Feb 3rd, 2023 - The vaccine will be administered orally (by mouth) as a solution mixed with sodium bicarbonate. Approximately 10 minutes prior to receiving the vaccine, participants will take sodium bicarbonate pills to assist with the absorption of the vaccine. Participants may be pre-treated with acetaminophen (Tylenol) and diphenhydramine (Benadryl). Acetaminophen (Tylenol) and diphenhydramine (Benadryl) ar...

Feb 3rd, 2023 - PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare the efficacy of single-agent olaparib and the combination of olaparib and cediranib (and potentially other combination arms that may be added by subsequent amendment) versus single agent cediranib as measured by progression free survival (PFS), in patients with recurrent, persistent or metastatic endometrial cancer. II. To compare the efficacy of the combinatio...

Feb 3rd, 2023 - PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v)1.1 overall response rate (ORR) in subsets of patients with advanced rare cancers treated with ipilimumab plus nivolumab combination immunotherapy. II. To evaluate the overall response rate (ORR) in patients with gestational trophoblastic tumors treated with ipilimumab plus nivolumab combinat...

Feb 3rd, 2023 - PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To compare the overall survival (OS) in patients with metastatic renal cell cancer (RCC) treated with ipilimumab-nivolumab followed by either nivolumab versus cabozantinib-nivolumab. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine progression free survival (PFS) of patients treated with nivolumab versus nivolumab-cabozantinib. II. To evaluate the 12-month complete response rate in p...

Feb 3rd, 2023 - XCELSIOR is patient-centric study for the registration of cancer patients, operations of a virtual tumor board, insight capture in clinical decision making, and collection of longitudinal, observational data in a cancer registry. Patient intake into XCELSIOR will occur through the Cancer Commons Web portal. This includes consent to participate in the data registry, including the collection and ...

Feb 3rd, 2023 - The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of rozanolixizumab as measured by seizure freedom, change in cognitive function, use of rescue medication, onset of seizure freedom and to assess safety and tolerability.

Feb 3rd, 2023 - There are 5 parts to this study for which the primary objectives are to evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of navitoclax when administered alone (Part 1) or when administered in combination with ruxolitinib (Part 2). In Part 2, participants must have been receiving a stable dose of ruxolitinib therapy for at least 12 weeks prior to study enrollment. In Part 3, all eligible...

Feb 3rd, 2023 - Background: NF1 is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by distinct features including the development of benign plexiform neurofibromas (PN) and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) tumors of the nervous system. Development of MPNST typically results from malignant transformation in a preexisting PN. Associated symptoms may overlap and be difficult to distinguish fr...
