Evaluation of Umbilical Cord-Derived Wharton's Jelly Stem Cells for the Treatment of Acute Graft Versus Host Disease
Recruiting
This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of two different doses of umbilical cord derived, ex-vivo cultured and expanded Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (MSCTC-0010) in the treatment of acute Graft versus Host Disease (aGVHD). The first 5 participants enrolled in the study will receive a lower dose of MSCTC-0010. If none of the first 5 participants have treatment-related serious adverse events (TRSAEs) for 42 days, then the next 5 participants will receive a slightly higher dose... Read More

Sacituzumab Govitecan for the Treatment for Patients With Locally Advanced, Recurrent, or Metastatic Cholangiocarcinoma
Recruiting
This phase II trial tests how well sacituzumab govitecan works in treating patients with cholangiocarcinoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Sacituzumab govitecan is a monoclonal antibody, called hRS7, linked to a toxic agent, called SN-38. HRS7 is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to s... Read More

Family-Implemented Treatment on the Behavioral Inflexibility of Children With Autism

Microbiome in Immunotherapy naïve NSCLC Patients Receiving PD-1/L1 Blockade (MIP_NSCLC)
Recruiting
This phase IV study is hoping to determine if examining the microbiome in non-small cell lung cancer, immunotherapy naive participants can predict the effectiveness of immunotherapy treatment as well as determine ahead of time adverse events and their severity. In addition, the investigator will look into microbiome changing modifiers.

Comparing Hypo-fractionated Intensity- Modulated Radiation Therapy to Standard- Fractionated IMRT Along With Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Recruiting
The hypothesis for this study is that hypofractionated IMRT to 62.5 Gy in 25 fractions (2.5 Gy/fraction) with concurrent carboplatin and paclitaxel, followed by maintenance durvalumab will improve locoregional control at 18 months by 10% compared to standard-fractionated chemo-IMRT/durvalumab. A modest improvement in locoregional control (LRC) was selected as a target which could merit further study of this hypofractionated IMRT regimen in a Phase III trial

Ipatasertib and Docetaxel in Metastatic NSCLC Patients Who Have Failed 1st Line Immunotherapy
Recruiting
For metastatic/advanced NSCLC patients who do not have targetable mutations, either immunotherapy targeting the programmed death-1 and its ligand (PD-1/L1) pathway alone or in combination with platinum doublet chemotherapy is now a standard of care. However, still about half of the patients do not benefit due to treatment resistance. It is therefore critically important to find novel therapies and combinations to benefit patients who have failed or are intolerant to 1st line immunotherapy. This... Read More
