Researchers are studying treatments for locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer mCRC that cannot be removed by surgery and has a specific KRAS G12C gene mutation. This trial aims to evaluate if adding the targeted therapies calderasib and cetuximab to the standard chemotherapy regimen mFOLFOX6 can provide better outcomes compared to mFOLFOX6 with or without bevacizumab. The study focuses on the safety and tolerability of these combinations and whether they can help people live longer without their cancer growing or spreading. Participants will be assigned to one of two groups. One group will receive calderasib orally, cetuximab every two weeks, and mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy including oxaliplatin, leucovorin or levofolinate calcium, and 5-fluorouracil every two weeks. The other group will receive mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab every two weeks, based on the investigators decision. Treatments will continue until certain stopping criteria are met. During the study, participants will be monitored for side effects and treatment tolerance, with regular assessments of cancer progression. Researchers will measure outcomes such as dose-limiting toxicities, adverse events, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Quality of life will also be evaluated through questionnaires. The study may last up to several years, with monitoring continuing for safety and effectiveness throughout the treatment period and follow-up.

This trial evaluates the effectiveness of adjuvant cemiplimab immunotherapy in adults with surgically removed stage II-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC who have not previously received adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy. The study aims to compare disease-free survival between patients treated with cemiplimab and those under observation without additional treatment, focusing on patients with tumors showing PD-L1 expression of 1% or higher. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either cemiplimab or observation. Those in the cemiplimab group receive 350 mg intravenously every 3 weeks for 4 cycles, followed by 700 mg every 6 weeks for up to 6 cycles or until disease relapse or unacceptable side effects occur. The observation group does not receive adjuvant treatment. Treatment continues until relapse, toxicity, or completion of planned cycles. During the trial, participants undergo regular assessments including imaging and laboratory tests to monitor disease status and side effects. The main outcome measured is disease-free survival, tracked for approximately 59 months from randomization. Secondary outcomes include overall survival and the nature and severity of adverse events. Participants are monitored for safety and treatment response throughout the study period, which is expected to conclude in March 2029.

