Cisplatin Treatment Options in Texas

This phase II trial studies how well gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin work in treating participants with invasive bladder urothelial cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride 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.

This phase III trial compares standard therapy given after surgery (adjuvant) to standard therapy given before and after surgery (perioperative) in treating patients with stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can be removed by surgery (resectable). The usual approach for patients with resectable NSCLC is chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy before surgery, after surgery, or both before and after surgery. This study is being done to find out which approach is better at treating patients with lung cancer. Treatment will be administered according to the current standard of care at the time of enrollment. Chemotherapy options may include cisplatin, carboplatin, pemetrexed, gemcitabine, docetaxel, and vinorelbine at standard doses according to the treating physician. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by stopping cells from using folic acid to make deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making DNA and may kill tumor cells. Docetaxel is in a class of medications called taxanes. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Other chemotherapy drugs, such as vinorelbine, 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 . Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, pembrolizumab, and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Starting treatment with chemotherapy and immunotherapy prior to surgery and continuing treatment after surgery may be a more effective treatment option than adjuvant therapy alone in patients with stage II-IIIB resectable NSCLC.

This is a first-in-human (FIH), multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion Phase 1/2 clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of D3S-001 or combination therapy in subjects with advanced KRAS p.G12C mutant solid tumors. D3S-001 will be taken daily by oral administration in 21-day treatment cycles. Read Less

This study will compare outcomes for M1 iCCA patients treated with and without L-RT by reviewing iCCA patients found to have M1 disease at initial diagnosis at a single institution between 2010 and 2021 who received L-RT. Read Less

This is a global, multicenter, randomized, open-label study, with an adaptive design. The main objective of the study is to measure the efficacy and safety of BT8009 (zelenectide pevedotin) as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (UC). The study includes a dose selection phase followed by an adaptive design continuation. The study is comprised of 2 cohorts. Cohort 1 will include participants who have not received any prior systemic therapy for locally advanced or metastatic UC and are eligible to receive platinum-based chemotherapy, whereas Cohort 2 will include participants who have received ≥ 1 prior systemic therapy for locally advanced or metastatic UC.

This is a single arm phase II study that will evaluate the combination of pembrolizumab, docetaxel, and cisplatin or carboplatin (PDC) as single treatment modality in patients with stage II-IVb (T2-4, any N, M0) squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal cavity/paranasal sinuses (PNS SCC). Read Less

The study is intended to assess the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant combination of IPH5201 and durvalumab in addition to standard chemotherapy and adjuvant combination of IPH5201 and durvalumab in untreated patients with resectable, early-stage (stage II to IIIA) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

This is a phase II randomized study of standard of care (SOC) neo-adjuvant cisplatin chemotherapy (NAC) versus NAC plus durvalumab in patients with either clinical or pathologic intra-pelvic node-positive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. Patients with cTanyN1-3M0 via American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition staging30 will be considered tor enrollment in this trial. We plan to enroll 60 patients. Patients will be randomized 2:1 to the intervention arm with durvalumab plus NAC vs SOC NAC. In patients randomized to receive, durvalumab will be continued as maintenance every 4 weeks until either relapse or 1 year, whichever event occurs first. Tissue collection will occur as a biopsy prior to initiation of neo-adjuvant therapy via both transurethral biopsy of bladder and lymph node biopsy. Tissue will again be collected at the time of radical cystectomy or, in patients who are no longer surgical candidates, in the form of biopsy as standard of care. Blood and urine will be collected at baseline, week 2, week 6, week 16, and at the 6 week-post surgery visit for analysis of correlative studies. Read Less

To find out if adding pembrolizumab to standard of care chemotherapy drugs (cisplatin and gemcitabine) will improve long-term response of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma after surgery, compared to treatment with surgery and standard chemotherapy alone. Read Less

This is a phase II, single-arm, open-label study evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of neoadjuvant sotorasib in combination with cisplatin (or carboplatin) and pemetrexed chemotherapy for patients with surgically resectable stage IIA - IIIB (T3-T4/N2) (based on AJCC 8th edition), non-squamous NSCLC with a KRAS p.G12C mutation. The primary objective of the study is to determine whether neoadjuvant therapy with 4 cycles of at least one dose of sotorasib plus cisplatin (or carboplatin) and pemetrexed can be administered safely and result in improved MPR rate in patients with KRAS p.G12C-mutant non-squamous NSCLC compared with the historical control MPR rate for platinum-based chemotherapy alone.
