To assess the feasibility of administering induction chemotherapy with gemcitabine and docetaxel followed by concurrent radiation and continuous infusion 5FU and consolidation gemcitabine/docetaxel chemotherapy.
This first-in-human (FIH) trial is designed to assess the safety, feasibility, and potential activity of a single intravenous (IV) dose of SynKIR-110 administered to subjects with mesothelin-expressing advanced ovarian cancer, mesothelioma, and cholangiocarcinoma.
The study to evaluate M7824 monotherapy in participants with advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC) who failed or were intolerant to first-line (1L) chemotherapy.
Background: Gastrointestinal tumors have a molecule called carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) in the tumors and blood. The agent MVT-5873 was designed to block this molecule. Researchers want to test how safe it is to give this agent to people before and after surgery to remove a tumor. They want to learn the highest dose tolerated. They want to see if getting the agent at surgery helps slow down the disease. Objective: To test the safety of giving MVT-5873 at surgery to remove cancer and see if it slows the progression of the disease. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with certain cancers and certain blood CA19-9 levels Design: Participants will be screened with: * Medical history * Physical exam * Blood and heart tests * Scans * Review of normal activities * Review of tumor sample * Pregnancy test A few days before surgery, participants will get a dose of the study agent. They will get it through a small plastic tube in a vein over about 2 hours. Participants will sign a separate consent and have the surgery. A sample of the tumor and normal liver will be removed for research. For 1-2 weeks after surgery, participants will recover in intensive care then regular care at the hospital. They will be monitored and treated throughout the stay. After leaving the hospital, participants will get the study agent every week for 1 month. Then they will get it every other week for 2 months. They will repeat screening tests at study visits and at a follow-up visit. That will be about 5 weeks after the last dose.
The primary objective of this study is to estimate the frequency of FGFR2 fusions in archived intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) or mixed hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (HCC-CCA) tumor samples
BIND-014 (docetaxel nanoparticles for injectable suspension) is being studied in patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma, cervical cancer, cholangiocarcinoma or carcinomas of the biliary tree and squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Ferumoxytol imaging will also be investigated at US sites as an exploratory endpoint.
To determine the activity of gemcitabine combined with carboplatin in the treatment of patients with metastatic or recurrent cholangiocarcinoma or gallbladder cancer.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of giving external beam radiation, followed by a Cyberknife radiosurgery boost at different dose levels, together with a chemotherapy drug called capecitabine. The dose of Cyberknife radiosurgery boost will be made higher slowly in this protocol. Patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma (Klatskin tumor), which is not amenable for surgical removal, are eligible. The hypothesis is that highly focused high dose radiation delivered using Cyberknife in conjunction with traditional radiation and chemotherapy can improve outcome in this patient population.
Background: One way to treat liver cancer is to deliver chemotherapy drugs only to the liver (and not to the whole body). Researchers want to see if adding the drug PDS01ADC can improve the treatment. The drug triggers the immune system to fight cancer.\<TAB\> Objective: To see if treatment with HAIPs to deliver liver-directed chemotherapy in combination with PDS01ADC is effective for certain cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older who have cancer of the bile ducts that is only in the liver, or colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood tests Pregnancy test (if needed) Tumor biopsy (if needed) Electrocardiogram Computed tomography (CT) scans Participants will have an abdominal operation. A catheter will be placed into an artery that feeds blood to the liver. The catheter will then be attached to the HAIP. The HAIP will lay under the skin on the left side of the abdomen. Participants will have chemotherapy drugs or heparin with saline infused into the HAIP every 2 weeks. PDS01ADC will be injected under the skin every 4 weeks. They will get systemic chemotherapy through an IV or mediport every 2 weeks. They will receive this treatment until their cancer gets worse or they have bad side effects. Participants will have 2 study visits each month. They will have CT scans every 8 weeks. At visits, they will repeat some screening tests. Participants will have a follow-up visit 1 month after treatment ends. Then they will be contacted every 6 months for 5 years.
This phase II trial studies how well olaparib works in treating patients with glioma, cholangiocarcinoma, or solid tumors with IDH1 or IDH2 mutations that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This phase II trial is studying how well giving sorafenib tosylate together with erlotinib hydrochloride works in treating patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic gallbladder cancer or cholangiocarcinoma. Sorafenib tosylate and erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth or by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
In this study the investigators will be studying the effects of proton beam radiation therapy. This is a very accurate kind of treatment that has been shown to affect less normal tissue than a photon radiation beam. The accuracy allows the investigators to more safely increase the amount of radiation delivered to eliminate cancer. This accuracy will potentially reduce side effects that participants would normally experience using photon radiation therapy. The purpose of this study is to determine if radiation using proton beam therapy will kill the cancer cells in the participants liver.
This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic gallbladder cancer or cholangiocarcinoma. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine and capecitabine, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemcitabine with capecitabine in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic gallbladder cancer or cholangiocarcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and clinical activity of enasidenib in adults with advanced solid tumors, including glioma, or with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), with an isocitrate dehydrogenase-2 (IDH2) mutation.
