18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult)Description:
Rationale: Desmoid- type fibromatosis (DTF) is a rare, histologically benign, soft tissue tumour . Although incapable of metastasizing, the clinical course is unpredictable and can be aggressive because of local invasive growth. Various treatments are available including; surgical resection, radiotherapy, hormonal therapy and chemotherapy. Nowadays there is a trend towards a more conservative strategy with a wait and see policy because of high recurrence rates after surgical resection. Health-related quality of life (HRQL) is a corner stone in treatment choice and can be used during the disease for monitoring the impact of the disease on physical, psychological and social level. Additionally, HRQL can be in important endpoint for future clinical trials. Today, no HRQL-tools are available which capture the needs of DTF patients. The hypothesis is that patients with DTF have issues on several HRQL domains including physical, social and emotional well-being. For this reason we developed aMore Details

ICMJE up to 29 Years (Child, Adult)Description:
Desmoid- type fibromatosis (or desmoid tumor ) represents an intermediate grade neoplasm with a striking predilection for locally invasive growth and recurrence following resection. It occurs in children as well as young adults. As a typically localized disease, the historical standard of care for treatment has been surgical resection, with or without ionizing radiation. In some cases where surgical resection or radiation is not feasible, chemotherapy has been used. Two clinical trials conducted in the Pediatric Oncology Group (POG) and the Children's Oncology Group (COG) evaluated the role for either low intensity or non-cytotoxic chemotherapy for children with desmoid tumor that is not amenable to standard therapy. These were largely empirical treatment strategies or based on somewhat anecdotal observations. By better understanding desmoid tumor biology, even more effective therapy targeting a particular protein that is central to the disease can be developed. Desmoid tumor isMore Details

Sexes Eligible for Study: AllAges:
ICMJE 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult)Description:
Background: Some types of cancer cells that have hormone receptors on their surfaces need the hormone estrogen to grow. The drug tamoxifen blocks estrogen from binding to the tumor cells, which helps to slow or stop the growth of cancer . Tamoxifen has been approved for treatment of certain types of estrogen-linked cancers , such as breast and ovarian cancer . The experimental drug Z-Endoxifen HCl (endoxifen) is related to tamoxifen, and has been shown to work against similar estrogen-linked cancers . In many cancer patients, tamoxifen is turned into endoxifen by enzymes in the liver; however, not all people have the liver enzymes that can turn tamoxifen into endoxifen, which means that the drug cannot work properly. Taking certain other drugs at the same time as tamoxifen can also keep it from turning into endoxifen. Researchers are interested in determining whether endoxifen tablets are effective in slowing or stopping tumor growth in individuals whose hormone-linkeMore Details

ICMJE 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult)Description:
Desmoid tumors (DT) are rare tumors (2-4 cases/million/year) that originate from musculoaponeurotic structures. Although they are benign tumors with no metastatic potential, DT are considered as locally aggressive tumors , with local invasiveness and tissue destruction, leading to pain, and disability. Surgery remains the keystone of therapy, but is limited by the anatomical situation of extra-abdominal desmoid (EAD) tumors (chest wall, root members). In patients where surgery is considered, negative-margin resection (R0) is recommended, but this frequently results in cosmetic/functional impairment. Moreover, prognostic impact of R0 resections remains controversial. The outcome after initial surgery depends upon several factors such as age, tumor site, and tumor size as demonstrated by recent data from the French Sarcoma Group. Alternative therapies to DT surgery for front-line or recurrence include NSAID's, anti-estrogens alone or in combination, -interferon, chemotherapy, tarMore Details

Desmoids tumors are benign soft tissues tumors characterized by aggressiveness and potential local recurrence. There is a female predominance with a sex ratio of 2/1 and median age at diagnosis is about 30 years. Only a complete surgical excision is recommended in desmoids tumors . Some forms of desmoid tumors are recurrent and/or symptomatic and are not accessible to a conservative surgical treatment. In these clinical situations, only a medical treatment may achieve tumor control and quality of life maintenance. Place of systemic treatments in the management of desmoids tumors is poorly evaluated. Regarding chemotherapy, methotrexate and vinblastine protocol is actually the best evaluated combination, which allowed observing objective response rate between 40 and 75%. Toxicity was mainly marked by the risk of haematological toxicity.

Aggressive fibromatosis (AF, also known as desmoid tumor ) is a fibroproliferative neoplasm that typically arises in the abdomen but can develop at other anatomic sites, most commonly in the extremities. These tumors have a relatively high local failure rate after primary treatment using surgery and/or radiotherapy, and although rarely giving rise to distant metastases, can be multifocal and, therefore, not surgically resectable. Moreover, tumor may recur adjacent to the site of surgical resection, underscoring the limitations of surgery in the palliative setting. Therefore, effective medical therapies for AF are needed to maintain quality of life and prolong survival.The goal of the current study was to better define the activity of imatinib in the treatment of AF and to determine the molecular basis for response/nonresponseMore Details

This is a phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study of the clinical response to fentanyl sublingual spray as a treatment for breakthrough cancer pain. The study medication is administered under the tongue as a simple spray and can be self-administered by patients or assisted by their caregivers. Patients are titrated to an effective-dose of fentanyl sublingual spray in the open-label titration period and then proceed to the double-blind randomized period where they randomly receive 7 treatments with fentanyl sublingual spray and 3 treatments with placebo. Patients are treated for up to a total of 6-7 weeks (including both the open-label titration and the double-blind randomized periods).More Details

This is a prospective, multicenter observational study under the umbrella of the ISG (Italian Sarcoma Group) evaluating local progression-free survival at 3 years of patients affected by extra-abdominal primary fibromatosis managed with front-line conservative approach and treated only in case of demonstrated progressive disease. All patients included will be placed on wait and see approach and then shifted to treatment in case of documented radiological progressive disease. For patient primarily evaluated for suspected desmoid tumor , a core-needle biopsy (eventually under CT/ultrasound guide) will be obtained for histological diagnosis and mutational analysis of CTNNB1 exon 3 (gene encoding Beta-catenin). If incisional biopsy or surgical procedure has done elsewhere, samples will be requested for histological confirmation and mutational analysis (centralization at the investigators Institution). In case of progression at 3 months, defined as tumor growth documented radiologicallyMore Details

ICMJE 10 Years to 17 Years (Child)Description:
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause for cancer related mortality in the western world with a lifetime risk of 6%. Etiology is complex, while genetic background significantly affects the risk. Around one third of all genetic disorders as well as most cases of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) and a large proportion of all sporadic CRC cases occur as a result of premature nonsense mutations (creating a stop codon) in an individual's adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. Nonsense mutations are single-point alterations in the DNA that prematurely halt the protein translation process, producing a shortened, nonfunctional protein. In many of these cases, if the cell can be 'persuaded' to ignore the premature stop codon signal, the resulting protein may be able to ameliorate or stop the disease. Recently, members of the aminoglycoside family of antibiotics have been found to induce ribosomal read-through of nonsense mutations, leading to expression of a full length, functional pMore Details
