Study to Assess the Feasibility of Stopping Prostate Cancer Treatment Early in Elderly Patients
Recruiting
This study seeks to identify if it is feasible to stop Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone (LHRH) Agonist Therapy in elderly men with prostate cancer. We hypothesize that elderly prostate cancer patients on long term androgen ablation with LHRH agonists will be permanently castrated and do not require ongoing LHRH agonist therapy. Participants will be monitored by testosterone testing throughout study.

New Strategies to Enhance Smoking Cessation
Recruiting
The study goal is to get feedback on ways researchers can communicate complex research findings on smoking cessation to better inform patients' decisions to use medication and/or quit smoking. This will help researchers and clinicians to provide effective, easy-to-implement treatments designed to address tobacco-related health disparities in Black and other racial/ethnic subgroups. It will also help improve health literacy to change misperceptions and mistrust on uptake of varenicline and other... Read More

A Study to Learn More About How Well BAY 2927088 Works and How Safe it is Compared With Standard Treatment, in Participants Who Have Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) With Mutations of the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)
Recruiting
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic changes called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mutations. Advanced NSCLC is a group of lung cancers that have spread to nearby tissues or to other parts of the body or that are unlikely to be cured or controlled with currently available treatments. HER2 is a protein that helps cells to grow and divide. A damage (also called mutation) to the building... Read More
