About This Trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or Recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Tegavivint in combination with Gemcitabine in patients with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma (OS). The study will also investigate the toxicities of Tegavivint in combination with gemcitabine in patients with relapsed or refractory OS.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 1 trials test a new treatment for the first time in humans, focusing on safety, dosing, and how the body processes the drug. For Osteosarcoma Recurrent, a Phase 1 study typically enrolls a small number of participants — often healthy volunteers or patients who have exhausted standard treatment options. Phase 1 results determine whether a treatment moves into larger Phase 2 efficacy studies.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

With a target enrollment of 24 participants, this is a small study — typical of early-phase research, rare-disease trials, or pilot studies designed to generate preliminary signal before a larger study is launched.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: Diagnosis: Participants must have had histologic verification of osteosarcoma at original diagnosis or relapse. - All participants with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma are eligible, provided they received front-line treatment with a regimen that contained at least 3 of the following agents: methotrexate, doxorubicin, cisplatin, and ifosfamide -Disease Status: - Dose Escalation: Participants must have either measurable or evaluable disease per RECIST.Note: Participants with no evidence of disease on imaging (e.g., following pulmonary metastasectomy) are not eligible during the dose escalation phase. - Dose Expansion: Participants with measurable or evaluable disease per RECIST and those with no evidence of disease on imaging following pulmonary metastasectomy are eligible during the dose expansion phase. -Performance Level: Participants must have a Lansky (≤ 16 years) or Karnofsky (\> 16 years) score of ≥ 60, or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) ≤ 2 Note: Participants who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory to assess the performance score. -Prior Therapy: Participants must have fully recovered from the clinically significant acute effects of all prior anti-cancer chemotherapy, immunotherapy, surgery, or radiation therapy before enrollment. - Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: ≥ 14 days after the last dose. - Hematopoietic growth factors: ≥ 14 days after a long-acting growth factor (e.g., pegfilgrastim) or ≥ 7 days for a short-acting growth factor. For agents with known delayed adverse events, extend recovery period accordingly. - Biologic (anti-neoplastic) agent: ≥ 7 days after the last dose. Extend period if adverse events occur beyond 7 days. - Cellular therapy: ≥ 21 days since last dose (e.g., modified T cells, gamma-delta T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, dendritic cells) with recovery from associated toxicities. ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
