This phase III trial studies if selumetinib works just as well as the standard treatment with carboplatin/vincristine (CV) for subjects with NF1-associated low grade glioma (LGG), and to see if selumetinib is better than CV in improving vision in subjects with LGG of the optic pathway (vision nerves). Selumetinib is a drug that works by blocking some enzymes that low-grade glioma tumor cells need for their growth. This results in killing tumor cells. Drugs used as chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and vincristine, 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. It is not yet known whether selumetinib works better in treating patients with NF1-associated low-grade glioma compared to standard therapy with carboplatin and vincristine. Read Less

This phase II trial studies how well obinutuzumab with or without umbralisib, lenalidomide, or combination chemotherapy work in treating patients with grade I-IIIa follicular lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Immunotherapy with obinutuzumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Umbralisib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone, and bendamustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether giving obinutuzumab with or without umbralisib, lenalidomide, or combination chemotherapy will work better in treating patients with grade I-IIIa follicular lymphoma.

This phase III trial compares the usual treatment (treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab followed by nivolumab alone) to treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab, followed by nivolumab with cabozantinib in patients with untreated renal cell carcinoma that has spread to other parts of the body. The addition of cabozantinib to the usual treatment may make it work better. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known how well the combination of cabozantinib and nivolumab after initial treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab works in treating patients with renal cell cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding immunotherapy (brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab) to standard treatment (chemotherapy with or without radiation) to the standard treatment alone in improving survival in patients with stage I and II classical Hodgkin lymphoma. Brentuximab vedotin is in a class of medications called antibody-drug conjugates. It is made of a monoclonal antibody called brentuximab that is linked to a cytotoxic agent called vedotin. Brentuximab attaches to CD30 positive lymphoma cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, 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 such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin sulfate, vinblastine sulfate, dacarbazine, and procarbazine hydrochloride work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. It may also lower the body's immune response. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. Vincristine is in a class of medications called vinca alkaloids. It works by stopping cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Prednisone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Adding immunotherapy to the standard treatment of chemotherapy with or without radiation may increase survival and/or fewer short-term or long-term side effects in patients with classical Hodgkin lymphoma compared to the standard treatment alone.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether one minute of stair stepping at a comfortable pace can reduce blood sugar after meals. The main objectives of the study are: Compare continuously measured post-meal glucose after stair-stepping to control condition Compare continuously measured post-meal glucose after stair-stepping between meals Assess interaction between condition and meal to determine if the effect of stair-stepping on post-meal glucose depends on meal Participants will be in the study for 10 days and will be asked to: Wear a continuous glucose monitor over the course of the study Perform either one minute of comfortable pace stair stepping 15 min after each meal OR no exercise 1 hour after eating a meal on alternating days Perform a dietary recall every two days Perform no exercise within one hour after each meal on any day during the study Consume no calories within one hour after each meal during the study Read Less

Purpose/objective: The purpose of the current study is to investigate whether the benefits of stair stepping established for early day food consumption extend to late day food consumption. Methods: Participants will perform two standard oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), consuming 75g of glucose dissolved in 350mL of water followed by assessment of glycemic markers for 2 hours. Participants will perform the OGTTs in the evening of two separate days. One day will be the control condition, where participants will remain seated throughout the entire duration of the OGTT. The other day (in randomized order) participants will perform 1 min of stair stepping at a self-selected, comfortable pace 28min after the consumption of the glucose solution. Blood glucose measurement via standard, over the counter finger sticks will be performed every 10 min for the first hour, and again at 90 and 120min of the OGTT. In addition, standard venipuncture blood draws (5mL) will be drawn at baseline ad at peak (30min) glucose excursion for the assessment of insulin. Participants will be instructed to not vary their diet or exercise during the two testing days. Diet and activity logs will be collected and analyzed to verify compliance. Subjects Adults 18 or over will be recruited for this project. Prior to enrolling in the study, each potential participant will complete the Physical Activity Recall Questionnaire (PAR-Q+) to screen for cardiovascular risks. Any positive responses to questions from the PAR-Q+ will eliminate the individual from selection. Participants who self report any condition that will prevent them form safely and/or comfortably climbing stairs will also be excluded form participation. Planned analyses: Results will be analyzed via a 2-factor repeated measure analysis of variance for time and condition. Statistical significance will be set at an alpha level of 0.05. Potential benefits: This study will help to identify the shortest possible bout of exercise that is still effective in significantly reducing postprandial blood glucose using a simple, cheap, and ubiquitously available exercise mode - stair stepping. In addition, participants will be informed of their fasting and postprandial glycemic response if they so desire. At the end of the study, individuals that want their test results will be given a copy. However, we cannot guarantee the subjects will benefit from this information. Potential risks: Risks are comparable to regular everyday life. Stair stepping performed in this study presents the same risk of falling or errant stepping related injuries as any other stair stepping at a comfortable pace. Finger sticks and venipunctures present no greater risk than a regular routine physical examination. Whenever blood is drawn, there is a small risk of bruising or infection. Read Less
