NCT05281471
The OnPrime study is a multi-center, randomized open-label phase 3 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of Olvi-Vec followed by platinum-doublet chemotherapy and bevacizumab compared to the Active Comparator Arm with Physician's Choice of chemotherapy and bevacizumab in women diagnosed with platinum-resistant/refractory ovarian cancer (includes fallopian tube cancer and primary peritoneal cancer). This Phase III trial builds on the efficacy and safety data reported in the previous Phase II VIRO-15 trial with promising objective response rate and progression-free survival observed in heavily pre-treated patients with platinum-resistant/refractory ovarian cancer. The phase II results also showed that the intra-peritoneal route of delivery was efficient in generating tumor cell killing and immune activation, and led to clinical reversal of platinum-resistance or refractoriness in this difficult-to-treat patient population.
NCT02496208
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best doses of cabozantinib s-malate and nivolumab with or without ipilimumab in treating patients with genitourinary (genital and urinary organ) tumors that have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Cabozantinib s-malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether giving cabozantinib s-malate and nivolumab alone or with ipilimumab works better in treating patients with genitourinary tumors.
NCT00106925
This study will provide follow-up evaluation and care of patients who have undergone allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplantation at the NIH Clinical Center. Patients are monitored for their response to treatment, disease relapse, and later-occurring effects of the transplant. Patients between 10 and 80 years of age who received a donor stem cell transplant at the NIH Clinical Center under an NHLBI protocol may be eligible for this study. Candidates must have had their first transplant at least 3 years before entering the current study. Participants are generally seen in the clinic every 12 months for some or all of the following procedures: * Periodic physical examinations, eye examinations, and blood and urine tests. * Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy: A sample of bone marrow is obtained for microscopic examination. The patient is given local anesthesia or conscious sedation. An area of the hipbone is numbed, a thin needle is inserted through the skin into the bone, and a small amount of marrow is withdrawn. * Tissue biopsy: A small piece of tissue or tumor is obtained for microscopic examination. Depending on the site of the biopsy, the tissue may be removed using a cookie cutter-like "punch" instrument, a needle, or a knife. The area is numbed and the tissue is removed with the appropriate tool. * Imaging tests to visualize organs, tissues, and cellular activity in specific tissues. For these tests, the patient lies on a table that slides into the scanner. They may include the following: 1. Nuclear scans use a sensitive camera to track a small amount of radioactive material (radioisotope) that is given to the patient by mouth or through a vein. The scan may show abnormal areas of tissue in the bones, liver, spleen, kidney, brain, thyroid, or spine. 2. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses a magnetic field and radio waves to examine small sections of body organs and tissues. 3. Computerized tomography (CT) uses x-rays and can be done from different angles to provide a 3-dimensional view of tissues and organs. 4. Positron emission tomography (PET) uses a fluid with a radioisotope attached to it to show cellular activity in specific tissues. The fluid is given through a vein and travels to the cells that are most active (like cancer cells), showing if there is an actively growing tumor. * Pulmonary (lung) function tests: The patient breathes into a machine that measures the volume of air the person can move into and out of the lungs. * Heart function tests may include the following: 1. Electrocardiogram (EKG) evaluates the electrical activity of the heart. Electrodes placed on the chest transmit information from the heart to a machine. 2. Echocardiogram (Echo) is an ultrasound test that uses sound waves to create an image of the heart and examine the function of the heart chambers and valves. 3. Multiple gated acquisition scan (MUGA) is a nuclear medicine test that uses a small amount of radioactive chemical injected into a vein. A special scanner creates an image of the heart for examining the beating motion of the muscle. Disease relapse or progression, or transplant-related problems may be treated with standard medical, radiation, or surgical therapy, or patients may be offered experimental therapy. ...
NCT02315612
Background: \- One type of cancer therapy takes blood cells from a person, changes them in a lab, then gives the cells back to the person. In this study, researchers are using an anti-CD22 gene, a virus, and an immune receptor to change the cells. Objective: \- To see if giving anti-CD22 Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) cells to young people with certain cancers is safe and effective. Eligibility: \- People ages 1-39 with a leukemia or lymphoma that has not been cured by standard therapy. Design: * Participants will be screened to ensure their cancer cells express the CD22 protein. They will also have medical history, physical exam, blood and urine tests, heart tests, scans, and x-rays. They may give spinal fluid or have bone marrow tests. * Participants may have eye and neurologic exams. * Participants will get a central venous catheter or a catheter in a large vein. * Participants will have white blood cells removed. Blood is removed through a needle in an arm. White blood cells are removed. The rest of the blood is returned by needle in the other arm. * The cells will be changed in a laboratory. * Participants will get two IV chemotherapy drugs over 4 days. Some will stay in the hospital for this. * All participants will be in the hospital to get anti-CD22 CAR cells through IV. They will stay until any bad side effects are gone. * Participants will have many blood tests. They may repeat some screening exams. * Participants will have monthly visits for 2-3 months, then every 3-6 months. They may repeat some screening exams. * Participants will have follow-up for 15 years.
