The objective of this study is to examine the association between cannabis and/or cannabinoid use and cancer-related symptoms assessed monthly for one year in adults newly diagnosed with breast, colorectal, melanoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or non-small cell lung cancer who are planning or recently started to receive one or more systemic cancer directed therapies with chemotherapy and/or immune check point inhibitors (ICIs) targeting PD-1, PD-L1 or CTLA-4. Participants complete surveys and have their medical records reviewed on study.

This trial compares the effect of pembrolizumab to observation for the treatment of patients with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer who had a complete response after preoperative chemotherapy in combination with pembrolizumab. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This trial may help researchers determine if observation will result in the same risk of cancer coming back as pembrolizumab after surgery.

FT536 is a type of cell product made up of “natural killer” or NK cells. NK cells are a type of immune blood cell that are known to attack cancer cells. FT536 is produced by growing cells that come from a healthy human donor. The primary purpose of this study is to identify a safe dose of FT536 cells when given alone (monotherapy).

The purpose of this study is to describe current knowledge and opinions about anal cancer screening among men who have sex with men (MSM), as well as their experience receiving guideline-compliant care aimed at anal cancer risk reduction using a large-scale survey disseminated via social media.

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 clinical research study is being conducted to gain knowledge about a new drug called BAY 2927088 for a type of cancer called advanced non-small cell lung cancer, which cannot be removed with surgery or has spread to other parts of the body, and has a mutation in the HER2 gene.

This study aims to find out if investigational new drugs, TSC-204-A0201, TSC-204- A0702 and TSC-200-A0201, can help your cancer better than the standard of care (SOC) that are currently available and accepted by medical experts as a proper treatment. T-cells are part of the immune system and develop from stem cells in the bone marrow. They help protect the body from infection and fight cancer. For this study, T-cells will be collected through a process called leukapheresis. T-cells from your leukapheresis will be used to make the study drugs specifically tailored for you and your immune system. The purpose of the study is to learn if the study drugs are safe and effective in treating your type of cancer.

We are studying the use of pembrolizumab to treat people who have stage IV non-squamous, non-small cell lung cancer. Pembrolizumab may help the body’s own immune system attack cancer so tumor cells cannot grow and spread. We are looking at when it is most effective to give the pembrolizumab and when to combine it with other anticancer drugs, pemetrexed and carboplatin.

This is study to determine if a new drug, camizestrant, improves outcomes compared to usual adjuvant endocrine therapy for people who have ER+/HER2- early breast cancer with intermediate-high or high risk for disease recurrence. People who have completed initial therapy (with or without chemotherapy) are eligible for the trial. Treatment is planned to continue for 7 years.

We are looking at the addition of nivolumab to chemotherapy compared to usual treatment (chemotherapy alone) for the treatment of anal cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Immunotherapy, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells. Giving nivolumab with chemotherapy may help doctors find out if the treatment is better or the same as the usual approach.

This study uses different drug combinations to treat women who have endometrial cancer that has come back or has not responded to treatment. The drugs have different ways of stopping the growth of tumor cells and we are looking to see if different combinations are more effective.

This study will help to identify challenges and barriers to self-performing anal cancer screening tests, and may identify unique ways to make this form of screening easier, more cost-effective, and more frequently performed. We believe that it has the potential to minimize the frequency of both disease and death from anal cancer among high-risk patient groups.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of iptacopan at a dose of 200 mg twice a day for 52 weeks in patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS).

This study is being conducted to determine the safest and most effective dose of TORL-1-23 in treating advanced platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

This study is intended to find the safest dose of a new combination of drugs (ALX148 and T-DXd) and to start to determine how effective it is at treating advanced or metastatic breast cancer. This study is an addition to the ongoing ISPY study program.

We are looking for participants who have tics. We would like to measure your tics before, during and after a course of Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) .

The goal of this study is to better understand how drinking alcohol may lead to oral cancers. Acetaldehyde, a chemical formed when the body breaks down alcohol, is believed to play an important role. This study will measure acetaldehyde and DNA damage levels in the mouth of participants after a low dose of alcohol. The levels will be compared between three groups, all having different degrees of risk for developing oral cancer, and with non-drinkers to identify DNA damage that might be important to cancer formation. We also want to understand how alcohol can affect the bacteria in our mouths and how that might impact oral DNA damage.

The main purpose of this the study is to find out if a new investigational drug RYZ101 more effectively treats your cancer than the standard therapy, and to see if it is safe, tolerable, and to learn the pharmacokinetics (PK).

This study is trying a new treatment (Xaluritamig) for men whose prostate cancer returned after the first treatment, but has not spread. The objective is to determine if Xaluritamig is safe and works well without causing negative side effects seen in other treatments. Participants will get Xaluritamig through a vein in their arm over six times with doctors observing for side effects and to see how the cancer reacts.

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 first-in-human study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of TORL-1-23 in patients with advanced cancer.

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.

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.

This study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ADRX-0405 in people with advanced cancer and determine the optimal dose for treatment.

This study is being done to learn more about the safety and effectiveness of ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) against extensive stage small cell lung cancer.

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.

This is a research study designed to test how well a new medication (xaluritamig) works compared to other treatments for people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. These patients have already been treated with a certain chemotherapy. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: xaluritamig or either cabazitaxel (existing cancer treatment) or another treatment chosen by the doctor. The goal of the study is to find out which treatment is more effective and safer for patients.

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 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.

This study is being done to learn more about the efficacy and safety of LN-145 in participants with metastatic stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
