An Open-label, Multicenter, Multicohort, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate Enfortumab Vedotin in Subjects with Previously Treated Locally Advanced or Metastatic Malignant Solid Tumors (EV-202)
One goal of this study is to find out if enfortumab vedotin is effective and safe as a treatment for people with breast, lung, head and neck, gastric, gastroesophageal junction, or esophageal cancer. Researchers will look at how enfortumab vedotin can act in the body. Enfortumab vedotin is expected to work by attacking cells that have a protein called Nectin-4, commonly found in cancer cells. Another goal of this study is to find out if enfortumab vedotin is effective and safe when combined with another US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved medicine, pembrolizumab (brand name KEYTRUDA®), and used as a treatment for people with head and neck cancer who have not received previous chemotherapy treatment other than the chemotherapy that may have been given in combination with radiation therapy or right before or right after surgery in the past.

Evaluate the perspectives of cancer survivor patients and caregivers on using an intrathecal drug delivery system as a continuum of pain management care using a qualitative study.
Targeted medication delivery near the spinal cord (intrathecal pump) may be offered for cancer pain treatment in carefully selected patients. Prior studies showed an improved functional status reduction in oral medications and their side effects. Cancer survivors receiving intrathecal pump treatment for pain are eligible to participate in the research and share their stories. After consenting, a interview (45 minutes by zoom) will be conducted before and after the treatment to improve our understanding of patient perceptions of pain treatment with an intrathecal pump.
• cancer survivors with pain for more than 3 months duration who may benefit from intrathecal pump treatment for pain
• people who are not eligible for treatment with an intrathecal pump

PEPN2121 : A Phase 1/2 Study of Tiragolumab (NSC# 827799, IND# 161266) and Atezolizumab (NSC# 783608, IND# 161266) in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 Deficient Tumors
This phase I/II trial studies how well tiragolumab and atezolizumab works when given to children and adults with SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficient tumors that that has either come back (relapsed) or does not respond to therapy (refractory). SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficiency means that tumor cells are missing the SMARCB1 and SMARCA4 genes, which is related to having more aggressive cancers that are harder to treat. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as tiragolumab and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

MT-2018-20: COG AALL1631 - International Phase 3 Trial in Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Ph+ALL) Testing Imatinib in Combination With Two Different Cytotoxic Chemotherapy Backbones
This randomized phase III trial studies how well imatinib mesylate and combination chemotherapy work in treating patients (> 1 year and < 21 years) with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, 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 imatinib mesylate and combination chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

AOST2031: A Phase 3 Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Open vs Thoracoscopic Management of Pulmonary Metastases in Patients With Osteosarcoma
This phase III trial compares the effect of open thoracic surgery (thoracotomy) to thoracoscopic surgery (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery or VATS) in treating patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung (pulmonary metastases). Open thoracic surgery is a type of surgery done through a single larger incision (like a large cut) that goes between the ribs, opens up the chest, and removes the cancer. Thoracoscopy is a type of chest surgery where the doctor makes several small incisions and uses a small camera to help with removing the cancer.

This phase III trial aims to maintain excellent outcomes in patients with very low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (VLR-RMS) while decreasing the burden of therapy using treatment with 24 weeks of vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) and examines the use of centralized molecular risk stratification in the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma. Another aim of the study it to find out how well patients with low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (LR-RMS) respond to standard chemotherapy when patients with VLR-RMS and patients who have rhabdomyosarcoma with DNA mutations get separate treatment. Finally, this study examines the effect of therapy intensification in patients who have RMS cancer with DNA mutations to see if their outcomes can be improved.
