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.
This study is for children and adults that have been diagnosed with a disease that is associated with Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) infection.The investigational treatment in this study is called tabelecleucel (also known as ATA129), this treatment is given in the vein. Participants will receive tabelecleucel on Day 1, Day 8 and Day 15 of every 35-day (5-week) period, the number of cycles depends on the response to treatment. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of tabelecleucel and to assess the effects of tabelecleucel on EBV disease. Participants can expect to be in this study for about 2 years for an estimated 17-20 study visits.
This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) that has returned (recurrent) or spread after previous treatment (metastatic). The investigational drug in this study is lenvatinib. The study will also use lenvatinib in combination with pembrolizumab, which is also experimental. The purposes of this study are to: test the safety of the study drugs, lenvatinib alone, pembro and lenvatinib together, and standard chemotherapies alone in the treatment of HNSCC; see how well the combination of pembro and lenvatinib works, compared to standard chemotherapies; and see if participants who get pembro and lenvatinib live longer than those who are treated with standard chemotherapies. Participants can expect to be on this study for about 48 months.
This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with advanced or resistant skin cancer (melanoma), non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), certain types of solid tumors, or bladder cancer (UBC). The investigational drug in this study is RP1. RP1 is a herpes simplex virus (a microscopic life form commonly known as the "cold sore virus") that has been genetically changed to grow in and destroy cancer cells. This treatment will be injected directly into tumors. The purpose of this study is to test the safety and how well RP1 works when it is injected into certain types of solid tumors in combination with another cancer drug, called nivolumab. Participants can expect to be in this study for about 2 to 3 years.
This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer with bone metastases.The purpose of this research study is to compare any good and bad effects of using radium-223 along with docetaxel chemotherapy treatment versus using docetaxel alone. The addition of radium-223 to docetaxel could have an overall survival benefit, but it could also cause side effects. The study drugs, radium-223 and docetaxel, are considered experimental drugs that are being evaluated together as a combination therapy for participants with certain solid tumors (cancer). Patients will be seen at MUSC for about 8 months. After they finish the treatment, the doctor will continue to watch the patient for side effects and follow their condition for the rest of their life, or for as long as they wish to remain on the study.
This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or large B-cell lymphomas. The investigational drug in this study is CTL019 (Tisagenlecleucel). 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 be in this study for up to 3 months and in follow up for 15 years.
This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) . The investigational drug in this study is AG-120. The purpose of this study is to identify and test the highest dose of AG-120 that can be given safely. Participants can expect to be in the study for as long as the study doctor feels it is in the participants best interest.
This study is for patients with prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of dose-escalated radiation therapy with or without hormone therapy on your prostate cancer.
There are 2 treatment groups in this study:
1) Patients who receive radiation therapy only
2) Patients who receive radiation therapy plus hormone therapy
Patients will receive 44 radiation treatments over approximately 2 months. If the patient chooses to receive the brachytherapy implant, he will receive 25 daily treatments plus the implant procedure over a timeframe of approximately 6 weeks. Hormone therapy, if given, will last 6 months. After patients are finished receiving therapy, the study doctor will ask them to visit the office for follow-up exams at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after finishing radiation treatment, every 6 months for 4 years, and yearly thereafter.
This study if for patients that have a blood disease and it's been determined that the best option for treating that blood disease is a cord blood transplant. Cord blood (CB) is blood that is taken from the umbilical cord and placenta of healthy newborn babies after childbirth. The cord blood collected from a newborn baby is called a cord blood unit. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers cord blood to be a biological drug. These are considered "investigational" products. This study will evaluate the safety of administration of the investigational cord blood units by carefully documenting all infusion-related problems.
The primary purposes of this study are to:
•Provide access to cord blood units for recipients whose best choice for a cord blood unit(s) do not meet all FDA standards, but do meet standards set by the NMDP on this study.
•Assess how well and how quickly blood counts return to normal after transplant in recipients on this study.
