Carboplatin Treatment Options in Michigan

The purpose of this study is to determine whether an investigational immunotherapy nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab or in combination with standard of care chemotherapy is more effective than standard of care chemotherapy alone in treating participants with previously untreated inoperable or metastatic urothelial cancer.

The purpose of this study is to further advance the ability to practice personalized medicine by learning which new drug agents are most effective with which types of breast cancer tumors and by learning more about which early indicators of response (tumor analysis prior to surgery via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images along with tissue and blood samples) are predictors of treatment success.

The primary aim of this randomized phase III trial was to study whether the addition of maintenance chemotherapy delivered after surgical resection and focal radiation would be better than surgery and focal radiation alone. The trial also studied if patients who received induction chemotherapy and then either achieved a complete response or went on to have a complete resection would also benefit from maintenance chemotherapy. Children ages 1-21 years with newly diagnosed intracranial ependymoma were included. There were 2 arms that were not randomized. One arm studied patients with Grade II tumors located in the supratentorial compartment that were completely resected. One arm studied patients with residual tumor and those patients all received maintenance chemotherapy after focal radiation. Chemotherapy drugs, such as vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving chemotherapy in combination with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells and allow doctors to save the part of the body where the cancer started. Read Less

Study CA239-0010 is an open-label, Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the clinical efficacy of adagrasib in combination with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy in the first-line setting for patients with advanced NSCLC with TPS ≥ 1%, TPS \<50% and KRAS G12C mutation Read Less

The primary objective of the study was to evaluate whether progression-free survival (PFS) was prolonged with the addition of veliparib to standard platinum-based chemotherapy (carboplatin/paclitaxel \[C/P\]) and continued as maintenance therapy compared with chemotherapy alone. Read Less

This is a phase 1b study to assess the safety and tolerability of tarlatamab in combination with programmed death ligand (PD-L1) inhibition with and without chemotherapy. Read Less

This randomized phase III trial is studying two different combination chemotherapy regimens to compare how well they work in treating young patients with newly diagnosed supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors or high-risk medulloblastoma when given before additional intense chemotherapy followed by peripheral blood stem cell rescue. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is more effective when given before a peripheral stem cell transplant in treating supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors or medulloblastoma.

This is an unblinded, randomized clinical study comparing the efficacy of DNA damaging chemotherapy using carboplatin, to standard of care therapy for patients who have metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. This trial will use olaparib or carboplatin as initial therapy with crossover to the alternate or second-line drug after first progression for patients with tumors containing BARD1, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, CHEK1, FANCL, PALB2, RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D, or RAD54L inactivating mutations. Participants are randomized (1:1) and receive either carboplatin (AUC 5, IV) every 21 days, first or olaparib taken orally (300 mg), twice daily in 28 day cycles, until intolerance, complete response, or progression by Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3) criteria. Participants then crossover from the first-line therapy to the second-line therapy with the opposite study medication and receive treatment to intolerance or progression (whichever is first). Enrolled participants will be allowed to crossover to second line therapy if they continue to meet initial eligibility criteria, and at least three weeks have elapsed since last administration of either carboplatin or olaparib. Throughout the study, safety and tolerability will be assessed. Progression will be evaluated with bone scan, CT of the abdomen/pelvis, or MRI and PSA as per PCWG3 criteria. Read Less

Multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation Phase I/Ib clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability, the MTD/RP2D, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and antitumor activity of EOS100850 (Inupadenant) as a Single Agent and in Combination with Pembrolizumab and/or Chemotherapy in Participants with Advanced Cancers.

The purpose of this study is to find out if the addition of nivolumab can improve 2 year progression free survival (PFS) as compared to standard of care of fractionated radiation therapy (RT) and carboplatin/paclitaxel in subjects with high risk HPV-related squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx (tonsil, base of tongue, oropharyngeal wall, soft palate). Fractionated means the radiation will be administered in fragments or parts across multiple days. Read Less

Successful treatment of lung cancer with radiation therapy requires that the physicians determine exactly where the tumor is in the patient's body and seek to limit any unnecessary radiation to normal parts of the body. This study is designed to apply functional imaging, Fluorodeoxyglucose-Positron Emission Tomography (FDG-PET) ("a PET scan") and Ventilation/Perfusion Single Photon Emission Computerized Tomography (V/Q SPECT) ("a perfusion scan"), before treatment and then again during treatment to see if this scanning helps predict how well the treatment works and how well the lung functions during treatment. FDG-PET is a modern technology that uses small amounts of a radioactive glucose (FDG) to make images of the whole body and areas of active cancer. V/Q SPECT is an image mapping tool that helps assess how well the lungs are working. A Computerized Tomography (CT) will also be performed along with both of these procedures to help the researchers see clearly where the cancer or the healthy lung is located. The researchers are also doing blood and urine tests in this study to look for markers to see if this helps them determine the patient's risk of developing side effects from radiation to the lungs. The researchers hope by using these types of tests that they can have more information to help decrease the amount of toxicity patients have from this type of treatment. The researchers hope that this study will help them in the future to design radiation treatment plans that provide the best treatment for each individual patient. Read Less

This study is planned to be conducted in 2 parts: Part 1: Dose Escalation and Part 2: Safety Run-In and Randomized Expansion. The primary objectives of Part 1 are 1) To characterize the safety and tolerability of GS-3583 as monotherapy in participants with advanced solid tumors. 2) To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of GS-3583 as monotherapy in participants with advanced solid tumors. The primary objectives of Part 2 is to assess the safety and tolerability and to determine the RP2D of GS-3583 in combination with zimberelimab (ZIM) and platinum (cisplatin or carboplatin) + 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) chemotherapy in participants with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) (Cohort A) or in combination with docetaxel in participants with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Cohort B).
