Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug in patients with sarcoma, specifically those with myxoid liposarcoma or other sarcomas with similar chromosomal translocations to Ewing sarcoma. The trial will also test a combination of seclidemstat with topotecan and cyclophosphamide in patients with Ewing sarcoma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients aged 12 and older, weighing at least 40 kg, with specific sarcomas including Ewing or related types that are relapsed/refractory to prior treatments. Participants must have good performance status, adequate organ function, and a life expectancy over four months. They should not have had certain recent treatments or uncontrolled illnesses.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests Seclidemstat alone in select sarcoma patients and in combination with Topotecan and Cyclophosphamide for those with Ewing sarcoma. It's an open-label study where all participants receive the drugs without being compared to a placebo or other treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions from the immune system affecting various organs, blood disorders due to bone marrow suppression by chemotherapy agents like Cyclophosphamide, digestive issues from both chemo drugs, fatigue from overall treatment burden.
