Description

In this study, researchers want to find out if

  • they can improve treatment for participants with newly diagnosed diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumour (DAWT). In hopes of finding a better therapy to fight against the cancer, participants will be given chemotherapy drugs and radiation therapy in this study. The chemotherapy drugs that participants will be receiving are often given to fight against cancer and together, the treatment is known as Regimen UH-3. This study looks at how well Regimen UH-3 works when given to children and young adults with newly diagnosed DAWT.
  • they can improve treatment for participants with "standard risk" favourable histogy Wilms tumour (FWHT) that has come back (relapsed). In hopes of finding a better therapy to fight against the cancer, participants will be given chemotherapy drugs and radiation therapy in this study. The chemotherapy drugs that participants will be receiving are often given to fight against cancer and together, the treatment is known as Regimen UH-3. This study looks at how well Regimen UH-3 works when given to children and young adults with "standard risk" favourable histogy Wilms tumour (FWHT) that has come back (relapsed).
  • they can improve treatment for participants with "high-risk or very high-risk" favourable histogy Wilms tumour (FWHT) that has come back (relapsed). In hopes of finding a better therapy to fight against the cancer you have, participants will be given chemotherapy drugs and radiation therapy in this study. The chemotherapy drugs that participants will be receiving are often given to fight cancer and together, the regimen is known as Regimen ICE/Cyclo/Topo. This study looks at how well this regimen works when given to children and young adults with "high-risk or very high-risk" favourable histogy Wilms tumour (FWHT) that has come back (relapsed).

Drugs used in chemotherapy regimens work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

 

Inclusion Criteria
  • Age less than 30 years
  • New diagnosis of diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumour
  • OR a diagnosis of Wilms tumour at first relapse (tumour that has come back, and must have been "favourable histology" at initial diagnosis)
  • Patient must be capable of all self care - such that they are out of bed >50% of day
  • Multiple other inclusion and exclusion criteria could apply and will be reviewed by your treating team

Study Description

This trial studies how well cisplatin and combination chemotherapy works in treating children and young adults with hepatoblastoma or liver cancer after surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, fluorouracil, vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, etoposide, irinotecan, sorafenib, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy after surgery may kill more tumor cells.


Inclusion Criteria
  • Patients must be newly diagnosed with hepatic malignancies (liver cancers) such as hepatoblastoma or hepatocellular carcinoma
  • Patients must be under 30 years of age 
  • All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent
