Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and therapeutic effects of a combination treatment using BNT113 and pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab alone for patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) that is positive for human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16+) and expresses the PD-L1 protein with a combined positive score of 1 or higher. This Phase II/III trial includes patients whose cancer cannot be treated with local therapies and who have not received prior systemic anticancer therapy for their current disease condition. The trial consists of two parts. Part A is a non-randomized Safety Run-In Phase to confirm the safety and tolerability of BNT113 combined with pembrolizumab at the selected dose. Part B is a randomized phase that compares BNT113 plus pembrolizumab against pembrolizumab alone as first-line treatment. Patients in Part A continue their treatment without randomization. Treatments are given by intravenous injection or infusion, and patients may receive either combination therapy or monotherapy for up to 24 months. There is also an optional pre-screening phase to test tumor samples for HPV16 DNA and PD-L1 expression before entering the main trial. Participants undergo regular assessments including tumor measurements based on RECIST 1.1 criteria confirmed by independent review. Researchers monitor treatment-emergent adverse events for up to 27 months in Part A and evaluate overall survival and progression-free survival for up to 48 months in Part B. Tumor tissue samples are collected before treatment to confirm eligibility. The study involves ongoing safety monitoring and efficacy evaluations throughout the treatment and follow-up periods.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of rilvegostomig compared to pembrolizumab as first-line treatments for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC) whose tumors have high PD-L1 expression. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, and global study focuses on participants with stage IV mNSCLC who do not have certain genetic mutations or rearrangements and are eligible for systemic therapy. Participants receive either rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The study compares these two biological treatments given as monotherapy. Both groups will be monitored over time to assess treatment impact and safety. Throughout the study, participants undergo evaluations including tumor measurements by CT or MRI, performance status assessments, and organ function tests. Researchers will measure overall survival and progression-free survival for up to approximately five years. Tumor samples are collected before treatment for central testing, and participants’ health and treatment responses are closely followed during the trial period.

The study involves treatment administration under controlled conditions with monitoring for efficacy and safety. The goal is to assess the treatments over time with a focus on response rates and overall survival. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including radiologic imaging to measure tumor response, and evaluations of overall survival up to approximately three years. The primary outcomes include objective response rate assessed by blinded independent central review and overall survival. Researchers will monitor patient health, side effects, and treatment effectiveness throughout the study duration.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of combining petosemtamab with pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab alone as a first treatment for people with recurrent or metastatic PD-L1 positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This Phase 3, randomized, open-label study focuses on patients who have not received previous systemic therapy for incurable recurrent or metastatic disease, though prior therapy for locally advanced disease is allowed under certain conditions. The study excludes patients who have been treated with anti PD-(L)1 or anti-EGFR therapies except in specific cases. Participants will receive either the combination of petosemtamab plus pembrolizumab or pembrolizumab alone as their first-line treatment for this condition. The study includes detailed eligibility criteria based on tumor location, PD-L1 expression, health status, and prior treatments. Treatment effects will be observed over time with a focus on overall survival and tumor response rates measured according to standard criteria. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including tumor biopsies, imaging scans to measure disease progression, heart function tests, and evaluations of organ function. Safety and treatment response will be closely monitored up to approximately three years. The study also tracks overall survival and tumor response rate as primary outcomes, ensuring continuous follow-up and support throughout the trial period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of HLX22 combined with trastuzumab and chemotherapy as the first treatment for patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the gastric or gastroesophageal junction. This phase 2, double-blind, randomized, and multiregional study compares this combination against trastuzumab and chemotherapy with or without pembrolizumab. The study aims to measure how well the treatments work in controlling the disease and improving survival for up to five years. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives HLX22 at 15 mg/kg every three weeks along with trastuzumab, chemotherapy (XELOX regimen), and possibly a placebo for pembrolizumab. The other group receives a placebo for HLX22 plus trastuzumab, chemotherapy (XELOX), and possibly pembrolizumab every three weeks. Treatment continues until the disease worsens, unacceptable side effects occur, withdrawal of consent, or other protocol-specified reasons. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including tumor scans reviewed by an independent committee to evaluate progression-free survival and overall survival over up to five years. Other evaluations include safety monitoring and organ function tests. The study tracks how long patients live without disease progression and overall survival, aiming to better understand the benefits and risks of HLX22 combined with current standard treatments.

