Study Summary

This trial is testing a combination of two drugs, Ribociclib and Everolimus, to treat patients with advanced dedifferentiated liposarcoma or leiomyosarcoma who have had at least one prior systemic therapy. The drugs will be given orally, and the trial will last until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDL) or leiomyosarcoma (LMS) who've had at least one prior systemic therapy can join this trial. They should be in good physical condition, able to take oral medication, and have measurable disease progression after their last treatment. Women must not be pregnant or nursing, and all participants must agree to use effective contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a combination of two drugs: Ribociclib taken orally for three weeks with a one-week break, and Everolimus taken continuously every day. The goal is to see how well these drugs work together against DDL and LMS by monitoring tumor response using scans at specific intervals.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include risks associated with bone marrow suppression which could lead to blood disorders, organ dysfunction due to the drug's toxicity, gastrointestinal issues affecting absorption of the drugs, heart problems including abnormal heart rhythms, and potential interactions with other medications.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How many individuals are part of this research project?

"This trial is no longer active. It was originally posted on 8/8/2017 and ended on 6/1/2022. For those interested, there are 495 other trials recruiting patients with liposarcoma and 146 studies involving Ribociclib that are still open."

Answered by AI

What are the primary purposes for which patients take Ribociclib?

"While ribociclib is frequently used to treat kidney transplants, it can also be effective in managing waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, lung cancer, and advanced carcinoid tumors."

Answered by AI

Are there other ongoing investigations into Ribociclib's effects?

"The first ever study for ribociclib was completed in 2008 at the Sheba Medical Center. In total, there have been 432 completed studies since then. As of now, there are 146 active trials recruiting patients. A large concentration these medical trials are taking place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania."

Answered by AI

What is the status of Ribociclib in regards to federal approval?

"Because there is only evidence of safety in phase 2 trials, and no efficacy data, we have given Ribociclib a score of 2."

Answered by AI

Are there any unfilled participant positions in this research?

"This trial is no longer recruiting patients. The first posting was on 8/8/2017, with the most recent edit being on 6/1/2022. 495 other trials are currently searching for liposarcoma patients and 146 different trials are looking for Ribociclib participants."
