Clinical Trials

This clinical trial evaluates whether gallium-68 (Ga-68) prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-11 positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) imaging is useful in differentiating between disease that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrence) or that is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progression) and treatment effect in patients with glioma. Patients with glioma undergo frequent imaging for assessment of disease status. After first-line treatment however, the correlation between imaging findings and tumor activity can be confused, and surgery is often required for definitive diagnosis. The PET/CT scanner is an imaging machine that combines 2 types of imaging in a single scan. The PET scanner detects and takes pictures of where the radioactive imaging agent (68Ga PSMA-11) has gone in the body and the CT scanner uses x-rays to take structural pictures inside the body. PSMA PET also binds to neoplastic blood vessels, including those in gliomas. This study may help researchers learn whether GA-68 PSMA-11 PET/CT is useful for improving detection of tumor recurrence or progression, as opposed to treatment effects, in patients with gliomas.

This phase II trial studies how well a short course of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with relugolix works in increasing expression of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and improving diagnostic imaging with PSMA positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in patients with high risk or very high risk prostate cancer. PSMA PET/CT has become the standard of care in imaging for high-risk prostate cancer. However, a limitation of PSMA PET/CT is its ability to detect cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes. PSMA is a protein that is usually found on the surface of normal prostate cells but is found in higher amounts on prostate tumor cells. Studies have shown that expression of PSMA is regulated by androgens (male reproductive hormones). Relugolix binds to gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptors in the pituitary gland, which blocks the pituitary gland from making the hormones follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. This causes the testicles to stop making testosterone. Relugolix may stop the growth of tumor cells that need testosterone to grow. PSMA PET/CT is an imaging procedure that is used to help find prostate tumor cells in the body. For this procedure, a cell-targeting molecule linked to a radioactive substance (flotufolastat F 18 in this trial) is injected into the body and travels through the blood. It attaches to PSMA that is found on the surface of prostate tumor cells. PET/CT scanners detect high concentrations of the radioactive molecule and shows where the prostate tumor cells are in the body. Giving a short course of ADT with relugolix may increase PSMA expression to detect smaller areas of prostate cancer that were not previously detected.

This study will assess safety and treatment activity of DS-1062a in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with advanced or metastatic NSCLC without actionable genomic alterations who have had previously treated with platinum-based therapy with or without prior immunotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the 2-year rate of grade ≥3 treatment-related skin and soft tissue toxicities with comprehensive nodal irradiation for breast cancer using hypofractionated pencil beam scanning proton therapy (PBS-PT) is non-inferior to conventionally-fractionated PBS-PT.

The purpose of this study is to determine how well atezolizumab with or without cobimetinib works in treating patients with bile duct cancer that has spread to other places in the body and cannot be removed by surgery or gallbladder cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cobimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving atezolizumab with cobimetinib may work better at treating patients with bile duct and gallbladder cancer.

The purpose of this study is to compare progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with BRAF V600Em differentiated thyroid cancer who progressed on frontline multikinase inhibitor treated with dabrafenib/trametinib or cabozantinib.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety, side effects, and best dose of ASTX727 when given together with paclitaxel and pembrolizumab in patients with triple-negative breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). 

This is a randomised, open label multi-centre phase III study comparing the activity of lapatinib alone versus trastuzumab alone versus trastuzumab followed by lapatinib versus lapatinib concomitantly with trastuzumab in the adjuvant treatment of patients with ErbB2 overexpressing and/or amplified breast cancer. Patients will be enrolled according to one of two design schemas, with Design 2 having two chemotherapy options (Design 2 and 2B), and will be randomised to one of four treatment regimens within each design schema. The primary objective of this study is to compare disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with HER2 overexpressing and/or amplified breast cancer randomised to trastuzumab for one year versus lapatinib for one year versus trastuzumab (12 or 18 weeks, according to assigned design) followed by a six-week treatment-free interval followed by lapatinib (28 or 34 weeks, according to assigned design) versus trastuzumab in combination with lapatinib for one year (52 weeks). Secondary objectives include treatment comparisons with respect to overall survival, time to recurrence, time to distant recurrence, safety and tolerability, incidence of brain metastasis, and analyses conducted separately for cohorts of patients defined by presence or absence of cMyc oncogene amplification, expression level of PTEN and presence or absence of the p95HER2 receptor. On August 18, 2011, the ALTTO Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) met to review the first planned interim analysis. The IDMC reported that the comparison of lapatinib alone versus trastuzumab alone crossed the futility boundary, indicating that the lapatinib alone arm was unlikely to meet the pre-specified criteria to demonstrate non-inferiority to trastuzumab alone with respect to disease-free survival (DFS). The IDMC also stated that the other three arms (trastuzumab alone, sequential trastuzumab/lapatinib arm and the combination arm) should continue as planned with no changes.

The purpose of this study is to assess how well belinostat and SGI-110 (guadecitabine) or ASTX727 work in treating patients with conventional chondrosarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Belinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as guadecitabine, 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 belinostat and guadecitabine may lower the chance of chondrosarcoma growing or spreading.

BDTX-1535-101 is an open-label, Phase 1 dose escalation and Phase 2 multiple cohort study designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), optimal dosage, central nervous system (CNS) activity, and antitumor activity of silevertinib (BDTX-1535). The study population comprises adults with either advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with non-classical or acquired epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) resistance (EGFR C797S) mutations with or without CNS disease (in Phase 1 and Phase 2), or glioblastoma (GBM) expressing EGFR alterations (Phase 1 only). All patients will self-administer silevertinib (BDTX-1535) monotherapy by mouth in 21-day cycles.

Phase 1 enrollment is now complete. Phase 2 is currently ongoing.
