NCT06268457
Desmoid fibromatoses are rare (1-2 cases/million per year) and locally aggressive mesenchymal tumors. For asymptomatic disease, current guidelines suggest an initial period of active surveillance. The current scientific evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of the treatment of desmoid fibromatosis by arterial embolization is constituted by several retrospective and prospective studies. Embolization of desmoid tumors alone, without chemotherapy, on the contrary, has been shown to be inefficient. Using Doxorubicin in desmoid fibromatosis is effective but associated with systemic toxicity. Consequently, this drug is reserved for symptomatic, nonresponsive, rapidly growing or life-threatening tumors. The intrinsic hypervascularity of desmoid tissue can be exploited as a conduit to achieve local distribution of Doxorubicin by navigation of a catheter endovascular.
NCT07170644
This study is being conducted to characterize the efficacy and safety of nirogacestat in Japanese adults with progressing desmoid tumors/aggressive fibromatosis.
NCT05919264

NCT07461246
RIPAF (Rete Italiana Poliposi Adenomatosa Familiare) is a national, multicenter observational registry designed to establish a coordinated Italian network for the management of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) and related adenomatous polyposis syndromes. The registry includes patients with APC-related FAP (classic and attenuated forms), MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP), and adenomatous polyposis not associated with APC or MUTYH mutations (NAMP), including cases linked to other susceptibility genes or without identified pathogenic variants. The study combines retrospective and prospective data collection across 28 Italian centers. Its primary purpose is to generate standardized, large-scale clinical data to better characterize disease presentation and evolution, evaluate current surveillance and surgical strategies, and assess oncological outcomes and quality-of-care indicators in real-world practice. The registry will collect detailed information on genotype-phenotype correlations, colorectal and upper gastrointestinal cancer incidence, desmoid tumor development, timing and type of prophylactic surgery, postoperative outcomes, and long-term survival. Additional objectives include evaluating adherence to surveillance guidelines, timing of genetic diagnosis, and preventive surgical uptake among at-risk relatives. By harmonizing data collection and promoting collaboration among referral centers, RIPAF aims to reduce variability in clinical management across Italy, improve risk stratification and decision-making, and create a national platform to support future multicenter research initiatives and international collaborations in hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes.
NCT04851119
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.
NCT04871282
The current study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AL102 in patients with progressive desmoid tumors.
NCT06945887
Desmoid fibromatoses are rare and locally aggressive mesenchymal tumors. The current scientific evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of the treatment of desmoid fibromatosis by arterial embolization is constituted by several retrospective and prospective studies. These studies report promising results through the use of chemoembolization, that is, arterial embolization using particles loaded with chemotherapy. Instead, the type of treatment we propose would consist of injection of embolizing material without the use of chemotherapy, based on the positive results we have consistently reported over the years on arterial embolization of musculoskeletal tumors.
NCT05091255
Desmoid tumor is a benign neoplasm with an unpredictable course and a high rate of local recurrence if treated surgically. Therefore, over time the surgical approach has become conservative, preferring simple observation or medical therapy in case of disease progression through the use of hormonal therapy and low-dose chemotherapy. Since this neoplasm remains benign, our study aims to avoid chemotherapy in patients usually young through the use of a minimally invasive treatment such as cryotherapy.
NCT04281381
The purpose of this study is to closely observe people with desmoid-type fibromatosis over 1 months.

NCT06224283
Desmoid tumors (DT) are uncommon tumors that arise from musculoaponeurotic structures. Despite benign, they can cause pain and disability due to their tendency to be locally aggressive. Cryoablation, a technique used in interventional radiology, has gained popularity in recent years as a treatment option for sporadic DT. This involves repeated cycles of freezing, leading to cell death. Recent studies showed that percutaneous image-guided cryoablation appears to be safe and effective for local control for patients with extra-abdominal desmoid tumors.Although changes in the heterogeneity of tumors are commonly known, they are often ignored in response criteria that only evaluate tumor size in a single dimension, such as Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1). Nevertheless, MRI can reveal early changes in tumor heterogeneity in responding tumors, resulting from a reduction in cellular area and an increase in fibro-necrotic content, before any dimensional changes occur. These changes in heterogeneity can be quantified using a radiomics approach. The aim of this study is to develop radiomics response criteria dedicated to the evaluation of DT treated with cryoablation as a first line treatment and to compare their performance with those of alternative radiologic response criteria for predicting progression according to RECIST 1.1.
