A Study Testing the Combination of Dasatinib or Imatinib to Chemotherapy Treatment With Blinatumomab for Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Philadelphia Chromosome Positive (Ph+) or ABL-Class Philadelphia Chromosome-Like (Ph-Like) B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL)
This pilot trial assesses the effect of the combination of blinatumomab with dasatinib or imatinib and standard chemotherapy for treating patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) or ABL-class Philadelphia chromosome-like (Ph-like) B-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Blinatumomab is a bispecific antibody that binds to two different proteins-one on the surface of cancer cells and one on the surface of cells in the immune system. An antibody is a protein made by the immune system to help fight infections and other harmful processes/cells/molecules. Blinatumomab may bind to the cancer cell and a T cell (which plays a key role in the immune system's fighting response) at the same time. Blinatumomab may strengthen the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells by activating the body's own immune cells to destroy the tumor. Dasatinib and imatinib are in a class of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. They work by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply, which may help keep cancer cells from growing. Giving blinatumomab and dasatinib or imatinib in combination with standard chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with Ph+ or Ph-like ABL-class B-ALL than dasatinib or imatinib with chemotherapy.
A Phase II Platform Study to Evaluate Treatment With Cemiplimab Monotherapy or Cemiplimab Plus Fianlimab or Other Novel Combinations in Patients With Colorectal Cancer With Minimal Residual Disease Following Definitive Surgery and Chemotherapy (EMPIRE)
The NSABP FC-13 study is being done to determine if using immunotherapies alone or in combination with other drugs will delay or prevent colorectal cancer from coming back in patients with colorectal cancer who are ctDNA-positive after their treatment. Immunotherapeutic drugs (immunotherapies) act on different proteins on the surface of cells of the immune system and trigger the immune system to destroy cancer cells. The drugs being studied in NSABP FC-13 are cemiplimab, fianlimab, and REGN7075.
Inclisiran Versus Placebo for the Prevention of Major Adverse Cardiovascular and Limb Events in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention or Peripheral Endovascular Intervention
V-INTERVENTION will evaluate the effectiveness of inclisiran in preventing major cardiovascular and limb events in patients receiving percutaneous coronary or peripheral arterial revascularization. Inclisiran is a subcutaneous, twice-yearly injection that is FDA-approved as an adjunct with statin therapy and on the market to lower LDL-C in high-risk populations.
Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of dNerva Lung Denervation System in Patients With COPD
The dNerva Lung Denervation System is one-time treatment intended to improve breathing in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients on standard medical care. The purpose of this study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of the Nuvaira Lung Denervation System in the treatment of COPD.
Multicenter Study of Lumateperone for the Treatment of Irritability Associated With Autism Spectrum Disorder in Pediatric Patients
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in pediatric patients aged 5 to 17 years with a primary diagnosis of irritability associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition Text Revision (DSM-5-TR) and confirmed by the Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL).
Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Mediated Fusion (PEG Fusion)
The overall objective of this study is to determine the safety of PEG fusion when used with primary repair or reconstruction in patients with an acute upper extremity peripheral nerve injury. PEG is safe and effective for extending the half-life of circulating pharmaceutical products, when used in conjunction with a topical hemostatic agent in surgical wounds, and when used as a colon cleanser for endoscopic surgical procedures. However, PEG fusion has not been rigorously tested as a safe reagent to promote nerve regeneration in humans. Therefore, the goal of this Phase 2a clinical trial is to establish safety data and to examine the effect of PEG fusion on clinical outcomes including recovery of sensory and motor function. Results will be externally validated using data collected in the DoD funded prospective NERVE study and will provide preliminary evidence to power a larger phase II efficacy trial.
Zanubrutinib in Patients With DLBCL and MYD88 or NOTCH1 Mutation or CD5+
This study is a single-arm, open label, non-randomized, phase 2 trial of zanubrutinib in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who have an MYD88 L265P mutation, a CD79B mutation, a NOTCH1 truncation, or who are CD5+ by immunohistochemistry (IHC).
An Open Label Extension (OLE) Study (Following Completion of CTQJ230A12301) to Evaluate Long-term Safety and Tolerability of Pelacarsen (TQJ230)
This open-label extension study will provide post-trial access to pelacarsen (TQJ230) to participants who have successfully completed the double-blind parent study (CTQJ230A12301).
BEATRIX: A Study to Learn About a Group B Streptococcus Vaccine in Healthy Pregnant Women and Their Babies
BEATRIX (group B strEptococcus mATeRnal and Infant VaX study) The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and how the group B streptococcus (GBS) vaccine works in pregnant women and their babies. This study is seeking healthy pregnant participants: * aged 49 or younger who can join. * between 24 and 36 weeks of gestation ("Gestational age" is a medical term used to describe how far along your pregnancy is) * had a fetal ultrasound examination performed with no major fetal abnormalities observed * documented negative for HIV, syphilis and Hepatitis B All participants in this study will receive only 1 shot in an arm. This could either be a group B streptococcus 6-valent polysaccharide conjugate vaccine (GBS6) or placebo. Placebo is an inactive substance used in the study for comparison purposes; in this study, the placebo injection will be saline (saltwater). The pregnant participants may take part in this study for a maximum of 14 months (6 months after delivery) , and their babies for about 12 months after they are born. The pregnant participants will need to visit the research site at least 3 to 4 times with some visits permitted to occur over the telephone. A subset of infants will be asked to take part in the study for up to 19 months. The subset will receive diphtheria toxoid-containing vaccine and/or pneumococcal vaccine following each country's standard immunization plan and have blood drawn 1 month after completion of the primary and/or toddler (booster) doses.
A Study to Compare Standard Therapy to Treat Hodgkin Lymphoma to the Use of Two Drugs, Brentuximab Vedotin and Nivolumab
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding immunotherapy (brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab) to standard treatment (chemotherapy with or without radiation) to the standard treatment alone in improving survival in patients with stage I and II classical Hodgkin lymphoma. Brentuximab vedotin is in a class of medications called antibody-drug conjugates. It is made of a monoclonal antibody called brentuximab that is linked to a cytotoxic agent called vedotin. Brentuximab attaches to CD30 positive lymphoma cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin sulfate, vinblastine sulfate, dacarbazine, and procarbazine hydrochloride work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. It may also lower the body's immune response. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. Vincristine is in a class of medications called vinca alkaloids. It works by stopping cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Prednisone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Adding immunotherapy to the standard treatment of chemotherapy with or without radiation may increase survival and/or fewer short-term or long-term side effects in patients with classical Hodgkin lymphoma compared to the standard treatment alone.