Researchers are investigating metastatic colorectal cancer mCRC patients who have a specific genetic change called the BRAFV600E mutation. This rare subtype of mCRC often shows poor response to current treatments and has a generally poor outlook. The study aims to collect detailed clinical data and biological samples to better understand this condition, including how patients respond to treatments and what factors predict their survival. It focuses on real-world treatment outcomes and biological markers that might influence therapy choices and resistance. Participants will provide blood samples at multiple times during their treatment, including before and during the first three treatment cycles, at 3 and 6 months after starting each treatment line, and when disease progression occurs following certain therapies. The study gathers up to 390 mL of blood per participant over time to analyze circulating tumor DNA and immune environment factors. This observational approach will help researchers identify biomarkers related to treatment response and disease progression. During the study, participants clinical progress and survival will be tracked for up to five years. Researchers will review overall survival from diagnosis to death and assess how prognostic markers relate to progression-free survival and response to treatments. The study involves collecting tumor tissue samples and blood tests, along with routine follow-up visits. All data collected will contribute to understanding BRAFV600E mCRC and improving future treatment strategies.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of rilvegostomig compared to pembrolizumab monotherapy as the first-line treatment for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer mNSCLC whose tumors express high levels of PD-L1. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, multicenter global study focuses on patients with mNSCLC without certain genetic mutations who are suitable for this treatment approach. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The study compares these two drugs over repeated treatment cycles as first-line therapy. Both treatments are biological agents given by infusion, and the study is designed to monitor their effects over up to approximately five years. During the trial, participants will undergo regular assessments including physical exams, imaging scans such as CT or MRI to measure tumor lesions, and laboratory tests to evaluate organ function. Researchers will closely monitor overall survival, progression-free survival, treatment response, duration of response, and patient-reported outcomes on physical functioning and quality of life. Safety and immunogenicity of rilvegostomig will also be evaluated. Participants are followed and assessed for up to five years to gather comprehensive data on treatment effects and long-term outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of rilvegostomig compared to pembrolizumab, both combined with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, as a first-line treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC whose tumors express PD-L1 at levels of 1% or higher. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, global study aims to compare these treatments to improve outcomes for this patient group. Participants will receive either rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab, each given intravenously on Day 1 of every 21-day cycle, combined with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy either carboplatin or cisplatin also given on Day 1 of each cycle for up to four cycles. After chemotherapy cycles, patients continue with rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab monotherapy combined with pemetrexed maintenance. The study follows patients for up to approximately six years to monitor treatment effects and safety. During the study, participants undergo assessments including imaging scans to measure tumor size, blood tests to evaluate organ function, and questionnaires about symptoms and quality of life. Researchers monitor overall survival and progression-free survival as primary outcomes, alongside other measures such as response duration and physical functioning. Safety is closely observed throughout, with study visits scheduled regularly during treatment and follow-up periods, lasting up to six years in total.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of rilvegostomig combined with platinum-based chemotherapy compared to pembrolizumab combined with platinum-based chemotherapy as a first treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer mNSCLC whose tumors express programmed death-ligand 1 PD-L1. This Phase III global study focuses on patients with PD-L1 tumor cell expression of 1% or higher and aims to determine which treatment provides better overall and progression-free survival. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two study groups one group will receive rilvegostomig plus carboplatin and either paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy, while the other group will receive pembrolizumab plus the same chemotherapy options. Rilvegostomig and pembrolizumab are both given intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle, with chemotherapy given up to 4 cycles. Nab-paclitaxel may be administered on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle. Treatment continues with rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab until disease progression or other criteria are met. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including imaging scans to measure tumor response, laboratory tests to monitor organ function, and patient questionnaires about physical function and quality of life. Researchers will track overall survival, progression-free survival, response rates, and duration of response for up to approximately 6 years. Safety and immune response to rilvegostomig will also be evaluated. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the treatment and follow-up periods.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of volrustomig compared to observation in participants with unresected locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma LA-HNSCC who have not progressed after receiving definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy cCRT. This phase III, randomized, open-label global study aims to assess whether volrustomig can improve outcomes in this patient population. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups those who receive volrustomig as sequential therapy, and those who undergo observation without additional treatment. The study compares these two approaches following prior curative concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The trial includes long-term follow-up to monitor patient outcomes. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for progression-free survival, overall survival, physical functioning, and quality of life. Researchers will also monitor for the presence of anti-drug antibodies and adverse events related to volrustomig. Follow-up evaluations may continue for up to approximately eight years to fully understand the treatment impact and safety profile.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and preliminary effectiveness of amivantamab alone and combined with other treatments in participants with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma HNSCC and in those with locally advanced HNSCC who can undergo surgery. The study also seeks to establish the recommended Phase 2 combination dose of amivantamab when given with paclitaxel. Additionally, the safety and effectiveness of amivantamab combined with pembrolizumab will be assessed before and after surgery in participants with resectable locally advanced HNSCC. Participants will receive subcutaneous injections of amivantamab at doses adjusted by body weight on specific schedules, either alone or combined with intravenous pembrolizumab, paclitaxel, or carboplatin, depending on their assigned cohort. Dose confirmation and expansion cohorts will help determine the appropriate dosing. For those in the perioperative setting, amivantamab and pembrolizumab will be given in both neoadjuvant before surgery and adjuvant after surgery phases with specific dosing schedules extending up to 15 cycles. Participants will be assessed for tumor response, treatment-related toxicities, and survival outcomes over a period extending up to about two years. Researchers will monitor treatment-emergent adverse events, dosing tolerability, and measure outcomes such as objective response rate, duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival, and major pathologic response. Laboratory tests, imaging, and clinical evaluations will be performed to evaluate safety and efficacy throughout the study duration.

Researchers are evaluating treatments for participants with KRASNRAS and BRAF wild-type recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic colorectal cancer who have previously received chemotherapy. The study compares how long participants remain free of disease progression and the overall survival time when treated with amivantamab plus chemotherapy versus cetuximab or bevacizumab plus chemotherapy. This Phase 3 trial focuses on patients who have already undergone prior chemotherapy for their cancer. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives amivantamab combined with the chemotherapy regimen FOLFIRI, which includes 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium or levoleucovorin, and irinotecan. The other group receives either cetuximab or bevacizumab combined with the same chemotherapy regimen FOLFIRI. Treatments are given in 28-day cycles and continue until the cancer progresses or other criteria require stopping treatment. During the study, participants undergo regular assessments to monitor disease status, including imaging scans reviewed by independent experts. Researchers measure progression-free survival and overall survival over periods up to several years. Additional outcomes include response rates, duration of response, quality of life assessments, and side effects. Safety and laboratory evaluations are conducted throughout the study, which spans up to four years and four months in total duration.