This trial investigates the safety and effectiveness of rilvegostomig combined with fluoropyrimidine and trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) compared to trastuzumab, chemotherapy, and pembrolizumab in adults with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma whose tumors express PD-L1 with a combined positive score of 1 or higher. Additionally, rilvegostomig combined with trastuzumab and chemotherapy is studied separately to understand each component's contribution. This Phase 2, randomized, open-label, global study is conducted at 200-250 sites in about 25 countries. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three arms: Arm A receives rilvegostomig, fluoropyrimidine, and T-DXd; Arm B receives trastuzumab, chemotherapy, and pembrolizumab; Arm C receives rilvegostomig, trastuzumab, and chemotherapy. Treatments are administered mostly by intravenous infusion every three weeks, with capecitabine given orally twice daily. The study compares these treatment regimens to evaluate their effects on the cancer. Throughout the study, participants undergo assessments including tumor measurements, organ function tests, and heart function evaluation to ensure safety and monitor disease progression. The main outcomes measured are progression-free survival and overall survival for up to approximately six years. Researchers will also monitor adverse events and overall health status during and after treatment.

Researchers are conducting a Phase 3 study to compare two front-line treatments for adults with nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is stage IV or advanced stage IIIB/C. The study focuses on patients whose tumors have a KRAS p.G12C mutation and are negative for PD-L1 expression. The main goal is to evaluate how each treatment affects progression-free survival and overall survival over about 2.5 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either sotorasib combined with platinum doublet chemotherapy or pembrolizumab combined with platinum doublet chemotherapy. Sotorasib is given orally, while pembrolizumab is given intravenously. Both groups will receive the combination therapies as their initial treatment for advanced NSCLC. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to assess treatment effects and safety. Researchers will track how long patients live without the cancer worsening and overall survival over approximately 2.5 years. The study includes evaluations to determine eligibility and ongoing assessments to monitor health and treatment response throughout the trial period.

Researchers are evaluating treatments for participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of camizestrant compared to standard endocrine therapy in patients with early breast cancer that is estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-). These patients have an intermediate or high risk of cancer recurrence and have already completed local treatments such as surgery and possibly chemotherapy, alongside at least 2 years and up to 5 years of standard adjuvant endocrine therapy. The study is a Phase III, open-label trial designed to assess outcomes over a long term. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either camizestrant, an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader, or one of several standard endocrine therapies including tamoxifen, anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane, administered according to local approved guidelines. The treatment duration for both groups is planned to last 60 months. Eligible patients may have previously used CDK4/6 inhibitors, and the study will specifically include those with intermediate or high risk of recurrence as determined by clinical and biological markers. During the study, participants will be monitored for up to 10 years from the last patient's randomization to evaluate invasive breast cancer-free survival. Additional outcomes include invasive disease-free survival, distant relapse-free survival, overall survival, safety, and clinical outcome assessments. The study involves ongoing assessments of health status, treatment effects, and safety to determine the long-term benefits and risks of camizestrant compared to standard therapies.

Researchers are evaluating the drug disitamab vedotin, alone or combined with pembrolizumab, to treat urothelial cancer that expresses HER2. This cancer is locally advanced, cannot be removed by surgery, or has spread to other parts of the body. The study aims to see how well the drug works and how safe it is for participants by monitoring side effects and treatment responses. Participants will receive disitamab vedotin through an intravenous (IV) infusion every two weeks. Pembrolizumab, when given, is administered by IV on the first day of each six-week cycle. The study includes several groups, called cohorts, each with different treatment histories and eligibility criteria. Treatment and evaluation may continue for about two years. During the study, participants will have regular tests including scans to measure tumor response, lab tests, heart function checks, and monitoring for adverse events. Researchers will also track drug levels in the blood and any changes in heart function. The study will assess confirmed tumor responses and safety outcomes over approximately two years, with close monitoring to understand how participants respond to the treatments and any side effects experienced.
