This study is for people with advanced biliary tract cancer (cancer of the bile ducts or gallbladder) that cannot be removed with surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. Participants must have previously received one standard chemotherapy treatment for advanced disease. Researchers are studying an investigational medication called nanvuranlat to see if it is safe and effective for treating advanced biliary tract cancer. The study will compare nanvuranlat with standard treatment to learn how well it works, monitor its safety, and better understand how it affects the body and the cancer.

This study will test GTB-5550, a B7H3-targeted natural killer (NK) cell engager, for the treatment of select solid tumor cancers. The study will determine the optimal dose level and evaluate preliminary safety and efficacy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how TAK-505 works in people with certain advanced solid tumors, including stomach, colorectal, lung, and head and neck cancers. The study will test TAK-505 at different dose levels to understand how it is tolerated, how it behaves in the body, and to help determine the dose that provides the best balance of effect and side effects for future studies.

This study is about treatment of Melanoma (a kind of skin cancer) that has spread or cannot be surgically removed and has gotten worse after standard treatments. This study includes patients with melanoma from any part of the body except the eye. The main purpose of this study is to learn if the study medicine (tebentafusp), alone or a combination with pembrolizumab, helps patients with advanced melanoma live longer. The combination of pembrolizumab and tebentafusp used in this study is experimental.

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.

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.

The purpose of this study is to compare two treatment approaches for people with amyloidosis: daratumumab, cyclophosphamide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (Dara-VCD) chemotherapy followed by an autologous stem cell transplant versus Dara-VCD followed by daratumumab maintenance therapy without a stem cell transplant.

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.

The primary purpose of this study is to gain information, especially disease free outcomes, using the tandem approach as compared to the historical information of using a single transplant. The data will be analyzed for transplant “milestones” such as time to blood count recovery and how patients are doing at 3 months and 1 year after the treatment. Participation in this study will not alter treatment or medical care. All information for this study will be collected from medical records.

The purpose of this research study is to see whether an experimental drug, PUL-042 Inhalation Solution (PUL-042), is effective in reducing the severity of lung infections in patients with hematologic malignancies and recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with viral infections due to PIV, hMPV, or RSV. Participants will receive PUL-042 or a placebo (an inactive agent that appears identical to PUL-042) through a nebulizer. This is a machine that uses a small motor to turn liquid into a mist, like a humidifier, so you can breathe the drug into your lungs. Participants will receive the experimental drug, PUL-042, or a placebo 3 times over a 6-day period.

This study is testing an investigational drug called XmAb541 for people with advanced solid tumors that test positive for a protein called CLDN6. XmAb541 is a type of immunotherapy designed to help the body's immune system recognize and attack cancer cells. The first part of the study will test different doses of XmAb541 to determine a safe and appropriate dose for future research. Once a recommended dose is identified, additional participants will receive that dose in the second part of the study. Researchers will evaluate the safety of XmAb541, how the body responds to the treatment, and whether it shows signs of helping to control or shrink cancer.

We want to find out whether lifileucel is safe and works in treating untreated, unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Lifileucel is a type of medicine, known as immunotherapy, that uses your body’s immune system to fight cancer. Lifileucel is also called “tumor infiltrating lymphocytes” (TIL) and is made up of specialized white blood cells known as lymphocytes or “T cells” obtained from a piece of your tumor. T cells are a part of your immune system that help your body fight against infections and diseases including fight cancer.

This study is being done to test whether IMGN151, given alone or in combination with approved cancer treatments, is safe, well tolerated, and effective for treating ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Researchers will also study how the body responds to and processes IMGN151 when given at different doses.

The purpose of this study is to test a new CAR T-cell therapy called AZD0120 in adults with multiple myeloma that has returned or has not responded to previous treatments. Researchers want to learn whether this therapy is safe, determine the best dose to use, and see how well it works against the cancer. The study will also look at how the treatment affects the immune system and participants’ quality of life.

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.

CGD disorders are a group of diseases that cause the immune system to function abnormally, leading to infections, autoimmunity and/or inflammation that can begin early in life. CGD is usually caused by changes in certain genes in DNA. Researchers are trying to learn what types of medical problems patients with CGD have and how these respond to treatment, including bone marrow transplantation and gene therapy. Researchers also want to learn which genes cause CGD and how specific gene abnormalities lead to medical problems.

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 overall goal of this study is to determine if treating first relapse B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) with a combination of blinatumomab and nivolumab is more effective than blinatumomab alone.

This trial will evaluate whether azirkitug (ABBV-514) as monotherapy and in combination with budigalimab (ABBV-181) or bevacizumab is safe and tolerable for people with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

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 purpose of this study is to assess whether JNJ-87189401 given in combination with pasritamig (JNJ-78278343) to men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (also known as mCRPC) can cause side effects, and to find doses for the two drugs when given in combination. Side effects are unexpected or unwanted reactions from receiving the study drugs. Additionally, the study will look at how long JNJ-87189401 and pasritamig stay in the body, how they act on the body, and how the body responds to them.

This study is testing a stem cell (bone marrow) transplant for people with certain blood disorders. The goal is to find a treatment approach that is effective while causing fewer side effects. Participants will receive treatment to prepare their body, followed by a transplant using stem cells from a donor. After the transplant, they will receive medications to help prevent complications.

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.

Participants who take part in this study will receive a study drug called ruxolitinib with a standard drug called nivolumab. The study is being done to measure the percentage of tumor (lymphoma) that shrinks after receiving ruxolitinib in combination with nivolumab. This study will also measure the length of time the lymphoma is inactive and how safe the combination is to administer to participants. Ruxolitinib is a pill that is taken twice every day. Nivolumab is given as an infusion in the clinic once every 4 weeks.

This phase Ib/II trial evaluates the safety, optimal dose, and efficacy of the combination of epcoritamab and ibrutinib in treating patients with aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or responded to previous treatment (refractory).

The purpose of this study is to understand if a new immune treatment (pasritamig) added to best supportive care (including radiation, steroids, pain medication, or medications to strengthen your bones) for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer will work better than the best supportive care alone for patients without other treatment options.

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.

The main goal of this study is to see if it's safe for people to take xaluritamig together with either darolutamide or abiraterone.

This study is being done to test if GSK5733584, the study drug, can improve cancer, is safe, well-tolerated, works and helps to treat cancer, how the body reacts to and how the body uses the study drug at different doses.
