A Study of Combination Chemotherapy for Patients With Newly Diagnosed DAWT and Relapsed FHWT

Comparing the Effectiveness of the Immunotherapy Agents Rituximab or Mosunetuzumab in Patients With Nodular Lymphocyte-Predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma
Recruiting
This phase II trial compares mosunetuzumab to the usual treatment (rituximab) for improving survival in patients with nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL). Rituximab and mosunetuzumab are monoclonal antibodies. They bind to a protein called CD20, which is found on B cells (a type of white blood cell) and some types of cancer cells. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Mosunetuzumab may be more effective at extending survival in patients with NLPHL than the usual... Read More

Thoracotomy Versus Thoracoscopic Management of Pulmonary Metastases in Patients With Osteosarcoma
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares the effect of open thoracic surgery (thoracotomy) to thoracoscopic surgery (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery or VATS) in treating patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung (pulmonary metastases). Open thoracic surgery is a type of surgery done through a single larger incision (like a large cut) that goes between the ribs, opens up the chest, and removes the cancer. Thoracoscopy is a type of chest surgery where the doctor makes several small incision... Read More

Study of Pembrolizumab/Vibostolimab (MK-7684A) in Combination With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy Followed by Pembrolizumab/Vibostolimab Versus Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy Followed by Durvalumab in Participants With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (MK-7684A-006/KEYVIBE-006)
Recruiting
This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab/vibostolimab (MK-7684A) in combination with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) followed by pembrolizumab/vibostolimab versus cCRT followed by durvalumab in participants with unresectable, locally advanced, stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). The primary hypotheses are that pembrolizumab/vibostolimab with cCRT followed by pembrolizumab/vibostolimab is superior to cCRT followed by durvalumab with respect to the following... Read More

Strategies and Treatments for Respiratory Infections &Amp; Viral Emergencies (STRIVE): Immune Modulation Strategy Trial
Recruiting
COVID-19 can trigger a dysregulated immune response, and previous studies have shown that immune modulation can improve outcomes in hospitalized patients. This trial is designed to determine whether intensification of immune modulation early in the course of the disease (while patients are on low flow oxygen) with abatacept (active arm) combined with standard of care (SOC) improves recovery as compared with placebo + SOC (placebo arm). For both groups, intensification of immunomodulation will be... Read More

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single treatment with administration of 400 Units NT 201 (botulinum toxin) is superior to placebo (no medicine) for the treatment of lower limb spasticity caused by stroke or traumatic brain injury (Main Period). Participants will be assigned to the treatment groups by chance and neither the participants nor the research staff who interact with them will know the allocation. The following 4 to 5 treatment cycles will investigate the safety and... Read More
