PSCI-23-089: CAFs (Combination of Atezolizumab and Pirfenidone in Second-line and Beyond NSCLC): a Phase I/II study

Researchers in this trial will be using a combination of two drugs to determine if the combination will help in treating cancer by shrinking tumors and controlling cancer growth.

You will need to come to the clinic for at least six visits while you are taking the study medication. Those visits will include see the study doctor, having blood drawn, and giving you the study drug. When you are no longer taking the study drug you will be seen about 2 months after that followed by phone follow ups between 6 and 8 months after stopping the study drug and then every year for 2 years. Those yearly visits can also be done by looking at you medical record.

BCC015: Phase II Trial of Eflornithine (DFMO) and Etoposide for Relapsed/Refractory Neuroblastoma

This is a study of the drug DFMO (difluoromethylornithine) for neuroblastoma that has returned or not responded to treatment. DFMO is an oral drug that inhibits a certain enzyme (protein) in blood which is associated with a bad outcome in neuroblastoma cases. Cancer cells have pathways that drive the cancer to grow and DFMO targets the specific pathway of this enzyme to turn these cells off.

You will have exams, tests, and procedures while on the study to evaluate whether you can participate in the study and how you are doing while on the study. These include physical exams, blood tests, urine tests, bone marrow aspirate and biopsies, heart tests, hearing tests, and imaging evaluations such as CT scans and MIBG or PET scans. You will receive treatment on this study for a total of about 2 years. After treatment, you will have follow-up examinations and medical tests. We would like to continue to find out about your health for about 5 years after you complete the study.

A Phase II/III Study of Maintenance Nivolumab versus Observation in HPV Positive OPCA (PSCI# 20-016) (EA3161)

The purpose of this study is to compare the usual treatment alone (radiation and chemotherapy) to adding maintenance nivolumab to the usual treatment. The addition of nivolumab to the usual treatment could shrink your cancer or prevent it from returning. But, it could also cause side effects, which are described in the risks section below.This study will help the study doctors find out if this different approach is better than the usual approach. To decide if it is better, the study doctors will be looking to see if the nivolumab increases the lifetime of the patient without progression for 10 years.This immunotherapy drug, nivolumab, is already approved by the FDA for use in advanced and incurable head and neck cancer. But, most of the time it is not used until the cancer is very advanced and chemotherapy stops working. In this study we believe the use of nivolumab has a chance of preventing the cancer from coming back for patients with your type of cancer. There will be about 286 people taking part in the first part (phase II) of the study and 458 more people taking part in second part (phase III), if the results of the phase II portion are promising and if there is evidence that nivolumab may prolong your life.

The purpose of this study is to compare the usual treatment alone (radiation and chemotherapy) to adding maintenance nivolumab to the usual treatment.

Randomized Phase II/III Trial of Radiation with High-Dose Cisplatin (100 mg/m2) Every Three Weeks versus Radiation with Low-Dose Weekly Cisplatin (40 mg/m2) for Patients with Locoregionally Advanced Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (SCCHN) (PSCI# 21-207) (NRG-HN009)

The purpose of this study is to compare two usual treatment approaches to your head and neck cancer: high-dose cisplatin given every 3 weeks with radiation to low-dose cisplatin given weekly with radiation. The first part of this study will help the study doctors find out if the low-dose cisplatin approach is better tolerated than the high-dose cisplatin approach. To decide if it is better, the study doctors will be looking to see if there are fewer side effects for patients who receive low-dose cisplatin weekly compared to patients who receive high-dose cisplatin every 3 weeks. The second part of this study will also help the study doctors find out if the low-dose cisplatin approach will extend your life by at least the same amount of time as the high-dose cisplatin approach. There will be 464 people in the first part of the study. If the study goes on to the second part, there will be 786 additional people. Overall, there will be a total of up to 1250 people taking part in this study.

BCC018: A Phase II Study of Naxitamab Added to Induction Therapy for Subjects with Newly Diagnosed High-Risk Neuroblastoma

This study is being done to learn if it is safe to add naxitamab to standard therapy during the Induction phase of care for patients with newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma. Naxitmab is an immunotherapy agent which trains your immune system to target your tumor in a more specific way than chemotherapy does.

This study has 3 phases- screening, treatment, and follow up. If you join the study, during screening we will test a sample of your tumor along with your blood. The tumor sample will be obtained at the same time as you are having surgery or a biopsy. Other testing will be done to make sure you are eligible to receive treatment. If you are eligible for treatment, you will receive five 21 day cycles of anti-cancer medication (induction chemotherapy) along with naxitamab. You will have to stay in the hospital to receive this treatment for at least 6 days of each 21 day cycle. If your screening testing also shows a certain genetic change in your tumor, we may also add a medication that is targeted at that change. If your tumor does not respond adequately to the initial cycles, we may give up to three additional 21 day cycles of chemotherapy with naxitamab. You will also have procedures at certain timepoints during induction that are standard of care for your tumor. These include collecting stem cells for use later in your therapy after Cycle 2. After Cycle 4, you will have surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible. The treatment phase will last about 8 months, after which you will be in follow up. During your time on the study, we will ask to collect research samples of blood, bone marrow, and tumor. We will be monitoring your progress and health throughout your time on treatment and in follow up.

