Researchers are evaluating the addition of Saruparib AZD5305 to standard radiation therapy RT and androgen deprivation therapy ADT for men with high-risk or very high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer who have a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. The study aims to determine if Saruparib improves metastases-free survival compared to placebo when added to these treatments. This phase 3 trial involves approximately 700 adult male participants. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either Saruparib or a matching placebo alongside physicians choice of ADT, with or without abiraterone and prednisoneprednisolone, depending on their cohort. Cohort A includes those receiving RT and continuous ADT, while Cohort B includes participants receiving RT, ADT, and abiraterone. Saruparib and placebo are administered orally. Treatment continues with close monitoring throughout the study. Participants will undergo scans including CT or MRI, bone scans, and PSMA-PET after their planned RT to confirm eligibility and monitor disease status. They will be followed for survival and disease progression for up to approximately 11 years. Researchers will assess metastasis-free survival, overall survival, prostate cancer-specific survival, biochemical recurrence, physical function, and urinary symptoms. Safety and drug levels will also be monitored. An independent committee will review safety and efficacy regularly throughout the trial.

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of AZD5335 compared to standard treatments in women with high-grade, platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. The study focuses on whether AZD5335 improves progression-free survival PFS among participants with either high or low levels of folate receptor alpha FR. Approximately 1100 adult women will be enrolled and divided into two groups based on their FR levels. Participants will be randomized within each group to receive either AZD5335 or the relevant standard treatment. Those with high FR levels will receive AZD5335 or mirvetuximab soravtansine, while those with low FR levels will receive AZD5335 or a chemotherapy agent chosen by the investigator, including paclitaxel, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, or topotecan. Treatments are given intravenously, and participants will continue treatment until disease progression or other reasons for stopping. During the study, participants will undergo regular tumor assessments to monitor disease status. Researchers will follow all participants over time to evaluate overall survival. Safety and efficacy data will be reviewed periodically by an independent committee. The primary outcome is progression-free survival, measured for up to about five years. The study completion is expected by late 2029.

Researchers are evaluating the best dose of zongertinib, a drug that inhibits HER2, for adults aged 18 years and older with various types of HER2-positive cancers that have spread and cannot be removed by surgery. This study focuses on people whose tumors show HER2 abnormalities and who have not had success with previous treatments. The main goal is to find a dose of zongertinib that patients can tolerate well when combined with other treatments, and to see if zongertinib alone or with these combinations can shrink tumors. Participants receive zongertinib alone or together with other drugs such as trastuzumab deruxtecan, trastuzumab emtansine, trastuzumab with capecitabine, zanidatamab, or mFOLFOX6 with or without trastuzumab. The study has two parts Part 1 involves increasing doses of zongertinib in different groups to find the best tolerated dose. Part 2 randomly assigns participants to different dose groups of zongertinib. Treatment is given in cycles during the study. Throughout the study, participants visit the study site regularly. Doctors monitor tumor size with imaging scans like CT or MRI and check participants health for any side effects. The main measures include identifying dose-limiting toxicities within 21 days and the tumors response over up to 50 months. Safety, drug levels in the body, disease control, progression-free survival, and patient-reported outcomes are also tracked. The study runs until January 2029.

Researchers are evaluating standard neoadjuvant treatment options for patients aged 70 years or older with high-risk stage II and stage III rectal cancer in a multicentre, open-label, randomized clinical trial called SHAPERS. The study compares conventional neoadjuvant therapy with total neoadjuvant therapy TNT to understand their safety and effectiveness for this older patient group. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. The conventional treatment group receives either short course radiotherapy followed by surgery or watch & wait, with optional adjuvant chemotherapy, or long course chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery or watch & wait, also with optional adjuvant chemotherapy. The TNT group receives one of several treatment regimens decided by the investigator before randomization, including combinations of short course radiotherapy, oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy lasting up to 18 weeks, and chemoradiotherapy, followed by surgery or watch & wait. During the study, participants undergo treatments as assigned and are monitored for outcomes including overall survival, progression-free survival, peripheral sensory neuropathy, and severe toxicities over 3 years after randomization. Researchers will gather information about treatment effects, side effects, and patient survival to compare the two approaches. The study includes follow-up assessments to track these outcomes and participant safety throughout the trial duration.
