Cancer Clinical Trials in Long Beach, CA

Men with localized, intermediate risk prostate cancer will be randomized to undergo either radical prostatectomy or the TULSA procedure, with a follow-up of 10 years in this multi-centered randomized control trial. This study will determine whether the TULSA procedure is as effective and more safe compared to radical prostatectomy. Read Less

This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of cancers. Read Less

This study is a multisite, minimal risk, non-interventional study using patient electronic health record data collected as part of standard of care to answer cohort-based research questions and create robust real-world data sets. Read Less

A Phase 2 multi-center open-label basket trial of nab-sirolimus for adult and adolescent patients with malignant solid tumors harboring pathogenic inactivating alterations in TSC1 or TSC2 genes Read Less

This is a prospective, multi-center interventional study of the GRAIL multi-cancer early detection (MCED) test with return of test results for participants enrolled through healthcare systems in North America. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the GRAIL MCED test in a population of individuals who are eligible for guideline-recommended cancer screening. In cases with a "cancer signal detected" test result, participants will undergo diagnostic procedures based on the test returned cancer signal origin(s) to determine if they have cancer. The number and types of diagnostic procedures required to achieve diagnostic resolution will be assessed. Participant-reported outcomes will be collected at several time points to assess participants' perceptions about the multi-cancer early detection test. The study will enroll approximately 35,000 and no more than 38,500 participants as defined by eligibility criteria over an anticipated enrollment period of approximately 36 months at up to 40 clinical institutions within North America. Participants will be actively followed for approximately 3 years from the date of their enrollment. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of Eflapegrastim on duration of neutropenia in patients with early-stage breast cancer when administered at varying intervals following Docetaxel and Cyclophosphamide administration. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of retifanlimab plus INCAGN02385 and retifanlimab plus INCAGN02385 and INCAGN02390 compared with retifanlimab alone as first-line treatment in PD-L1-positive and systemic therapy-naive recurrent/metastatic (R/M) squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).

This phase III trial compares the effect of the combination of ramucirumab and pembrolizumab versus standard of care chemotherapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs 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. This trial may help doctors find out if giving ramucirumab with pembrolizumab is more effective at treating patients with stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer than standard chemotherapy.

This phase III trial studies whether adding apalutamide to the usual treatment improves outcome in patients with lymph node positive prostate cancer after surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-ray to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Androgens, or male sex hormones, can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Drugs, such as apalutamide, may help stop or reduce the growth of prostate cancer cell growth by blocking the attachment of androgen to its receptors on cancer cells, a mechanism similar to stopping the entrance of a key into its lock. Adding apalutamide to the usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy after surgery may stabilize prostate cancer and prevent it from spreading and extend time without disease spreading compared to the usual approach.

This is a phase 4, multi-center, open-label, prospective cohort study to evaluate the clinical utility of Fluoroestradiol F18 (Cerianna) PET/CT to guide therapeutic management in ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer patients with progressive disease on first-line standard-of-care hormonal therapy. All patients will undergo a Cerianna PET/CT scan. The treating physician will complete a standardized questionnaire to indicate the second-line therapeutic management plan before the scheduled Cerianna PET/CT. After interpretation of Cerianna PET/CT by local radiologist or nuclear medicine physician, the treating physician will fill out a similar questionnaire to specify the final therapeutic decision. The proportion of patients with a change in therapeutic management plan based on Cerianna PET/CT results will be the primary endpoint. During the study follow-up period of 18 months, data on standard-of-care imaging, treatments/procedures received, and clinical outcomes will be collected. Patients will be asked to complete a health-related quality of life questionnaire at their screening, 6-month, and 18-month visit. Secondary endpoints include visual and quantitative heterogeneity assessment of tumor Cerianna uptake, and PFS rates at 6 months and 18 months after Cerianna PET/CT, which will be assessed between patients with and without a change in therapeutic management plan. Maximum duration of follow-up for each patient: 20 months. First patient first visit to last patient last visit: estimated 36 months. Read Less

This trial tests if the combination of comprehensive metastasis directed therapy delivered by a precision form of external beam radiotherapy (stereotactic ablative radiotherapy), combined with PSMA targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy and cessation of castration, and then followed by testosterone replacement, is an effective treatment for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer. All patients will be treated with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy and PSMA targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy with cessation of castration. Half of patients are randomized to either receive, or not receive, subsequent testosterone replacement. Read Less

This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center seamless phase II to phase III randomized clinical trial designed to compare SST with or without PET-directed local therapy in improving the castration-resistant prostate cancer-free survival (CRPC-free survival) for Veterans with oligometastatic prostate cancer. Oligometastasis will be defined as 1-10 sites of metastatic disease based on the clinical determination of the LSI which incorporates all imaging, clinical, and pathologic data available. Read Less
