Tegavivint for the Treatment of Solid Tumors, Lymphomas & Desmoids

This study has two parts. Part A enrolls patients who have been diagnosed with a solid tumor, lymphoma or desmoid tumor that has either come back ("relapsed") or does not respond to therapy ("is refractory"). Part B enrolls patients with a relapsed or refractory Ewing sarcoma, desmoid tumor, osteosarcoma, liver tumor, Wilms tumor, or tumors with changes in a gene family known as the Wnt pathway. This study involves taking a study drug called tegavivint. The study will be testing different doses of the study drug to find the safest dose.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Desmoid tumors , Ewing sarcoma, Hepatoblastoma (liver cancer), Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in Children, Osteosarcoma (bone cancer in children), Wilms Tumor (Kidney Tumor)

Tiragolumab and Atezolizumab in SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 Deficient Tumors

This study enrolls patients that have been diagnosed with SMARCB1 or SMARCB4 deficient cancer that has either come back (relapsed) or does not respond to therapy (is refractory) or have been newly diagnosed with a SMARCB1 or SMARCB4 deficient cancer that has no known standard treatment. This study involves taking study drugs called tiragolumab and atezolizumab. These drugs are a type of immunotherapy that try to make the immune system fight cancer. The purpose of the study is to learn more about the safety of tiragolumab in children and to see how well the combination of tiragolumab and atezolizumab works when given to children and adults with these types of tumors. This study has two parts. In Part A, participants will receive tiragolumab. In Part B, participants will receive both tiragolumab and atezolizumab.
