What this trial studies

This master protocol aims to streamline the execution of multiple clinical trials for children and young adults with cancer by providing a unified research framework. It allows for the testing of various drugs, including Ramucirumab, Cyclophosphamide, Vinorelbine, Gemcitabine, and Docetaxel, under specific research goals tailored to different cancer types. New studies can be incorporated as new treatments become available, enhancing the efficiency of cancer research. Participants will be enrolled based on their eligibility and the duration of benefit from the treatments.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include children and young adults with measurable or evaluable cancer who meet specific performance and health criteria.

Not a fit: Patients who are currently undergoing cancer treatment or have not recovered from significant side effects may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could lead to more effective treatment options for pediatric cancer patients.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies utilizing master protocols have shown promise in improving the efficiency of clinical trials, suggesting potential success for this approach.

* The participant has a Lansky (\<16 years of age) or Karnofsky (≥16 years of age) performance score of at least 50.
* Participants must have discontinued all previous treatments for cancer or investigational agents greater than or equal to (≥)7 days after the last dose and must have recovered from clinically significant side effects.
* The participant has adequate hematologic and organ function.
* Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to first dose.
* Both female and male participants of childbearing potential must agree to use highly effective contraceptive precautions during the trial and for at least 3 months following the last dose of study drug.

Participants will be ineligible if they meet any of the exclusion criteria below. Additional criteria are specified in the protocol amendment to which the participant will enroll.
