Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Paid Clinical Trials in Maryland

Background: A person s tumor is studied for mutations. When cells are found that can attack the mutation in a person s tumor, the genes from those cells are studied to find the parts that make the attack possible. White blood cells are then taken from the person s body, and the gene transfer occurs in a laboratory. A type of virus is used to transfer the genes that make those white blood cells able to attack the mutation in the tumor. The gene transfer therapy is the return of those white blood cells back to the person. Objective: To see if gene transfer therapy of white blood cells can shrink tumors. Eligibility: People with certain metastatic cancer for which standard treatments have not worked. Design: Participants may complete screening under another protocol. Screening includes: Getting tumor cells from a previous procedure Medical history Physical exam Scans Blood, urine, heart, and lung tests The study has 8 stages: Screening tests repeated over 1-2 weeks. Participants will have leukapheresis: Blood is removed by a needle in one arm. A machine removes white blood cells. The rest of the blood is returned by a needle in the other arm. Care at home over approximately 12 weeks. Stopping therapy for 4-6 weeks while their cells are changed in a lab. Hospital stay approximately 3-4 weeks for treatment. An IV catheter will be placed in the chest to administer drugs. Patients on Arm 2 of the study will receive the first dose of pembrolizumab while in the hospital. Three additional doses will be given after the cell infusion 3 weeks apart. Receiving changed cells by catheter. Then getting a drug over 1-5 days to help the cells live longer. Recover in the hospital for 1-2 weeks. Participants will get drugs and have blood and urine tests. Participants will take an antibiotic and maybe an antiviral for at least 6 months after treatment. They will have repeat screening tests at visits every few months for the first year, every 6 months for the second year, then as determined. Read Less

Background: Surgery is the primary treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is diagnosed in its earlier stages. But the tumors often return. Radiation and chemotherapy can improve survival in some people who have had surgery for NSCLC, but these treatments also cause serious side effects. A new approach, called immunotherapy, may be a better way to stop NSCLC tumors from coming back. Objective: To test a new treatment (H1299 lung cancer cell vaccine combined with the drug N-803) in people who received surgery for NSCLC. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years or older with no sign of disease after surgery for NSCLC. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will have tests of their heart and lung function. They will have imaging scans. Study treatment will be given in 28-day cycles. Participants will visit the clinic on the first day of each cycle. They will receive 2 treatments at each visit: The study vaccine is given as 2-4 small shots under the skin of the thigh or arm. N-803 is given as a shot under the skin of the abdomen. Treatment will continue for 6 cycles. Blood tests and imaging scans will be repeated throughout the study. Participants will have a blood test 1 month after receiving the 6th vaccine. Some participants may then resume taking N-803; they may also receive 2 more vaccinations at 3 and 6 months after their previous treatment. Follow-up visits will continue for up to 5 years.

