The purpose of this study is to see if sacituzumab govitecan in combination with pembrolizumab can improve outcomes and delay the return of disease in participants with high-risk early Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) when compared to pembrolizumab alone or pembrolizumab in combination with capecitabine. Participants with low tumor expression of the estrogen and/or progesterone receptors (1 to 10%) will also be included in this study. The study treatment will be chosen by chance—like flipping a coin. There is a 1 out of 2 chances to receive Sacituzumab govitecan in combination with Pembrolizumab and 1 out of 2 chances to receive a study treatment of study doctor’s choice of either pembrolizumab alone or pembrolizumab in combination with capecitabine. Participants and their study doctor will know what study drug is being taken.

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.

While hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is an effective therapy, as many as 25% of patients develop problems with their lungs as a result of this treatment. Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a type of lung injury after HSCT due to graft versus host disease. BO is commonly diagnosed late in patients, when lung injury is hard to treat and can be irreversible, leading to long-term lung disease or even death. The purpose of this research is to learn more about ruxolitinib as an early treatment for lung injury and BO after HSCT. Patients who are diagnosed with early lung dysfunction will be eligible for this research study.

The I-SPY2 study uses 10 years of results to help your doctor understand more about your tumor and how to classify it better. This means your doctor will have more information and might be able to offer you a new treatment that could work better than the usual treatments. We need better treatments and better ways to identify which patients will benefit most from particular treatments.

This Expanded Access Program (EAP) will enable the use of 89Zr-DFO-girentuximab with PET/CT scans to detect clear cell renal cell carcinoma in patients with kidney masses. It aims to gather real-world safety and effectiveness data and understand how PET imaging affects patient management.

This study will look at the effects of treatment combining Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for young people who have tic disorder. Participants must be 12- 21 years old and able to have an MRI. All participants will receive 10 daily sessions of CBIT, a well-established behavioral treatment that is considered to be the first treatment for tics. Participants will also be assigned randomly (by chance) to receive TMS or a sham (treatment not delivered) just before each CBIT session. The device for TMS delivers electromagnetic stimulation to a specific area of the brain with a small coil on the scalp. The effectiveness of the CBIT for the two groups, with and without the TMS, will be compared.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of administering BAFFR-CAR T cells in participants with relapsed or refractory (r/r) B- cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). We also will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/RP2D of BAFFR-CART cells.

The purpose of this research study is to investigate new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods to better detect and monitor osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) before and after treatment. ONFH causes injury to the hip joint that can lead to osteoarthritis (the breaking/wearing down of cartilage & tissues within the joint) and the eventual need for a hip replacement. It can be difficult to detect ONFH early on using current medical imaging techniques, which is when treatments may be the most effective. Furthermore, available treatments are not always effective at preventing the progression (spread or growth) of ONFH. This research may benefit others with ONFH by providing more effective medical imaging tools to detect ONFH earlier and inform treatment decisions to increase the chance of stopping or delaying the progression of ONFH and preventing hip osteoarthritis.

This study compares treatment with niraparib to temozolomide in adult participants who have newly-diagnosed, MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma.

This study will enroll patients with a blood cancer who need to undergo a stem cell (bone marrow) transplant using a donor that is not a full DNA match with them. It tests TRX103, a cellular therapy, to see if it is an effective and safe way to prevent Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD), a common and potentially serious side effect of stem cell transplant.

This study looks at the use of an implanted brain stimulator for people who have treatment resistant depression. The change in brain function by EEG and symptoms of depression will be examined. This study is open to people 22-70 years old with Medicare or Medicare Advantage insurance.

This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of EG 70, a gene therapy, which is given inside the bladder. This study will measure its effectiveness on eliminating bladder tumors in participants with NMIBC who have failed or did not receive adequate Bacillus Calmette- Guérin (BCG) therapy. The study drug will be given into the lining of the bladder. This may cause an immune response inside the bladder and kill the cancer cells.

The treatment (chemotherapy and transplant procedures) is considered standard clinical care that are usually given to the patients with this disease. The research aspect of this study is to collect data on the patients who are being treated on this plan. Patients will be followed throughout the course of their clinical care and for three years after their transplant.

The purpose of this research study is to obtain information on the safety and effectiveness of PBCAR0191 to treat certain types of cancers, such as Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. It is made from a type of blood cells known as T cells. The T cells in PBCAR0191 came from people who have donated their blood. The donated T cells have been genetically changed, so that they may be able to kill specific cancer cells commonly present in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

This study is being done to learn more about the influence of the menopausal transition on autonomic and vascular function in midlife females. Participants will have their vitals taken and height, weight and waist-to-hip ratio measurements done, complete questionnaires, have blood draws, have electrical activity of a nerve in the leg measured (optional), have blood vessel function measured in the arm, perform breathing exercises, and complete a cold pressor test (putting a hand in ice-cold water). Participants will also have a scan to measure body composition and bone density.

