The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of DB-1303/BNT323 compared with investigator's choice chemotherapy in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) by blinded independent central review (BICR) in the HR+, HER2-low (immunohistochemistry \[IHC\]2+/in situ hybridization \[ISH\]- and IHC 1+) population.

This pilot interventional study evaluates the change from baseline to post-intervention in resilience and other patient-reported outcomes for individuals with a recent diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer (MBC) participating in the Promoting Resilience in Women with Breast Cancer (PRISM) intervention, overall and stratified by race, and to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the PRISM intervention in the MBC population. Black women with MBC have shorter survival from the time of metastatic diagnosis to death, compared to White women with clinically similar disease, and may have more rapid declines in quality of life over time. Adverse social determinants of health may play a role in these outcome disparities, due to both social barriers in accessing care, and through direct stress-mediated biological effects on the host and tumor microenvironment. Interventions to reduce stress and optimize resilience during treatment of MBC may improve quality of life and even improve disease outcomes; however, feasibility of face-to-face intervention during intensive medical treatment is limited. Thus, this study aims to demonstrate the feasibility of a remotely delivered resilience intervention, PRISM, already proven effective in other cancer settings, for MBC patients, and to gather preliminary efficacy data for a future randomized trial.

The purpose of this study is to develop a brief assessment and need-based behavioral intervention for addressing aging-specific concerns in older adults with lung cancer. The long-term goals of this research include identifying the unique concerns of these patients, providing patients with behavioral skills to address their symptom management needs, and enhancing patient engagement with healthcare specialties targeting aging-specific concerns. In the first phase of this study, participants (12 patients with lung cancer, 6 caregivers, 12 providers) will be asked to participate in two individual interviews (each 30-45 minutes in length) via teleconference. During the first interview, participants will be asked to provide feedback on the current version of the assessment and behavioral intervention. Participants will be asked to describe strengths and weaknesses of the materials, topics to add or remove, and any other suggested changes. After the research team has made changes to the materials, participants will be invited to complete a second interview to provide feedback on the updated materials. In the second phase of the study, 16 older adults with lung cancer will complete the revised assessment and participate in the behavioral intervention, in order to a) evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the program and b) measure change in depression, anxiety, pain, and dyspnea.

The purpose of this registry is to evaluate real world experience and outcomes of patients with Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer (UTUC) treated with Jelmyto in the United States. Read Less

The investigators aim to determine the effect of cryotherapy wraps plus compression therapy (henceforth referred to as cryocompression) versus cryotherapy wraps alone on the incidence and degree of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with gynecologic cancer using a noninferiority design. The investigators also aim to determine the effect of cryocompression versus cryotherapy on patient tolerability and patient and staff satisfaction. Read Less

The main purpose of this research study is to determine the amount of opioids that are taken after discharge following a cystectomy, nephrectomy (partial or total), or prostatectomy surgeries via a 30-day post- discharge opioid use and disposal survey. We will also evaluate the impact of an opioid disposal education pamphlet on proper disposal of unused opioids. Read Less

This study is a phase I clinical trial will that will use an investigational cancer vaccine called pING-hHER3FL. pING-hHER3FL is a circular piece of DNA that produces the full length human HER3 protein and will be used in a phase I study as immunotherapeutic agent to target cancers that are known to express the human epidermal growth factor receptor HER3. The human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) family including: HER1 (also known as EGFR), HER2, HER3 and HER4 (also known as ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4 respectively) is an important receptor family for the development of many malignancies. HER3 is overexpressed in breast, lung, gastric, head and neck, ovarian cancer, and melanoma. The objectives of this clinical study is to determine the safety and tolerability of pING-hHER3FL in patients with solid tumor malignancies that have been removed surgically and to test whether immunization with pING-hHER3FL can cause a HER3 specific immune response in patients. Patients enrolled in the study will receive pING-hHER3FL by intramuscular injection (IM) every 4 weeks for 3 total doses. Potential benefits of the research include learning the safety of a vaccine targeting HER3 expressing cancers, whether the pING-hHER3FL vaccine can induce HER3 specific immune responses, and see possible clinical benefit to patients receiving pING-hHER3FL.
