A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Rezafungin for Injection Versus the Standard Antimicrobial Regimen to Prevent Invasive Fungal Diseases in Adults Undergoing Allogeneic Blood and Marrow Transplantation (The ReSPECT Study) (ReSPECT)
One type of infection that is possible after bone marrow transplant is called an invasive fungal disease (IFD), a type of fungal infection that has the ability to spread throughout the body. In this study, rezafungin will be compared with the currently approved drugs for the prevention of IFD. The currently approved drugs are referred to as the standard antimicrobial regimen (SAR) which is posaconazole or fluconazole. We want to learn if rezafungin is safe and tolerable, if it is effective in preventing IFD compared to the standard treatment and to find out how much rezafungin is in blood over time after study drug has been given.

Colorectal Cancer Metastatic dMMR/MSI-H Immuno-Therapy (COMMIT) Study: A Randomized Phase III Study of mFOLFOX6/Bevacizumab/Atezolizumab Combination Versus Single Agent Atezolizumab in the First-Line Treatment of Patients With Deficient DNA Mismatch Repair (dMMR)/Microsatellite Instability-High (MSI-H) Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
We are studying how well combination chemotherapy, bevacizumab, and/or atezolizumab work in treating people with deficient deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mismatch repair colorectal cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and leucovorin calcium, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Bevacizumab may stop or slow colorectal cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving combination chemotherapy, bevacizumab, and atezolizumab may work better in treating patients with colorectal cancer.

Amblyopia Treatment Study (ATS23): A Randomized Trial of Dichoptic Treatment for Amblyopia in Children 4 to 7 Years of Age (ATS23)
Amblyopia (sometimes called 'lazy eye') is reduced vision in one eye caused by abnormal visual development early in life. The weaker (or 'lazy') eye often wanders inward and outward. Amblyopia is the leading cause of reduced vision in children and can lead to blindness if not treated. Treatments for amblyopia are glasses, and if needed, further treatment with part-time patching or penalization with atropine eye drops. Patching or atropine are administered to the stronger eye to force the child to use the weaker (amblyopic) eye. In recent years, an alternative type of therapy has emerged. It is called dichoptic treatment and involves stimulating both eyes simultaneously but with different stimuli. When it was first introduced, it was done in an office-based setting. Home-based technologies utilizing games and movies have been developed and studied to a limited extent in younger children with amblyopia. In this study, we will use a system called Luminopia. It uses a virtual reality headset to view web-based videos in which the contrast of the image seen by the stronger eye is reduced by 15% from that of the weaker eye. Luminopia has been available for use in the U.S. since 2022 and has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of amblyopia in this age group. In a previous large randomized trial, home-based dichoptic movies were shown to be superior to glasses alone but treatment effectiveness compared to patching (the gold standard for treating amblyopia) has not yet been established. If dichoptic therapy using the Luminopia system is confirmed to be at least as effective as patching, it would be an appealing alternative for treating amblyopia in young children, as it shows promise of better adherence and an easier treatment experience for the parent and the child. Children in this study would be randomized 1:1 to either the Patching Group or the Luminopia Group and followed for at least 6 months. Children in the Patching Group will have the option to do the Luminopia treatment after 6 months of patching. They will be followed for an additional 6 months. Thus, their participation will last for a total of 1 year.

ANBL2131/MT2024-35- A Phase 3 Study of Dinutuximab Added to Intensive Multimodal Therapy for Children with Newly Diagnosed High-Risk Neuroblastoma
This phase III trial tests how well adding dinutuximab to induction chemotherapy along with standard of care surgery radiation and stem cell transplantation works for treating children with newly diagnosed high risk neuroblastoma. Dinutuximab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to a molecule called GD2, which is found in greater than normal amounts on some types of cancer cells. This helps cells of the immune system kill the cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs such as cyclophosphamide, topotecan, cisplatin, etoposide, vincristine, dexrazoxane, doxorubicin, temozolomide, irinotecan and isotretinoin, 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. During induction, chemotherapy and surgery are used to kill and remove as much tumor as possible. During consolidation, very high doses of chemotherapy are given to kill any remaining cancer cells. This chemotherapy also destroys healthy bone marrow, where blood cells are made. A stem cell transplant is a procedure that helps the body make new healthy blood cells to replace the blood cells that may have been harmed by the cancer and/or chemotherapy. Radiation therapy is also given to the site where the cancer originated (primary site) and to any other areas that are still active at the end of induction.

This phase II trial tests the safety and best dose of revumenib when given together with chemotherapy, and how well the treatment regimen works for infants and young children with leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) and is associated with a KMT2A (MLL) gene rearrangement (KMT2A-R). Revumenib is an oral medicine that directly targets the changes that occur in a cell with a KMT2A rearrangement and has been shown to specifically kill these leukemia cells in test tubes and animals. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vincristine, prednisone, asparaginase, 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. This trial is being done to find out if the combination of revumenib and chemotherapy may help to treat the cancer cells better than either treatment alone.
• Age: Patients must be 1 month to less than 6 years old at the time of study enrollment and must have had initial diagnosis of leukemia less than 2 years old.
• Diagnosis: Patients must have KMT2A-rearranged acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage (ALAL), or mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL), which is determined to be refractory or in first marrow relapse.
• Disease status: First relapse, refractory or failure to achieve remission
• See link to clinicaltrials.gov for complete inclusion and exclusion criteria
• Patients with isolated extramedullary leukemia.
• Patients diagnosed with Down syndrome.
Phase II Multi-Institutional Study of Low-Dose (2Gy x 2) Palliative Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Symptomatic Bone metastases from Multiple Myeloma
There is no consensus on the radiation dose required to relieve the pain from bone lesions from multiple myeloma. Usually, patients receive between 10 and 12 radiation treatments to achieve pain relief. But a shorter course of radiotherapy may be more effective. This study will evaluate whether pain relief can be achieved using only 1 or 2 radiation treatments, which will be delivered to a painful bone lesion. Your study doctor will decide whether you receive 1 or 2 treatments. The total amount of radiation you will receive will be the same whether it is done in one or two treatment sessions.
• diagnosis of multiple myeloma
• painful bone metastasis that has been confirmed by a xray
• may have had any number of prior chemotherapy/immunotherapy regimens
• at least able to walk and do all selfcare but may be unable to carry out any work activities; up and about more than 50% of waking hours
• see link to clinicaltrials.gov for additional requirements
• received prior radiation therapy or prior palliative surgery to the bone lesion that is causing pain
• pathologic fracture or impending fracture at the area of the bone lesion causing pain
• women who are pregnant
• additional criteria apply (study staff will review)
A PHASE 2 STUDY OF ALISERTIB IN COMBINATION WITH ENDOCRINE THERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH HR+, HER2-NEGATIVE RECURRENT OR METASTATIC BREAST CANCER (ALISCA-Breast1)
The purpose of this study is to see if the study drug, called alisertib, in combination with an ‘endocrine therapy’ such as anastrozole, letrozole, exemestane, tamoxifen or fulvestrant can help people with HR+, HER2-negative recurrent or metastatic breast cancer. The study will also look at how well people tolerate treatment with alisertib in combination with one of the endocrine therapies that are commonly used in clinical practice.
• diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the breast that has reoccurred of spread to other areas of the body (metastatic)
• treatment with at least two prior lines of endocrine therapy in the recurrent or metastatic setting
• see link to clinicaltrials.gov for complete inclusion criteria
• treatment with chemotherapy in the recurrent or metastatic setting
• see link to clinicaltrials.gov for complete exclusion criteria
