This study is a randomized controlled biobehavioral efficacy trial designed to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of a novel intervention, Goal-focused Emotion-Regulation Therapy (GET) aimed at improving distress symptoms, emotion regulation, goal navigation skills, and stress-sensitive biomarkers in young adult testicular cancer patients. Participants will be randomized to receive six sessions of GET or Individual Supportive Listening (ISL) delivered over eight weeks. In addition to indicators of intervention feasibility, the investigators will measure primary (depressive and anxiety symptoms) and secondary (emotion regulation and goal navigation skills, career confusion) psychological outcomes prior to (T0), immediately after (T1), twelve weeks after intervention (T2) and 24 weeks after the intervention (T3). Additionally, identified biomarkers will be measured at baseline and at T1, T2, and T3.
This study is being done to create a registry to help us learn more about germ cell tumors (GCT) and other testicular tumors. The registry will include people with these tumors and also relatives and unrelated people without these tumors. This study will help us learn more about the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and outcome of these tumors. Studying relatives of patients and people unrelated to patients with GCT and other testicular tumors will help us understand why some people get these tumors and why some people don't.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the difference in patient-reported postoperative outcomes between two standard-of-care surgical techniques for radical orchiectomy (inguinal orchiectomy versus external oblique fascia sparing orchiectomy) for treatment of patients with suspected testicular malignancy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does sparing the external oblique fascia during orchiectomy reduce pain after surgery? 2. Is there a difference in narcotic consumption after surgery? 3. Is there a difference in neuropathic pain after surgery? 4. Is there a difference in complications after surgery?
This randomization study is to compare both intrathecal morphine and intravenous methadone, which are both standard of care, for pain management in patients undergoing retroperitoneal lymph node dissections for primary testicular cancer. Investigators plan to compare their analgesic effectiveness at different postoperative time intervals.
This study is to collect and validate regulatory-grade real-world data (RWD) in oncology using the novel, Master Observational Trial construct. This data can be then used in real-world evidence (RWE) generation. It will also create reusable infrastructure to allow creation or affiliation with many additional RWD/RWE efforts both prospective and retrospective in nature.
This phase I trial is evaluating a new imaging tracer (68Ga-FAPi-46) with positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to determine where and to which degree the tracer (68Ga-FAPi-46) accumulates in normal and cancer tissues (the biodistribution) in patients with solid tumors or hematologic (blood) cancers. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case of this research, 68Ga-FAPi-46. Because some cancers take up 68Ga-FAPi-46, it can be seen with PET. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse the body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in a patient's body. Combining a PET scan with a CT scan can help make the image easier to interpret. PET/CT scans are hybrid scanners that combine both modalities into a single scan during the same examination.
The purpose of this study is to the 6-month Venous Thromboembolism (VTE)-free rate in participants with advanced germ cell cancer at high risk of VTE who are receiving standard of care cisplatin-based chemotherapy and low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and compare to relevant historical controls
Phase I study to examine safety of the addition of concurrent tarlatamab with standard palliative and consolidative RT regimens , with a main cohort of N=20-24 patients with extracranial anatomic radiation sites. I) After lead in of 10 patients demonstrating safety of treatment, allow for expansion to cranial sites of disease (N=6-10) with continued enrollment in main cohort II) If toxicity criteria is not met in concurrent RT tarlatamab cohort, we will continue with sequential RT, either A) delivered within 7 days prior to cycle 1 day 1, or B) delivered during cycle 1 -2 but with pre- and post-RT washout of 7 days with no drug during RT, to examine safety in a temporally spaced setting. III) If sequential tarlatamab and radiation is not deemed safe, we would allow for continued enrollment to assess efficacy of drug sans radiation treatment, enriching for tumors not of small cell lung cancer histology and allowing for patients without sites amenable to RT. A nested phase II study will attempt to assess for ORR and safety of study intervention amongst tumors not of small cell lung cancer histology.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of using brodalumab in patients who develop side effects from cancer immune therapy. Immune-related side effects are due to activation of the immune system in patients who previously received immunotherapy and the goal of this study is to help better control these side effects. Brodalumab is often used to treat patients with autoimmune diseases (diseases where the immune system is activated against normal organs) and safe doses and treatment schedules have been determined in these patients. Immune-related side effects appear to closely mirror these autoimmune conditions. Brodalumab has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in immunotherapy side effects but it has been approved for treatment of autoimmune conditions.
This is a Phase 1a/1b, open-label, dose escalation and expansion study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CTIM-76 (study drug), a humanized T cell engaging bispecific antibody targeting CLDN6, in subjects with platinum-refractory/resistant ovarian cancer (PRROC) and other advanced CLDN6-positive solid tumors (i.e., testicular and endometrial).
