Study of Pelvic Hypofractionated Radiotherapy in Endometrial Cancer

Endometrial Cancer

This study will investigate if a shorter treatment course (known as "hypofractionation") for pelvic radiation is safe for women with endometrial cancer. Doctors leading the study will also determine the safest and most tolerable dose of shortened radiation (hypofractionation) used to treat women in this study. Because this study will shorten the radiation course typically used to treat endometrial cancer, each daily treatment given to women in this study will be slightly higher than normal to ensure that the total radiation dose they receive is still effective and similar to the radiation dose they would receive if they were not participating in this study (standard treatment).

A Study Comparing the Combination of Pembrolizumab and Sacituzumab Govitecan-hziy Versus Standard of Care in the Treatment of Advanced Urothelial Cancer

Locally Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma · Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma · Unresectable Urothelial Carcinoma

This phase III trial compares the effectiveness of pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan-hziy to standard of care in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). 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. Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy is a monoclonal antibody, called sacituzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug called govitecan-hziy. Sacituzumab attaches to TROP2 positive tumor cells in a targeted way and delivers govitecan-hziy to kill them. The usual treatment approach is treatment with chemotherapy such as cisplatin, carboplatin, gemcitabine, docetaxel or paclitaxel. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. 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. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill tumor cells. Docetaxel is in a class of medications called taxanes. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Giving pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan-hziy may be more effective than usual care of carboplatin or cisplatin with gemcitabine, docetaxel or paclitaxel in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer.

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.

Testing Pump Chemotherapy in Addition to Standard of Care Chemotherapy Versus Standard of Care Chemotherapy Alone for Patients With Unresectable Colorectal Liver Metastases: The PUMP Trial

Metastatic Colorectal Carcinoma · Metastatic Malignant Neoplasm in the Liver · Stage IV Colorectal Cancer AJCC v8

This phase III trial compares hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) (pump chemotherapy) in addition to standard of care chemotherapy versus standard of care chemotherapy alone in treating patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver (liver metastases) and cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). HAI uses a catheter to carry a tumor-killing chemotherapy drug called floxuridine directly into the liver. HAI is already approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in metastatic colorectal cancer to the liver, but it is only available at a small number of hospitals, and most of the time it is not used until standard chemotherapy stops working. Standard 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. Adding HAI to standard chemotherapy may be effective in shrinking or stabilizing unresectable colorectal liver metastases.

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.

A Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Activity of Fruquintinib in Minority Populations With Advanced, Previously Treated Colorectal Cancer

Colorectal Cancer

High blood pressure (hypertension) is a known side effect of the treatment with fruquintinib. Current research does not provide a clear answer whether minority groups such as Black/African American and/or Hispanic/Latino with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) have a bigger risk of higher blood pressure after treatment with fruquintinib. The main aim of this study is to learn how often adults of a minority group experience hypertension after they have been treated with fruquintinib for refractory mCRC. Other aims are to learn how safe fruquintinib is and how well it is tolerated by participants. Participants will receive fruquintinib in 4-week treatment cycles until their condition worsens, they do no longer tolerate the treatment or stop the treatment for other reasons. After the last treatment, participants will be checked upon every 3 months until study completion.

Testing the Addition of an Anti-Cancer Drug, Triapine, to the Usual Radiation Therapy for Recurrent Glioblastoma or Astrocytoma

Astrocytoma, IDH-Mutant, Grade 2 · Recurrent Adult Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma, H3 G34-Mutant · Recurrent Adult Diffuse Midline Glioma, H3 K27-Mutant

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of triapine in combination with radiation therapy in treating patients with glioblastoma or astrocytoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Triapine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving triapine in combination with radiation therapy may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma or astrocytoma.

Illuminate: A Clinical Study Evaluating CAR T Immune Cell Therapy (BCB-276) for Patients With Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG).

Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma · DIPG · Brain Tumor

This study will evaluate BCB-276, an investigational B7-H3-targeted Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, in children and young adults with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). DIPG is a rare and aggressive brain tumor with limited treatment options. CAR T cell therapy uses a patient's own immune cells that are changed in a laboratory to recognize and attack cancer cells. The purpose of this study is to determine whether BCB-276, when given after completion of standard radiation therapy, is safe and can improve survival for patients with DIPG. To participate, individuals must be between 1 and 26 years of age when they join the study, have a diagnosis of DIPG, and enroll for treatment within 6 weeks of completing initial radiation therapy. Participants must not have received prior anti-cancer therapy beyond radiation with or without temozolomide prior to joining this study. BCB-276 is administered intraventricularly (into the fluid around the brain), which requires placement of a catheter for treatment. BCB-276 is given every 2 weeks at a research center over a period of several months (approximately 7-8 months). Participation includes travel to a study site, procedures to support treatment administration, sample collection, and ongoing monitoring for safety and effectiveness, with follow-up visits lasting up to about 2 years.

Surgeon-performed Ultrasound for Real-time Guidance In Oral Cancer Surgeries - A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

Tongue Cancer · Oral Cancer · Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity or Oropharynx

The goal of this clinical trial is to improve the surgical treatment of patients with oral cancer. We will explore whether the use of surgeon performed ultrasound during these surgeries result in better tumor removal. We hypothesize that using intraoperative ultrasound to assist the resection results in more frequent clear surgical margins in oral cancer surgeries compared to standard methods. This improvement is associated with a reduced need for post-operative adjuvant therapies such as radiotherapy and reoperation, lower mortality rates, lower cancer recurrence, and enhanced quality of life for patients undergoing surgery for oral cancer. Participants will be randomized to either the control or intervention group: * Control group will receive standard treatment for oral cancer. * Intervention group will in addition to the standard treatment have surgery performed using ultrasound to guide the resection and evaluate resection margins intraoperatively. Outcomes: * Number of free surgical margins between control and intervention group. * Intraoperative surgeon assessed surgical margins compared to final histology report. * Dysphagia and quality of life questionnaires. * Recurrence rates. * Mortality rates. All participant will be followed-up at 3 months and 12 months with: * MDADI dysphagia questionnaire * EORTC head and neck cancer quality of life questionnaire * Follow-up on recurrrence and mortality.

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.
