A Feasibility and Randomized Phase 2/3 Study of the VEFGR2/MET Inhibitor Cabozantinib in Combination with Cytotoxic Chemotherapy for Newly Diagnosed Osteosarcoma

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone malignancy of childhood and adolescence. Survival rates for patients with standard risk (localized, resectable primary tumors) and high-risk disease (presence of metastases, unresectable or primary pelvic tumors) are 70% and 20-30%, respectively, and have remained unchanged for several decades despite numerous attempts to augment standard therapies. Multi-targeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (MTKIs), such as cabozantinib, can target signaling pathways that are known to be altered in osteosarcoma. Several MTKIs including cabozantinib have recently shown clinical evidence of activity in prospective studies for both pediatric and adult patients with advanced osteosarcoma. Furthermore, feasibility of administering MTKIs in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy has previously been shown in patients with AML, hepatocellular carcinoma, and soft tissue sarcomas. Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone malignancy of childhood and adolescence. Survival rates for patients with standard risk (localized, resectable primary tumors) and high-risk disease (presence of metastases, unresectable or primary pelvic tumors) are 70% and 20-30%, respectively, and have remained unchanged for several decades

Disability Experiences on Campus

The purpose of this study is to identify accessibility concerns at UNC Chapel Hill and learn how physically disabled students are impacted by inaccessible spaces. Disabled students have historically faced obstacles in navigating the campus to do the same activities that able-bodies students take part in daily. By exploring the priority that the institution places on making certain buildings accessible, this study can serve as a guide for identifying further accessibility measures that must be implemented on campus.

Patient Experiences at Outpatient Diuresis Clinic

The purpose of the study is to collect and analyze survey responses from patients who visit the outpatient diuresis clinic at UNC Eastowne in order to gain insights into their perspectives and experiences. Fiscal incentives to reduce the burden of hospital admissions have fueled interest in ambulatory strategies that can better manage heart failure, including clinic-based administration of IV diuretics. Given the clinic was started in 2017, quality improvement initiatives are necessary to continue to improve its services. This study will focus on the patient and collect qualitative data.
