Study Description

The study's purpose is to see if the drug, abemaciclib, is safe and effective when given with other drugs to kill cancer cells. The study is open to children and young adults with solid tumors, including neuroblastoma, that did not respond or grew during other anti-cancer treatment.

Inclusion Criteria

• Participants must be ≤ 18 years of age (Part A and B only) or < 21 years of age (Part C only)
• Must have adequate body surface area (BSA)
• Participants must have a solid tumour (excluding lymphoma) that has come back or progressed on standard therapies
• PART C ONLY: Participants with neuroblastoma that has come back or progressed on standard therapies
• Participants must be able to be up and about for at least half of their waking hours
• Participants of reproductive potential must not be pregnant within 7 days of and during the study
• Ability to swallow
• Participants and their families (as applicable) must agree to the study assessments by signing an informed consent form

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

Study Description

Testing the Combination of Two Immunotherapy Drugs (Nivolumab and Ipilimumab) in Children, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Cancers That Have an Increased Number of Genetic Changes, The 3CI Study

This study investigates the side effects of the combination of two immunotherapy medications called nivolumab and ipilimumab, and to see how well they work in treating children, adolescents and young adults with cancers that have come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) and have an increased number of genetic changes. Immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

This study is being done to help doctors learn if the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab can help children, adolescents, and young adults patients live longer.

This study will have two parts

• PART I: A tissue sample from the tumour is analysed for "tumour mutation burden" level. Patients with elevated level may be eligible for Part II.
• PART II: Patients receive receive treatment with nivolumab or nivolumab and ipilimumab.

Inclusion Criteria

• Age from 12 months to 25 years
• Patient with a cancer that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory)
• All tumours can be considered except leukemia and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma
• The tumour will be tested (part 1). It needs to to have an increased number of genetic changes for the patient to be considered for part 2
• Multiple other inclusion and exclusion criteria could apply and will be reviewed by your treating team

• Participant has a diagnosis of synovial sarcoma (SS) or myxoid/round cell liposarcoma (MRCLS)

Study Description

This research looks at how well a medicine called nirogacestat works in treating desmoid tumours or aggressive fibromatosis. At first, patients participating in the study are split into two groups randomly: one group gets nirogacestat, and the other group gets a placebo, which is a which is a substance that has no therapeutic effect and is indistinguishable from the actual drug. This part of the study is "double-blind," meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know who's getting the real medicine and who's getting the placebo. Later, when participants move to the next part of the study, called the "open-label phase," everyone gets nirogacestat. 

Inclusion Criteria

• Participants must be 18 years or older
• Must have confirmed Desmoid Tumor or Aggressive Fibromatosis that has progressed or not responded after at least one line of therapy 
• Participants must be up and about at least 50% of their daily waking hours
• Participants must meet organ function and lab criteria prior to starting on study
• Participants must sign an informed consent and agree to the study assessments and requirements

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

Study Description

This study is trying to find out if adding a new drug (pembrolizumab) to the standard treatment for soft tissue sarcoma, makes the treatment work better. Researchers will compare two groups: one group gets the standard treatment of radiation before surgery, and the other group gets pembrolizumab with radiation before surgery, plus more pembrolizumab after surgery for a year, to see which group does better.

Inclusion Criteria

• Participant must be 12 years of age or older
• Participant must have an applicable sarcoma diagnosis in their extremity (patients with skin cancer, carcinoma or low-risk prostate cancer may also be eligible)
• Participant should be able to be up and about throughout the day with minimal restriction 
• Must meet all lab and organ function requirements within 10 days of starting on study 
• Participant or parent/caregiver must be willing to sign an informed consent and agree to the study requirements 
• If participants are able to have children, they must agree to use an effective method of birth control while on study and for 120 days after the last dose of pembrolizumab. 

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