-
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
The purpose of this study is to determine the response of entrectinib (RXDX-101) for the treatment of patients with solid tumors that have an NTRK1/2/3, ROS1, or ALK gene rearrangement.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to describe knowledge about and quality of physician/patient communication surround tumor testing for K-ras to inform treatment and/or prognosis or to enhance cancer management in patients w/sporadic CRC. Evaluate decision-making satisfaction and decisional conflict surrounding the use of K-ras molecular testing to enhance cancer management. Identify educational needs and preferences of patients to enhance use of molecular testing for cancer treatment decision-making.

Specimen acquisition project of archived serum and plasma samples from Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC patients)and healthy patients, for use by Surface Oncology to investigate the role of IL-27 in patients with Renal Cell Carcinoma and its potential as a therapeutic target.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to determine: if the artificial intelligence (AI)-generated results are less arduous than manual tracing by radiation oncologist, and the non-inferiority of the quality of AI vs. manual tracing. These aims will be evaluated in a clinical environment to investigate the impact of an AI algorithm on the clinical workflow.
Radiotherapy treatment planning requires precise calculations of radiation exposure, not only for the target volumes (tissue containing malignancy), but of nearby organs-at-risk (OARs), in which the exposure needs to be minimized. Manual segmentation of these organs is a time-consuming task with high interobserver variability. Producing these segmentations automatically will reduce the time required for treatment planning and improve the interobserver variability.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of the administration of genetically-modified autologous T cells (CART-TnMUC1 cells) engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) capable of recognizing the tumor antigen, TnMUC1 and activating the T cell (CART- TnMUC1 cells).

Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well temozolomide and veliparib work and compare them to temozolomide alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, 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. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether temozolomide is more effective with or without veliparib in treating glioblastoma multiforme.

Rochester, Minn.
This partially randomized phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of disulfiram when given together with gemcitabine hydrochloride in treating patients with a solid tumor that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and to compare whether disulfiram and gemcitabine hydrochloride may reduce tumor induced muscle loss. Weight loss occurs in pancreatic cancer patients and is common in a multitude of other cancers. Patients with metastatic cancer and weight loss sometimes are not able to receive treatment due to physical weakness or debility. Disulfiram is a potential inhibitor of muscle degradation and may reduce tumor induced muscle wasting. Disulfiram may also help gemcitabine hydrochloride work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, 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 know whether giving gemcitabine hydrochloride with or without disulfiram is a better treatment for unresectable solid tumors or metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Rochester, Minn.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well iodine I-131works with or without selumetinib in treating patients with thyroid cancer that has returned or has spread from where it started to other places in the body. Many thyroid cancers absorb iodine. Because of this, doctors often give radioactive iodine (iodine I-131) alone to treat thyroid cancer as part of standard practice. It is thought that the more thyroid tumors are able to absorb radioactive iodine, the more likely it is that the radioactive iodine will cause those tumors to shrink. Selumetinib may help radioactive iodine work better in patients whose tumors still absorb radioactive iodine. It is not yet known whether iodine I-131 is more effective with or without selumetinib in treating thyroid cancer.

Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.
The study is designed as an open-label, randomized, parallel, two arm, multicenter, international Phase 3 study in patients with recurrent or metastatic breast cancer previously treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens.
The primary study objective is to compare overall survival of patients who receive NKTR-102 given once every 21 days to patients who receive treatment of Physician's Choice selected from a list of seven single-agent intravenous therapies.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to find out more about the side effects of rovalpituzumab tesirine (SC16LD6.5) and what doses of rovalpituzumab tesirine (SC16LD6.5) are safe for people with specific delta-like protein 3-expressing cancers.
