This phase III trial compares durvalumab to the usual approach (patient observation) after surgery for the treatment of patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The usual approach for patients who are not in a study is to closely watch a patient's condition after surgery and to have regular visits with their doctor to watch for signs of the cancer coming back. Usually, patients do not receive further treatment unless the cancer returns. This study will help determine whether this different approach with durvalumab is better, the same, or worse than the usual approach of observation. Giving durvalumab may help patients live longer and prevent early-stage non-small cell lung cancer from coming back as compared to the usual approach.
This is a Phase 3 study. Phase 3 studies can involve testing a study drug in hundreds to thousands of people over several years. The main purpose of this study is to see if the study drug, Niraparib, works better than the comparator drug in people who have just been diagnosed with glioblastoma. The comparator drug is a type of chemotherapy commonly used to treat newly diagnosed glioblastoma.
This study includes:
• Phase 1, where subjects will take either the study drug or comparator drug. All participants will also receive radiotherapy in this phase. In this phase, there will be about 45 visits to the study center. The duration for this phase will last as long as the cancer does not get worse.
• Phase 2, where subjects will continue with the same drug given in Phase 1 without radiotherapy. In this phase there will be about 53 visits to the study center and participation in the study will last for 42 weeks.
There are four periods of the study, the screening period (last about 1 month), study treatment period (as long as desired or up to 8 months), safety follow-up period (1 month), and long-term follow up period (up to 5 years).
Some procedures in this study are blood tests, memory, speech and thinking test, ECG, tissue sample, bone marrow biopsy, and imaging test. Some risks include the cancer could get worse and there are risks associated with the study drugs (for example, low appetite, difficulty speaking, headaches, vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, etc.)
This study is for adult patients with head and neck cancer who are at risk of recurrence. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the use of Indocyanine Green (ICG) dye allows for better identification of tumor tissue during surgical procedures. Participation will include standard of care visits along with administration of ICG dye and imaging during surgery. Participation in this study will last approximately 6 weeks.
This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma to evaluate the benefits of teclistamab in combination with lenalidomide and teclistamab alone versus lenalidomide alone as maintenance therapy after autologous stem cell transplant.
The purpose of this study is to compare the usual treatment alone to the usual treatment plus dose escalated radiation. This study seeks to find if this approach is better or worse than standard of care for locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Treatment and follow up for this study may be up to 8 years. The procedures include CT or MRI scans, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Risks include stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, tiredness, muscle aches, and weight loss. You may or may not receive a direct benefit from participating in this trial, however, information learned from the trial may help other people in the future.
This study is for subjects who has been diagnosed with radioactive iodine refractory (RAIR) differentiated thyroid cancer. Subjects are expected to remain in the study for a minimum of 96 months. Drugs are FDA approved and is given in the form of Tablet to subjects. The procedures include urine protein test, CT, MRI. Risks include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, tiredness, weight loss, loss of appetite, changes in taste, redness, pain or peeling of palms and soles, High blood pressure. There is evidence that dabrafenib, trametinib and cabozantinib are effective in stabilizing and shrinking the type of cancer, we do not know which of these approaches are better at prolonging time until tumor growth. However, information learned from the trial may help other people in the future.
The purpose of the study is to help to develop a new test that may help with early colorectal cancer detection. This will be done by collecting a blood sample, a stool sample, and other sample types, and comparing the results to hopefully identify a biomarker that can detect cancer more easily than current standards.
