Summary

This study involves research, and participation is voluntary. The purpose of the study is to see if a single dose and multiple doses of the study drug, AV 380, are safe and tolerated in cancer participants. This study will also help to look at how AV 380 behaves inside the human body (called pharmacokinetics), how the body responds to AV 380 (called pharmacodynamics), and how the immune system responds to AV 380 (called immunogenicity) when administered along with the standard anticancer treatment that a participant would usually receive if they were not in this study. First, the participant will have some tests to decide if it is safe for to join the study. These tests include blood and urine sampling, electrocardiogram, vital sign measurement, physical examination, cachexia assessment,which checks changes in proteins that affect appetite and computed tomography (CT) scan. If the study doctor thinks a participant is eligible to join, they will be assigned to one of 5 cohorts (a group of people with shared characteristics) (corresponding to 5 dose levels of AV 380) in which then they will receive AV 380 together with the Standard of Care treatment chemotherapy. Participants will need to visit the study site approximately every 1 week for the first 8 weeks and then every 2 weeks. In addition to the above-mentioned tests, then they will be also asked to have exercise tests and complete questionnaires during the study. Participants will also have post study treatment follow up visits 3 times after completion or discontinuation of AV 380. The total duration of the study is up to 7 months (including follow-up visits). Some reasonably foreseeable risks or discomforts with this study include chills, headache, and elevations in an enzyme called creatine phosphokinase which is found mainly in the heart, brain, and skeletal muscle. There is no direct benefit with participating in this study, but the information we get from this study will us improve treatment for people in the future.

Summary

This research is all about investigating a potential treatment for a specific type of advanced lung cancer. The cancer cells have a protein called c-Met that's acting a bit too excited, driving the cancer to spread and resist treatment. This study focuses on two treatments: one is called Telisotuzumab Vedotin (ABBV-399), which is a smart combination of an antibody and a drug that can stop this protein's activity. The other treatment is called Docetaxel. The researchers have already found in smaller studies that Telisotuzumab Vedotin could be promising for this type of cancer, especially in patients whose previous treatments didn't work well. Now they want to see if it can really make a difference in the long run. They'll be comparing Telisotuzumab Vedotin and Docetaxel to figure out which one is better at helping patients live longer without their cancer getting worse. In this study, participants will be randomly divided into two groups, like flipping a coin. One group will get a new medicine called telisotuzumab vedotin through a vein in their arm every two weeks. The other group will receive a treatment called docetaxel through a vein every three weeks. People in both groups will keep getting their assigned treatment until their doctors say it's time to stop based on certain criteria. Throughout the study, participants will have scans like X-rays or MRIs to see how their tumors are doing. These scans will happen at the beginning and then every few weeks for the first year, and less often as time goes on.Even if someone stops their treatment for a reason other than their cancer getting worse on these scans, the researchers will keep track of them until their cancer gets worse or until they decide they don't want to be in the study anymore.The whole study is expected to last around 38 months, which is a little over 3 years. They'll keep following up with the participants, either by talking to them, checking their medical records, or other appropriate methods, until the participants decide to leave the study or pass away. This study is a big step towards finding better options for people battling this tough form of lung cancer.

Summary

This study is enrolling subjects with advanced solid tumors with the TP53 Y220C alteration in cancer cells. This alteration is a mutation of the tumor that can be found through laboratory tests that use a sample of tissue, blood, or other fluids to check for signs of cancer. This study involves research testing the safety, best dose, side effects and timing of the study drug called PC1486. You will take the study drug, PC14586, in the form of a tablet. If assigned to the combination treatment arm (Part 1), you will also be given pembrolizumab as an intravenous (IV) infusion. Pembrolizumab is a type of immunotherapy that is FDA approved to treat your kind of cancer. The study drug PC1486 is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This study drug targets the TP53 Y220C genetic alteration in tumor cells. During the pre-screening portion, participants will provide either archived tissue or a fresh tumor sample to test for the genetic alteration. If the participants show the genetic tumor alteration in the cancer cells, they may be asked to participate in the trial. Treatment arms are groups or subgroups of participants in a clinical trial. This study will have two arms: one studies PC1486 alone and the second arm studies PC1486 in combination with Pembrolizumab against advanced solid tumors. PC14586 is a small molecule (chemical) that is designed to act on the genetic alteration TP53 Y220C in cancer cells to slow the growth of cancer, and it is taken orally. This study involves blood tests, a possible tumor biopsy, CT, and MRI scans. The study will last approximately 6 months of treatment, followed up by a check-up after the first 3 weeks and every 3 months after. Some common risks (observed in greater than 20% of people) include: Nausea, Vomiting, Abnormal liver tests, Abnormal kidney test (possible kidney damage
