Official title Study on Trabectedin in Advanced Rearranged Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04305548

What this study is testing

What is Trabectedin?

Trabectedin is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for mesenchymal chondrosarcoma.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Prospective, uncontrolled, investigator-initiated, phase II clinical study to explore the activity of trabectedin in a population of patients aged ≥16 years with progressive, advanced (locally advanced or metastatic)
