This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with platinum-resistant, high-grade ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer who have received at least 1 and no more than 3 prior systemic lines of anticancer therapy. The investigational drug used in this study is Raludotatug Deruxtecan (R-DXd). Investigational means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The primary purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of R-DXd for further clinical development. In Phase 3, participants will be randomized between R-DXd and investigator's choice of chemotherapy. Randomization is like flipping a coin, essentially meaning that each option has an equal likelihood of being selected. The drug is given to participants through infusion. Participants can continue to receive the study drug until it no longer gives them benefit. Researchers will continue to follow up with patients long-term.
This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with grade 1 or 2 recurrent or metastatic endometrioid endometrial cancer. The investigational drug used in this study is ipatasertib. Investigational means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The marketed drug used in this study is megestrol acetate (MA). Marketed means the drug has been approved by the FDA for sale and use in the United States. The primary purpose of this study is to compare the progression free survival of the combination of ipatasertib with MA to MA alone among women with metastatic grade 1-2 recurrent or metastatic endometrioid endometrial cancer. Patients will be randomized to either of the two treatments. Randomization is like flipping a coin, essentially meaning that each option has an equal likelihood of being selected. The drug is given to participants orally. Participants can expect to be on this study until disease progression or adverse events prohibit further therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate investigational treatments (study drug) in people with recurrent or metastatic PD-L1-positive, HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma without prior treatment. The goal is to determine the optimal dose level, safety, and tolerability for the study drug BCA101. This is a phase 2 study; BCA101 is not FDA approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Treatment for this study may be up to 5 years. The procedures include taking study drug intravenously, blood and urine samples, and CT scans. Risks include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, mouth sore, nose bleed, headache, and skin rash. 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 designed to learn more about the effects of Petosemtamab, an investigational drug not FDA approved, compared to standard of care treatment for people with head and neck cancer that has been previously treated with immunotherapy and chemotherapy. If decided to take part in this study, participants will go through a screening period, treatment period, and follow-up period. During the screening period following signing of consent form participants will be evaluated for screening criteria and determined if they qualify for the study. During treatment period participants will be randomly assigned to either receiving petosemtamab or one of the three standard of care choices. In the follow up period the side effects after completion of petosemtamab administration or assigned standard of care treatment will be evaluated. Also, approximately every 12 weeks after study treatment stopped, either petosemtamab or assigned standard of care, participants will receive a phone call for long term follow-up for up to 1.5 years. Participation in this study may last up to two years. The participants will complete questionnaires to evaluate the differences in the quality of life for participants that received petosemtamab versus standard of care treatment. Some serious risk related to this study are infusion related reactions, rash and diarrhea. There may not a benefit from joining the study. The head and neck cancer may improve while on this study but it may not, and it may even get worse. It will also help inform how well Petosemtamab works at curing this type of cancer. The study results may be used to help others in the future.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is a condition in which the body does not make enough of AAT, a protein that protects the lungs and liver from damage. This condition is inherited, meaning you get the faulty gene from one or both of your parents.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of oral administration of BMN 349 in adult participants with the PiZZ genotype (also defined as having a severe deficiency or AAT ≤ 60mg/dL) or PiMZ genotype with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Participants will receive an oral single dose of BMN 349 (250 mg), a medication designed to assist Z-alpha-1 antitrypsin to get out of the liver cell. The study drug BMN 349 has not been approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA).
This is a phase 1 study in which participants will get a single pill dose of drug or placebo to measure the amount of alpha-1 that gets out of the liver cells and into the bloodstream. Study details include:
• Study duration: up to 78 days
• Treatment duration: 1 day (single dose).
• Observations: The study will collect data on medical history, physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram readings, clinical laboratory parameters, pulmonary function tests, and drug distribution.
• Visit frequency: The Screening Visit, dosing, and post dosing evaluations will be conducted at MUSC on 3 consecutive days. Visits at days 8 and 36 days will occur at study site. Other procedures/assessments may be performed at the study site or at home by a healthcare professional and/or by telemedicine.
This is an open-label, Phase 1/2 study to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of APL-5125 in adult participants with locally advanced or metastatic selected solid tumors.
This study is enrolling participants with heart disease or at high risk of developing heart disease who are already taking a cholesterol lowering medication referred to as a statin. This study is specifically seeking participants who are historically underrepresented in cardiovascular clinical trials including females, and racial/ethnic minorities, as well as those living in rural areas. This study involves the medication inclisiran which is an approved medication to help lower "bad" cholesterol. In this study participants will be randomized meaning assigned by chance to receive inclisiran along with usual care or not receive inclisiran and will continue usual care for the first 360 days. You will have a 50:50 chance, like flipping a coin, to receive inclisiran. Those participants who are randomized to not receive inclisiran initially will then receive it after day 360 and continue in the study for another 360 days so up to day 720. Participation will take up to 7 study visits.
Study related procedures include collecting medical history, demographics, questionnaires and blood work, as well as receive inclisiran as a shot just under the skin every 4 months. Study related risks include injection site reactions, joint pain or stiffness, bronchitis or an allergic reaction. There is also a risk of loss of confidentiality.
This study is for subjects that are premenopausal and have a higher-than-average risk of developing breast cancer. The main purpose of this study is to determine if using change in breast density to guide personalized tamoxifen dosing is better or worse than the usual approach for premenopausal women with dense breast tissue at higher-than-average risk of developing breast cancer. Subjects can expect to be in this study for up to XX months.
Researchers are investigating a new way to treat a type of lung cancer called small-cell lung cancer, which is very aggressive and often doesn't respond well to treatment. They're studying a drug called Tarlatamab, which targets a specific protein found on the cancer cells. This drug has already shown some promise when used alone, but now they're testing whether it works even better when combined with another type of cancer treatment called anti-PD-L1 therapy. This combination treatment might help the body's immune system fight the cancer more effectively. The hope is that by using these two treatments together, they can improve outcomes for people with small-cell lung cancer and give them a better chance of survival.
The study is for patients that have been diagnosed with bladder cancer. Cretostimogene Grenadenorepvec is the study drug that is being utilized. The primary purpose is to evaluate the recurrence free survival (RFS) of transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) followed by cretostimogene versus TURBT followed by observation in participants with intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (IR-NMIBC). The subject may remain in the study for up to 24 months. They may receive additional treatment beyond 24 months if they are tolerating and showing benefit from the treatment.
