PIOGLITAZONE-METFORMIN COMBINATION TREATMENT FOR HIGH RISK ORAL PRENEOPLASIA
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of pioglitazone and metformin on people and their risk of cancers of the head or neck.

MT2023-20: Hematopoietic cell transplant with reduced intensity conditioning and post-transplant cyclophosphamide for severe aplastic anemia and other forms of acquired bone marrow failure.
Although allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) is standard treatment for severe aplastic anemia, the use of the lower intensity conditioning drugs with a personalized dosing strategy, low dose total body irradiation (TBI) with dosing based on age and bone marrow abnormalities, and use of the drug cyclophosphamide early after transplant is a newer approach. We are studying whether this new approach is safer and more effective than our previous approach.

OptimICE-PCR: De-Escalation of Therapy in Early-Stage TNBC Patients Who Achieve pCR After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy with Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy
We are doing this study because we want to find out if observation is as good as the usual care for breast cancer. The usual approach for patients with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who receive preoperative chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab is to continue to receive FDA-approved pembrolizumab for up to 27 weeks after surgery. Participants will either get pembrolizumab for up to 27 weeks, or will not receive any treatment and will be observed for up to 27 weeks. We will continue to follow participants every 6 months for 5 years and watch for side effects or cancer coming back. After that, participants will be checked every year for a total of 10 years after the study.

MT2024-25: Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant for Patients with High Risk Hemoglobinopathies and Other Red Cell Transfusion Dependent Disorders
This study’s strategy is to take a personalized approach, using a type of donor source combined with a drug regimen specific to that source. The common risks of a transplant approach include graft failure – when the transplant does not take; graft versus host disease (GVHD) – when the transplanted donor cells attack the recipient; and a late effect of infertility. We are studying whether this new approach with conditioning regimen matched with donor source is safer and more effective than our previous approach. Additionally, we are testing whether the dose of radiation will reduce the risk of graft failure.

MT2017-17:T Cell receptor Alpha/Beta T Cell Depleted Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in patients with Inherited Bone Marrow Failure (BMF) Disorders
The purpose of this study is to learn if removing the donor T cells from the donor product using this new method will be a better way to reduce the risk of GVHD. The benefit of removing these cells with this new method is that they will prevent GVHD without requiring drugs to suppress the immune system. Potentially, the immune system will recover from the transplant faster, which in turn will also lessen the risk of severe infections. As well, the patient will not have the other common undesired side effects of these immunosuppressive drugs.

HM2025-23: Phase 3 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled Studies Assessing Ziftomenib in Combination with Either Standard of Care Nonintensive Venetoclax+Azacitidine) or Intensive (7+3) Therapy in Patients with Untreated NPM1 mutated or KMT2A Rearranged Acute Myeloid Leukemia
AML is a type of blood cancer where infection fighting cells called white blood cells (WBCs) don’t grow up or “mature” like they are supposed to. Instead, they stay stuck as infant or immature “blast” cells. This study will investigate the potential risks and benefits of adding a targeted therapy called ziftomenib to intensive therapy (7+3) OR non-intensive (Venetoclax + Azacitidine) for patients whose cancers are found to have KMT2A rearrangements or mutations in the NPM1 gene. We will also see if the use of ziftomenib as maintenance therapy following consolidation is beneficial.

MT2024-13: First-in Cancer-Type Phase I Study of FT536 for Recurrent WHO Grade 4 Astrocytoma
The upfront treatment for astrocytoma is surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. There is currently no standard therapy for when the astrocytoma has returned (recurs) or re-grows (progresses). This study uses the investigational drug FT536, a cell therapy that stimulates the immune system into action to treat astrocytoma that has returned or regrown. FT536 is a type of cell therapy made up of “natural killer” or NK cells, a type of immune blood cell that are known to attack cancer cells. The primary purpose of this study is to identify a safe dose of FT536 cells when given as an intratumoral injection and to identify the side effects of treatment with FT536. Another purpose of this study is to understand how FT536 alters the immune system in the brain and body.

An Open-Label, Pilot Clinical Trial To Test The Safety And Feasibility Of Intestinal Microbiota Transplantation In Patients Undergoing Colon Resection
We have determined that the microbes (bacteria) in the colon can play a role in causing and preventing complications of colon surgery. While the surgical bowel prep before surgery eliminates the harmful bacteria, it also eliminates the beneficial bacteria that aid wound healing. The purpose of this study is to determine if we can restore the presence of good bacteria (also known as ‘intestinal microbiota’) in the colon by transplanting them from a healthy donor.

Zymfentra (Infliximab-dyyb) REal World Cohort STudy
The goal of this study is to learn more about the safety and effectiveness of Zymfentra treatment for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis. Researchers will collect information about symptoms, treatment response, and side effects over time to better understand how Zymfentra works for people with IBD.

• starting or switching to Zymfentra treatment for inflammatory bowel disease