NCT06093867
Background: Stem cell transplants (called hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, or HSCT) are used to treat various diseases. But when the cells for this procedure are donated by someone other than the person who receives the HSCT ( allogeneic HSCT ), the recipient has an increased risk of lung inflammation and scarring. This happens when their immune cells attack healthy lung cells. In this natural history study, researchers will look for the best ways to detect developing lung inflammations earlier after an HSCT. Objective: To see if certain tests can detect early signs of lung inflammation in people after HSCT. Eligibility: People aged 5 to 70 years who will have HSCT as part of another NIH study. Design: Participants will undergo these tests prior to their HSCT. These tests will then be repeated regularly for 2 years: Ultra-low dose computed tomography (CT) scans. Participants will lie on a table that slides through a machine; the machine uses X-rays to get pictures of the inside of the body. This type of scan uses less radiation than normal CT scans. Bronchoscopy with lavage: Participants will be sedated. A flexible tube will be inserted through the mouth and into the airways. Salt water will be squirted into the lung, then sucked out to collect cells and fluids from the lung. Another tube with a camera may be inserted into the airways to take pictures. Blood tests. Blood will be drawn every 2 to 4 weeks. Pulmonary function tests. Participants will breathe into a machine to test their lung function. They will see how far they can walk in 6 minutes.
NCT06066138
Background: A type of drug called monoclonal antibody immune checkpoint inhibitors are often used in cancer treatment. These drugs help the body s immune system fight cancer by blocking proteins that cause cancer cells to grow. One of these drugs (atezolizumab) is approved to treat certain cancers. Researchers want to find out if lower doses of this drug might provide the same benefit with fewer adverse effects. Objective: To test different doses and timing of atezolizumab for people with cancer. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with cancer that has spread locally or to other organs. They must be eligible for treatment with the study drug. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood tests and imaging scans. They will provide a sample of tissue from their tumor. Atezolizumab is administered through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will take this drug alone or combined with other drugs prescribed for their care. The first 2 treatments will be done per the FDA recommended dose and schedule. Before administering the second dose of the study drug, researchers will check the level of the drug in the participant s blood. Depending on those results, their 3rd dose will be scheduled 2 to 6 weeks later. For the 3rd dose of the study drug, participants will switch to the FDA minimum dosage. Dosages of any other drugs will not change. Researchers will continue to test the levels of the drug in participants blood before each treatment for 16 weeks. After that, these levels will be tested every 3 months. Study treatment may last up to 2 years....
NCT00068003
Background: The NCI Surgery Branch has developed experimental therapies that involve taking white blood cells from patients' tumor or from their blood, growing them in the laboratory in large numbers, and then giving the cells back to the patient. Objective: This study will collect white blood cells from normal volunteers and white blood cells and/or tumor cells, from patients who have been screened for and are eligible for a NCI Surgery Branch treatment protocol. The cells collected from normal volunteers will be used as growth factors for the cells during the period of laboratory growth. The cells and/or tumor from patients will be used to make the cell treatment product. Eligibility: Patients must be eligible for a NCI Surgery Branch Treatment Protocol Normal Volunteers must meet the criteria for blood donation Design Both patients and normal Volunteers will undergo apheresis. Patients will then undergo further testing as required by the treatment protocol. There is no required follow up for normal volunteers.
NCT07195695
This study is open to adults 18 years and older who have early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Their cancer must have a specific change in a gene called HER2. Genes provide the instructions for making proteins, and this change leads to a faulty HER2 protein. People can join if their lung cancer was removed by surgery, and they have already received certain other anti-cancer treatments. The purpose of this study is to find out if a study medicine called zongertinib helps people with this type of cancer live longer without their cancer coming back after surgery, when compared to standard treatment. Zongertinib is being developed to target the faulty HER2 protein, which can cause cancer cells to grow. In this study, participants are assigned by chance to one of two treatment groups, with an equal chance of being in either group. One group takes the study medicine, zongertinib, by mouth once a day for up to 3 years. The other group receives a standard treatment, chosen by their doctor. This standard treatment may be an immunotherapy medicine given by infusion into a vein every 3 or 4 weeks for up to 1 year, or regular check-ups without active study medicine (observation). Participants can be in this study for up to about 11 years. During this time, they visit the study site regularly for check-ups and study-related tests. The frequency of these visits varies depending on their treatment and how long they have been in the study. In addition to visits at the study site, participants in some treatment groups will also have phone calls with the study team every 3 weeks to check on their health between their scheduled visits. Doctors check for any signs of cancer coming back using imaging scans (like CT or MRI scans); these scans are generally done every 3 months for the first 2 years, then every 6 months for the next 3 years, and then yearly. Participants also fill in questionnaires about their overall wellbeing, health and symptoms. Throughout the study, doctors also check participants' health and note any unwanted effects.
