This is a Phase 3 Randomized, double-blind, Multiregional Study of Ivonescimab Combined with Chemotherapy Versus Pembrolizumab Combined with Chemotherapy for the First-line Treatment of Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer. The primary endpoint is overall survival and progression free survival assessed by investigator. The key secondary endpoints include response and safety. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the online, simulated human "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening" decision aid (https://www.cdc.gov/prostate-cancer/talk-to-nathan/index.html) is effective in helping patients decide about prostate cancer screening. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is using the "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening" decision aid effective in improving knowledge, overcoming health literacy barriers, and resolving decisional conflict compared to a standard decision aid or standard education materials? * What are the barriers and best practices for incorporating Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening into the flow of primary care practice? Researchers will compare "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening" to a standard decision aid and to standard prostate cancer screening education materials to test the effectiveness of using "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening." Participants will: * Use "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening," use a standard decision aid, or use standard education materials about prostate cancer screening * Visit the primary care clinic for follow-up * Complete surveys as part of the clinical trial Read Less

This clinical trial evaluates whether a shared response plan (SHAREDCare) improves follow-up care for lung cancer survivors. As the number of cancer survivors increases, there is a new need for high-quality chronic illness care. High-quality chronic illness care can be difficult to deliver and involves working with the patient to be certain they have what they need to be actively involved with their care to meet their needs. SHAREDCare allows the patient to work with a navigator to review identified distress and social needs. The patient and navigator discuss the needs and develop a shared response plan to address the needs in ways that consider the patient's current behaviors, beliefs, and motivation. The plan also establishes specific patient goals, anticipates barriers, and establishes how the navigator will follow-up on the needs and adjust care and assistance when needed. Using a shared response plan may improve follow-up care for lung cancer survivors. Read Less

This pilot trial studies a telephone-based intervention to see if it increases adherence to adjuvant hormonal therapy in patients with breast cancer. Increasing communication between doctors and patients with breast cancer may help patients to better follow recommendations on taking adjuvant hormonal treatment medication. A telephone-based intervention may help to increase doctor-patient communication and patients' adherence to their prescribed medication. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to establish the safety and preliminary antitumor activity of ORIC-944 as a single agent and in combinations with ARPIs in patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine how the STRONG intervention compares with usual care for reducing malnutrition among gastroesophageal cancer patients. Read Less

This phase I study is designed to establish the safety, maximally tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of the ERK inhibitor ulixertinib (BVD-523) when combined with the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib. Read Less

DESTINY-Gastric03 will investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and preliminary antitumor activity of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) alone or in combination with chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy in HER2-expressing advanced/metastatic gastric/gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and esophageal adenocarcinoma patients. Study hypotheses: Combination of T-DXd with cytotoxic chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy administered to subjects at the recommended phase 2 dose will show manageable safety and tolerability and preliminary anti-tumor efficacy so as to permit further clinical testing. T-DXd in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy or immune checkpoint inhibitor administered to HER2-expressing gastric, GEJ and esophageal cancer patients who have not received prior treatment for advanced/metastatic disease will show preliminary evidence of anti-tumour activity and the potential to become a therapeutic option for this patient population.

This phase 1, single-center, open-label study explores the safety of escalating doses of chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T) cells in subjects with relapsed/refractory triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Dato-DXd in combination with rilvegostomig or rilvegostomig monotherapy compared with pembrolizumab monotherapy as a first line therapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression (TC ≥ 50%) and without actionable genomic alterations.

The purpose of this gene therapy research study is to test the safety and tolerability of using a new treatment called autologous T lymphocyte chimeric antigen receptor cells against the B7-H3 antigen (iC9.CAR.B7-H3 T cells) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that came back after receiving standard therapy for this cancer. The iC9.CAR.B7-H3 treatment is experimental and has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Read Less

In a randomized controlled trial (RCT), the investigators will recruit participants to an 8-week "app-based wellness" intervention, followed by a 12-week follow-up period. The investigators will recruit a total of 276 self-declared Chronic Hematological Cancer (CHC) patients who (representative of age, race/ethnicity, and gender) will be on stable CHC pharmacologic therapy (if any), self-identify as sleep disturbed (\>5 on Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), do not have a sleep disorder diagnosis, do not take sleep medication/supplements \>3 times per week, and are not currently practicing regular meditation. Aim 1: Test the efficacy of two app-based wellness programs (10 minutes per day) on the primary outcome of self reported sleep disturbance (Insomnia Severity Index (primary) and PROMIS Sleep Disturbance (secondary)) and secondary sleep outcomes including sleep impairment (PROMIS Sleep Impairment Scale) and sleep efficiency measured via sleep diaries and actigraphy. Aim 2: Test the efficacy of two app-based wellness programs (10 minutes per day) on inflammatory markers (i.e., TNF-a, IL-6, IL-8, CRP), fatigue, and emotional distress (i.e., anxiety, depressive symptoms measured with PROMIS®). Aim 3: Explore the sustained effects (i.e., 20 weeks from baseline) of two app-based wellness programs (10 minutes per day) in CHC patients. Read Less
