77 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Head and neck cancer squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a disease with poor survival, especially for African Americans, despite intense treatment including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Delays between surgery and the start of postoperative radiation therapy (PORT) are common, cause excess mortality, and contribute to worse survival in African Americans. Our research team has developed NDURE (Navigation for Disparities and Untimely Radiation thErapy), a novel theory-based patient navigation (PN) intervention to decrease delays and racial disparities starting PORT. In this single-site, open label, single-arm trial, adults with surgically-managed, locally advanced HNSCC, will be enrolled in NDURE to assess the feasibility and acceptability of NDURE as a novel approach to decreasing delays and racial disparities starting PORT after surgery for HNSCC. The investigators will collect information about the accrual rate and NDURE completion rate. Participants will also complete validated questionnaires at baseline and post-intervention to evaluate the feasibility of outcome assessment for NDURE. Post-intervention, patients and providers will undergo interviews to obtain in-depth understanding of the content, format, timing, and delivery of NDURE to optimize the intervention in preparation for a future multi-site study. NDURE could provide the first effective intervention to improve the delivery of timely, equitable PORT after HNSCC surgery, thereby improving survival for patients with HNSCC, decreasing racial disparities in mortality, and developing new standards of clinical care.

In this single-site, open label, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial of adults with surgically-managed, locally advanced HNSCC, will be randomized to NDURE versus usual care to assess the preliminary clinical impact of NDURE on delays and racial disparities starting PORT after surgery for HNSCC. The investigators will collect information about the rate of PORT delay, racial disparities in the rate of PORT delay, and completion rate of key cancer care processes. Participants will also complete validated questionnaires at baseline and post-intervention to understand the theoretical constructs underlying NDURE . Post-intervention, patients and providers will undergo interviews to obtain in-depth understanding of the content, format, timing, and delivery of NDURE to optimize the intervention in preparation for a future multi-site study. NDURE could provide the first effective intervention to improve the delivery of timely, equitable PORT after HNC surgery, thereby improving survival for patients with HNC, decreasing racial disparities in mortality, and developing new standards of clinical care.
RATIONALE: Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. CT and PET scans and treatment-planning systems may help in planning radiation therapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving radiation therapy together with cisplatin may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of intensity-modulated image guided adaptive radiation therapy when given together with cisplatin in treating patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell cancer
Background: Immunotherapy is a powerful tool in the fight against cancer. It uses the body s own immune system to fight the cancer. Unfortunately, cancer cells can find ways to escape from destruction by the body s immune system, even when immunotherapy is used. Natural killer (NK) cells are an important part of the body s immune system and can help fight cancer. In combination with immunotherapy, researchers are using engineered NK cells that recognize and kill cancer cells trying to escape destruction by the immune system. Objective: To test the effectiveness of irradiated PD-L1 CAR-NK cells, combined with pembrolizumab and N-803, in people with advanced forms of gastric or head and neck cancer. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with advanced gastric or head and neck cancer who have already had standard cancer treatment. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical exam. Their symptoms and ability to do normal activities will be assessed. They will have blood and urine tests. They will have imaging scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. Participants will get PD-L1 CAR-NK cells by intravenous (IV) infusion. They will get the cells once a week for 6 weeks. Then they will get the cells once every 2 weeks. Before each infusion, an IV catheter will be placed in a large arm vein for infusion of these treatments. Participants will get pembrolizumab by IV every 6 weeks. They will get N-803 under the skin every 4 weeks. Participants will get the study drugs for up to 2 years. They will have study visits every 1-2 weeks during treatment. They will have a safety visit 28 days after treatment ends. After treatment ends, participants will be contacted for follow-up every 2 months for a year. Then they will be contacted every 6 months. They will have tumor scans every 6-12 weeks until their cancer gets worse.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist, TransCon IL-2 β/γ, and pembrolizumab given prior to curative intent surgery in treatment of participants with newly diagnosed Stage III/IVA resectable locoregionally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC). After surgery, participants will receive local standard-of-care treatment and will be followed for safety, efficacy, and survival for up to 2 years. This trial contains a safety run-in to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the two treatment arms: Arm A (TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist plus pembrolizumab) and Arm B (TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist plus TransCon IL-2 β/γ). The safety run-in will be followed by the randomized Phase 2, open-label part of the trial comparing the safety, efficacy and survival of treatment Arm A or Arm B compared to treatment Arm C (pembrolizumab monotherapy).