PSCI 24-114: A Phase II Study Of Tailored Adjuvant Therapy In Pole-Mutated And P53- Wildtype/NSMP Early-Stage Endometrial Cancer (Rainbow Blue &amp; Taper)

This study is to find out if there are types of early-stage endometrial cancer that require less treatment than the usual approach. Based on laboratory testing of the cancer and the extent of spread at time of surgery. The study doctor may recommend Sub-study A or Sub-study B. Based on this assessment, subjects may receive no therapy (observation) or less therapy (de-escalated therapy) than the subject would have received as part of your usual treatment.

Treatment that will be recommended to the subject will be based on laboratory testing of the cancer and the extent of spread at time of surgery. The study doctor might recommend that the subject participate in Sub-study A or Sub-study B. Based on this assessment, the subject may receive no therapy (observation) or less therapy (de-escalated therapy) than the subject would have received as part of their usual treatment After the subject finishes study treatment, and even if they stop treatment early, the study doctor will continue to follow the subject's condition, watch the subject for side effects and keep track of the subjects health. The subject will be seen after 3 months and 6 months, then every 6 months for 3 years, and then every year after starting the study until the study closes. The subject may be seen more often if subject's study doctor thinks it is necessary.

NRG-GU007, Randomized Phase II Trial of Niraparib with Standard Combination Radiotherapy and Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) in High Risk Prostate Cancer (With Initial Phase I) (NADIR*) (NCT 04037254) (PSCI# 20-104)

The purpose of this study is to compare the usual treatment alone to using the study drug niraparib plus the usual treatment. The addition of niraparib to the usual treatment could prevent your cancer from growing or returning. But, it could also cause side effects, which are described in the risks section below. This study will help the study doctors find out if this different approach is better, the same, or worse than the usual approach. To be better, the study approach should increase the chance of remaining cancer free to 50 out of 100 participants after 2 years, or a 20% improvement compared to the usual approach.

A Phase II/III Trial of De-intensified Radiation Therapy for Patients with Early-Stage, P16 Positive Oropharyngeal Cancer (NRG-HN005) (PSCI# 20-011)

The purpose of the first part of this study is to compare the usual treatment of a standard-dose radiation given over 6 weeks with cisplatin chemotherapy to a reduced-dose radiation given over either 6 weeks with cisplatin or 5 weeks with the immunotherapy drug, nivolumab. A lower dose of radiation as compared to the usual radiation treatment dose could be as effective in lengthening the time without your cancer getting worse. Nivolumab with reduced-dose radiation may or may not be as effective in lengthening the time without your cancer getting worse. This study will help the study doctors find out if this different approach is the same or worse than the usual approach.

A Randomized Phase II Trial of Adjuvant Pembrolizumab versus Observation Following Curative Resectionfor Stage I Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with Primary Tumors Between 1-4 cm:Big Ten Cancer Research Consortium BTCRC-LUN18-153 (PSCI# 20-043)

This is a research study to find out if giving a drug called pembrolizumab after lung cancer surgery does a better job at keeping the cancer from coming back than surgery alone. The usual approach for patients who are not in a study is to be followed closely by their doctor to watch in case the cancer returns. Participants in this study will be assigned by chance (flip of a coin) to be watched closely by their doctor or to receive a drug called pembrolizumab. Pembrolizumab is given as an infusion inthe clinic once every six weeks. . You will have tests, exams and procedures that are part of your regular care and for study purposes. You will have scans every 12 weeks to make sure the cancer hasn’t come back. If you are assigned to receive pembrolizumab, you can continue to receive it for up to 1 year.

If you decide to take part in this study, you will be assigned to one of two groups. This is called randomization. A computer will assign you to a group in the study by chance. This is done by chance because no one knows if one study group is better or worse than the other. You will have an equal chance (50/50) of being assigned to either group.

A Phase Ib/II Study of Venetoclax (ABT-199) in Combination with Liposomal Vincristine in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory T-cell or B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (EA9152) (PSCI 18-047)

This study is being done to determine what effects (good and bad) the therapy venetoclax has on your type of cancer (acute lymphoblastic leukemia, also known as ALL). This investigational therapy will be added to what is a standard, liposomal vincristine, to treat relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It is hoped that venetoclax will help liposomal vincristine work better to kill your ALL, but it has not yet been proven.

venetoclax will be given orally in a tablet formulation once daily in 3 dose arms with a fixed, standard dose of intravenous (IV) liposomal vincristine 2.25mg/m2 weekly starting after a 2 week lead-in phase of venetoclax

PSCI 24-106 B: A Measurable Residual Disease (MRD) Focused, Phase II Study Of Venetoclax Plus Chemotherapy For Newly Diagnosed Younger Patients With Intermediate Risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Tier 1 Myelomatch Clinical Trial

Participants take part in this research study because they have a new diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Study is looking at to see if treatment can be improved by adding venetoclax to the usual chemotherapy: cytarabine and daunorubicin (also known as 7+3), or azacitidine? This study wants to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for this type of cancer. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for AML.

Participants will either get cytarabine + daunorubicin + venetoclax for up to 11 days, or you will get azacitidine + venetoclax for up to two months, or you will get cytarabine + daunorubicin for up to 7 days. Subjects treatment may be extended by a few weeks if subject needs additional therapy. Doctor will continue to follow your condition for 5 years and watch subject for side effects and keep track of their health. After study treatment, subjects may also be offered another clinical trial through the myeloMATCH study. Subjects will be followed on this study even if they continue onto another study. Follow-up includes a clinic visit 28 days after subjects treatment is complete, and clinic visits every 3 months for the first year, every 6 months for the second year, and annually for years 3-5 after treatment is completed.
