Desmoid Tumor clinical trials at UCSF

4 in progress, 3 open to eligible people

A desmoid tumor is a rare growth that can occur in the soft tissues of the body. UCSF is studying different treatments for these tumors. One study is testing a drug called FOG-001 to see if it is safe and effective. Another trial is looking at Tegavivint to find the right dose with minimum side effects.

Showing trials for

  • FOG-001 in Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if FOG-001 is safe and effective in participants with locally advanced or metastatic cancer.

  • Tegavivint for the Treatment of Recurrent or Refractory Solid Tumors, Including Lymphomas and Desmoid Tumors

    open to eligible people ages 12 months to 30 years

    This phase I/II trial evaluates the highest safe dose, side effects, and possible benefits of tegavivint in treating patients with solid tumors that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Tegavivint interferes with the binding of beta-catenin to TBL1, which may help stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the signals passed from one molecule to another inside a cell that tell a cell to grow.

  • Project: Every Child for Younger Patients With Cancer

    open to eligible people ages up to 25 years

    This study gathers health information for the Project: Every Child for younger patients with cancer. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.

  • New Drug, Nirogacestat, for Treating Desmoid Tumors That Cannot be Removed by Surgery

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well nirogacestat works in treating patients less than 18 years of age with desmoid tumors that has grown after at least one form of treatment by mouth or in the vein that cannot be removed by surgery. Nirogacestat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