NCT05098132
This is a phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label study. The phase 1 portion is a dose escalation and expansion study of STK-012 as monotherapy and in combination therapy in patients with selected advanced solid tumors. The phase 2 portion is a randomized study of STK-012 in combination with standard of care (SoC) pembrolizumab, pemetrexed, and carboplatin versus SoC, in patients with first line, PD-L1 negative, non-squamous, non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT04190550
This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of navtemadlin when given together with the standard chemotherapy drugs cytarabine and idarubicin in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Navtemadlin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking a protein called MDM2 that is needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cytarabine and idarubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving navtemadlin with cytarabine and idarubicin may stabilize cancer for longer when compared to giving usual treatments alone.
NCT07213804
This is a clinical study that has two parts. It is testing a potential new medicine called Sofetabart Mipitecan (LY4170156) for people with certain types of ovarian, peritoneal, and fallopian tube cancers. Part A looks at participants whose cancer no longer responds to platinum-based treatments (a type of chemotherapy). Part B looks at participants whose cancer still responds to platinum-based treatments. The researchers want to find out if Sofetabart Mipitecan works better than the usual treatments that doctors use now and to better understand how safe it is. Each participant's time in the study will depend on how they respond to the treatment.
NCT04559139
This phase II/III trial compares the effect of adding chemotherapy before and after surgery versus after surgery alone (usual treatment) in treating patients with stage II-III gallbladder cancer. Chemotherapy drugs, such as gemcitabine and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller; therefore, may reduce the extent of surgery. Additionally, it may make it easier for the surgeon to distinguish between normal and cancerous tissue. Giving chemotherapy after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells. This study will determine whether giving chemotherapy before surgery increases the length of time before the cancer may return and whether it will increase a patient's life span compared to the usual approach.
NCT05198804
This is a Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety, clinical activity, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of ZN-c3 in combination with niraparib and of ZN-c3 Monotherapy in subjects with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.
NCT01386385
This phase I/II partially randomized trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given together with radiation therapy, carboplatin, and paclitaxel and to see how well it works in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy, carboplatin, and paclitaxel are more effective with or without veliparib in treating non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT06852222
The purpose of this study is to assess how bleximenib and Venetoclax (VEN)+ Azacitidine (AZA) works as compared to placebo and VEN+AZA alone for the treatment of participants with newly diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with a mutation in the NPM1 or KMT2A gene.
NCT04065399
Phase 1 dose escalation will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of revumenib in participants with acute leukemia. In Phase 2, participants will be enrolled in 4 indication-specific expansion cohorts to determine the efficacy, short- and long-term safety, and tolerability of revumenib.
NCT05275439
SL03-Old Hundred(OHD)-104 is designed as a Phase 1a/1b open label, trial to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), and preliminary efficacy of SL-172154 monotherapy as well as in combination with azacitidine or in combination with Azacitidine and Venetoclax.
NCT04635384
AlloHeme is a chimerism test service that utilizes NGS technology to analyze SNP loci to quantify donor and recipient cells by measuring genomic DNA. Before transplant, patient and donor peripheral blood sample will be collected to identify informative marker for routine chimerism testing and baseline establishment for AlloHeme. Post-transplant blood or bone marrow samples are obtained and compared to the baseline sample profiles to calculate % chimerism of recipient cells in the blood and/or bone marrow samples. Cell selection from blood and bone marrow samples is applied to evaluate chimerism in specific cell subtypes that are relevant to AML and MDS diseases (CD3+ T lymphocytes, CD33+ Myeloid cells and CD15+ Granulocyte cell subtypes from blood and CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells from bone marrow).
NCT06406114
Cephalosporin antibiotics are commonly used but can result in allergic reactions and anaphylaxis. There is no clear diagnostic approach for cephalosporin-allergic patients, and guidance for the use of other antibiotics in allergic patients is based on side chain chemical similarity and limited skin testing evidence. This project includes a clinical trial and mechanistic studies to optimize the approach to cephalosporin allergy and advance future diagnostics.
