Cancer Clinical Trials in Houston, TX

The purpose of this platform study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary antitumor activity of novel RAS(ON) inhibitors combined with Standard(s) of Care (SOC) or with each other. The first three subprotocols include the following: Subprotocol A: RMC-6291 +/- RMC-6236 + SOC Subprotocol B: RMC-6236 + SOC Subprotocol C: RMC-9805 +/- RMC-6236 + SOC Read Less

This study is a first in human Phase 1 study that involves patients with a type of cancer called HER2 (Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2) positive cancer. This study asks patients to volunteer to take part in a research study investigating the safety and efficacy of using special immune cells called HER2 chimeric antigen receptor specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (HER2 specific CAR T cells), in combination with intra-tumor injection of CAdVEC, an oncolytic adenovirus that is designed to help the immune system including HER2 specific CAR T cell react to the tumor. The study is looking at combining these two treatments together, because we think that the combination of treatments will work better than each treatment alone. We also hope to learn the best dose level of the treatments and whether or not it is safe to use them together. In this study, CAdVEC will be injected into participants tumor at one tumor site which is most easiest to reach. Once it infects the cancer cells, activation of the immune response will occur so it can attack and kill cancer cells. (This approach may have limited effects on the other tumor sites that have not received the oncolytic virus injection, so, patients will also receive specific T cells following the intratumor CAdVEC injection.) These T cells are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill cells infected with viruses and tumor cells. Investigators want to see if these cells can survive in the blood and affect the tumor. Both CAdVEC and HER2-specific autologous CAR T are investigational products. They are not approved by the FDA.

This is a multi-site, open-label, Phase II, randomized, trial to compare the efficacy of RO7198457 versus watchful waiting in patients with circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) positive, surgically resected Stage II/III rectal cancer, or Stage II (high risk)/Stage III colon cancer. Read Less

The intent of this study is to evaluate actionable outputs from TRAQinform Theranostics in a prospective, multi-center, non-interventional clinical study. The primary objective is to investigate intent-to-change treatment decisions after the addition of TRAQinform Theranostics. The exploratory objective is to investigate if treatment efficacy and treatment-related toxicity could be detected by TRAQinform Theranostics following PSMA PET/CT at week 12. Read Less

This is a global, open-label, multicenter Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and antitumor activity of PRO1107 in patients with advanced solid tumors. This study consists of 2 parts, Part A: dose escalation and dose level expansion, and Part B: tumor specific expansion. Read Less

This is a Phase 1/2A, open label, multicenter, nonrandomized, multiple dose, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study of PF-07220060 administered as a single agent and then in combination with endocrine therapy. The study consists of two parts and a China and Japan monotherapy cohort. Part 1 includes dose escalation cohorts evaluating PF-07220060 as single agent or in combination with endocrine therapy or enzalutamide, as well as a food effect cohort and a DDI cohort Part 2 includes dose expansion cohorts evaluating PF-07220060 in combination with endocrine therapy or enzalutamide. In Part 1A, single escalating doses of PF-07220060 alone will be administered to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and select the recommended dose for expansion In Part 1B and Part 1C, PF-07220060 will be administered in combination with 1 of 2 endocrine therapies (letrozole and fulvestrant, respectively). In Part 1D, food effect assessment of PF-07220060 at the RP2D dose level from the Part 1A will be conducted In Part 1E, the effect of PF-07220060 on the PK of midazolam will be evaluated (DDI) In Part 1F, escalating dosed of PF-07220060 will be administered in combination with enzalutamide Part 1B and Part 1C may commence at MTD or before reaching the MTD at a dose level in Part 1A. Part 2A is a dose expansion cohort with fulvestrant and will explore more than one dose of PF-07220060 in participants diagnosed with mBC. Part 2B and Part 2C are expansion for combination therapy of PF-07220060 with letrozole and fulvestrant, respectively. Part 2D is the expansion cohort for combination therapy of PF-07220060 with enzalutamide. Part 2E is an expansion cohort to evaluate PF-07220060 Monotherapy versus PF-07220060 plus fulvestrant combination therapy. The China monotherapy cohort will evaluate safety, tolerability and PK of PF-07220060 administered as single agent in Chinese participants. The Japan monotherapy cohort will evaluate safety, tolerability and PK of PF-07220060 administered as a single agent in Japanese participants. Read Less

This is an open-label, multi center study to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of PF-07248144 and early signs of clinical efficacy of PF-07248144 as a single agent and in combination with either fulvestrant or letrozole + palbociclib or with PF-07220060 + fulvestrant Read Less

Participants will a diagnosis of gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma and will have either a minimally invasive proximal gastrectomy (MIPG) or a minimally invasive total gastrectomy (MITG) as part of their routine care. Participants with complete a questionnaire 1 month before the surgical procedure and then 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after the surgical procedure. Read Less

In this Project, we will use therapeutic target -focused (TTF) profiling, genome-wide mRNA profiling and assessments of tumor phosphopeptides and DNA that are shed into the blood stream to define how various molecular factors alone and in combination relate to resistance to therapy, to prognosis, and to metastatic patterns at relapse. We will examine how the presence of factors that drive cell growth, antagonize apoptosis, or confer resistance in other ways may counter the effect of systemic therapies and/or promote rapid tumor recurrence. In this way, we will identify new, previously unappreciated potential therapeutic targets while also identifying which targets are most likely to increase resistance to therapy and worsen prognosis.

The goal of this research study is to measure changes in patients' quality of life after surgeries that affect the facial nerve, including nerve transfer as treatment for facial paralysis. Read Less

This protocol describes pilot testing of an educational shared decision-making intervention to help men with localized prostate cancer make decisions with their health care providers about if and when to de-escalate surveillance testing. The project is important because for many patients their cancer does not progress to the point of needed curative treatment or their health status changes such that they are no longer good candidates for treatment. For these men, de-escalating ongoing surveillance (e.g., fewer biopsies or imaging studies) is a reasonable option. Read Less
