This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of imetelstat in combination with fludarabine and cytarabine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Imetelstat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving imetelstat in combination with fludarabine and cytarabine may work better in treating patients with refractory or recurrent AML, MDS, and JMML.

This study is designed to determine whether BSB-1001 - a product made of genetically modified cells - is safe and possibly effective when given to patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML), Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL), or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) who are also receiving a stem cell transplant with a matched donor.

The main purpose of this study is to see how safe and tolerable CNP-103 is for people with type 1 diabetes. CNP-103 is a nanoparticle (a tiny particle) containing special beta cell proteins. In each group of adults and teens, participants will be assigned by chance (like flipping a coin) to receive either CNP-103 or placebo (like CNP-103 but contains salt water). Participants will have a 66% chance of receiving CNP-103 and a 33% chance of receiving placebo. The total duration of participation from the first Screening visit until the last assessment is approximately 208 days.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of glofitamab, a novel cluster of differentiation (CD) 20/CD3 bispecific antibody, in combination with polatuzumab vedotin plus rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (Pola‑R‑CHP) versus Pola‑R‑CHP in patients with previously untreated CD20-positive large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL).

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

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 purpose of this study is to compare the effects of talquetamab in combination with teclistamab (Tal-Tec), the effects of talquetamab in combination with pomalidomide (Tal-P), and the effects of either the combination of elotuzumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone (EPd) or pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (PVd) in treating patients with multiple myeloma, who have not responded to previous treatment.

We’re studying disitamab vedotin to find out what its side effects are and if it works for urothelial cancer when given with pembrolizumab. We want to see if these drugs work better together than the available approved treatments.

The purpose of this research study is to see whether an experimental drug, PUL-042 Inhalation Solution (PUL-042), is effective in reducing the severity of lung infections in patients with hematologic malignancies and recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with viral infections due to PIV, hMPV, or RSV. Participants will receive PUL-042 or a placebo (an inactive agent that appears identical to PUL-042) through a nebulizer. This is a machine that uses a small motor to turn liquid into a mist, like a humidifier, so you can breathe the drug into your lungs. Participants will receive the experimental drug, PUL-042, or a placebo 3 times over a 6-day period.

This study is meant for participants who have been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and have a specific mutation in a gene called TP53. The study will give these participants an investigational drug called bortezomib in combination with an approved drug for AML, CPX-351 (brand name: Vyxeos). The researchers are studying this combination to find out if it is safe to give to people, as well as to find out how well it works for people who have AML with the TP53 mutation.

Disruption of estrogen signaling by drugs called selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs) is one of the treatment options for patients with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) cancers. Imlunestrant is a SERD that disrupts estrogen signaling, and therefore should stop or slow down tumor growth in ER+ cancers. This study will help answer research questions about the safety of imlunestrant and any side effects, and how imlunestrant compares to standard-of-care endocrine therapy.

We will enroll healthy pregnant women (following enrollment, all subsequent study procedures will be completed postpartum) or postpartum women on hormonal birth control or no hormonal birth control with either a recent history of smoking and a desire to remain abstinent after childbirth, or who are currently smoking and motivated to quit smoking. Participants will be recruited throughout the continental United States (US). Participants living in Minnesota (our clinical site) will receive a 12-week course of exogenous progesterone. Participants will be followed for six months with remote visits, self-administered surveys, and self-collection of dried blood spots to measure hormones and smoking-related biomarkers.

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.

The usual approach for patients who are not in a study is treatment of ovarian cancer with surgery, radiation, or U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs. Sometimes, combinations of these treatments are used. We are doing this study because we want to find out if the use of Olaparib for one year is as good or worse than the usual approach for ovarian tumor.

The purpose of this research study is to learn if sacituzumab govitecan (also called SG or Trodelvy®) can improve lifespan and delay the growth or spread of the disease in participants with endometrial cancer when compared to chemotherapy (doxorubicin or paclitaxel).

The purpose of this study is to find out if the drug letrozole is better or worse than not receiving treatment (called observation) following surgery for your type of cancer. Letrozole could prevent your cancer from returning but the cancer could grow while on treatment. There is currently no definitive data to support the use of Letrozole treatment for early stage Leiomyosarcoma. Letrozole has already been FDA-approved to treat other cancers, but it is investigational in this research.

This study aims to reduce the radiotherapy (RT) dose necessary to successfully treat patients with intracranial germ cell tumors who are in a state of complete response (CR) following chemotherapy. In this study, a further reduction in whole ventricular irradiation (WVI) will be tested. The primary aim of the study is to determine whether 12 Gy of WVI, and 12 Gy tumor boost, would be successful. Event-free survival (EFS) in patients with central nervous system germinoma, who meet criteria for CR or continued complete response (CCR) following chemotherapy/second-look surgery, would be the primary measurement of success.

We want to see if we can lower the chance of bladder cancer growing or spreading by using a type of chemotherapy instilled in the bladder, Gemcitabine and Docetaxel. The usual approach for patients who are not in a study is treatment with Transurethral surgery of bladder tumor (TURBT) followed by instillations of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) immunotherapy into the bladder via a catheter.

This research study is for participants who have a weakened immune system (are immunocompromised), have a lower lung infection and are currently using a machine or device to help them breathe. The study will look at whether the study drug, DAS181, works and how safe it is compared with a placebo in adults who have a weakened immune system (immunocompromised) and a parainfluenza virus (PIV) infection of the lower respiratory tract. A placebo looks the same as the study drug but does not contain any active ingredients.

In this study, we want to find out more about secondhand smoke from shisha smoking in the home. We want to help families learn more about the risks of shisha smoke in the home and find ways to stop smoking at home.

A study to test a medicine (fitusiran) injected under the skin for preventing bleeding episodes in male adolescent or adult participants with severe Hemophilia.

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.

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 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.
