This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer that is prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive and has spread despite treatment with another androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI). This study is testing an investigational drug called AAA817. "Investigational" means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In this study, participants will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to receive AAA817 alone, AAA817 with an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI), or standard of care treatment. The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether AAA817, given alone or in combination with an ARPI, is safe and effective compared to standard of care treatments. This drug is given to participants as a radioligand therapy infusion. Participants in this study can expect to be in the study for up to 6.1 years, including two visits before starting treatment, visits every 4 weeks during treatment, and visits every 12 weeks during long-term follow-up for up to 5 years after treatment ends.. There will be a total of 9 patients enrolled locally.
This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with squamous cell, adenocarcinoma, or adenosquamous cervical cancer. This study is testing an investigational drug called pembrolizumab. "Investigational" means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). A computer will be used to assign you to one of the study groups. This process is called "randomization." Like flipping a coin, everyone has an equal chance of being placed in any group. The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether induction immunotherapy (IO) and chemotherapy prior to concurrent chemoradiotherapy plus immunotherapy (CCRT+IO) improves progression-free survival (PFS) compared to CCRT+IO alone. The study drug is given by infusion. Participants in this study can expect to be on the study for 7 years.
This study is for participants with symptoms of mast cell activation (SMAC). The primary purpose of this study is to learn about clonal mast cell diseases. Clonal mast cell diseases are hard to diagnose because symptoms are not specific, and they can overlap with other diseases. The tools currently used by doctors to look for clonal mast cell diseases in the blood may not identify all patients. This study is being done to develop an investigational blood test that looks for a change in a gene called KIT. "Investigational" means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Two types of blood tests will be compared against each other. Participants in this study can expect to be in this study for about 6 months.
This is a Phase 3 randomized study to compare two new drug combinations of teclistamab with daratumumab and lenalidomide and talquetamab with daratumumab and lenalidomide versus standard of care in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are either ineligible or not intended for autologous stem cell transplant as initial therapy. The study is expected to continue for approximately 9 years.The Medical University plans to enroll 12 participants. The duration of participation will depend on the response of the study treatment. Subjects will receive treatment weekly or every 2 weeks. Medical history and physical examination, including lab tests like blood work and imaging, as well as questionnaires will be completed. Known risks include Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) as a complication that can happen due to the activation of immune cells.
The Caris Biorepository is collecting quality biospecimens, which can be any material that comes from human tissue, to bank for the purposes of future research studies related to advancing precision medicine and improving patient care. Select biospecimens may be collected from consenting individuals who have, or do not have cancer, are being screened for, or have an increased risk for a certain type of cancer. Samples may be used for research on: cells that make up your body (DNA and RNA) and how those cells and other cells work in healthy people and people with illness; how biomarkers might be able to predict the best treatments for a particular tumor type or blood finding; biomarker testing to discover and refine new technology; or, new discoveries and new biomarkers that can predict disease.

This study is testing whether adding a new drug, casdatifan, to cabozantinib works better than cabozantinib alone in adults with advanced kidney cancer (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) that has gotten worse after previous immunotherapy. It will compare the two treatments in patients around the world to see which is more effective. A total of 8 patients will be enrolled locally over the course of 26 months, and participants may be in the study for up to five years. Before joining, patients will complete a screening process with tests and assessments to determine eligibility. If eligible, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: casdatifan plus cabozantinib or placebo plus cabozantinib. There is a 2 in 3 chance of being in the casdatifan group and a 1 in 3 chance of being in the placebo group. Both drugs are taken by mouth in pill form each day. During the study, patients will have assessments such as blood tests, imaging scans, heart monitoring, physical exams, biopsies, questionnaires, and a drug diary. Participants will visit the study site two times each 28-day cycle for the first two cycles, then once per cycle thereafter. The most important risks include low blood counts, low oxygen levels, fatigue, gastrointestinal problems, skin reactions, high blood pressure, weight loss, voice changes, and bleeding.
