13 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Background: Rare tumors of the genitourinary (GU) tract can appear in the kidney, bladder, ureters, and penis. Rare tumors are difficult to study because there are not enough people to conduct large trials for new treatments. Two drugs-sacituzumab govitecan (SG) and atezolizumab-are each approved to treat other cancers. Researchers want to find out if the two drugs used together can help people with GU. Objective: To test SG, either alone or combined with atezolizumab, in people with rare GU tumors. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years and older with rare GU tumors. These may include high grade neuroendocrine carcinomas; squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder; primary adenocarcinoma of the bladder; renal medullary carcinoma; or squamous cell carcinoma of the penis. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have tests of heart function. They will have imaging scans. They may need a biopsy: A small needle will be used to remove a sample of tissue from the tumor. Both SG and atezolizumab are given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. All participants will receive SG on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day treatment cycle. Some participants will also receive atezolizumab on day 1 of each cycle. Blood and urine tests, imaging scans, and other exams will be repeated during study visits. Treatment may continue for up to 5 years. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 more years.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest safe dose of hu5B1-TCO and the best dosing schedule of hu5B1-TCO and 64Cu-Tz-SarAr for finding cancer cells that are CA19-9 positive. This study will also help to find out how much radiation the body is exposed to when 64Cu-Tz-SarAr is used, and provide information on the way the body absorbs, distributes, and gets rid of 64Cu-Tz-SarAr.
RATIONALE: Inserting a gene that has been created in the laboratory into a person's white blood cells may make the body build an immune response to kill cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of gene therapy in treating patients who have cancer that has not responded to previous therapy.
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to learn if 'complex' cancer patients who receive care guided by a health system intervention, Primary Care Connect (PC2) have their risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) managed better than those who receive usual care. This study focuses on "complex" cancer survivors who have higher CVD risk when diagnosed with cancer because they also have had a diagnosis of 1 or more chronic conditions (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, and/or hyperlipidemia) requiring medication management. This study also aims to learn about the ease of implementing the health system intervention from the perspectives of cancer teams, primary care teams, and complex cancer patients. The main questions the study aims to answer are: * Do patients enrolled in the PC2 arm remain connected to their primary care teams during active cancer treatment for chronic disease management compared to patients in usual care? * Do patients enrolled in the PC2 arm have better management of their chronic conditions during active cancer treatment compared to patients in usual care? * How do the care team and patients experience this change in care delivery related to their work and care experiences? This study will compare complex cancer survivors who receive care according to the PC2 intervention to usual care to see if PC2 works to improve cardiovascular risk management. Participants will: * receive educational materials about the study upon enrollment * complete on-line or written surveys at 4 times * Visit the clinic for check ups and test related to the study 4 times
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.
Interleukin-12 may kill tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor and by stimulating a person's white blood cells to kill cancer cells. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of interleukin-12 and trastuzumab in treating patients who have cancer that has high levels of HER2/neu and has not responded to previous therapy
This is a Phase 1/2, multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation and expansion study to evaluate safety and tolerability, PK, pharmacodynamic, and early signal of anti-tumor activity of MDNA11 alone or in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor in patients with advanced solid tumors.
The PIONEER Initiative stands for Precision Insights On N-of-1 Ex vivo Effectiveness Research. The PIONEER Initiative is designed to provide access to functional precision medicine to any cancer patient with any tumor at any medical facility. Tumor tissue is saved at time of biopsy or surgery in multiple formats, including fresh and cryopreserved as a living biospecimen. SpeciCare assists with access to clinical records in order to provide information back to the patient and the patient's clinical care team. The biospecimen tumor tissue is stored in a bio-storage facility and can be shipped anywhere the patient and the clinical team require for further testing. Additionally, the cryopreservation of the biospecimen allows for decisions about testing to be made at a later date. It also facilitates participation in clinical trials. The ability to return research information from this repository back to the patient is the primary end point of the study. The secondary end point is the subjective assessment by the patient and his or her physician as to the potential benefit that this additional information provides over standard of care. Overall the goal of PIONEER is to enable best in class functional precision testing of a patient's tumor tissue to help guide optimal therapy (to date this type of analysis includes organoid drug screening approaches in addition to traditional genomic profiling).
Open-label, Phase I-II, first-in-human (FIH) study for A166 monotherapy in HER2-expressing or amplified patients who progressed on or did not respond to available standard therapies. Patients must have documented HER2 expression or amplification. The patient must have exhausted available standard therapies. Patients will receive study drug as a single IV infusion. Cycles will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
This is a study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for CDX-1140 (CD40 antibody), either alone or in combination with CDX-301 (FLT3L), pembrolizumab, or chemotherapy and to further evaluate its tolerability and efficacy in expansion cohorts once the MTD is determined.
RATIONALE: Palliative care may help patients with advanced cancer live more comfortably. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying an early intervention palliative care program to see how well it works compared to a standard care program in improving end-of-life care in patients with advanced lung , gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or breast cancer.
RATIONALE: Thalidomide may stop the growth of cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining thalidomide with docetaxel may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining thalidomide with docetaxel in treating patients who have advanced cancer.
Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of trastuzumab plus R115777 in treating patients who have advanced or metastatic cancer. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining trastuzumab with R115777 may kill more tumor cells.