A clinical research study for primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), or genetic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), or focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) of undetermined cause in pediatric (12-17 years) and adult patients. Eligible participants will be assigned to receive either DMX-200 (repagermanium) or placebo (50/50 chance) over a treatment period, with total participation up to 28 month, with potential for participation in an Open Label Extension study period. The main purpose of this study is to see if DMX-200 reduces proteinuria and slows the loss of kidney function in those with FSGS.

This is a research study designed to test how well a new medication (xaluritamig) works compared to other treatments for people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. These patients have already been treated with a certain chemotherapy. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: xaluritamig or either cabazitaxel (existing cancer treatment) or another treatment chosen by the doctor. The goal of the study is to find out which treatment is more effective and safer for patients.

We want to find out whether lifileucel is safe and works in treating untreated, unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Lifileucel is a type of medicine, known as immunotherapy, that uses your body’s immune system to fight cancer. Lifileucel is also called “tumor infiltrating lymphocytes” (TIL) and is made up of specialized white blood cells known as lymphocytes or “T cells” obtained from a piece of your tumor. T cells are a part of your immune system that help your body fight against infections and diseases including fight cancer.

The primary purpose of this study is to define the recommended Phase 2 dose of AZD1390 when given in combination with radiation for pediatric supratentorial and infratentorial high-grade gliomas. The toxicities, safety profile and pharmacokinetic profile of AZD1390 in this setting will also be assessed.

Anxiety and stress are significant problems for cancer survivors. The purpose of this study is to learn what effect a 14-day course of kava can have on anxiety and stress in cancer survivors, and about the side effects of kava for cancer survivors.

The primary objective for this observational study is to collect general and medical data from children, adolescents, and young adults who had pediatric onset rheumatic disease. This data will be used to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of therapeutic agents used to treat these diseases. This information will allow investigators to accurately report and follow changes in current medication use patterns and compare these to proposed standards and current treatment recommendations. The use of a single registry will allow for more analysis of the different therapeutic agents by allowing them to be compared to each other.

The primary research element is to determine whether a graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen of post-transplant cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus and MMF will reduce the likelihood of chronic GVHD in patients receiving a standard hematopoietic myeloablative stem cell transplant. The treatment related components of this protocol are established clinical practices. We are looking at cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD requiring systemic immunosuppressive treatment at 1 year post-transplant.

Stem cell transplants (sometimes referred to as a bone marrow transplants) have been done for over 40 years but research continues to further refine the method to reduce side effects without affecting transplant success. The purpose of this study is to improve on transplant outcomes while reducing the potential side effects based on what has been learned from previous transplant studies using a reduced intensity preparative regimen. Information collected during this study (transplant outcomes and side effects) will be compared with the outcomes of the previous reduced intensity conditioning transplant study that enrolled more than 300 patients since 2002.

The purpose of this project is to provide new knowledge of the relationship between structural and functional changes in cortico-basal ganglia pathways and the severity of motor and non-motor deficits in humans with PD.

To determine the prognostic factors for visual outcome for newly diagnosed NF1-OPGs. Hypothesis: Patients (<18 years of age) with tumors involving the optic tracts and/or radiations will demonstrate worse visual outcomes compared to those without optic tract involvement.

The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of NXC-201 to treat AL amyloidosis. The people in this study have AL amyloidosis that came back or does not get better with treatment. NXC-201 is a cellular therapy made from your own white blood cells called T cells. If you join this study, we will collect some of your T cells and modify (change) them in a lab. This modification will help your T cells find and kill abnormal plasma cells. These genetically changed T cells are called chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells. NXC-201 is a CAR T cell therapy and is given intravenously (by vein). To prepare your body for NXC-201, you will also get fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, which are chemotherapy drugs. After you get NXC-201, you will be in the hospital for at least 10 days. You will then need to stay within a 2-hour travel distance of Memorial Sloan Kettering for the next 4 weeks so we can check on you.

The purpose of this study is to learn whether the use of Pregnyl with the drug ruxolitinib is able to reduce the need for high dose steroids to treat severe acute Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD).

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.

The purpose of this study is to examine a new, experimental treatment for adolescents at risk for suicide attempts called neurofeedback training. In neurofeedback training, you are trying to control your brain function on purpose. In this study, your child will see their brain activity (displayed like a thermometer). He/she will recall positive memories to try to change the levels of their brain activity shown on the visual thermometer inside a scanner.
