Summary

This study is for subjects that have been diagnosed with prostate cancer that can be removed by surgery. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a group of drugs called statins can help to reduce the risk of prostate cancer returning after surgery. The drug used in this study is a particular type of statin called simvastatin. Simvastatin is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to help lower cholesterol (fatty deposits in your blood) and decrease the risk of heart disease. Its use in this research study is considered investigational, and not FDA approved for the subject's cancer. Subjects can expect to be in the active participation portion of this study for about 3 months. Afterwards, the study team may contact them or their medical providers every 6 months to follow their cancer care and collect information on their current health status.

Summary

This study is for subjects that have been newly diagnosed with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study is testing an "investigational" (not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)) combination of the drug zanubrutinib (BRUKINSA™) and a standard chemotherapy treatment called R-CHOP. This study will test the how well the drug combination works and how safe it is. The subject will be given the study drug combination in 21 day cycles. At any given visit, the subject may undergo procedures, such as a physical exam, blood samples, bone marrow biopsies, and imaging scans. The subject may remain in the study for up to approximately 2 years.

Summary

This study is for subjects that have been diagnosed with AML (acute myeloid leukemia) and MDS (myelodysplastic syndrome). This study is testing an "investigational" (not yet FDA approved) study drug called Sea-CD70. This study will find out if the drug is safe and tolerable, and find out the maximum tolerated dose (highest dose of a drug or treatment that does not cause unacceptable side effects) or recommended dose for the next phase of clinical study. The subject will be given the study drug in 28 day cycles. At any given visit, the subject may undergo procedures, such as a physical exam, blood samples, ECG (electrocardiogram), or a bone marrow exam. The subject may remain in the study for up to approximately 3 years.

An Open-Label, Phase 2 Trial of Nanatinostat in Combination with Valganciclovir in Patients with Epstein-Barr Virus-Positive (EBV+) Relapsed/Refractory Lymphomas (NAVAL-1)

Keywords

Summary

This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with relapsed (the disease has gotten worse after a period of improvement) or refractory (the disease does not respond to treatment) Epstein-Barr Virus-Positive (EBV+) lymphomas.

The investigational drug in this study is Nanatinostat. Investigational means it is not approved by the United States' Food and Drug Administration (US FDA). Nanatinostat is a tablet that will be taken by mouth once a day.

The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of the combination therapy, nanatinostat and valganciclovir, on treating lymphoma cancers. Valganciclovir is an approved anti-viral drug (a drug that fights against virus in your body), which has been used in the prevention and treatment of infection caused by a virus called cytomegalovirus (CMV), which is similar to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The safety and effectiveness of nanatinostat on its own will also be reviewed in a small subset of patients.

Participants can expect to receive treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity/ side effects, or participants withdraw. Participants can expect to be in follow up for up to 5 years.

Summary

This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with multiple myeloma. The investigational drug in this study is idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel). The purpose of this study is to provide the investigational drug as a possible cancer treatment that would otherwise be unavailable. Patients can expect to have about 8 clinic visits and to be in this study for up to 3 months after receiving the study drug and in follow up for up to 15 years.

Summary

This study is for subjects with Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has gotten worse or come back after two or more treatments. This study is testing an "investigational" (not yet FDA approved drug) study drug called loncastuximab tesirine (ADCT-402). Treatment will be administered intravenously or via tablet depending on the subject's assigned treatment. The primary purpose of this study is to test whether the investigational drug combination of loncastuximab tesirine in combination with one of four other anti-cancer agents is a safe and effective treatment for relapsed or refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Treatment will be assigned by a system in a sequence unless the subject has received the combination drug (the drug that is not locastuximab). This means the first enrolled subject will be assigned to arm C, the second to arm E, and so on. The subject will be seen approximately once a week during treatment, and may remain in the study for up to 3 years.

Summary

This study is for patients who have advanced cancers, such as head and neck cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, and others. This study is testing a new treatment for these types of cancer. The new test drug is called ficerafusp alfa. Pembrolizumab is an approved drug by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the diseases described in this study and will be used as approved. The type of cancer a patient has will determine whether he/she will get ficerafusp alfa alone or ficerafusp alfa in combination with pembrolizumab. Participants will receive either ficerafusp alfa alone, ficerafusp alfa in combination with pembrolizumab or ficerafusp alfa, depending on your cancer until the cancer gets worse, they experience bad side effects, or until they withdraw consent, or until the Investigator considers it is in his/her best interest to discontinue the study drug.

Summary

This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with relapsed (came back) and/or refractory (not responding to treatment) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). The investigational product is Lisocabtagene Maraleucel and is administered by infusion. Participants will have had the blood collection (leukapheresis - a laboratory procedure where white blood cells are separated from a sample of blood) procedure, where the T cells (white blood cells) were collected and genetically modified in a laboratory in order to manufacture the lisocabtagene maraleucel T cells for disease treatment. The lisocabtagene maraleucel T cells that were produced do not meet all of the prespecified release criteria to be used as a routine prescription drug as required by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This is called a nonconforming lisocabtagene maraleucel. The purpose of this study is to allow participants to be treated with their nonconforming lisocabtagene maraleucel. Participants can expect to be on the study for up to 3 months following the infusion of nonconforming lisocabtagene maraleucel.
