About this study
The goal of this study is to build on the experience of the SAINT trial by evaluating the safety and efficacy of the addition of pazopanib to their published chemotherapy regimen.
Read the detailed description
Primary Objectives:
- To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/ recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Pazopanib in combination with Trabectedin, Ipilimumab and Nivolumab.
- To determine the safety and tolerance of Pazopanib when given in conjunction with Trabectedin, Ipilimumab and Nivolumab in pediatric and young adult patients with Recurrent STS.
Secondary Objective:
- To observe and record disease response (anti-tumor activity). Although the clinical benefit of the combination (Pazopanib when given in conjunction with Trabectedin, Ipilimumab and Nivolumab) has not yet been established, the intent of offering this treatment is to provide a possible therapeutic benefit, and thus the patient will be carefully monitored for tumor response and symptom relief. Outcomes for disease response include Best OverallResponse (BOR), Duration of Response (DOR), and Progression-Free Survival (PFS) will be analyzed.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Pazopanib, Trabectedin and Ipilimumab in people with Soft Tissue Sarcomas, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Brandon D Brown, MD ((713) 563-9478, bdbrown4@mdanderson.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Safety and Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: Through study completion; an average of 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Aug 2026.