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), a group of lung cancers that have spread to nearby tissues or to other parts of the body. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) are proteins that help cells to grow and divide. A damage (also called mutation) to the building plans (genes) for these proteins in cancer cells leads to a production of abnormal EGFR and/or HER2. These abnormal proteins drive the growth and the spread of the cancer. Several EGFR and/or HER2 mutations exist in the cancer cells. Two mutations observed in NSCLC are called EGFR- or HER2exon20ins and EGFR C797X. The study treatment, BAY2927088, works by blocking the mutated EGFR protein and also its ex20ins version which are present in NSCLC. It is also believed to work against HER2 and HER2ex20ins mutations. Researchers think this may help stop the further spread of NSCLC cancer. This is the first time that researchers will study BAY2927088 in humans. In this study, the researchers want to learn more about using BAY2927088 in participants who have NSCLC with EGFR and/or HER2 mutations including EGFRex20ins and/or HER2ex20ins mutations. The main aims of this study are to find for BAY2927088 how safe BAY2927088 is how it affects the body (also referred to as tolerability) how BAY2927088 moves into, through and out of the body the maximum amount of BAY2927088 that the participants can take without too many side effects. The researchers will also study the action of BAY2927088 against the cancer. The study will have three parts: Dose Escalation, Backfill, and Dose Expansion. Each participant of the first, so called dose escalation part, will be assigned to one of specific sequential dose groups for BAY2927088. The amount of BAY2927088 that is given increases stepwise from one group to the next. The second may be initiated at any dose that has already been tested during the first part and found to be safe and to have either reached a predicted efficacious exposure range or to have induced an objective response. The first part and second part will run concurrently. The participants of the third, so called dose expansion part, will receive the most appropriate dose of BAY2927088 found in the first and second parts. The third part may be initiated in parallel with the first and second part based on emerging data. During the study, the participants will take the study treatment in 3 week periods called "cycles". They will in general take BAY2927088 once daily until their cancer gets worse, until they have medical problems, until they leave the study or until the study is terminated. Participants will have around 5 visits in each cycle. During the study, the study team will: take blood and urine samples take regular CT or MRI scans to check if the participants' cancer has gotten better or worse check the participants' overall health and heart health ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if they do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments. Read Less

Background: The NCI Surgery Branch has developed an experimental therapy that involves taking white blood cells from patients' tumors, growing them in the laboratory in large numbers, and then giving the cells back to the patient. These cells are called Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes, or TIL and we have given this type of treatment to over 100 patients. In this study, we are selecting a specific subset of white blood cells from the tumor that we think are the most effective in fighting tumors and will use only these cells in making the tumor fighting cells. Objective: The purpose of this study is to see if these specifically selected tumor fighting cells can cause non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors to shrink and to see if this treatment is safe. Eligibility: - Adults age 18-72 with NSCLC who have a tumor that can be safely removed. Design: Work up stage: Patients will be seen as an outpatient at the NIH clinical Center and undergo a history and physical examination, scans, x-rays, lab tests, and other tests as needed Surgery: If the patients meet all of the requirements for the study they will undergo surgery to remove a tumor that can be used to grow the TIL product. Leukapheresis: Patients may undergo leukapheresis to obtain additional white blood cells. {Leukapheresis is a common procedure, which removes only the white blood cells from the patient.} Treatment: Once their cells have grown, the patients will be admitted to the hospital for the conditioning chemotherapy, the TIL cells and aldesleukin. They will stay in the hospital for about 4 weeks for the treatment. Follow up: Patients will return to the clinic for a physical exam, review of side effects, lab tests, and scans about every 1-3 months for the first year, and then every 6 months to 1 year as long as their tumors are shrinking. Follow up visits take up to 2 days. Read Less

The trial will comprise several cohorts for dose confirmation in monotherapy as well as in combinations of BNT116 as mentioned above. Read Less

Background: Cancer has a major impact in the United States and across the world. In 2015, over 1.5 million new cases of cancer were diagnosed in the U.S. Researchers want to study samples from people with cancer or a pre-malignant condition. They hope to develop more effective treatments. Objective: To better understand the biology of malignancies and why certain cancers respond differently to treatment. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with cancer or a pre-cancerous condition. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. Their diagnosis will be confirmed by the NCI Laboratory of Pathology. Participants will send tissue blocks or slides from their original tumor biopsy. At least once, participants will have a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Participants may have the following tests. They may have them more than once: Apheresis. A needle in one arm removes blood. Blood is run through a machine and the sample cells are taken out. The rest of the blood is returned by a needle in the other arm. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. The hipbone will be numbed. A needle will be put into the hipbone. Bone marrow will be taken out through the needle. Piece of cancer tissue taken by a needle and syringe. Computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/or positron emission tomography (PET) scan or ultrasound to help locate their tumor. For the scans, they lie in a machine that takes pictures. A small piece of skin removed. Participants will be contacted by phone once a year to find out how they are doing. ... Read Less