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the most common cancer arising in the upper aerodigestive tract, and is the sixth leading incident cancer worldwide. Despite advances in multimodality therapy, 5-year overall survival (OS) is 40-60%, and has increased only incrementally in the past two decades. The current standard of care for primary nonsurgical management of locally advanced HNSCC is concurrent cisplatin-radiotheray, which significantly improved OS, progression-free survival, and locoregional control compared with radiotherapy alone in the landmark Intergroup trial 0126. The MET proto-oncogene encodes c-Met, a heterodimeric growth factor receptor bound exclusively by its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). In the laboratory, activation of the HGF/c-Met pathway is associated with resistance to cisplatin and radiotherapy in HNSCC. We hypothesize that the addition of an HGF/c-Met pathway inhibitor to cisplatin-radiotherapy may improve outcomes in HNSCC. Ficlatuzumab (AV-299) is a humanized HGF-inhibitory IgG1 monoclonal antibody. The primary objective of this study is to establish the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of the combination of ficlatuzumab, cisplatin and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), in patients with locally advanced HNSCC. The dose-finding study design will follow a Narayana k-in-a-row design with k set to 3 to target a 33% DLT rate. In the dose-finding phase, a total of either 10 or 14 patients will be treated. If no DLTs are observed among 10 patients, the highest dose tier will be declared the RP2D. Otherwise the RP2D will be estimated from DLTs across all dose levels by isotonic regression. The secondary objective is to estimate biomarker association with preliminary clinical response. We will evaluate biomarkers of HGF/cMet pathway activation in tumor tissue, plasma, and immune cells.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about a drug called Vorinostat (an experimental drug) in combination with chemoradiation.

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced solid tumors. Advanced solid tumors are solid cancers that may have spread to nearby tissue, lymph nodes and/or to distant parts of the body and that are unlikely to be cured or controlled with currently available treatments. A new therapy available for advanced solid cancers is immunotherapy with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. This drug class stimulates immune cells to kill cancer cells by blocking a protein called PD-1. Although PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors have shown benefits in treatment of cancer, only a subset of patients benefit from the initial therapy, while in others the cancer comes back. One reason could be that the ability of the patients' immune systems to kill cancer cells is weakened by so-called regulatory T cells which have a suppressive effect on the immune system. The study treatment BAY3375968 is an antibody that binds to a protein called CCR8 which is located on the surface of regulatory T cells. This leads to a reduction in regulatory T cells and further inhibits their immune suppressive activity, so that the immune response against cancer can be strengthened as observed in animal models. Animal studies also showed that BAY3375968 may add more anti-cancer effect to immunotherapy with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors when used in combination. All of these previous observations need to be confirmed in humans. The main aims of this study are to find for BAY3375968 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab (a PD-1 inhibitor): * how safe it is * the degree to which overt medical problems caused by the treatment(s) can be tolerated * the highest amount of BAY3375968 that can be given alone or in combination with pembrolizumab. * how it moves into, through, and out of the body. To do this, researchers will collect and analyze data about: * the number and severity of participants' medical problems after taking their treatments * the best dose of BAY3375968 that can be given * the highest level in the blood (Cmax) and the total level (AUC) of BAY3375968. Doctors keep track of all medical problems (also called adverse events) that participants have during the study, even if they do not think that they might be related to the study treatment. The researchers will also study the activity of BAY3375968 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab against the cancer. The study will have 2 parts. Part 1 (dose escalation) focuses on tumor types that respond to immunotherapy. It will help to find the best dose for BAY3375968 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab that can be given in part 2. For this, the participants will receive one specific dose of several increasing BAY3375968 doses tested in part 1. Dose escalation of BAY3375968 alone will be done prior to the dose escalation of the combination with a fixed dose of pembrolizumab. The participants of part 2 (dose expansion), will receive the best dose of BAY3375968 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab found in part 1. This part of the study focuses on certain cancer types of the lung, breast, head and neck cancer, gastric cancer and melanoma. The total duration of the study will be approximately 4 years and 7 months. Each participant in the study will visit the study site twice before starting their treatment. Once the treatment starts, the frequency of visits is 5 times per week in the first treatment week and 1 to 3 times per month in later treatment periods. Another visit will be scheduled for the participants within 30 days after the last treatment in the study. During the study, the study team will: * take blood and urine samples * do physical and vital signs examinations * examine heart health using ECG and Echocardiogram * check the tumor status and if the participants' cancer has grown and/or spread using imaging techniques * take tumor samples * ask questions about the impact of the disease on the participants' general well-being and activities of daily life. About 90 days after the participants receive their last treatment and discontinued the study, the doctors will check the participants' health. In case a new anticancer therapy has been started, medical problems will be recorded via a phone call. The study team will continue to check the participants' cancer status about every 12 weeks until their cancer gets worse, the start of a new anti-cancer therapy, or withdrawal of consent. In addition, every 6 months for up to 24 months after the last participant left the study the study team will check the participants' survival and subsequent anticancer treatment by phone until the end of this study.
