This phase II pilot trial studies the side effects and how well dinutuximab and sargramostim work when combined with chemotherapy in patients with high-risk neuroblastoma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as dinutuximab, may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Sargramostim helps the body produce normal infection-fighting white blood cells. These cells also help the dinutuximab work better. Giving chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant, with drugs such as cisplatin, etoposide, vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, thiotepa, melphalan, etoposide, carboplatin, topotecan, and isotretinoin, helps kill cancer cells that are in the body and helps make room in a patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells). Giving dinutuximab and sargramostim with combination chemotherapy may work better than combination chemotherapy alone in treating patients with high-risk neuroblastoma. Read Less

The goal of this observational study is to understand how genomic and epigenetic factors contribute to resistance against chemo-immunotherapy in adults diagnosed with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) or metastatic large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC). Both ES-SCLC and LCNEC are aggressive forms of lung cancer with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. While initial responses to chemo-immunotherapy are often promising, most patients develop resistance within a few months, resulting in disease progression and limited survival. This study seeks to explore the molecular and cellular changes that drive resistance, providing insights that could guide more personalized and effective treatment strategies in the future. The study focuses on identifying genomic and methylation signatures, as well as analyzing circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and tumor DNA (ctDNA), to better understand the mechanisms of resistance. By collecting and analyzing these biomarkers over time, researchers aim to identify patterns that distinguish patients who benefit long-term from therapy from those who experience early resistance. These findings may pave the way for new diagnostic tools and therapies to predict and overcome resistance to chemo-immunotherapy. The main questions this study seeks to answer are: Are there specific genomic or methylation patterns that predict resistance to chemo-immunotherapy in ES-SCLC and LCNEC? How are circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and tumor DNA (ctDNA) associated with disease progression, treatment response, and survival? What molecular differences exist between patients who respond long-term and those who develop resistance early in their treatment? Participants will: Provide blood and tumor tissue samples before treatment to establish baseline molecular profiles. Undergo follow-up visits every 9 weeks during treatment, where additional blood samples and imaging tests will be collected to monitor disease progression and treatment response. Optionally provide tissue samples through re-biopsy if the disease progresses, enabling researchers to compare changes in tumor biology over time. All blood and tissue samples will be de-identified and securely stored for genomic and epigenetic analyses. Blood samples will be examined for circulating tumor cells and tumor DNA, while tumor tissue samples will undergo in-depth genomic and methylation profiling. Researchers will use advanced molecular and bioinformatics techniques to uncover specific patterns associated with resistance, aiming to improve current treatment strategies and develop more precise therapies. The study will analyze data from patients over three years, encompassing various stages of treatment and disease progression. By examining longitudinal samples, the study aims to capture the dynamic changes that occur in the tumor microenvironment and how these relate to treatment outcomes. This research is particularly important because current treatment options for ES-SCLC and LCNEC are limited, and there are no established methods to predict which patients will respond to chemo-immunotherapy. Identifying biomarkers of resistance could transform clinical care, allowing oncologists to tailor treatments to individual patients' molecular profiles and improve survival outcomes. Ultimately, the findings from this study could lead to the development of new biomarkers for resistance, improve early detection of treatment failure, and provide the foundation for novel therapies targeting resistant cancer cells. By addressing a critical gap in the understanding of resistance mechanisms, the STRATUS trial has the potential to significantly advance the field of personalized oncology. Read Less

This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of veliparib when given together with paclitaxel and carboplatin in treating patients with solid tumors that are metastatic or cannot be removed by surgery and liver or kidney dysfunction. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, 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 veliparib together with paclitaxel and carboplatin may kill more tumor cells. Read Less

This randomized phase III trial studies first-line chemotherapy and trastuzumab to compare how well they work when given with or without bevacizumab in treating patients with breast cancer that overexpresses human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2/NEU) and has spread to other areas of the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, 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. Monoclonal antibodies, such as trastuzumab and bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of breast cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. It is not yet known whether giving first-line chemotherapy together with trastuzumab is more effective with or without bevacizumab in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer that overexpresses HER-2/NEU.

This study will evaluate the surgical safety and feasibility of atezolizumab plus tiragolumab alone or in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment for participants with previously untreated locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study will also evaluate the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and safety of atezolizumab plus tiragolumab alone or in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment, followed by adjuvant atezolizumab plus tiragolumab or adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy.

This randomized phase II trial studies how well temozolomide and capecitabine work compared to standard treatment with cisplatin or carboplatin and etoposide in treating patients with neuroendocrine carcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract or pancreas that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, capecitabine, cisplatin, carboplatin and etoposide, 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. Certain types of neuroendocrine carcinomas may respond better to treatments other than the current standard treatment of cisplatin and etoposide. It is not yet known whether temozolomide and capecitabine may work better than cisplatin or carboplatin and etoposide in treating patients with this type of neuroendocrine carcinoma, called non-small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma.
