A Randomized Double Blind Phase II Trial of Restorative Microbiota Therapy (RMT) or Placebo in Combination with Durvalumab (MEDI4736) and Tremelimumab With Chemotherapy in Treatment Naïve Advanced or Metastatic Adenocarcinoma Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

OptimICE-PCR: De-Escalation of Therapy in Early-Stage TNBC Patients Who Achieve pCR After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy with Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy
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.

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.

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.

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.
