Official Title: A Phase I/II Trial of the Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Receptor (IGF-1R) Antibody AMG479 (Ganitumab) in Combination With the Src Family Kinase (SFK) Inhibitor Dasatinib in Patients With Embryonal and
Brief Summary:
Background:
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of childhood. Two types are embryonal RMS (ERMS) and alveolar RMS (ARMS). Dasatinib may block over-expression of a certain enzyme. Ganitumab may block a certain growth factor, which might suppress tumor growth. This drug combination may help slow tumor growth in people with ERMS and ARMS.
Objective:
To see if dasatinib combined with ganitumab is safe and shrinks or slows the growth of tumors in people with ERMS and ARMS.
Eligibility:
People any age who have ERMS or ARMS that did not respond to previous treatment and who can swallow tablets
Design:
Participants will be screened with:
Participants will be asked to co-enroll in another protocol.
Participants will get a drug interaction handout and wallet card that show what foods and medications to avoid.
Participants will be treated in cycles. The first cycle is 35 days and the rest are 28 days. Participants will take dasatinib by mouth daily. They wil
