Cancer Paid Clinical Trials in District Of Columbia

This research is being done to learn more about coping and survivorship of women with bladder cancer, specifically regarding psychosocial distress and sexual dysfunction. This study is a non-therapeutic study and will randomize participants to a standard of care group and education group. Patients in both groups will be asked to complete surveys regarding their mood and sexual function. Patients in the intervention group will be asked to complete attendance diaries regarding educational and support services utilized. Participants' clinical data will also be collected. Read Less

This is a multicenter pilot randomized controlled trial, with an active control condition, of the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of EndeavorRx in a cohort of survivors of acute lymphoblastic leukemia or brain tumor ages 8-16 who are \> 1 year from the end of therapy.

A prospective, multicenter, observational study to evaluate the correlation of Molecular Residual Disease (MRD) detection using circulating tumor DNA guided test to pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in stage I-III triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Results from this study aim to improve MRD detection and disease outcomes for future patients. Read Less

To test the impact of a multilevel intervention on primary (provider-patient communication, intentions, and knowledge) and secondary (screening referrals and completion) outcomes. Read Less

This is a study to evaluate the clinical activity of the combination of fluorouracil, leucovorin, and nanoliposomal irinotecan as second-line treatment in patients with advanced biliary tract cancers following gemcitabine and platinum chemotherapy. Read Less

PUMA-ALI-4201 is a Phase 2 study evaluating alisertib monotherapy in patients with pathologically-confirmed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) following progression on or after treatment with one platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy agent. Up to one additional systemic anti-cancer therapy for SCLC is allowed, for a total of up to two prior lines of therapy. This study is intended to identify the biomarker-defined subgroup(s) that may benefit most from alisertib treatment and to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of alisertib. Read Less

This trial will evaluate the use of combination pembrolizumab and enfortumab vedotin for patients with high grade non-metastatic (cN0/NxMx, no measurable regional lymph nodes, no metastases) upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC), preferring to forego standard of care radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) surgery. Currently these patients would not be suitable candidates for neoadjuvant trials, as the patients intention is to forego surgery. The patients are also not candidates for metastatic trials, as the patients have no measurable metastasis. The Investigators hypothesize the combination of pembrolizumab and enfortumab vedotin for patients with high grade cN0/NxMx UTUC deferring RNU will lead to event free survival outcomes similar to that achieved by RNU in a historic dataset.

This research is being done to determine the efficacy of selpercatinib to restore radioactive iodine (I-131 NaI) uptake and allow for I-131 treatment in people with RET fusion-positive radioiodine-refractory thyroid cancer. This research study involves the study drug selpercatinib in combination with standard of care treatments, I-131 and thyrotropin alfa (rhTSH). Read Less

This trial examines the usefulness of two educational programs for parents with late-stage cancer who have a 5 - 17 year old child. The programs are designed to enhance the quality of the parent-child relationship and add to the parent's confidence in managing the impact of their cancer on their child. Educational programs may reduce anxiety and depression and improve the well-being and quality of life of parents with advanced cancers and their children. Recruitment occurs nationally via referral to the Fred Hutch/University of Washington Cancer Consortium team. Read Less

Pediatric cancer survivors are at an increased risk of excessive weight gain and reduced exercise behaviors with the potential for this risk to worsen over time. With over 80% of pediatric cancer patients living to adulthood, many pediatric cancer survivors experience long-term health consequences such as heart disease - the leading cause of death in this population. The purpose of this clinical research study is to teach parents/caregivers skills that will help prevent and reduce the problems of obesity in childhood cancer survivors. In this study, parents have the opportunity to participate in one of two web-based groups in which parents in either group will learn valuable information to improve the health of their child and of themselves.

This is a first-in-human, open label, Phase 1/2 study to investigate the safety and efficacy of TAS3351 in patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring an acquired C797S epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. Read Less

The primary aim is to test whether abatacept, as compared to placebo, is associated with a reduction in major adverse cardiac events (MACE) among participants hospitalized with myocarditis secondary to an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI). The primary outcome, MACE, is a composite of first occurrence of cardiovascular death, non-fatal sudden cardiac arrest, cardiogenic shock, significant ventricular arrythmias, significant bradyarrythmias, or incident heart failure.
