Cancer Clinical Trials in Tampa, FL

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

The purpose of the study is to design a physical activity and dietary intervention for head and neck cancer patients. Read Less

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.

The purpose of the study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of exercise "prehabilitation" for patients preparing for esophageal cancer resection (removal). Read Less

This is a pilot study to determine feasibility and safety of the combination of Dendritic Cell (DC1) vaccines and elacestrant in patients with hormone positive HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to evaluate an exercise program for individuals with hepatobiliary cancer planning for surgery. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to test a treatment strategy with currently approved drugs to see if it is practical to administer the available drugs in a new way that researchers hope could be more effective in treating metastatic breast cancer. Read Less

To determine the effect of a special preparation of cells, called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) stimulated with CD40L, when given with the drug nivolumab, for patients with EGFR, ALK, ROS1, or HER2-genomically altered lung cancer. Read Less

This is a non-registrational, cohort study enrolling eligible Black patients diagnosed with histologically or cytologically, advanced/metastatic NSCLC without known EGFR/ALK/ROS1 tumor mutations, and who are ≥ 18 years of age, ECOG performance status 0-2, and may have detectable ctDNA at baseline.

This Phase III trial will examine the efficacy of computerized cognitive training methods on perceived cognitive impairment in breast cancer survivors. Read Less

This phase II trial studies the side effects of chemotherapy and intensity modulated radiation therapy in treating patients with low-risk HIV-associated anal cancer, and nivolumab after standard of care chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with high-risk HIV-associated anal cancer. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Chemotherapy drugs, such as mitomycin, fluorouracil, and capecitabine, 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 chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. 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. Giving nivolumab after standard of care chemotherapy and radiation therapy may help reduce the risk of the tumor coming back. Read Less

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) in participants with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-low or HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) 0 (who are both hormone receptor \[HR\]-negative and HR-positive) unresectable and/or metastatic breast cancer.
