  • Herceptin Hylecta or Phesgo to the Usual Chemotherapy for HER2 Positive Endometrial Serous Carcinoma or Carcinosarcoma

    “Volunteer for research and contribute to discoveries that may improve health care for you, your family, and your community!”

    open to eligible females ages 18 years and up

    This phase III trial tests whether adding trastuzumab and hyaluronidase-oysk (Herceptin Hylecta [TM]) or pertuzumab, trastuzumab and hyaluronidase-zzxf (Phesgo [TM]) to the usual chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) works to shrink tumors in patients with HER2 positive endometrial cancer. Trastuzumab and pertuzumab are monoclonal antibodies and forms of targeted therapy that attach to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as HER2 receptors. When trastuzumab or pertuzumab attach to HER2 receptors, the signals that tell the cells to grow are blocked and the tumor cell may be marked for destruction by the body's immune system. Hyaluronidase is an endoglycosidase. It helps to keep pertuzumab and trastuzumab in the body longer, so that these medications will have a greater effect. Hyaluronidase also allows trastuzumab and trastuzumab/pertuzumab to be given by injection under the skin and shortens their administration time compared to trastuzumab or pertuzumab alone. Paclitaxel is a taxane and in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Giving Herceptin Hylecta or Phesgo in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin may shrink the tumor and prevent the cancer from coming back in patients with HER2 positive endometrial cancer.

  • Zolbetuximab (IMAB362) and Chemotherapy With Placebo and Chemotherapy in Adults With Gastric Cancer.

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    Zolbetuximab is being studied in people with cancer in and around the stomach or where the food pipe (esophagus) joins the stomach, called gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. Most people with this type of cancer have a protein called Claudin 18.2 in their tumor. Zolbetuximab is thought to work by attaching to the Claudin 18.2 protein in their tumor, which switches on the body's immune system to attack the tumor. There is an unmet medical need to treat people with advanced stomach cancer or GEJ cancer. This study will give more information about how well zolbetuximab works when given with chemotherapy in adults with advanced stomach cancer or GEJ cancer. In this study, adults with advanced stomach cancer or GEJ cancer will either be given zolbetuximab with chemotherapy or a placebo with chemotherapy. A placebo looks like zolbetuximab but doesn't have any medicine in it. Zolbetuximab with chemotherapy has already been approved to treat gastric cancer and GEJ cancer in some countries. This study is being done in countries where zolbetuximab has not yet been approved for use. If zolbetuximab becomes approved for use in those countries taking part in this study, the study doctor will switch study treatment in those countries to the licensed zolbetuximab. If this happens, people taking part in those countries will leave this study and receive licensed zolbetuximab. The main aim of the study is to check if zolbetuximab and chemotherapy can prevent or delay the worsening of people's gastric cancer and GEJ cancer compared to placebo and chemotherapy. Adults with advanced stomach cancer or GEJ cancer can take part. Locally advanced means the cancer has spread to nearby tissue. Unresectable means the cancer cannot be removed by surgery. Metastatic means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. A tumor sample of their cancer will also have the Claudin 18.2 protein. They may have been previously treated with certain standard therapies, but have not been treated with chemotherapy for their cancer. People cannot take part if they need to take medicines to suppress their immune system, have blockages or bleeding in their gut, have specific uncontrollable cancers such as symptomatic or untreated cancers in the nervous system, or have a specific heart condition, or infections. The study treatments are either zolbetuximab with chemotherapy, or placebo with chemotherapy. People who take part will receive just 1 of the study treatments by chance. Study treatment will be double-blinded. That means that the people in the study and the study doctors will not know who takes which of the study treatments. Study treatment will be given in cycles. The study treatment is given to people slowly through a tube into a vein. This is called an infusion. People will have 4 infusions in 6-week (42-day) cycles as follows: - Zolbetuximab or placebo - 2 infusions in a cycle. - Chemotherapy (called modified FOLFOX6 or mFOLFOX6) - 3 infusions in a cycle. The first infusion is combined with zolbetuximab or placebo on day 1 of each cycle. People may receive zolbetuximab or placebo until their cancer worsens, they cannot tolerate the study treatment, or they need to start another cancer treatment. People will receive mFOLFOX6 for up to 6 months (4 study treatment cycles). After the 6 months people may receive chemotherapy containing folinic acid and fluorouracil instead of mFOLFOX6. People may receive folinic acid and fluorouracil chemotherapy for more than 6 months, or until their cancer worsens, they cannot tolerate the study treatment, or they need to start another cancer treatment. People will visit the clinic on certain days during their study treatment. The study doctors will check if people had any medical problems from taking zolbetuximab or the other study treatments. Also, people in the study will have health checks. On some visits they will have scans to check for any changes in their cancer. People will have the option of giving a tumor sample after their study treatment has finished. People will visit the clinic after they stop their study treatment. People who start treatment with licensed zolbetuximab or mFOLFOX6 outside of this study will not need to visit the clinic. People will be asked about any medical problems and will have a health check. People will visit the clinic at 1 month after they stop their study treatment. People will continue to have scans every 9 or 12 weeks to check for any changes in their cancer. People will have telephone health checks every 3 months. The number of visits and checks done at each visit will depend on the health of each person and whether they completed their study treatment or not.