This is an open-label, phase 1/2 study evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (what the body does to the drug), pharmacodynamic (what the drug does to the body), and antitumor activity of CGT4859 in adult participants with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) or other advanced solid tumors with FGFR2 and/or FGFR3 genetic alternations.
Background: Tumors that have spread to the lining of the abdomen from other cancers, such as cancer of the appendix, colon, or ovary, are called peritoneal carcinomatosis. In most cases, outcomes are poor. Researchers want to test a new treatment. Objective: To learn if the combination of oral nilotinib plus paclitaxel given by IV and directly into the abdomen can reduce tumors enough for people to have surgery. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with peritoneal carcinomatosis that is too widespread for surgery. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Medical history Blood and urine tests Electrocardiogram Laparoscopy. They will get general anesthesia. Small cuts will be made in their abdomen. Tissue and fluid samples will be taken. Surveys about their health CT scans of their torso Participants will have up to 4 more laparoscopies. During the first procedure, a port will be placed under the skin of their abdomen (an IP port). It will be attached to a catheter that is placed in their abdomen. Participants will get treatment in 3-week cycles, for 3 or 6 cycles. They will take nilotinib by mouth twice daily. They will get paclitaxel by IP port (once per cycle) and by IV (twice per cycle). After cycles 3 and 6, they will have a laparoscopy and CT scans. Then they may take nilotinib and get IV paclitaxel for up to 1 year. At study visits, participants will repeat some screening tests. About 6 weeks after treatment ends and then every 3 months for 3 years, participants will have follow-up visits at NIH or with their local doctor.
Background: The protein mesothelin is found on many kinds of tumors. The drug LMB-100 targets cancer cells that make this protein. Researchers want to see if LMB-100 combined with another drug can help people with these tumors. Objective: To find a safe dose of LMB-100 plus tofacitinib in people with pancreatic cancer, bile-duct cancer, and other solid tumors that make mesothelin. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with pancreatic cancer, bile-duct cancer, or any other solid tumor with mesothelin that worsened after treatment or they could not receive standard treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: * Medical history * Tumor tissue sample. If they do not have a sample, they will have a biopsy. * Physical exam * Blood and heart tests * Scans and x-rays: They may have a dye injected for the scans. Participants will take the drugs in up to three 21-day cycles. They will take tofacitinib by mouth twice a day on days 1-10 of each cycle. They will have LMB-100 injected into the blood on days 4, 6, and 8 of every cycle. Patients that do not have a medi-port may need to have a central vein access line placed. Participants will take other drugs on the days they receive LMB-100. Participants will repeat screening tests during the study. They may have a biopsy at the start of the first 2 cycles. If participants must stop the study, they will have a safety visit 3-6 weeks after their last dose of the study drug. Some participants may then have visits every 6 weeks. After treatment, participants will be contacted about once a year. They will be asked about their cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and toxicity of the combination of pazopanib and GSK1120212 in patients with solid tumors and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of this combination for phase II study.
This is a pilot and feasibility study assessing the role of quantitative multiparametric MRI and blood-based biomarkers for the measurement of liver function in patients receiving radiation therapy for liver cancer, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocarcinoma, or liver metastases regardless of primary histology, that are undergoing photon radiation either in the de-novo or re-irradiation setting. The goal of this study is to prospectively evaluate the feasibility of using quantitative multiparametric MRI to monitor liver function at baseline and following liver radiation therapy.
This is a Phase 1a/1b open-label, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CT-95 (study drug), a humanized T cell engaging bispecific antibody targeting Mesothelin, in subjects with advanced solid tumors associated with Mesothelin expression.
The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize the safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose of MGC028 (if no MTD is defined). The study will enroll adult participants with relapsed or refractory, unresectable, locally advanced of metastatic solid tumors known to express ADAM9. The main question the study aims to answer is: * What types of side effects will participants experience when receiving MGC028? * Can MGC028 cause cancer to shrink, remain stable, or able to control disease progression of participants with advanced solid tumors? Participants will * Undergo screening procedures to determine eligibility * Receive study treatments initially every 3 weeks. * Have blood samples taken for routine and research tests * Have other examinations to check heart and lung function, and general health status * Be asked about any side effects that may be happening or other medications you are taking. The study doctor will provide treatment for side effects, if necessary. * Have the study doctor assess your tumor status at regular intervals to determine how you are responding to treatment.
Background: Gastrointestinal (GI) cancer affects the organs (such as the stomach, large and small intestine, pancreas, colon, liver, and biliary system) of the digestive tract. In some participants who have had surgery for GI cancer, blood tests show that the cancer has spread despite being unable to be identified by scans. Certain gene mutations (changes) in GI cancer (such as KRAS or TP53) can be targeted by T cells, a type of immune cell, in individuals with specific HLA types (genes that help proteins in the body know what is self and non-self). Researchers want to see if they can stop GI cancer from returning or spreading in people with these gene mutations and specific HLA types. Objective: To test therapy with modified T-cells to prevent or delay the return of GI cancer after standard treatment. T-cells play a role in the body s immune system. Eligibility: People aged 18 to 72 years with GI cancer that was treated with standard therapy and is not seen on imaging scans. They must have specific gene mutations and HLA types. They also must have certain clinical or blood tests showing the cancer is spreading (elevating CA19-9 or detectable ctDNA). Design: Participants will be divided into 2 groups. Participants nor the study team can choose what Group to participate in; this is done by randomization , like flipping a coin. Participants will have a 1-to-1 chance of being in Group 1 or Group 2. Group 1 will receive T-cell therapy. Their own T-cells will be collected. In a lab, the cells will be combined with a virus that carries a protein to target cancer cells. Group 1 participants will stay in the hospital for 3 weeks or more. They will have chemotherapy, and their modified T-cells will be infused through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein. Group 1 participants will visit the clinic every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 5 years. Then they will have follow-up visits for another 10 years under a different protocol. Group 2 participants will not receive treatment with T-cells. They will visit the clinic every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 5 years.
