Experimental Treatment
Group I: CABOZANTINIB WITH TOPOTECAN-CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDEExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Participants will be accrued to dose levels in cohorts of 3 using the 3 + 3 design with a combination of cabozantinib, topotecan and cyclophosphamide. Each study treatment cycle lasts 21 days. Participants may receive up to 17 cycles. Participants will be assigned a specific dose and schedule of the study drugs determined when enrolled in the study.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Has Cabozantinib been granted the regulatory blessing of the FDA?

"The lack of data regarding cabozantinib's safety and efficacy led our team to assign it a score of 1."

Answered by AI

What is the sample size for this trial?

"This study is no longer enrolling patients. The trial, posted on December 23rd 2020 and last edited July 5th 2022, has concluded its recruitment process. Those searching for other clinical trials may be interested in the 502 studies actively recruiting those with refractory Ewing sarcoma or 1052 studies involving Cabozantinib that are currently seeking participants."

Answered by AI

Is it possible to become a participant in this clinical investigation?

"This clinical trial is presently accepting applications from 6 to 30 year-olds suffering from refractory ewing sarcoma. Additional requirements include the ability to swallow intact pills and having a Body Surface Area (BSA) between 1.25m2 - 2m2; those with BSA below or above these values are ineligible for enrollment, as it would either result in too great of a deviation or an inability to provide sufficient dose escalation/de-escalation respectively. Furthermore, participants must not have progressed on topotecan/cyclophosphamide combination therapy and osteosarcoma patients must be classified as high grade lesions"

Answered by AI

Are individuals currently enrolling in this experiment?

"At present, the investigation detailed on clinicaltrials.gov is not actively looking for participants; however, it was initially advertised in December 2020 and last updated in July 2022. Despite this study's lack of availability, there are 1554 other medical trials presently searching for volunteers."

Answered by AI

What pathologies has Cabozantinib been traditionally employed to combat?

"Cabozantinib is employed to manage multiple sclerosis, but it also has efficacy in treating leukemia, myelocytic sarcoma and other malignancies."

Answered by AI

Does this trial accommodate participants aged 45 or older?

"Individuals who are between 6 and 30 years old can take part in this research."

Answered by AI

What supplementary research has been conducted on the efficacy of Cabozantinib?

"Presently, Cabozantinib is the focus of 1052 clinical trials worldwide. Of these studies, 200 are in their 3rd phase and most are conducted in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with 39308 sites hosting trials globally."
