Novel, high-performance genomic technologies now allow detection of signals from cancers in the blood, giving rise to a new paradigm of multi-cancer detection (MCD) tests. Blood is inherently well suited for detection of cancer biomarkers as it contains circulating tumor cells and tumor cell-free DNA (cfDNA) that have been “shed” from an occult asymptomatic developing cancer. MCD tests analyze these genomic features of the circulating DNA, distinguish it from background signals and determine a site of tumor origin to guide subsequent testing to establish a firm cancer diagnosis (hopefully pre-symptomatic early stage and highly curable). An effective MCD test should ...

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy is more effective when given together with or without temozolomide in treating patients with low-grade glioma.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying radiation therapy ...

RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant using stem cells that closely match the patient's stem cells, helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving antithymocyte globulin before transplant and cyclosporine, tacrolimus, and methotrexate before and after transplant may stop this from happening.

The brain is protected from any toxic or inflammatory molecule by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). This physical barrier is located at the level of the blood vessel walls. Because of these barrier properties, the blood vessels are also impermeable to the passage of therapeutic molecules from the blood to the brain. The development of effective treatments against glioblastoma is thus limited due to the BBB that prevents most drugs injected in the bloodstream from getting into brain tissue where the tumour is seated. The SonoCloud-9 (SC9) is an investigational device using ultrasound technology and specially developed to open the BBB ...

The purpose of this study is to test whether adding certain genetic factors to the process of picking a stem cell donor can decrease the chances that the patient's leukemia will come back after bone marrow transplantation. Stem cell donors are "matched" based on genes called human leukocyte antigens (HLA). Currently, donors are selected largely on the basis of HLA gene typing alone. There is published data to show that donors with specific other genes called killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) may protect AML patients from having their leukemia return after a transplant. In this study, the best HLA matched donors will ...

This is an open-label, multicenter, randomized, parallel groups study of GPS vs. best

available treatment (BAT) in patients with AML in second complete remission (CR2)

or in second complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery (CRp2). All

patients will have their historical bone marrow samples stained for WT1 via IHC by

central pathology review. The primary goal of the study will be to demonstrate an

advantage for GPS in overall survival in these patient populations. The study will

enroll approximately 116 patients and will be conducted at up to 50 investigational

sites. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to GPS or BAT stratified by whether they are

in CR2 or ...

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of KO-539, a menin-MLL(KMT2A) inhibitor, in patients with refractory or relapsed  acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have failed or are ineligible for any approved standard of care therapies, including hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).

This clinical trial tests how well a digital treatment platform using a mobile application works for the delivery of home-based sequential therapy in patients with glioma. Access to specialized neuro-oncology care in the United States for patients with glioma is critically deficient. Care at centers with neuro-oncology specialists is associated with improved survival outcomes, yet many patients have limited access due to distance, disease-related disability, or lack of financial resources. The application provides patients continuous access to their care team in the home setting. A digital treatment platform may increase clinical trial participation and accelerate development of novel therapeutics while ...

The overall goals of this study are to evaluate similarities and differences of the known genetic and non-genetic epidemiological factors associated with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) risk across African Americans, Hispanics, and Caucasian populations.

This study is evaluating the efficacy of acalabrutinib in combination with bendamustine and rituximab (BR) compared with placebo plus BR in subjects with previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma.

The purpose of this study is to compare stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) in patients with 5 or more brain metastases.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate itacitinib or placebo in combination with corticosteroids as first-line treatment of participants with Grade II to IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD).

The purpose of this study is to compare standard chemotherapy to therapy with CPX-351 and/or gilteritinib for patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia with or without FLT3 mutations. 

All lesions 4.0 cm to 6.0 cm will receive 32.5 Gy/5 fractions and will be analyzed separately.  The portion of the trial is written as a phase II study without randomization noting the rarity of unresected brain metastasis of this size and the lack of comfort of treating radiation oncologist and neurosurgeons with single fraction SRS for tumors this large. However, noting the paucity of prospective data for this patient population enrolling patients on a clinical trial will provide a more accurate historical control for future trials.  Although this cohort was enrolled on the prospective phase I trial from Emory and ...

Ziftomenib is an investigational drug in development for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with certain genetic alterations.

This protocol has 3 separate arms that will investigate the benefits and risks of adding ziftomenib to standard-of-care (SOC) drug treatments in patients who have AML with certain genetic mutations. Both newly diagnosed and relapsed refractory patients with AML will be assigned to different cohorts based on specific study criteria and physician discretion.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and early signs of efficacy of ziftomenib in combination with SOC drugs to treat AML.

  The purpose of this study is to investigate the new mid-range infrared spectroscopy imaging technology as a non-invasive approach for detecting  cancer tumors from the surrounding tissues during surgery.

Patients with previously untreated low tumor burden indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) will receive either rituximab or GA101 weekly for 4 weeks followed by re-staging to determine response.

Rituximab, an anti-CD20 chimeric antibody, was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration in 1998 for the treatment of patients with relapsed low-grade B-cell lymphomas. Clinically, four weekly doses of rituximab have proven to be well tolerated and effective in previously untreated as well as relapsed patients with low-grade lymphoma.

GA101 is an anti-CD20 humanized and glyco-engineered monoclonal antibody. GA101 has been shown to have increased antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity ...

The purpose of this study is to examine the pharmacological effects of the compound BI 907828 on patient tumors at an early stage of drug development.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a blood test can accurately detect whether if the participant's lymphoma has come back after completion of initial chemotherapy treatment for their aggressive B-cell Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The purpose of the study is to see if MRD in blood samples can potentially replace CT scans after completion of chemotherapy in the future.

The purpose of this study is to combine MRI images with histologic and genetic analysis of cancer (from blood and tissue samples) to improve the overall accuracy of diagnosis and effectiveness of cancer treatment.
