Description:
Desmoid tumor is a benign neoplasm with an unpredictable course and a high rate of local recurrence if treated surgically. Therefore, over time the surgical approach has become conservative, preferring simple observation or medical therapy in case of disease progression through the use of hormonal therapy and low-dose chemotherapy. Since this neoplasm remains benign, our study aims to avoid chemotherapy in patients usually young through the use of a minimally invasive treatment such as cryotherapy.

Ages:
ICMJE 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult)
Description:
Around 3,300 people are diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma (STS) each year in the UK, and a significant proportion of STS diagnoses are in people aged under 30 years. STS can arise from various tissue types and is comprised of over 50 tumour types. Although STS is treated with a combination of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the prognosis is relatively poor with a five-year survival rate of 54%. There is an unmet need for further treatment modalities in STS. High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive way of treating cancers with minimal side effects, low complication rate and quick recovery. Ultrasound waves are used to destroy tumour cells and improvements in technology and experience are enabling complete destruction of tumour. HIFU also releases tumour antigens, increasing the immune response against cancer. HIFU has received FDA approvals for several indications, including bone metastases and we are using a CE-approved HIFU device in Oxford (UKCA-appr

Ages:

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-linke

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, tar

Sexes Eligible for Study: All
Ages:
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 is

Ages:
ICMJE 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult)
Description:
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. Pazopanib is an inhibitor of multi-target tyrosine kinase, in oral form, with selective type receptors -1, -2 and -3 of VEGF receptors on the PDG

Description:
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/nonresponse

This is an open-label Phase 1 dose escalation study of OMP-54F28 in subjects with a solid tumor for which there is no remaining standard curative therapy. Subjects will be assessed for safety, immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics, biomarkers, and efficacy. No formal interim analyses will be performed. Prior to enrollment, subjects will undergo screening to determine study eligibility. Upon enrollment, subjects will receive OMP-54F28 until disease progression. All subjects will receive Vitamin D3 daily and calcium carbonate twice daily from Day 0 through 30 days following the discontinuation of OMP-54F28. Dose escalation will be conducted to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Subjects will be dosed at 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, and 10 mg/kg administered IV once every 3 weeks. No dose escalation or reduction will be allowed within a dose cohort. Intermediate doses (i.e., doses between the dose levels listed above) may also be tested upon agreement with the investigators and the study sponso.

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 a

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 p

Description:
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disease affecting chromosome 17. It is manifested by a neurogenic tumor proliferation that forms cutaneous, subcutaneous or deep neurofibromas. Neurofibromas can cause functional discomfort, neurogenic pain that is difficult to treat, and severe cosmetic disorders. Treatment is essentially surgical. It is sometimes a heavy invasive surgery with complicated postoperative follow-up and significant scarring on the aesthetic level. Currently, no systemic treatment has proven its effectiveness in this pathology. Percutaneous cryotherapy is a cold thermoablation procedure using fine 17 G needles introduced into the lesion after targeting by imaging. This technique is used in the treatment of soft tissue tumors and desmoid tumors. The treatment of neurofibromas with percutaneous cryotherapy is not well known. Encouraging results (unpublished) have been observed in patients with NF1 treated with cryotherapy at the Léon Bé
