This is an open label Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ACR-368 as monotherapy or with ultra-low dose gemcitabine (ULDG) sensitization in participants with endometrial cancer. Read Less

The goal of this Phase 2b clinical trial is to see if nebulized phage (BX004) can treat chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PsA) lung infection in CF subjects. The primary goal is to see if 8 weeks of twice daily BX004 can reduce the amount of PsA in the sputum compared to placebo (on top of background CF therapy). Read Less

The prevalence of childhood hearing loss in rural Alaska is disproportionately high and predominately infection-related. With preventive screenings and access to health care, much of childhood hearing loss is preventable. Although state-mandated school screening helps identify children with hearing loss, loss to follow-up is pervasive and exacerbated by a scarcity of specialists in rural regions. A mixed methods cluster randomized trial conducted in northwest Alaska demonstrated that telemedicine can significantly reduce loss to follow-up. This stepped wedge trial, in partnership with Southcentral Foundation, will build on this existing work to develop a model that can be scaled in diverse environments. We will adapt and implement a new telemedicine intervention called Specialty Telemedicine Access for Referrals (STAR). This trial will be conducted in 3 regions in rural Alaska that represent multiple healthcare systems. Based on stakeholder feedback and evidence generated from the previous trial, an enhanced mobile health (mHealth) hearing screening will be implemented in all participating schools prior to the STAR intervention, and the telemedicine referral to specialty care (STAR intervention) will be moved from the clinic directly into the school. This stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial is part of a larger hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation trial. The stepped wedge trial will evaluate the effectiveness of the STAR intervention in reducing loss to follow-up from referred school hearing screening in 3 regions of Alaska: Kodiak, Petersburg and Lower Yukon (n=23 schools, \~2,015 K-12 students/year). The STAR Intervention will be compared to the standard referral of a letter home to families. Cluster randomization at the level of school will be performed, with schools (clusters) randomized to one of two sequences. The effectiveness outcome (i.e., proportion of children who receive follow-up) will be evaluated over three academic years (2023-2026), with STAR rolled out in a stepwise manner for each of the two sequences (academic year 2024-2025 for sequence 1 and academic year 2025-2026 for sequence 2). The control periods for each sequence will be academic year 2023-2024 for sequence 1 and academic years 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 for sequence 2. Enhanced screening will be rolled out to both sequences at the same time (i.e., non-randomized) beginning academic year 2023-2024. An implementation evaluation will be conducted to refine and adapt the enhanced hearing screening and STAR intervention throughout the trial. Implementation data will be collected starting academic year 2022-2023 and then annually for each of the subsequent years. Timeline update: Based on feedback from community partners, we extended the trial for one year to allow for community-informed adaptations of the enhanced screening. Now the STAR intervention will be rolled out in 2025-2026 for sequence 1 and 2026-2027 for sequence 2. Read Less

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding lomustine to standard chemotherapy with temozolomide and radiation therapy versus temozolomide and radiation therapy alone in shrinking or stabilizing newly diagnosed MGMT methylated glioblastoma. MGMT methylated tumors are more likely to respond to temozolomide chemotherapy. Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's DNA and may kill tumor cells and slow down or stop tumor growth. Lomustine is a chemotherapy drug and in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It damages the cell's DNA and may kill tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-ray photons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Adding lomustine to standard chemotherapy with temozolomide and radiation therapy may shrink or stabilize glioblastoma. Read Less

This phase III trial compares less intense hormone therapy and radiation therapy to usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with high risk prostate cancer and low gene risk score. This trial also compares more intense hormone therapy and radiation therapy to usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy in patients with high risk prostate cancer and high gene risk score. Apalutamide may help fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of androgen by the tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving a shorter hormone therapy treatment may work the same at controlling prostate cancer compared to the usual 24 month hormone therapy treatment in patients with low gene risk score. Adding apalutamide to the usual treatment may increase the length of time without prostate cancer spreading as compared to the usual treatment in patients with high gene risk score. Read Less

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, drug levels, molecular effects, and clinical activity of MRTX849 (adagrasib) in patients with advanced solid tumors that have a KRAS G12C mutation. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of golcadomide in combination with rituximab in participants with newly diagnosed advanced stage Follicular Lymphoma (FL). Read Less

This is a Phase Ⅲ, randomized, open-label, Sponsor-blinded, 3-arm, global, multicenter study assessing the efficacy and safety of rilvegostomig in combination with fluoropyrimidine and T-DXd (Arm A) compared to trastuzumab, chemotherapy, and pembrolizumab (Arm B) in HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma participants whose tumors express PD L1 CPS ≥ 1. Rilvegostomig in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy will be evaluated in a separate arm (Arm C) to assess the contribution of each component in the experimental arm. Read Less

This phase II trial studies how well ramucirumab and paclitaxel or the FOLFIRI regimen (leucovorin calcium, fluorouracil, and irinotecan hydrochloride) work in treating patients with small bowel cancers that have spread extensively to other anatomic sites (advanced) or are no longer responding to treatment (refractory). Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that attaches to and inhibits a molecule called VEGFR-2. This may restrain new blood vessel formation therefore reducing nutrient supply to tumor which may interfere with tumor cell growth and expansion. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, leucovorin calcium, fluorouracil, and irinotecan 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. Giving Ramucirumab plus paclitaxel or FOLFIRI, may be helpful in treating advanced or refractory small bowel cancers and may help patients live longer. Read Less
