A Phase 2, Multi-Arm, Multi-Cohort, Open-Label Study to Evaluate The Safety a Efficacy of Cretostimogene Grenadenorepvec In Participants With High-Risk Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC)

The purpose of this Phase 2 clinical trial is to study treating patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) with an investigational drug, Cretostimogene and DDM. Participants will be assigned to either Cohort A or Cohort B depending on whether they have previously been treated with BCG (Bacillus Calmette-Guerin) for NMIBC.

Eligible participants will receive the study drug, Cretostimogene every week for 6 treatments, followed by a maintenance period as directed by the Investigator. For the first 2 years after treatment initiation, participants will be assessed for disease status every 3 months by urine cytology and cystoscopy, with directed TURBT/biopsy (if indicated). CT urogram or MRU will be performed every 6 months. Thereafter, efficacy assessments will be performed at 6-month intervals for up to an additional 2 years

PSCI 23-130 RASolve 301: Phase 3 Multicenter, Open Label, Randomized Study of RMC-6236 versus Docetaxel in Patients with Previously Treated Locally Advanced or Metastatic RAS[MUT] NSCLC

This trial is looking at the progression free survival and overall survival in patients treated with docetaxel alone and those treated with docetaxel and RAS G12X-C

This study has 4 periods: 1. Pre-screening period (to provide your tumor genetic information) 2. Screening period (before you begin the study to see if you qualify for the study). This is when you will have all the testing done to make sure it is safe for you to join the study. it may require several trips to the hospital. 3. Study Treatment period (when you will receive the study treatment; this occurs in 21-day cycles). this is when you will be taking the study medication. For the first cycle of treatment you will need to come to the clinic about 3 times to make sure you are ok while taking the study drug. From cycle 2 onward you will need to come to the clinic twice. 4. Follow-up period (to check on you after your study treatment is finished) and then we will check to see how you are doing every three months. It is important that you come to all of your visits.

Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) with Low-Dose Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide for Prophylaxis of Graft-versus-Host Disease in Hematological Malignancies

This study is testing whether a lower dose of a medicine called cyclophosphamide (25 mg per kg), given after an allogeneic stem cell transplant, can reduce serious side effects and improve outcomes. We are enrolling people who are receiving a reduced-intensity or non-myeloablative (less intensive) stem cell transplant. We will follow participants for one year after their transplant to see if they stay free from severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), cancer relapse, or death. We will also look at overall survival, rates of GVHD, infections, donor cell recovery, and other side effects.

You must attend all scheduled study visits, tell the study doctor about all medications you are taking (including over-the-counter medicines), and let the study team know how you are feeling. Before joining the study, you will have routine health checks. These include breathing tests (called pulmonary function tests, or PFTs) to see how well your lungs work, and a heart scan (MUGA scan or echocardiogram) to see how well your heart is pumping. As part of this study, you will be given a low dose of cyclophosphamide (25 mg/kg) on day +3 and +4 after your stem cell transplant. You will be carefully monitored for any side effects, and the study team will evaluate your risk for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and disease relapse.

Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial Comparing Standard of Care Adjuvant Temozolomide With or Without 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) With Concomitant Low Intensity Diffuse Ultrasound (LIDU) Sonodynamic Therapy (SDT) System In Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma After Completion of Chemoradiotherapy

This is a Phase 2b clinical research study, which is investigating the use of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) combined with a Low-Intensity Diffuse Ultrasound (LIDU) system for Sonodynamic Therapy (SDT) in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. LIDU is the name of the investigational SDT device developed by Alpheus Medical. SDT includes the combination of a sonosensitizing drug, also known as a sonosensitizer, that will only be absorbed by tumor cells, and ultrasound to activate the sonosensitizer and cause damage to the tumor cells. The SDT tested in this study includes the oral drug 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) as an investigational sonosensitizer. This investigational treatment is being tested as a potential treatment for your cancer, SDT has been shown in previous cell and animal studies to potentially have an anti-cancer effect.

In this research study there will be two treatment groups. One treatment group will receive standard of care maintenance temozolomide with 5-ALA + SDT, you will have a 50% of receiving this treatment group. The other treatment group wll receive standard of care maintenance temozolomide with placebo, an oral solution that will look like and taste like 5-ALA but will have no active ingredients in it, and sham SDT, a program will be run on the SDT device that will look and sound the same, but will not deliver ultrasound, you will have a 50% chance of receiving this treatment group. If you are eligible for the study, and agree to participate you will be randomized, like the flip of a coin, to one of the two treatment groups, neither you nor your doctors will know which treatment group you have been assigned.

