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.

Cu 64 specifically targets the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) that is found on the surface of metastatic prostate cancer cells. Increased image contrast may make it easier for the doctor to see smaller lesions compared to other imaging agents.

The purpose of this study is to see if sacituzumab govitecan in combination with pembrolizumab can improve outcomes and delay the return of disease in participants with high-risk early Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) when compared to pembrolizumab alone or pembrolizumab in combination with capecitabine. Participants with low tumor expression of the estrogen and/or progesterone receptors (1 to 10%) will also be included in this study. The study treatment will be chosen by chance—like flipping a coin. There is a 1 out of 2 chances to receive Sacituzumab govitecan in combination with Pembrolizumab and 1 out of 2 chances to receive a study treatment of study doctor’s choice of either pembrolizumab alone or pembrolizumab in combination with capecitabine. Participants and their study doctor will know what study drug is being taken.

A Phase II Clinical Trial to Study the Efficacy and Safety of Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) and Pembrolizumab in Combination with Other Investigational Agents in Subjects with High-risk Non-muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) Unresponsive to Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) Therapy
This trial will evaluate other treatment options for high-risk NMIBC patients who were unresponsive to Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG therapy). We are studying two different drugs in combination with pembrolizumab. Participants will receive up to 35 doses of the trial drug and have tumor assessments for about 2 years. This will be followed by treatment tumor assessment for another 3 years for a total trial duration of 5 years.
