Testing What Happens When an Immunotherapy Drug (Pembrolizumab) is Given by Itself Compared to the Usual Treatment of Chemotherapy With Radiation After Surgery for Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma · Recurrent Hypopharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma · Recurrent Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

This phase II trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab alone compared to the usual approach (chemotherapy \[cisplatin and carboplatin\] plus radiation therapy) after surgery in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back (recurrent) or patients with a second head and neck cancer that is not from metastasis (primary). Radiation therapy uses high energy radiation or protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells. Carboplatin is also 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 cancer cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving pembrolizumab alone after surgery may work better than the usual approach in shrinking recurrent or primary head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Comparing Cytarabine + Daunorubicin Therapy Versus Cytarabine + Daunorubicin + Venetoclax Versus Venetoclax + Azacitidine in Younger Patients With Intermediate Risk AML (A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial)

Acute Myeloid Leukemia

This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial compares cytarabine with daunorubicin versus cytarabine with daunorubicin and venetoclax versus venetoclax with azacitidine for the treatment of younger patients with intermediate risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Cytarabine is a drug that inhibits some of the enzymes needed for deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) replication and repair and can slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. Daunorubicin is a drug that blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair, and it may kill cancer cells. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Azacitidine is a drug that interacts with DNA to activate tumor-suppressing genes, resulting in an anti-tumor effect. Adding venetoclax to cytarabine and daunorubicin, and adding venetoclax to azacitidine, may work better than the usual treatment of cytarabine with daunorubicin alone. To decide if they are better, the study doctors are looking to see if venetoclax increases the rate of elimination of AML in participants by 20% or more compared to the usual approach.

Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Patients With Newly Diagnosed Very Low-Risk and Low Risk Fusion Negative Rhabdomyosarcoma

Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma · Fusion-Negative Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma · Spindle Cell/Sclerosing Rhabdomyosarcoma

Rhabdomyosarcoma is a type of cancer that occurs in the soft tissues in the body. This phase III trial aims to maintain excellent outcomes in patients with very low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (VLR-RMS) while decreasing the burden of therapy using treatment with 24 weeks of vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) and examines the use of centralized molecular risk stratification in the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma. Another aim of the study it to find out how well patients with low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (LR-RMS) respond to standard chemotherapy when patients with VLR-RMS and patients who have rhabdomyosarcoma with DNA mutations get separate treatment. Finally, this study examines the effect of therapy intensification in patients who have RMS cancer with DNA mutations to see if their outcomes can be improved.

Shorter Chemo-Immunotherapy Without Anthracycline Drugs for Early-Stage Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Anatomic Stage I Breast Cancer AJCC v8 · Anatomic Stage II Breast Cancer AJCC v8 · Anatomic Stage IIIA Breast Cancer AJCC v8

This phase III trial compares the effects of shorter chemotherapy (chemo)-immunotherapy without anthracyclines to usual chemo-immunotherapy for the treatment of early-stage triple negative breast cancer. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called anti-microtubule agents. It stops cancer 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 cancer cells. Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. It may also lower the body's immune response. Docetaxel is in a class of medications called taxanes. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Doxorubicin is an anthracycline chemotherapy drug that damages DNA and may kill cancer cells. Pembrolizumab may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Shorter treatment without anthracycline chemotherapy may work the same as the usual anthracycline chemotherapy treatment for early-stage triple negative breast cancer.

A Study of the Drug Selinexor With Radiation Therapy in Patients With Newly-Diagnosed Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine (DIPG) Glioma and High-Grade Glioma (HGG)

Malignant Glioma

This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of selinexor given in combination with standard radiation therapy in treating children and young adults with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) or high-grade glioma (HGG) with a genetic change called H3 K27M mutation. It also tests whether combination of selinexor and standard radiation therapy works to shrink tumors in this patient population. Glioma is a type of cancer that occurs in the brain or spine. Glioma is considered high risk (or high-grade) when it is growing and spreading quickly. The term, risk, refers to the chance of the cancer coming back after treatment. DIPG is a subtype of HGG that grows in the pons (a part of the brainstem that controls functions like breathing, swallowing, speaking, and eye movements). This trial has two parts. The only difference in treatment between the two parts is that some subjects treated in Part 1 may receive a different dose of selinexor than the subjects treated in Part 2. In Part 1 (also called the Dose-Finding Phase), investigators want to determine the dose of selinexor that can be given without causing side effects that are too severe. This dose is called the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). In Part 2 (also called the Efficacy Phase), investigators want to find out how effective the MTD of selinexor is against HGG or DIPG. Selinexor blocks a protein called CRM1, which may help keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them. It is a type of small molecule inhibitor called selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINE). Radiation therapy uses high energy to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. The combination of selinexor and radiation therapy may be effective in treating patients with newly-diagnosed DIPG and H3 K27M-Mutant HGG.

Chemotherapy Combined With Immunotherapy Versus Immunotherapy Alone for Older Adults With Stage IIIB-IV Lung Cancer, The ACHIEVE Trial

Advanced Lung Non-Small Cell Carcinoma · Stage IIIB Lung Cancer AJCC v8 · Stage IIIC Lung Cancer AJCC v8

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding chemotherapy to immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) versus immunotherapy alone in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs 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 pembrolizumab and chemotherapy may help stabilize lung cancer.

Immunotherapy After Surgery for People Who Have No Remaining Cancer Cells After Standard Treatment for Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, INSIGHT Trial

Lung Non-Small Cell Carcinoma · Stage II Lung Cancer AJCC v8 · Stage IIIA Lung Cancer AJCC v8

This phase III trial compares durvalumab to the usual approach (patient observation) after surgery for the treatment of patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The usual approach for patients who are not in a study is to closely watch a patient's condition after surgery and to have regular visits with their doctor to watch for signs of the cancer coming back. Usually, patients do not receive further treatment unless the cancer returns. This study will help determine whether this different approach with durvalumab is better, the same, or worse than the usual approach of observation. Giving durvalumab may help patients live longer and prevent early-stage non-small cell lung cancer from coming back as compared to the usual approach.

