7 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.
Background: Small cell carcinoma of the bladder (SCCB) and other high-grade neuroendocrine tumors (HGNET) of the urinary tract are rare but aggressive cancers. Average survival for people diagnosed with SCCB or HGNET is about 1 year. Lurbinectedin and avelumab are drugs that are approved to treat other cancers. Researchers want to see if these drugs can help people with SCCB or HGNET. Objective: To test lurbinectedin with or without avelumab in people with SCCB or HGNET. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years and older with SCBB or HGNET that returned and spread after treatment. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam. They will have blood tests and imaging scans. They may need to have a new biopsy: A small needle will be used to collect a tissue sample from the tumor. Both study drugs are given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein. If participants have already received a drug like avelumab they will receive only lurbinectedin. If patients have not been previously treated with a drug like avelumab they will receive both lurbinectedin and avelumab. All participants will receive their treatment once every 3 weeks for up to 10 years. They will also receive other drugs to relieve adverse effects. Biopsies, blood tests, and imaging scans will be repeated during some study visits. Participants may also have urine tests and tests of their heart function. Participants may remain in the study as long as the treatment is helping them. If they stop treatment, they will have safety visits 14, 30, and 90 days after their last dose. Additional follow-up visits will continue 5 to 10 years.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether the study drug, LY4052031, is safe, tolerable and effective in participants with advanced, or metastatic solid tumors including urothelial cancer. The study is conducted in two parts - phase Ia (dose-escalation, dose-optimization) and phase Ib (dose-expansion). The study will last up to approximately 4 years.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether the study drug, LY4101174, is safe, tolerable and effective in participants with select advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The study is conducted in two parts - phase Ia (dose-escalation, dose-optimization) and phase Ib (dose-expansion). The study will last up to approximately 4 years.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the combination of GSK3359609 and tremelimumab is safe and tolerable (Part 1) and provides significant survival benefit to subjects with relapsed/refractory (R/R) Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinomas (HNSCC) to warrant further clinical investigation (Part 2). Part 1 (dose escalation) will enroll subjects with advanced, selected solid tumors. Subjects will receive escalating doses of GSK3359609 and tremelimumab in combination in Part 1. Part 2 is randomized expansion and will enroll subjects with R/R HNSCC who have disease progression after receiving at least 1 platinum-based chemotherapy and at least 1 anti-programmed death receptor protein-1 (PD-1)/anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) therapy, whether in combination or separately. In Part 2, subjects will be randomized in a ratio of 2:1 to receive either GSK3359609 in combination with tremelimumab at the recommended Phase 2 dose or investigators choice of a single-agent standard of care (SOC) therapy including paclitaxel, docetaxel or cetuximab. The total duration of subjects in the study will be approximately 4 years.
This first time in human (FTIH) open-label, dose escalation study will assess the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary clinical activity of GSK3326595 in participants with advanced or recurrent solid tumors, as well as clinical activity in participants with a subset of solid tumors and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).
This study is being done test to test the safety and effectiveness of durvalumab combined with tremelimumab in patients who have a rare form of cancer of the urinary tract.
