Targeted Treatment for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer That Has Increased Copies of the MET Gene (An Expanded Lung-MAP Treatment Trial)
NCT06116682
Recruiting
This phase II Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial tests how well amivantamab-subcutaneous (SC) works in treating patients patients with MET amplification non-small cell lung cancer. Amivantamab-SC is a drug that reduces extra copies of the MET gene, a change present in your tumor. Giving amivantamab-SC may lower the chance of the growth or spread of advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has extra copies of the MET gene in the tumor.

Targeted Treatment for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer That Has a MET Exon 14 Skipping Gene Change (An Expanded Lung-MAP Treatment Trial)
NCT06031688
Recruiting
This phase II Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial tests tepotinib with or without ramucirumab for the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (stage IV) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Tepotinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called MET. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking t... Read More

Culturally Tailored Educational Video to Promote Lung Cancer Screening in Vulnerable Communities
NCT06010355
Recruiting
This clinical trial evaluates the impact of a culturally tailored educational video on the perceptions of lung cancer and lung cancer screening in vulnerable communities. Lung cancer is the most common cancer type. African-American communities have a higher rate than any other racial or ethnic group in the United States and accounts for the highest number of deaths among African-Americans. Lung cancer is in the top three causes of cancer death among Asian men and women. Research has shown that l... Read More

Neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab and IO102-103 for Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (SCCHN).
NCT05977907
Recruiting
This research is being done to see if it is safe to give investigational combination of study drugs (Pembrolizumab and IO102-103) before surgery to people with surgically resectable (removable) newly diagnosed or recurrent metastatic SCCHN. This will be done by watching participants closely for possible side effects from Pembrolizumab and IO102-103. In addition, participants will be monitored for any delays to their surgery due to the study drugs.

Study of Ribociclib and Everolimus in HGG and DIPG
NCT05843253
Recruiting
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the study drugs ribociclib and everolimus to treat pediatric and young adult patients newly diagnosed with a high-grade glioma (HGG), including DIPG, that have genetic changes in pathways (cell cycle, PI3K/mTOR) that these drugs target. The main question the study aims to answer is whether the combination of ribociclib and everolimus can prolong the life of patients diagnosed with HGG, including DIPG.

Fluorescent Intra-operative Tumor Margin Examination
NCT04719156
Recruiting
Tumor margin confirmation is important to confirming appropriate disease excision. Current standard of care is to take select margin samples to pathology for intra-operative readings. However, this is expensive, time consuming, and only assesses the margin contained within the specific sample. In prior work the investigators have determined that indocyanine green (ICG) is highly specific to the tumor bed when injected shortly before surgery. The investigators hypothesize that ICG will be able to... Read More
