Chemotherapy Combined With Immunotherapy Versus Immunotherapy Alone for Older Adults With Stage IIIB-IV Lung Cancer, The ACHIEVE Trial
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding chemotherapy to immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) versus immunotherapy alone in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV lung cancer. 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 dividin... Read More

Testing the Role of DNA Released From Tumor Cells Into the Blood in Guiding the Use of Immunotherapy After Surgical Removal of the Bladder, Kidney, Ureter, and Urethra for Urothelial Cancer Treatment, MODERN Study
Recruiting
This phase II/III trial examines whether patients who have undergone surgical removal of bladder, kidney, ureter or urethra, but require an additional treatment called immunotherapy to help prevent their urinary tract (urothelial) cancer from coming back, can be identified by a blood test. Many types of tumors tend to lose cells or release different types of cellular products including their DNA which is referred to as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) into the bloodstream before changes can be seen...

Testing the Addition of Herceptin Hylecta or Phesgo to the Usual Chemotherapy for HER2 Positive Endometrial Serous Carcinoma or Carcinosarcoma
Recruiting
This phase III trial tests whether adding trastuzumab and hyaluronidase-oysk (Herceptin Hylecta \[TM\]) or pertuzumab, trastuzumab and hyaluronidase-zzxf (Phesgo \[TM\]) to the usual chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) works to shrink tumors in patients with HER2 positive endometrial cancer. Trastuzumab and pertuzumab are monoclonal antibodies and forms of targeted therapy that attach to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as HER2 receptors. When trastuzumab... Read More

Testing the Addition of an Individualized Vaccine to Durvalumab and Tremelimumab and Chemotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Recruiting
This phase II trial studies how well nab-paclitaxel, durvalumab, and tremelimumab with or without personalized synthetic long peptide vaccine (neoantigen vaccine) works in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as nab-paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopp... Read More

A Study of a Novel Iron-based Phosphate Binder AP301 in Patients With Hyperphosphatemia in the U.S. and China
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if AP301 could work in the patients receiving maintenance dialysis with elevated blood phosphate. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does AP301 lower blood phosphate levels? * Does AP301 works on serum calcium level, calcium times phosphate level, and intact parathyroid hormone level? * What discomfort or medical problem do the patients have when taking AP301? * Does AP301 improve quality of life in Chinese patients? The researchers will com... Read More

A Study of REGN7544 for the Treatment in Adult Patients With Sepsis-Induced Hypotension
Recruiting
This study is researching an experimental drug called REGN7544 (called "study drug"). The study is focused on adult patients (18 to 85 years) hospitalized due to a serious infection (called "sepsis") and receiving standard-of-care medications for low blood pressure (called "vasopressors") due to sepsis. The aim of the study is to see how safe, tolerable, and effective the study drug is by observing the effects on blood pressure and the total amount of vasopressor dose received during the stay i...

Triptorelin for the Prevention of Ovarian Damage in Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer
Recruiting
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 ovar... Read More

The Natural History and Biological Study of Pulmonary Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (pRRP)
Recruiting
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is an orphan disease that affects approximately 20,000 people in the United States and is caused by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6 and 11. Since RRP is an orphan disease, it is an understudied disease entity with correspondingly few treatment options. The investigators hypothesize that by understanding the biology of RRP and the failed host immune responses against HPV, novel and rational therapies can be developed. This study will ex... Read More
