Rapid Autopsy Protocol for Patients with Small Cell Lung Cancer

S
Shadia Jalal, MD
18 years or above
All genders
This is pilot study to establish a rapid autopsy program in Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) at the Indiana University Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center and outline the components necessary for tumor tissue collection. This proposal is a collaboration between scientists, lung cancer physicians, pathologists, and the IUSCCC Translational Research Core. The goal is to develop a multi-disciplinary rapid autopsy program at IUSCCC for patients who die and have a diagnosis of active small cell lung cancer Interested in participating?

A Phase 1/2 Trial of CBL0137 in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors including CNS Tumors and Lymphoma

B
Brian Weiss
12 months - 21 years
All genders
Phase 1/2
Interventional
This phase I/II trial evaluates the best dose, side effects and possible benefit of CBL0137 in treating patients with solid tumors, including central nervous system (CNS) tumors or lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Drugs, such as CBL0137, block signals passed from one molecule to another inside a cell. Blocking these signals can affect many functions of the cell, including cell division and cell death, and may kill cancer cells. THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - Consistent with most oncology trials, patients are not actively “recruited,” but are screened by their physician for appropriate clinical trial(s) at the time of their routine clinic visit. Occasionally, a patient may be a self-referral or physician referral, but are still screened for appropriate clinical trials at the time of their routine clinic visit. PI and staff may send copies of relevant consent forms to these patients to look over prior to actually consenting or enrolling them. This may take place at the patient's visit at which the consent is presented or the patient's next visit to the outpatient hematology/oncology clinic.  Interested in participating?

A PHASE III, MULTICENTER, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, TREAT-THROUGH STUDY TO ASSESS THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF INDUCTION AND MAINTENANCE THERAPY WITH RO7790121 IN PATIENTS WITH MODERATELY TO SEVERELY ACTIVE CROHN'S DISEASE

M
Monika Fischer, MD
18 years - 75 years
All genders
Phase 3
Interventional
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of RO7790121 (formerly PF-06480605 and RVT-3101) in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD). RO7790121 is a fully human neutralizing immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibody (mAb) against tumor necrosis factor-like ligand 1A (TL1A). TL1A plays a central role in the regulation of gut mucosal immunity and participates in immunological and fibrosis pathways involved in inflammatory bowel disease pathogenesis by binding its receptor, death receptor 3.THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY

A Phase II Study of Pembrolizumab, Carboplatin, Paclitaxel, and Radiationfor the Treatment of Early-Stage Anal Cancer

A
Anita Turk, MD
18 years - 100 years
All genders
Phase 2
Primary Objective:1. To determine the clinical complete response rate (cCR) assessed following weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel in combination with pembrolizumab and radiation for the treatment of early-stage anal cancer. Secondary Objectives:1. To assess the safety and tolerability of weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel in combination with pembrolizumab and radiation for the treatment of anal cancer.2. To assess the overall response rate of weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel in combination with pembrolizumab and radiation for the treatment of anal cancer3. To assess the tumor downstaging and disease-free survival of patients undergoing this treatment strategy.Exploratory Objectives:1. To evaluate the association of genomic alterations, and radiographic characteristics with clinical outcomes. 2. To evaluate versican and its proteolysis and stress keratin 17 as a biomarker of therapeutic response and clinical outcomes.Interested in participating?

A Randomized Phase III Trial Incorporating Pathologic Complete Response in Participants with Early Stage Non Small Cell Lung Cancer to Optimize Immunotherapy in the Adjuvant Setting (Insight)

R
Rohan Maniar
18 years - 100 years
All genders
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.Interested in participating?

Triptorelin and Protection of Ovarian Reserve in Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer

T
Tarah Ballinger, MD
40 years or below
Female
Phase 3
This phase III trial compares the effect of giving triptorelin vs no triptorelin in preventing ovarian damage in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer receiving chemotherapy with an alkylating agents. Alkylating agents are part of standard chemotherapy, but may cause damage to the ovaries. If the ovaries are not working well or completely shut down, then it will be difficult or impossible to get pregnant in the future. Triptorelin works by blocking certain hormones and causing the ovaries to slow down or pause normal activity. The triptorelin used in this study stays active in the body for 24 weeks or about 6 months after a dose is given. After triptorelin is cleared from the body, the ovaries resume normal activities. Adding triptorelin before the start of chemotherapy treatment may reduce the chances of damage to the ovaries.Interested in participating?

An International Pilot Study of Chemotherapy and Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors with Blinatumomab in Patients with Newly-Diagnosed Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive or Abl-Class Philadelphia Chromosome-Like B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

S
Sandeep Batra, MD
366 days - 42 years
All genders
Phase 3
This phase III trial compares the effect of the combination of blinatumomab with dasatinib or imatinib and standard chemotherapy versus dasatinib or imatinib and standard chemotherapy for treating patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive (PH+) or ABL-class Philadelphia chromosome-like (Ph-Like) B-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Blinatumomab is a bispecific antibody that binds to two different proteins-one on the surface of cancer cells and one on the surface of cells in the immune system. An antibody is a protein made by the immune system to help fight infections and other harmful processes/cells/molecules. Blinatumomab may bind to the cancer cell and a T cell (which plays a key role in the immune system's fighting response) at the same time. Blinatumomab may strengthen the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells by activating the body's own immune cells to destroy the tumor. Dasatinib and imatinib are in a class of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. They work by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply, which may help keep cancer cells from growing. Giving blinatumomab and dasatinib or imatinib in combination with standard chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with PH+ or Ph-Like ABL-class B-ALL compared to dasatinib or imatinib and chemotherapy alone.THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - Consistent with most oncology trials, patients are not actively “recruited,” but are screened by their physician for appropriate clinical trial(s) at the time of their routine clinic visit. Occasionally, a patient may be a self-referral or physician referral, but are still screened for appropriate clinical trials at the time of their routine clinic visit.
