This study is for subjects that have been diagnosed with lung cancer and the disease has progressed on prior therapy. The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Fingolimod and whether it can aid in treatment against lung cancer tumors. Fingolimod is not FDA approved and is considered an investigational drug. Subjects can expect to be in this study for about 8 months, with routine visits occurring at MUSC.
This study seeks to enroll patients in who are going to be getting a Low Dose CT scan as a part of Lung Cancer Screening and collect a blood sample that will be used to help to further develop and validate the Freenome FMBT-Lung test.

This is a seamless, Phase 1b/2 Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD)/Proof of Concept (POC) Study (hereafter referred to as Phase 2 Program) of XTMAB-16 in participants with pulmonary sarcoidosis with or without extrapulmonary involvement. The study is comprised of two parts: Part A is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled multiple dose-escalating study, and Part B is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled POC study.
The objective of Part A is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MADs of XTMAB-16, and to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose and frequency for Part B for XTMAB-16 administration in participants with pulmonary sarcoidosis with or without extrapulmonary manifestations.
The objective of Part B is to confirm preliminary efficacy of XTMAB-16 as measured by the ability to reduce background oral corticosteroid use in participants with pulmonary sarcoidosis with or without extrapulmonary manifestations.
This study is designed to learn about the safety and effectiveness of a new gene therapy called KB408 for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD). AATD is an inherited condition in which a person has low blood levels of a protein known as alpha-1 protease inhibitor (called Alpha1-PI). AATD causes an increased risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the form of emphysema (long term lung disease) and, less frequently, other diseases.
KB408 delivers copies of the genes that produce AAT to the lungs and is given by inhaling a mist (called nebulization). The genes are carried and delivered by a modified herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). This virus is not harmful and simply acts as a vehicle to deliver the genes to the lungs. The genes that are delivered by KB408 do not change a person's own DNA. This is an open-label study, meaning that the participants, the study doctor, and the sponsor all know that the participants are receiving KB408. KB408 is an investigational product, meaning it is not approved for commercial use by the FDA.
Eligible participants will receive one of three doses of KB408. Participants will have a screening visit first to make sure that they are able to participate in the study. After the screening visit, participants will need to return to the study center for follow up visits. The number of follow up visits depends on which cohort the subject is enrolled in. At the second visit, participants will receive the study drug. In Cohort 2b, subjects will have repeat dosing. Each visit will take between 2 and 8 hours to complete. Study procedures include medical history collection, vitals, physical exam, ECG, spirometry and DLCO, urine cotinine test, blood work, cheek swab, sputum sample, and bronchoscopy.
Possible side effects of KB408 include temporary increases in certain cell types in the lungs and temporary increases in the breathing rate after dosing. Since this is the first time that KB408 has been given to humans, it is possible that participants may have an immune reaction to the study drug. There is also a risk with genetic testing and a risk to confidentiality. Participants may not receive any personal benefit from being in this study. There is no guarantee that the Study Drug will help. The information that is collected from the study may help other people in the future.