The main purpose of the study is to assess whether the study drug, LY4066434, is safe and tolerable when administered to participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with certain KRAS mutations. LY4066434 will be given alone or in combination with other treatments. The study will have 2 parts: monotherapy dose escalation and dose optimization. The study is expected to last up to approximately 5 years.
This study is being done to see if the investigators can improve the outcome of patients with biliary tract cancer that do not qualify for surgery. This study will compare the effects, good and/or bad, of using a combination of standard of care chemoimmunotherapy, with the addition of radiation and deep hyperthermia. In this study, participants will be receiving standard of care chemoimmunotherapy (gemcitabine, cisplatin, and durvalumab), radiation (spatially fractionated radiation therapy), and deep hyperthermia. Chemoimmunotherapy Chemoimmunotherapy is when chemotherapy drugs are combined with immunotherapy drugs. Chemotherapy uses different drugs to kill or slow the growth of cancer cells, whereas immunotherapy drugs are used to help the immune system attack cancer cells. For this study, the drugs Gemcitabine, Cisplatin, and Durvalumab will be used. Chemoimmunotherapy will be delivered over 4 cycles for this study and can continue longer if the treating physician decides this is appropriate. Each cycle will last 3 weeks. Spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT) SFRT is a form of radiation therapy that gives a single large dose of radiation to large tumors or tumors that do not qualify for surgery. This is not a standard type of treatment for people with this diagnosis. For this study, participants will be receiving radiation once on day 1 of the second chemoimmunotherapy cycle. Deep Hyperthermia (HT) Hyperthermia is used in combination with chemoimmunotherapy and radiation treatment in this study. Hyperthermia has the potential to make both chemotherapy and radiation treatments more effective. For this study, participants will receive HT three times: on the first day of cycles 2, 3, and 4 of chemoimmunotherapy.
Background: Fibroblast-activation protein (FAP) is an enzyme that appears in high numbers in certain cancer cells. \[18F\]FAPI-74 is a new tracer-a substance that is injected into a person s body before an imaging scan. Researchers believe that \[18F\]FAPI-74 may be able to highlight FAP enzymes more effectively than approved tracers. If so, the new tracer would make it easier to find FAP-positive tumors in the body. Objective: To see if \[18F\]FAPI-74 PET scans are as good or better than other methods for detecting certain cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older with cancer in 1 of these places: the ducts of the pancreas, liver, gallbladder, or small intestine; stomach; bladder; ovaries; or adrenal glands. They must be enrolled in an NIH treatment study for their cancer. Design: Participants will have 2 baseline scans: 1 with \[18F\]FAPI-74; 1 with an approved tracer. The \[18F\]FAPI-74 will be infused through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein. About 1 hour later, the participant will undergo 1 or more imaging scans. Within 1 week, participants will undergo the same scanning procedures with the approved tracer. If the baseline scan with \[18F\]FAPI-74 shows the tumors, scans with this tracer will be repeated when their regular treatment regimen calls for scans again. If the scans with the regular tracer also showed tumors, this scan will be repeated within the same week as the repeated \[18F\]FAPI-74 scans. If either type of scan showed no tumors, that scan will not be repeated. If the participant s cancer progresses within 2 years, both types of scan may be repeated. Follow-up calls will continue for 2 years.
This is an open-label, Phase 1/2 study to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of APL-5125 for the treatment of selected locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with particular focus on Colorectal carcinoma (CRC).
This study is an open-label, multicenter study for Continued Characterization of Safety and Tolerability of TT-00420 (tinengotinib) Tablet Monotherapy in Adult Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors
It is sometimes difficult to precisely understand whether a primary liver cancer is a hepatocellular carcinoma or a cholangiocarcinoma. The researchers will develop and validate a liquid biopsy, based on exosomal content analysis and powered by machine learning, to help clinicians differentiate these two cancers before surgery.
The overall goal of the WU-PE-CGS is to build a rigorous, scientific evidence base for approaches that direct engagement of cancer patients and post-treatment cancer survivors as participants in cancer research, and to investigate the impact of directly engaging participants in decisions regarding returning of genomic results on participants' health and satisfaction. Participants in this study will be presented with the choice of types of genomic results to receive, and the Engagement Optimization Unit (EOU) will investigate the impact of this intervention on participant knowledge, expectations of benefit, personal utility, and decisional conflict.
