This study will enroll adult participants with early-stage (stage II-IIIB) non-small cell lung cancer for whom surgery is planned. The aim is to find out whether an investigational treatment (consisting of the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab plus chemotherapy plus a third drug) works better than cemiplimab plus chemotherapy without the additional drug. The study is also looking at several other research questions, including: * What are the side effects associated with the investigational treatments in comparison to the control treatment? * Do the investigational treatments or the control treatment have an effect on the type of surgery that is performed? * How much of the study drug(s) are in the blood at a given time? * Does the body make antibodies against the study drug(s) (which could make the drug(s) less effective or could lead to side effects)?
This study explores the role of T cells in monitoring disease status and response during anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment in patients with melanoma, lung and other cancer types. Measuring levels of specific targets such as Bim and soluble PD-L1 during therapy may help track treatment resistance and clinical outcomes. This information may also help researchers determine why some people with melanoma, lung and other cancer types respond to PD-1/PD-L1 treatment and others do not.
Claudin 18.2 protein, or CLDN18.2 is a protein found on cells in the digestive system. It is also found on some tumors. Researchers are looking at ways to attack CLDN18.2 to help control tumors. ASP2138 is thought to bind to CLDN18.2 and a protein on a type of immune cell called a T-cell. This "tells" the immune system to attack the tumor. ASP2138 is a potential treatment for people with stomach cancer, gastroesophageal junction cancer (GEJ cancer) or pancreatic cancer. GEJ is where the tube that carries food (esophagus) joins the stomach. Before ASP2138 is available as a treatment, the researchers need to understand how it is processed by and acts upon the body. In this study, ASP2138 will either be given by itself, or given together with standard treatments for gastric, GEJ and pancreatic cancer. Pembrolizumab and mFOLFOX6, and ramucirumab and paclitaxel are standard treatments for gastric and GEJ cancer. mFOLFIRINOX is a standard treatment for pancreatic cancer. This information will help find a suitable dose of ASP2138 given by itself and together with the standard cancer treatments and to check for potential medical problems from the treatments. The main aims of the study are: * To check the safety of ASP2138 and how well people can tolerate medical problems during the study. * To find a suitable dose of ASP2138 to be used later in the study. * These are done for ASP2138 given by itself and when given together with the standard cancer treatments. Adults 18 years or older with stomach cancer, GEJ cancer, or pancreatic cancer can take part. Their cancer is locally advanced unresectable or metastatic. Locally advanced means the cancer has spread to nearby tissue. Unresectable means the cancer cannot be removed by surgery. Metastatic means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. There should also be the CLDN18.2 marker in a tumor sample. People cannot take part if they need to take medicines to suppress their immune system, have blockages or bleeding in their gut, have specific uncontrollable cancers, have specific infections, have a condition such as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) which is when the body over-reacts to a "trigger" such as infection, or have a specific heart condition ("New York Heart Association Class III or IV"). Phase 1: Lower to higher doses of ASP2138 * ASP2138 is either given through a vein (intravenous infusion) or just under the skin (subcutaneous injection). * Different small groups are given lower to higher doses of ASAP2138. * ASP2138 is either given by itself, or given with 1 of 3 standard treatments: * Pembrolizumab and mFOLFOX6 (first treatment for gastric GEJ cancer) * Ramacirumab and paclitaxel (Second treatment for gastric or GEJ cancer) * ASP2138 with mFOLFIRINOX (first treatment for pancreatic cancer) Phase 1b: doses of ASP2138 worked out from Phase 1 * ASP2138 is either given through a vein or just under the skin. This depends on the findings from Phase 1. * People with gastric cancer, GEJ cancer or pancreatic cancer are given doses of ASP2138, worked out from Phase 1. * This includes doses of ASP2138 given by itself and ASP2138 given with the standard cancer treatments. * The standard cancer treatments given depends on the type of cancer they have. End of treatment visit: This is 7 days after final dose of study treatment or if the study doctor decides to stop the person's treatment. People who have locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer will not receive ASP2138 by itself.
