Malignant Neoplasm

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat children with relapsed or refractory solid tumors: * Relapsed means the cancer came back after treatment * Refractory means the cancer did not respond (get smaller or go away) to treatment * Solid tumors are cancers mostly in body organs and tissues, not in the blood or other body liquids The study treatment I-DXd (also known as MK-2400 or ifinatamab deruxtecan) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). An ADC attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. The goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety of I-DXd and if children younger than 12 years old tolerate it * How many children who receive I-DXd have the cancer get smaller or go away

This phase II trial studies how well donor cytotoxic T lymphocytes work in treating patients with malignancies with BK and/or JC virus. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes are made from donated blood cells that are grown in the laboratory and are designed to kill viruses that can cause infections in transplant patients and may be an effective treatment in patients with malignancies with BK and/or JC virus.

This trial establishes patient-derived cancer xenografts in addressing cancer health and treatment disparities that disproportionately affect racial/ethnic minorities. Understanding the genetic and response differences among racial/ethnic minorities may help researchers enhance the precision of therapeutic treatments.

This clinical trial is looking at two drugs called dabrafenib and trametinib. Dabrafenib and trametinib are approved as standard of care treatment for adult patients with melanoma (a type of skin cancer) or lung cancer and in children with glioma (a type of brain tumour). This means they have gone through clinical trials and been approved by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the UK. Dabrafenib and trametinib work in patients with a particular mutation in their cancer known as BRAF V600. Investigators now wish to find out if they will be useful in treating patients with other cancer types which have the same mutation. If the results are positive, the study team will work with the NHS and the Cancer Drugs Fund to see if these drugs can be routinely accessed for patients in the future. This trial is part of a trial programme called DETERMINE. The programme will also look at other anti-cancer drugs in the same way, through matching the drug to rare cancer types or ones with specific mutations.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat adolescents with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic solid tumors. Participants were enrolled into pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL), wild type gastrointestinal stromal tumor (wtGIST), and Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease-associated localized tumors cohorts: * PPGL are rare cancers that start in cells that make hormones in the adrenal glands * wtGIST is a less common type of cancer that starts in the digestive tract. Wild type means it does not have certain gene mutations (changes) * VHL disease-associated localized tumors are rare tumors caused by a certain gene mutation that may be passed down from parents to children * Locally advanced means the cancer has spread into nearby tissue * Unresectable means the cancer cannot be removed by surgery * Metastatic means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body The goal of the study is to learn about the safety of belzutifan and if people tolerate it.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat certain advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The goal of this study is to learn about the safety of MK-4716 and if people tolerate it when taken alone or with other treatments.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat certain types of advanced and/or metastatic solid tumors. The main goal of this study is to learn about the safety of different doses of MK-4884 and if participants tolerate them.

Researchers want to learn if using a study medicine called MK-1084 can help treat Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). MK-1084 is a type of treatment called targeted therapy for the Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) G12C gene change. The goal of this study is to learn about the safety of MK-1084 and to learn how many people have the cancer get smaller or go away during the study treatment.

This trial studies how well a new assessment system (MDASI or other MD Anderson-developed PRO instrument) works in measuring symptoms and the impact on quality of life in cancer patients. Development of a new assessment system may provide more information about the common symptoms that may occur in patients due to cancer and its treatment and how the symptoms impact quality of life.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with certain advanced solid tumors. Advanced means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body and cannot be removed with surgery. Solid tumors are cancers mostly in body organs and tissues, not in the blood or other body liquids. The main goal of this study is to learn about the safety of MK-3120 and if people tolerate it.

This expanded access protocol studies bone marrow transplantation using CD34-selected stem cells from related or unrelated donors in treating participants with cancer or other disorders. Stem cells collected from the donor will be processed using a new device called CliniMACS CD34 Reagent System which marks the blood cells collected from the donor with a special protein called "antibody" that tags only the donor stem cells, sorting out other cells of the blood and immune system. This is done to remove, at least partially, some of the T cells. T cells are the cells in the blood that work as scavengers of the immune system deciding what belongs and what does not. These cells can sometimes cause rejection of the donor graft or a condition called graft-versus host disease (GVHD), where the donor cells can attack the body of the recipient. A bone marrow transplantation using CD34-selected stem cells may reduce the risk of these unwanted side effects of transplant as much as possible.

