Summary
This trial aims to study the treatment of non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma in both intermediate-risk and high-risk patients. The primary objectives include assessing the survival rates and pharmacokin
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas (NRSTS), including conditions like lipoma and liposarcoma. It aims to help those at intermediate or high risk of the disease progressing, by testing new combinations of drugs and therapies after initial diagnosis.
What is being tested?
The trial tests a regimen involving ifosfamide, doxorubicin, pazopanib, surgery, radiation therapy (including proton beam), and selinexor. For intermediate-risk patients, it focuses on survival rates using these treatments plus maintenance pazopanib. High-risk patients will have the dosage of selinexor optimized in combination with other drugs.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include nausea from chemotherapy drugs like ifosfamide and doxorubicin; high blood pressure or liver issues from pazopanib; fatigue or appetite changes from selinexor; skin reactions from radiation therapy; and surgical risks such as infection.

Trial Design
6Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Low-Risk Subset BExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with high-grade tumors that are \< 5 cm with positive margins. This means that the pathologist finds cancer cells at the edge of the tissue, suggesting that all of the cancer has not been removed. These participants will have surgery followed by radiation therapy for about 5-6 weeks.
Group II: Low-Risk Subset AExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with low grade tumors of any size, or high-grade tumors \< 5 cm that have been (or are expected to be) completely removed by surgery. When the pathologist reviews the tumor specimen, the tissue around the tumor (margins) must be negative for cancer cells, meaning all of the cancer has been removed. These participants will have surgery to remove the tumor, followed by close observation. There will no further therapy after surgery, just monitoring for tumor recurrence and any side effects from surgery.
Group III: Intermediate-Risk Subset C (participants with high-grade tumors > 10 cm):Experimental Treatment5 Interventions
* After 3 cycles of induction chemotherapy, your doctor may decide to give an additional 4th cycle if he/she thinks it would be beneficial before surgery.
* You will get consolidation therapy with additional chemotherapy and radiation therapy, followed by 6 months of maintenance therapy with pazopanib. The dose of radiation that you receive will be higher if your tumor cannot be completely removed at surgery (positive margins).
Group IV: Intermediate-Risk Subset B (participants with high-grade tumors between 5 and 10 cm in sizeExperimental Treatment5 Interventions
* If your tumor is completely removed at surgery \[meaning the tissue around the tumor (margins) is negative for tumor cells\] you will continue with consolidation chemotherapy with additional chemotherapy without radiation therapy, followed by 6 months of maintenance therapy with pazopanib.
* If your tumor cannot be completely removed at surgery \[meaning the tissue around the tumor (margins) is positive for tumor cells\], you will get consolidation therapy with additional chemotherapy and radiation therapy, followed by 6 months of maintenance therapy with pazopanib.
Group V: Intermediate-Risk Subset A (participants with low grade tumors):Experimental Treatment5 Interventions
* If your tumor is completely removed at surgery \[meaning the tissue around the tumor (margins) is negative for tumor cells\], you will receive no further therapy and you will be closely observed for any signs of tumor recurrence.
* If your tumor cannot be completely removed at surgery \[meaning the tissue around the tumor (margins) is positive for tumor cells\] and the tumor is low-grade, you will get consolidation therapy with additional chemotherapy and radiation therapy, followed by 6 months of maintenance therapy with pazopanib.
Group VI: High-Risk - 2 groupsExperimental Treatment6 Interventions
* If you have a low-grade tumor that has spread to other parts of the body AND the surgeon was able to completely remove all tumors from all parts of your body, you will have no further therapy after surgery. You will be closely followed to monitor you for any signs of tumor recurrence.
* If you have a high-grade tumor OR a tumor that cannot be completely removed by surgery OR you have the CIC-DUX4 mutation, you will get consolidation chemotherapy and radiation therapy, followed by 6 months of maintenance therapy with pazopanib.
