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 tests the use of the oncolytic virus BI1831169 (VSV-GP) as an immunotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors. This trial is the first-in-human trial to test the safety and early efficacy of BI1831169 by itself (Part 1) and in combination with the PD-1 inhibitor ezabenlimab (Part 2).

The purpose of this research study is to further evaluate the safety and effectiveness of selinexor for maintenance in patients with TP53 wild-type endometrial cancer.

The trial offers women with ductal cell carcinoma in situ (DCIS) 6 months of neoadjuvant exposure to endocrine therapy with the intent of determining their suitability for long-term active surveillance without surgery.

This study is for people who have been diagnosed with cancer that is advanced (means disease has spread from the original site or has come back) or is metastatic (means the disease has spread to other parts of the body). FOG-001 is currently being developed to treat people with cancer. We want see how safe and tolerable FOG-001 is when given alone and together with other anticancer drugs at different dose levels in participants. We also want to see how FOG-001 affects the body and the cancer

The investigational therapy in this study is referred to as Restorative Microbiota Therapy (RMT). It is prepared by extracting healthy bacteria from the stool of healthy human donors and making it into capsules taken by mouth. The donor stool samples are rigorously tested for harmful bacteria and viruses before processing. There is scientific evidence to suggest that RMT might make immunotherapy more effective. The primary goal of the study is to test if RMT makes durvalumab + tremelimumab treatment with chemotherapy more effective to control lung cancer.

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.

The purpose of this research is to measure the safety and effectiveness of ivonescimab compared to pembrolizumab. Ivonescimab is an antibody designed to block proteins that help cancer cells grow and spread, and by blocking these proteins may potentially slow cancer progression. Participants will have a 50% chance of being assigned to either the ivonescimab treatment group or the pembrolizumab treatment group.

This study is being conducted to compare the efficacy of subcutaneous amivantamab plus lazertinib in previously untreated EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer OR subcutaneous amivantamab plus chemotherapy after having received prior therapy for EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer.

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.

The purpose of this study is to help investigators learn more about what are the best methods for diagnosing and monitoring lung problems.

This study will enroll people who receive TRX103 as part of a separate research study, in order to monitor these patients for long-term safety, and discover more about the long-term effects of TRX103.

The research aspect of this trial is the use of a new machine to remove specific lymphocytes from the donor’s peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs). This is called T cell receptor alpha/beta T cell depletion. This machine does such a good job at removing the unwanted donor T cells, and as a result we think patients will need fewer drugs to suppress their immune system.

This clinical study is for adults whose cancer has spread to the bones of the middle or lower back (spine). Doctors are comparing two common treatments: (1) a needle procedure to treat the tumor and strengthen the bone, followed by radiation, and (2) radiation therapy alone. The goal is to see which option better relieves pain, protects the spine, and improves quality of life. The treatment you receive will be chosen at random (by chance), meaning you will be placed into a study group by chance.

Finding liver cancer early is important to increase chances of getting treatment and decreasing risk of dying from cancer. The purpose of this research is to compare the effectiveness of two liver cancer screening methods to detect liver cancer at an early stage. Participants will be randomly (by chance) placed in one of two study groups – one group will undergo ultrasound imaging of the liver with or without a blood test to measure a specific protein, whereas the second group will undergo a blood test for liver cancer screening called a GALAD score. The GALAD score combines three blood tests to screen for liver cancer. We do not currently know if GALAD would help detect liver cancer earlier than standard screening.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of FT825 at different doses and to understand the way the body processes and responds to FT825. The study will also find out what effects FT825, when given with or without a monoclonal antibody (cetuximab) and different chemotherapy regimens, have on cancer. FT825 is a type of cell product made up of “T cells.” T cells are part of your immune system and are important in helping fight infections. T cells are also important in eliminating cancer cells.

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.

The primary purpose of this study is to see how well the 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA PET/CT scan can find prostate cancer that has come back, based on expert review.

A Phase I/II trial of single agent intravenous CBL0137 in pediatric patients (≥ 12 months and ≤ 30 years) with relapsed/refractory solid tumors, including CNS tumors and lymphoma.

This trial is testing MK-5684 in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) previously treated with next-generation Hormonal Agent (NHA) and Taxane-based chemotherapy. This trial will compare MK-5684 to abiraterone acetate and enzalutamide. Abiraterone acetate and enzalutamide are standard treatments for mCRPC. The purpose of this trial is to test the safety of the trial drug, MK-5684, see how well the drug works, and see how the body handles the drug. We also want to see if participants who get MK-5684 live longer compared to those who get abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide.

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.

This study is testing an “investigational” drug referred to as peptide alarm therapy (PAT) that was specially made for this study. PAT is using the peptide to stimulate the immune system for people who have failed prior treatment with a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor. Examples of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are pembrolizumab (Keytruda), nivolumab (Opdivo), cemiplimab (Libtayo), atezolizumab (Tecentriq), avelumab (Bavencio), and durvalumab (Imfinzi). The goal of the 1st part of the study is to identify an acceptable, safe dose of PAT and up to 3 dose levels of PAT will be tested. If dose level 3 is reached without toxicity, it becomes the dose used for the next part of the study. In the 2nd part of the study, additional patients are treated at the PAT dose identified as safe in the 1st part to gain additional safety information and provide an initial estimate of anti-cancer effect.

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 is to test how well the investigational study drug, quizartinib, works in patients with AML without a FLT3-ITD mutation who have not received any prior treatment for the disease. The study will test how it works when taken with standard chemotherapy and then taken alone to prevent the disease from coming back.

The purpose of this research is to compare the effects of nivolumab with vusolimogene oderparepvec (VO) against standard of care treatment drug(s) currently available for patients with advanced melanoma. We expect that taking part in this research will last up to 60 months.

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.

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

The purpose of this research is to collect information about the safety and tolerability of the study drug ACE-232, along with how well it works to control metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the investigational combination of drug called loncastuximab tesirine in combination with another anti-cancer agent is a safe and effective treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.

The overall goal of this phase 3 non-inferiority study is to assess if selumetinib works as well as the standard treatment using carboplatin and vincristine (called CV) for subjects with low-grade glioma (LGG).