PSCI 24-072 A Phase 3 Randomized Study Comparing Teclistamab in Combination with Daratumumab SC and Lenalidomide (Tec-DR) and Talquetamab in Combination with Daratumumab SC and Lenalidomide (Tal-DR) versus Daratumumab SC, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone (DRd) in Participants with Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Who are Either Ineligible or not Intended for Autologous Stem Cell Transplant as Initial Therapy MajesTEC-7

This trial is designed for patients who are newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM) but who do not want or cannot have an autologous stem cell transplant. Teclistamab and talquetamab have been used alone along with other drugs in the treatment of MM. this study hopes to add either drug to a standard treatment for MM at time of diagnosis to see how effective it is in keeping the MM quiet conpared to standard treatment alone.

Participants must be willing to come to all clinic study visits. The first cycle of treatment the participant will be hospitalized to make sure they do not have any side effects. You will be treated every four weeks as an outpatient until the treatment no longer works. You should tell your study team all side effects you feel and all medication you are taking.

$54.00 per completed visit. A caregiver may receive compensation of the same amount.

PSCI 24-147 A MULTICENTER, RANDOMIZED, OPEN-LABEL, PHASE 3 TRIAL OF TRASTUZUMAB DERUXTECAN (ENHERTU®) PLUS CHEMOTHERAPY PLUS OR MINUS PEMBROLIZUMAB VERSUS CHEMOTHERAPY PLUS TRASTUZUMAB PLUS OR MINUS PEMBROLIZUMAB AS FIRST-LINE TREATMENT IN PARTICIPANTS WITH UNRESECTABLE, LOCALLY ADVANCED OR METASTATIC HER2-POSITIVE GASTRIC OR GASTROESOPHAGEAL JUNCTION (GEJ) CANCER (DESTINY-GASTRIC05)

To see if the combination of trastuzumab deruxtecan (ENHERTU, T-DXd, DS-8201a) plus a fluoropyrimidine plus pembrolizumab versus SoC chemotherapy plus trastuzumab plus pembrolizumab is better in treating gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer

Participants will need to come to the clinic twice before they are able to start study treatment. The first time is to sign a consent form allowing their tumor tissue that has been stored to be spent for testing. This test will look to see if the tissue has changes in it to see if the medication will work. If the tissue has the receptive changes a second consent form will be signed to participate in the study. You will need to have tests done to make sure it is safe for you to participate in the study. If the tests results determine that is it safe, you will begin treatment. The first month of treatment you will need to come to the clinic every week for blood tests and to see how you are feeling. After that you will need to come to the clinic once a month for treatment and blood tests. You will also have scans done at certain time in the study. Those scans will tell the doctor if the study treatment is working to make your cancer go away. You will stay on this treatment until it stops working. After that, you will come back to the clinic for two more visits to see how you are feeling.

Gaining insight into parental decision-making for enrollment in early phase and precision medicine clinical trials for children diagnosed with cancer: The BEAT-PED mixed-methods study

This study aims to understand how parents make decisions about enrolling their child in an early phase or precision medicine cancer clinical trial. We will explore parents’ decision-making process, values, goals, and views of risks and benefits, as well as their psychosocial outcomes. Participants will be asked to complete a set of questionnaires, and they may choose to take part in an optional interview to discuss their decision-making in more depth. Please note that parents whose child was offered a upfront standard of care clinical trial at diagnosis (i.e., a phase III trial comparing treatments that are already accepted and evidence-based, rather than novel or experimental agents) are not be eligible to participate.

This study entails completing an anonymous questionnaire asking items related to you and your child’s demographic information, how you are doing on key psychosocial outcomes (e.g., psychological distress, anxiety, depression), your perceived moral obligation, your emotional expressivity and authenticity, your coping style, your level of trust in the provider, and your perceived social support. This survey may take up to 1 hour to complete. At the end of the questionnaire you will be asked if you would be interested in participating in a one-time 30-60 minute conversation to provide a more in depth discussion on these topics. If you are interested, a study team member will reach out to you to provide more information and have you sign a separate consent form for that part of the study.