Researchers want to learn if MK-5684 (the study medicine) can treat breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and endometrial cancer. MK-5684, the study medicine, is designed to treat cancer by blocking the body from making steroid hormones. Researchers will compare MK-5684 to the standard treatments for each cancer type in this study. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive MK-5684 live longer without the cancer growing or spreading compared to people who receive a standard treatment.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat children with hepatoblastoma or rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) that has relapsed or is refractory: * Hepatoblastoma is a common liver cancer in babies and very young children * RMS is a cancer that starts in muscle cells, often in a child's head and neck, bladder, arms, or legs * Relapsed means the cancer came back after treatment * Refractory means the cancer did not respond (get smaller or go away) to treatment The study treatment HER3-DXd (also known as MK-1022 or patritumab deruxtecan) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). An ADC attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. The goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety of HER3-DXd in children and if they tolerate it * What happens to HER3-DXd in children's bodies over time * If children who receive HER3-DXd have the cancer get smaller or go away

The main goal of this phase of the study is to determine if objectively assessed Physical Activity (PA) levels in advanced-cancer patients are associated with health care provider (HCP)-assessed ECOG performance status and overall survival. The purpose is to advance the evidence-base for incorporating objective assessment of Physical Activity (PA) in the context of performance status assessment in advanced cancer patients.

This study is a single-center, open-label first-in-human clinical study. Patients with clinically suspected or confirmed malignant solid tumors will undergo \[68Ga\]Ga-FAP PET imaging or \[177Lu\]Lu-FAP SPECT imaging as well as \[18F\]FDG PET imaging to determine the presence or absence of lesions, and to assess lesion location, characteristics, and metastasis. Histopathological diagnosis or follow-up results will serve as the reference standard. The diagnostic efficacy of \[68Ga\]Ga-FAP PET imaging or \[177Lu\]Lu-FAP SPECT imaging for malignant tumors will be evaluated. Additionally, the study will analyze the biodistribution and dosimetry of \[177Lu\]Lu-FAP following a single administration, explore the correlation between tumor uptake values on imaging and immunohistochemical FAP expression levels, and evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single low-dose intravenous injection of \[68Ga\]Ga-FAP or \[177Lu\]Lu-FAP for diagnostic imaging.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with solid tumors, lymphomas (blood cancers), and a certain type of skin cancer. The goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety of pembrolizumab (the study medicine) and if people tolerate it * What happens to different doses of pembrolizumab in a person's body over time * How the cancer responds (gets smaller or goes away) to treatment

This trial studies the genetic and behavioral factors that may contribute to the development of specific cancers and how these factors may affect the outcome of the disease in patients with a history of cancer and their relatives.

The goal of this research study is to understand the effect of inhalation approaches in reducing nausea in cancer patients.

This early phase I trial studies how well a behavioral weight loss intervention consisting of a smartphone application and coaching works for the promotion of weight loss in adolescents and young adults after a stem cell transplant. This study may help researchers learn more about how adolescents and young adults can lose weight and develop healthy eating habits.

This study gathers health information for the Project: Every Child for younger patients with cancer. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.

NBM-BMX is an orally available new chemical entity to inhibit histone deacetylases 8 (HDAC8) activity specifically, being developed as a potential anti-cancer therapeutic by NatureWise. This study aims to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of NBM-BMX as monotherapy in subjects with advanced solid tumors or combination with the standard of care treatment in subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastoma.

This research trial collects biological samples and clinical information to create a repository of data from patients with cancer or a predisposition for cancer. Combining genetic information from biological samples and clinical data may lead to more knowledge about why certain cancers respond to treatment and help create more personalized medicine.

The study is a first-in-human (FIH), open-label, multi-center phase 1/2 study of TSN1611 in subjects with KRAS G12D mutant advanced solid tumors. This study will consist of a phase 1 dose escalation part and phase 2 dose expansion part. This study will evaluate the efficacy of TSN1611 at RP2D(s) through ORR using RECIST version 1.1, and determine and confirm the MTD/RP2D for TSN1611 in combination with cetuximab, in combination with cetuximab and mFOLFOX6, in combination with gemcitabine and albumin-bound paclitaxel in subjects with selected solid tumors.

In this research study we want to learn more about the use of indocyanine green (ICG) during bone or soft tissue mass resections. Indocyanine green (ICG) is a type of dye that is used in medical diagnostics. We want to determine if ICG-guided tumor resection is more effective in obtaining negative margins. Lastly, we want to assess traditional oncologic outcomes of local recurrence, time to metastatic disease, and overall and disease specific survival.

This research trial studies the use of targeted genomic analysis of blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer. Genomic sequencing is a laboratory method that is used to determine the entire genetic makeup of a specific organism or cell type. Genomic sequencing can be used to find changes in areas of the genome that may be important in the development of cancer. It may also help doctors improve ways to diagnose and treat patients with rare cancers with poor prognosis or lack of effective therapy.