Testing an Enhanced Digital Delivery Model for Inherited Cancer Genetic Testing in Young Adults With Cancer

Miscellaneous Neoplasm, Nos · Non-Neoplastic Condition, Nos

This phase III trial compares the use of a digital chatbot enabled intervention to standard remote genetic services for increasing uptake of genetic counseling and testing among adolescents and young adult (AYA) cancer patients. Genetic testing for cancer predisposition syndromes has become standard evidence-based practice and can inform enhanced screening and risk reducing measures to reduce cancer morbidity and mortality. Despite this, many AYAs are not receiving recommended genetic counseling and testing. Offering remote telehealth services can address access barriers and chatbots and texting interventions could enhance patient outcomes and reduce provider and staff time. The use of a digital chatbot enabled intervention may be equally as effective as standard remote genetic services in AYA cancer patients undergoing genetic testing.

A Phase II Nationwide, Fully Decentralized, Telemedicine Study of Pemigatinib in Adult Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer With FGFR Genetic Alterations

Advanced Pancreatic Carcinoma · Metastatic Pancreatic Carcinoma · Stage II Pancreatic Cancer AJCC v8

This phase II study evaluates how well pemigatinib works for the treatment of adult patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) and that have abnormal changes (alterations) in the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) gene. FGFR genes are genes that, when altered, can lead to and promote the growth of cancer in patients. Researchers want to test if using pemigatinib can block the function of these abnormal FGFR genes and prevent the tumor from growing and whether treatment can help improve overall quality of life.

Testing the Addition of an Antiangiogenic Drug (Bevacizumab) to Chemotherapy (Carboplatin and Paclitaxel) Combined With Immunotherapy (Pembrolizumab) for pMMR, TP53 Mutated Endometrial Cancer

Advanced Endometrial Carcinoma · Recurrent Endometrial Carcinoma

This phase III trial compares the effect of bevacizumab in combination with carboplatin, paclitaxel and pembrolizumab to the usual treatments of carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without pembrolizumab in treating patients with stage III, IVA or IVB mismatch repair protein proficient (pMMR) and TP53 mutated endometrial cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Adding bevacizumab to the combination of carboplatin, paclitaxel and pembrolizumab may be more effective than the usual treatment combinations of carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without pembrolizumab in treating patients with advanced or recurrent pMMR and TP53 mutated endometrial cancer.

A Study to Find Out if Enfortumab Vedotin Given With Pembrolizumab Helps People With Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer Keep Their Bladder

Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer

People with a type of bladder cancer called muscle-invasive bladder cancer have cancer that has spread into the muscle wall of the bladder. The standard treatment is to have chemotherapy, followed by surgery to completely remove the bladder. This has a significant impact on people with long-term life-altering changes. There are also limited options for people who cannot have chemotherapy or who do not want their bladder removed. Studies show that enfortumab vedotin, when given with pembrolizumab, can help people with advanced bladder cancer. This treatment has also worked well for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who can't receive chemotherapy when it was given before and after bladder-removal surgery. However, some people can't have or won't have this surgery. There is still a need for new treatments that let people keep their bladder. This is especially important for people who respond well to the enfortumab vedotin, when given with pembrolizumab, and may benefit from continuing this study treatment instead of having surgery. The main aims of this study are to check how many people continue to respond well to enfortumab vedotin with pembrolizumab and how many people have their bladder intact after 2 years. People in this study will be adults who have muscle-invasive bladder cancer and are able to have surgery to remove the bladder. People cannot take part if they have nerve damage (sensory or motor neuropathy), have had certain other cancers, have diabetes that is not under control, or have had a transplant. People will receive infusions of enfortumab vedotin on the 1st and 8th day of 3-week (21-day) cycles. They will also receive pembrolizumab on the 1st day of every 3-week cycle. There will be safety checks at each visit with checks of the tumors at some visits. The doctors will continue to check for medical problems throughout the study. People will continue to receive study treatment unless their cancer doesn't improve after 9 cycles of study treatment, or until their cancer gets worse, they can't tolerate the study treatment, they start other cancer treatment, they or the doctor decides the person should stop receiving study treatment, or sadly they pass away. People's whose cancer gets worse or doesn't improve after 9 cycles may need bladder surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy. People will visit the clinic after they stop their study treatment, in which they will be asked about any medical problems and have a health check. After this, people will continue to have scans every 12 weeks (3 months) for the first 2 years until their cancer gets worse. After this, if their cancer doesn't get worse, they will continue to have scans every 24 weeks (6 months) for up to 5 years to check for any changes in their cancer. After people's cancer gets worse, they won't have any more scans but will have telephone health checks every 3 months.

Inotuzumab Ozogamicin and Blinatumomab With or Without Ponatinib in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed, Recurrent, or Refractory CD22-Positive B-Lineage Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Philadelphia Chromosome Negative · Recurrent B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia · Refractory B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

This phase II trial studies how well inotuzumab ozogamicin and blinatumomab with or without ponatinib work in treating patients with CD22-positive B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia that is newly diagnosed, has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent), or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called inotuzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called ozogamicin. Inotuzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as CD22 receptors, and delivers ozogamicin to kill them. Blinatumomab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Ponatinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving inotuzumab ozogamicin and blinatumomab with or without ponatinib may be effective in treating patients with newly diagnosed, recurrent or refractory CD22 positive B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
