Cancer Clinical Trials in Houston, TX

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is a common type of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) in children and represents the second most common cancer in adolescent females. Recently targeted drugs that block many of the genetic drivers of DTC have become available. While Investigators know that these drugs shrink DTC tumors in many cases, the impact on radioactive iodine (RAI) avidity has not been systematically studied. Read Less

The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HRO761 and identify the recommended dose(s), i.e., the optimal safe and active dose of HRO761 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab or irinotecan that can be given to patients who have cancers with specific molecular alterations called MSIhi (Microsatellite Instability-high) or dMMR (Mismatch Repair Deficient) that might work best to treat these specific cancer types and to understand how well HRO761 is able to treat those cancers.

This research study is studying a combination of HER2-directed therapies (trastuzumab and pertuzumab) and hormonal therapy as a treatment after surgery for hormone receptor positive breast cancer. The study drugs involved in this study are: * A combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab given as an injection under the skin (PHESGO) * Hormonal (endocrine) Treatment Read Less

This is a Phase 3, open-label, randomized, clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of gedatolisib plus fulvestrant and CDK4/6 Inhibitors for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer. Read Less

TTX-080-001 is a Phase 1, open label, dose escalation and dose expansion clinical study to determine the safety, tolerability, and recommended Phase 2 dose of TTX-080 monotherapy (HLA-G inhibitor) and in combination with either pembrolizumab (PD-1 inhibitor), cetuximab (EGFR inhibitor) or FOLFIRI plus cetuximab (EGFR inhibitor) in patients with advanced refractory / resistant solid malignancies including metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients.

This research study is studying a new compound, AZD8205, as a possible treatment for advanced or metastatic solid tumours alone or in combination with anti-cancer agents Read Less

It is critical to provide accessible evidence-based psychosocial support to parents and caregivers of children with cancer (PCCC) in order to mitigate individual and family-level psychosocial risks. This effectiveness trial evaluates an eHealth intervention for English- and Spanish-speaking (PCCC) with study endpoints focused on decreasing negative psychosocial sequelae (acute distress, posttraumatic stress, and anxiety) and improving coping abilities (coping self-efficacy, cognitive coping strategies). The long-term goal of this research program is to sustain and disseminate an effective, scalable, high-reach, and cost-effective intervention to provide crucial support to PCCC across the pediatric cancer trajectory.

This is a proof-of-concept study designed to investigate HER3-DXd monotherapy in locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The study is enrolling cohorts of participants with melanoma \[cutaneous/acral\], squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SCCHN), and HER2-negative gastric cancerovarian carcinoma, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, bladder cancer, esophageal carcinoma, pancreatic carcinoma, and prostate cancer.

Study CP-MGD019-03 is an open-label study of lorigerlimab in participants with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) or clear cell gynecologic cancer (CCGC). Approximately 60 participants will be enrolled. The study will assess the efficacy and safety of lorigerlimab in participants with PROC or CCGC. Participants will receive lorigerlimab by intravenous (IV) infusion on Day 1 of every 21-day treatment cycle. Treatment cycles will continue until progression of cancer, unacceptable side effects, withdrawal of consent by the participant, or the study ends. Participants will be monitored closely for side effects by physical exam and routine laboratory tests every cycle. Tumor status will be checked approximately every 9 weeks for the first year, then every 12 weeks for the duration of treatment. Participants will have a safety followup performed within 30 days after treatment discontinuation. Participants who discontinue study treatment for reasons other than progression of cancer, will continue CA-125 and tumor assessments every 12 weeks. Participants who discontinue study treatment for progression of cancer will enter the 6-month survival follow up portion of the study. Read Less

This is a first in human, open-label, multi-center Phase 1 / 2 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and initial efficacy of AU-007 in patients with advanced solid tumors. AU-007 will be administered either as a monotherapy, or in combination with a single loading dose of aldesleukin, or with both AU-007 and aldesleukin given every 2 weeks (Q2w). Once the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of AU-007 plus aldesleukin was determined, (AU-007 Q2w plus a single loading dose of aldesleukin), AU-007 plus aldesleukin is also being administered with avelumab or nivolumab.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Colorectal Balloon Tube (hereinafter referred to as COLO-BT™) device, a single use, temporary intraluminal bypass device, intended to reduce contact of fecal content with an anastomotic site, following colorectal surgery (open or laparoscopic) Read Less

This is a multicenter, first-in-human (FIH), open label, Phase 1 dose escalation and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) extension trial with a primary objective to define the RP2D of SRG-514 when administered intraoperatively to patients undergoing breast-conserving cancer surgery. SRG-514 will be investigated utilizing a 3+3 convention dose escalation cohorts. Read Less