This study is researching an experimental drug called linvoseltamab in combination with other drugs for the treatment of a blood cancer called multiple myeloma. Linvoseltamab has previously been studied as a single agent (without other cancer treatments) in participants with multiple myeloma that returned after prior therapies and needed to be treated again. In the initial study, some participants treated with linvoseltamab had improvement of their myeloma, including complete responses (no evidence of myeloma in their bodies). This study is the first time linvoseltamab will be combined with other cancer therapies. The main goal is to understand if linvoseltamab can be given safely with other cancer treatments, and if so, what dose of linvoseltamab should be used for each combination. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * How many participants treated with linvoseltamab in combination with each of the other cancer treatments have improvement of their multiple myeloma * What side effects may happen from taking linvoseltamab together with another cancer treatment * How much study drug is in the blood at different times * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug(s) (which could make the study drug(s) less effective or could lead to side effects)
This is a single-center, open-label, multi-cohort Phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab in combination with lenvatinib in patients with solid tumors and brain metastases. The study will be comprised of 3 patient cohorts: triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and solid tumor types other than TNBC and NSCLC. Cohort 3 will be comprised of solid tumor types with established (e.g., renal cell carcinoma \[RCC\], endometrial cancer) or preliminary clinical evidence (e.g., gastric cancer, colorectal cancer) of efficacy of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and angiogenesis inhibitors. The study will be conducted using a Simon's optimal two-stage design, and approximately 87 patients will be enrolled concurrently (n=29 per cohort). The primary endpoint is intracranial objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.
This trial investigates whether hyperpolarized magnetic resonance imaging (hpMRI) can predict treatment response in patients with thyroid cancer and other malignancies of the head and neck undergoing radiation therapy and/or receiving systemic therapy before surgery. An hpMRI is like a standard MRI but involves the use of an imaging contrast agent called hyperpolarized 13-C-pyruvate. Diagnostic procedures, such as hpMRI, may predict a patient's response to treatment and may help plan the best treatment.
The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability (how your body reacts to the drug) and effectiveness (ability to treat your cancer) of REGN5678 alone, or in combination with cemiplimab. The study has 2 parts. The goal of Part 1 (dose escalation) is to determine a safe dose(s) of REGN5678 when it is given alone or in combination with cemiplimab. The goal of Part 2 (dose expansion) is to use the REGN5678 drug dose(s) found in Part 1 to see how well REGN5678 alone or in combination with cemiplimab works to shrink tumors. This study is looking at several other research questions, including: 1. Side effects that may be experienced by taking REGN5678 alone or in combination with cemiplimab 2. How REGN5678 alone or in combination with cemiplimab works in the body 3. How much REGN5678 and/or cemiplimab are present in the blood 4. To see if REGN5678 alone or in combination with cemiplimab works to reduce the size of the tumor by helping the immune system destroy the tumor
This study is researching an investigational drug, odronextamab, in adult patients B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL). The main purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of odronextamab in destroying cancer cells and to learn more about the safety of odronextamab. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * To see if odronextamab works to destroy cancer cells * Side effects that may be experienced by people taking odronextamab * How odronextamab works in the body * How much odronextamab is present in the blood
Background: \- Some genes may be associated with a greater chance of side effects during cancer treatment. These genes may also make certain treatments less effective. Researchers want to collect blood or cheek swab samples from people having cancer treatment to study these genes. Objectives: \- To obtain a blood or cheek swab sample to study genetic differences that may affect cancer treatment. Eligibility: \- Individuals with cancer who are being treated at the National Cancer Institute. Design: * Participants will provide a blood sample for study. * Participants who have blood-based cancer, such as leukemia, will provide a cheek swab sample. * If the blood or cheek swab sample does not have enough genetic material for analysis, an additional sample may be collected.
This study is open to adults with small cell lung cancer and other neuroendocrine cancers that are positive for the tumour marker delta-like 3 (DLL3). The study is in people with advanced cancer for whom previous treatment was not successful or no standard treatment exists. The purpose of this study is to find out the highest dose of BI 764532 and the best treatment schedule that people can tolerate. BI 764532 is an antibody-like molecule (DLL3/CD3 bispecific) that may help the immune system fight cancer. In this study, BI 764532 is given to people for the first time. That means no clinical data are available for BI 764532. Participants get BI 764532 either weekly or once every 3 weeks. If there is benefit for the participants and if they can tolerate it, the treatment is given for a maximum of 3 years. During this time, participants visit the study site about 20 times depending on the response to the treatment. Doctors record any unwanted effects and regularly check the general health of the participants.