  • GammaTile and Stupp in Newly Diagnosed GBM

    “Volunteer for research and contribute to discoveries that may improve health care for you, your family, and your community!”

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    In summary, standard of care postoperative chemoradiation for patients with newly diagnosed GBM does not routinely provide durable local control or prolonged overall survival. As discussed above it seems unlikely that patient outcomes will be significantly improved with radiation dose escalation given at the time of the EBRT boost. However, as most failures are local, improving LC could potentially improve the OS of patients. To do this, we propose a shift in the traditional radiation paradigm. This study will assess the feasibility and tolerability of adding GT radiation therapy as an upfront boost at the time of maximum safe resection, along with the backbone of the current standard of care approach, concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide +/- TTF, for patients with newly diagnosed GBM. GT, a novel brain brachytherapy device utilizing Cs-131 embedded in bioresorbable collagen tiles, offers a more sophisticated carrier and a shorter half-life radioisotope, Cs-131. Use of this device allows for radiation initiation at an earlier time point and a more rapid dose delivery and possibly more effective tumor control particularly for rapidly proliferating tumors such as GBM. Two prospective studies have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of re-irradiation with GT in patients with recurrent GBM. The overarching goal of this single-arm, open label phase 4 study is to determine the feasibility and tolerability of treating patients with GammaTile in combination with the Stupp Protocol and how to proceed with testing this treatment in a future, larger, randomized clinical study. The aims of the study are to demonstrate that the use of GammaTile at the time of surgery is well tolerated and does not delay the start of the Stupp protocol. Efficacy outcomes (e.g., LC, OS, PFS) will also be described.

  • Oral ABBV-744 Tablet Alone or in Combination With Oral Ruxolitinib Tablet or Oral Navitoclax Tablet in Adult Participants With Myelofibrosis

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    Myelofibrosis (MF) is a bone marrow illness that affects blood-forming tissues in the body. MF disturbs the body's normal production of blood cells, causing extensive scarring in the bone marrow. This leads to severe anemia, weakness, fatigue, and an enlarged spleen. The purpose of this study is to see how safe and tolerable ABBV-744 is, when given alone, and in combination with ruxolitinib or navitoclax, for adult participants with MF. ABBV-744 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of MF. The study has 4 segments - A, B, C, and D. In Segment A, the safe dosing regimen of ABBV-744 is identified and then, given alone as monotherapy. In Segment B, C, and D, combination therapies of ABBV-744 with either ruxolitinib or navitoclax are given. Adult participants with a diagnosis of MF will be enrolled. Around 130 participants will be enrolled in 60 sites worldwide. In Segment A, participants will receive different doses and schedules of oral ABBV-744 tablet to identify safe dosing regimen. Additional participants will be enrolled at the identified monotherapy dosign regimen. In Segment B, participants will receive oral ruxolitinib and ABBV-744 will be given as "add-on" therapy. In Segment C, participants will receive ABBV-744 and oral navitoclax. In Segment D, participants will receive ABBV-744 and ruxolitinib. Participants will receive treatment until disease progression or the participants are not able to tolerate the study drugs. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood and bone marrow tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.
