Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with previously untreated, locally advanced, and metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma PDAC. This study is testing two treatment regimens: NALIRIFOX (5-fluorouracil, liposomal irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and leucovorin) vs mGAP (gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, and cisplatin).
The primary purpose of this study is to see which of the two regimens is more effective in PDAC. Participants will continue on study medications if seeing clinical benefit, and can expect to be on the study for a maximum of 6 months.

A Randomized, Multicenter, Phase III Trial of Tacrolimus/Methotrexate/Ruxolitinib versus Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide/Tacrolimus/Mycophenolate Mofetil in Non-Myeloablative/Reduced Intensity Conditioning Allogeneic Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation

Summary

This phase 3 study is recruiting patients who are at risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a bone marrow transplant. This study will measure the safety and effectiveness of a prevention treatment combination called Tacrolimus/Methotrexate/Ruxolitinib compared to Standard of Care (SOC), Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide/Tacrolimus/Mycophenolate Mofetil. Ruxolitinib (Rux) is an approved treatment for GVHD. This study is divided into two parts. The first part, called the run-in phase, will investigate the best dose of Ruxolitinib. The second part of the study will compare the SOC combination therapy with the investigational combination therapy (which will include Ruxolitinib). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups (like flipping a coin). The study will enroll up to 572 patients nationwide and 5 at MUSC. The participants can expect to be involved in the study for at least 24 months. The main risk is that medical treatments often cause side effects. The most common side effects expected from the investigational combination therapy are high cholesterol, increased liver enzymes, low platelet levels, and low red blood cell counts. There is no direct benefit for them in participating in this study.

Randomized Phase II study of the Addition of Targeted Therapeutic Agents to Tafasitamab-based Therapy in Non-Transplant-Eligible Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Large B-cell Lymphoma

Summary

This is a randomized, phase II study for patients with Relapsed/Refractory Large B-Cell Lymphoma. The purpose of this study is to determine how long people with Large B-Cell Lymphoma can live without their disease getting worse when treated with two different combinations of cancer drugs. One group will get tafasitamab + lenalidomide + tazemetostat, and the other group will get tafasitamab + lenalidomide + zanubrutinib. The researchers want to see which combination works better. They also want to figure out the best and safest dose of each drug combination to use in future studies. Tafasitamab is a lab-made antibody that helps the immune system find and attack cancer cells. Lenalidomide is a drug that boosts the immune system and helps fight cancer. Tazemetostat is a drug that blocks a protein (EZH2) that helps cancer cells grow. Zanubrutinib is a drug that blocks another protein (BTK) involved in cancer cell survival. The treatment period may last approximately 1 year and the follow up period may last up to 3 years.

Randomized Phase 2 Trial of Sacituzumab Govitecan With or Without Pembrolizumab in First-line Metastatic PD-L1-negative TNBC

List of Studies

Keywords
Cancer, Drug Studies
Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) of sacituzumab govitecan with pembrolizumab to that of sacituzumab govitecan alone in patients with PD-L1-negative metastatic TNBC, who have not received prior therapy for metastatic breast cancer and who have not received a prior PD-1/L1 inhibitor.

Subjects can remain on study for as long as they are benefitting from treatment - there are no set number of visits required to participate in this study. Sacituzumab govitecan and pembrolizumab are taken via intravenous (IV) infusion. Risks include decrease in white blood cell count, anemia, nausea, joint pain, and headache.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Sacituzumab govitecan for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer, however, it is considered experimental in this study because it is currently only approved for patients who have had more treatment than patients eligible to participate in this study. The FDA has approved Pembrolizumab for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer, but it is also considered experimental in this study because it is not currently approved for patients with PD-L1 negative cancer.

Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with recurrent, progressive as well as advanced, metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cervical cancer (CC), melanoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study is testing an investigational drug called DB-1311. Investigational means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The primary purpose of the study is to determine the recommended phase II dose of DB-1311 in combination with BNT327 or DB-1311 in combination with DB-1305 by assessing the safety and tolerability. The drug is given to participants by IV infusion. Participants in this study can expect to be in this study for 72 months.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if we lower the chance of your prostate cancer growing or spreading by adding the drug relugolix to the usual radiation therapy? This study seeks to find if this approach is better or worse than standard of care for prostate cancer.

Treatment and follow up for this study may be up to 5 years. The procedures include blood samples, PET scans, hormone therapy and radiation therapy. Risks include diarrhea, back pain, weight gain, and headache. 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.

Summary

This study is for patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma. The purpose of this phase three study is to determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopic resection for thoracic event-free survival (tEFS) in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma. The risks from this study are the usual risk of surgery such as bleeding, infection, injury to chest area, and pain after surgery. There is also the risk that additional surgery may be required to remove all cancer from the patient's lung. People in this clinical trial will receive surgery as the study therapy. The length of time surgery lasts can vary. After treatment, the patient will have follow-up examinations and medical tests.

Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer who are taking bevacizumab. This study is testing two investigational drugs called nelfinavir and hydroxychloroquine. "Investigational" means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of cancer. The primary purpose of this study is to see if these two medications in combination with bevacizumab are safe and effective in ovarian cancer. These drugs will be given by mouth. Participants in this study can expect to be in this study for 6 months for data collection, but may continue on the study medications longer if seeing benefit.