NCT02076906
The purpose of this study is to determine if Magnetic Resonance guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound ablative therapy is safe and feasible for children, adolescents, and young adults with refractory or relapsed solid tumors.
NCT01981551
Background: * Desmoid tumors (also known as aggressive fibromatosis), are rare, locally invasive, slow-growing soft-tissue tumors. The disease can be either asymptomatic or be associated with severe loss of organ function and significant morbidity. * Treatment with the selective small-molecule Gamma-secretase inhibitor PF-03084014 caused significant tumor shrinkage in patients with unresectable desmoid tumors in an early phase clinical trial. * The Notch pathway is a key regulator of cell differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis; aberrant signaling via the Notch pathway is associated with carcinogenesis. Objectives: * Primary: Determine the response rate (Complete Response (CR)+Partial Response (PR)) of PF-03084014 in patients with desmoid tumors/aggressive fibromatosis * Secondary: Assess symptom measures at baseline and on study; perform genotyping for germline and somatic mutations in adenomatous polyposis coli gene (APC) and catenin-beta 1 (CTNNB1) genes; correlate clinical response to therapy with genotyping data; and assess modulation of the Notch pathway by evaluating notch response genes in tumor biopsies at baseline and after drug administration Eligibility: * Age greater than or equal to18; histologically confirmed desmoid tumor not amenable to curative resection or definitive radiation therapy that has progressed after receiving at least one line of standard treatment; adequate organ function * Willingness to provide blood samples and 10 unstained slides or a tumor block for genetic research studies Study Design: * This is an open-label Phase II trial of PF-03084014; study drug will be administered orally at 150 mg twice a day in 21-day cycles * Optional tumor biopsies for research purposes will be performed at baseline prior to study treatment and at the beginning of cycle 7 (+/- one cycle) * Restaging scans (magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with diffusion weighting) will be performed at baseline, at the end of cycles 1 and 6, and then every 6 cycles * Health-related quality of life (HRQOL)/symptom questionnaires will be administered at baseline and at each Clinical Center visit
NCT06195085
This study aimed to explore the long-term outcomes of CT-guided radioactive iodine-125 (I-125) seed implantation (RISI) for recurrent desmoid tumor. A multicenter retrospective study reviewed 38 recurrent desmoid tumor patients receiving RISI from July 2013 to July 2021.The clinical outcomes including overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), local control time (LCT), overall survival (OS), adverse events (AEs), and symptom relief rate were statistically assessed.
NCT06113094
Desmoid tumors, also called aggressive fibromatosis, are rare, locally invasive tumors with no potential for metastasis. The incidence is approximately 2 to 4 per million per year in the general population. The "watch and wait" policy is the standard of care for newly diagnosed patients in Europe. Patients who progress have first-line medical treatment, surgery is no longer the treatment because there is a high rate of recurrence (\> 60%) and radiotherapy is not very suitable because the patients are often young and the tumors are large. Cryoablation seems to be an effective therapeutic option that should be evaluated.
NCT00928525
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Imatinib Mesylate is active in diseases - such as Desmoid Tumor and Chondrosarcoma - expressing the receptor for the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) both in its isoform alpha and beta
NCT00919269
The purpose of this study is to collect and store tumor tissue, blood, and bone marrow samples from patients with soft tissue sarcoma that will be tested in the laboratory. Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue, blood, and bone marrow from patients to test in the laboratory may help the study of cancer.
NCT04289077
Rationale: Desmoid-type fibromatosis (DTF) is a rare, histologically benign, soft tissue tumour. Although incapable of metastasizing, the clinical course is unpredictable and can be aggressive because of local invasive growth. Various treatments are available including; surgical resection, radiotherapy, hormonal therapy and chemotherapy. Nowadays there is a trend towards a more conservative strategy with a wait and see policy because of high recurrence rates after surgical resection. Health-related quality of life (HRQL) is a corner stone in treatment choice and can be used during the disease for monitoring the impact of the disease on physical, psychological and social level. Additionally, HRQL can be in important endpoint for future clinical trials. Today, no HRQL-tools are available which capture the needs of DTF patients. The hypothesis is that patients with DTF have issues on several HRQL domains including physical, social and emotional well-being. For this reason we developed a list of items based on previous research. This study aims to evaluate HRQL issues experienced by DTF patients. Purpose: Multi-centre, cross-sectional, observational study to measure HRQL of DTF patients and to evaluate the prevalence of the experienced problems.