Developmental Differences in Physical and Psychosocial Outcomes in Children and AYAs with Cancer and Survivors: The Pediatric Adjustment to Treatment and Healing (PATH) Study

This study examines how physical health and emotional well-being differ across ages in children, adolescents, and young adults with cancer, cancer survivors, and individuals without a history of cancer. The goal of the study is to better understand how experiences such as fatigue, pain, sleep, physical activity, mood, anxiety, and quality of life vary at different ages and at different points in the cancer journey (during treatment versus after treatment), and how factors like treatment intensity and family resources may influence these experiences. Participants will be asked to complete a set of online questionnaires about their physical health, daily functioning, and emotional well-being. No medical procedures or treatments are involved.

Participants will be asked to complete a set of online questionnaires about their physical health, daily functioning, and emotional well-being. No medical procedures or treatments are involved. The questionnaires will take approximately 45 minutes to complete. - For children aged between 2 and 7 years old, we ask that parents report on behalf of their child. - For children/adolescents aged between 8 and 17 years old, we ask that they complete the survey themselves. Parents may also report on behalf of their child if the child is unwilling or unable to complete the survey themselves. - For young adults aged between 18 and 24 years old, we ask that they complete the survey themselves. Parents may not complete the survey on their behalf.

PSCI #25-129: NRG-GY037: A Phase III Study of Induction Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy Followed By Chemoradiation and Pembrolizumab Vs Chemoradiation and Pembrolizumab Both Followed By Pembrolizumab For High Risk Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer

To determine whether induction IO and chemotherapy prior to CCRT+IO improves progression-free survival (PFS) compared to CCRT+IO alone.

The patient will either get induction therapy, chemoradiation with pembrolizumab, and pembrolizumab maintenance therapy for up to 2 years, or chemoradiation and pembrolizumab followed by pembrolizumab maintenance therapy for up to 2 years. Induction therapy means they will receive chemotherapy with cisplatin and paclitaxel once a week for 6 weeks, plus pembrolizumab every 3 weeks for 2 doses, before starting chemoradiation and pembrolizumab. After the patient finishes treatment, they will check the patient every 3 months for the first 2 years after treatment. After that, they will check every 6 months for 3 years. This means the patient will keep seeing their doctor for 5 years after treatment.

MOMENTUM-1: A MULTICENTER, RANDOMIZED, OPEN-LABEL, PHASE II STUDY OF [177LU]LU-DOTATATE IN ADULTS WITH PROGRESSIVE INTRACRANIAL GRADE 1-3 MENINGIOMA

We are doing this study because we want to find out if this study therapy is better or worse than the usual drug therapy for your meningioma. The usual is defined as the standard of care most people get for meningiomas that have come back after treatment.

Your participation in this study will last a maximum of 4 years. If you are randomized to Group 1, your study doctor will discuss the usual drug treatment options with you and you will be followed for up to 24 months. Your total participation could be up to 14 research visits which includes up to 6 months of treatment and 18 months of follow up. If your meningioma progresses within the first 12 months, you may switch to Group 2 and the 24 month follow-up clock restarts. If you are randomized to Group 2, you will receive the study drug once every 4 weeks for up to 4 times (total duration of 3 months). If after 4 doses your meningioma has not grown and you are tolerating the study treatment, you may receive 2 more doses of study drug. Your total participation for Group 2 could be up to 14 research visits which includes up to 6 months of treatment and 18 months of follow up.

Phase 1 of GAME-ONc (Gaming for Adolescent Mental Health and Empowerment in Oncology): A Qualitative Focus Group Study to Inform the Development of a Video Game Intervention for Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer

The GAME-ONc Study aims to explore how video games can support teens and young adults going through cancer treatment. We will talk with adolescents and young adults with cancer, their parents, and healthcare providers to better understand what emotional, social, and practical challenges young people face during treatment, and how a video game intervention might help. The study will also ask participants what kinds of game features they’d like to see, such as whether the game should be single-player or involve someone else, what topics it should include (like coping strategies, health behaviors, or ways to connect with others), and how to make it easy and enjoyable to use. Ultimately, the feedback from this project will guide the design of a video game prototype tailored for teenagers and young adults with cancer, setting the stage for future testing and development.

Participants will complete a brief demographic and gameplay preferences questionnaire and then take part in a one-time focus group session (approximately 1-1.5 hours) conducted via Microsoft Teams or in person. During the focus group, participants will discuss psychosocial needs of adolescents and young adults with cancer and share their opinions on desired features, content, and usability of a proposed video game intervention. The session will be audio and video recorded for research purposes.
