MT2023-05: GTB-3650 (anti-CD16/IL-15/anti-CD33) Tri-Specific Killer Engager (TriKE®) for the Treatment of High Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) and Refractory/Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
The primary purpose of this study is to identify a safe dose of GTB-3650. The study also provides preliminary disease response information for larger future studies. GTB-3650 is designed to target CD33 on leukemia/MDS cells. Cancer cells must overexpress CD33 (also referred to as CD33+), a marker found in some blood/bone marrow cancers. Based on similar studies and lab studies, it is felt there is a chance of benefit from the study treatment but the duration of benefit is unknown.

A Phase 3, Multicenter, Open-label Study to Test the Diagnostic Performance of Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T PET/CT in Staging of Men with Newly Diagnosed Unfavorable Intermediate-risk, High-risk or Very High-risk Prostate Cancer Electing to Undergo Radical Prostatectomy with Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection (Solar-Stage)
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T in detecting lesions during a PET scan.

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.

A Randomized Phase III, Two-Arm Trial of Paclitaxel/Carboplatin/Maintenance Letrozole Versus Letrozole Monotherapy in Patients with Stage II-IV, Primary Low-Grade Serous Carcinoma of the Ovary or Peritoneum
The purpose of this study is to compare the treatment of carboplatin/paclitaxel and letrozole hormonal therapy to letrozole alone. Letrozole is a drug called an aromatase inhibitor, which indirectly stops the body from producing estrogen. The use of the hormonal therapy drug, letrozole without chemotherapy may shrink or stabilize your cancer in the same way that chemotherapy also does, but without the added side effects of chemotherapy. Half of women in this study will receive letrozole with paclitaxel/carboplatin and the other half will receive letrozole alone.

The goal of this current study is to test whether men with prostate cancer that is getting worse after treatment with hormone therapy and abiraterone respond better to alternating treatment with testosterone and enzalutamide vs. enzalutamide alone. We are testing to see which is better at stopping tumor growth that can be seen on a bone scan or CT scan and the effect of each regimen on lowering Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA values).

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Robotic versus Open Radical Hysterectomy for Cervical Cancer (ROCC trial) (ROCC)
This study is to investigate if robotic assisted laparoscopy (small incision surgery), is worse than open surgery (otherwise known as a laparotomy) when performing a radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. Previous research has been done and shown that patients receiving laparoscopy had an increased risk of recurrence of their cervical cancer. But since that time a lot has been learned and improvements have been made, hence why we are relooking at the differences between the two surgical approaches.

COG AALL2121: A Phase 2 study of SNDX-5613 in combination with chemotherapy for patients with relapsed or refractory KMT2A-rearranged infant leukemia
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.

A Phase III, Multicentre, Randomised, Double-Blind Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Emactuzumab vs. Placebo in Subjects with Tenosynovial Giant Cell Tumour (TANGENT)
We are conducting research on a new drug called emactuzumab. Emactuzumab is a new type of monoclonal antibody. An antibody is a protein produced by the body’s immune system to detect harmful substances. A monoclonal antibody is an artificially created protein that acts like a human antibody. Each antibody is specific for a single substance. Emactuzumab antibodies are aimed at blocking a type of protein called “CSF-1 receptors” from being able to work and to stop a tumor from growing. We will also examine how long this response will last, the impact on movement and quality of life. We will also examine whether participants need surgery during treatment with emactuzumab. In this study, we will also examine the safety of emactuzumab.
