Researchers are evaluating the combination of CGT9486 and sunitinib compared to sunitinib alone in patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors GIST. This Phase 3, open-label international trial involves multiple parts, including dose confirmation, drug interaction assessments, and efficacy comparisons. The study also includes substudies focusing on drug-drug interaction potential and first-line treatment in patients with specific genetic mutations KIT exon 9. Approximately 482 patients will participate across these parts.

Researchers are investigating new treatment options for meningiomas that continue to grow despite local therapies like surgery or radiotherapy. This trial focuses on evaluating a precision medicine approach that combines PET-based imaging to select patients with tumors expressing somatostatin receptors and a targeted radioligand therapy called 177Lu-DOTATATE. This is the first randomized clinical trial studying this therapy in patients with meningiomas that have not responded to other treatments. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives 177Lu-DOTATATE through intravenous infusions every four weeks for a total of four cycles. The other group receives local standard care, which may include treatments like hydroxyurea, bevacizumab, sunitinib, octreotide, everolimus, or observation with supportive care, based on the investigators choice. This study is designed to compare the effects of 177Lu-DOTATATE against various standard treatments in this patient population. During the study, participants will undergo regular MRI scans to measure tumor size and progression. Researchers will also assess overall survival, neurological function, quality of life, and treatment side effects over a period extending up to two years after enrollment. Monitoring includes imaging, laboratory tests, and health questionnaires to evaluate how the disease and treatments affect participants over time.

Researchers are investigating if intismeran autogene combined with pembrolizumab can prevent advanced melanoma from growing or spreading. Advanced melanoma is skin cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and cannot be removed with surgery. The study aims to see if people receiving intismeran autogene with pembrolizumab live longer without their cancer worsening than those receiving placebo with pembrolizumab. This is a phase 2 clinical trial evaluating these treatments in people with first-line advanced melanoma. Participants will receive either intismeran autogene or placebo via intramuscular injection every 3 weeks for up to 9 doses about 27 weeks. All participants will also receive pembrolizumab by intravenous infusion every 6 weeks for up to 17 doses, totaling around 2 years of treatment or until their disease progresses or they stop the treatment. The study compares the experimental combination to a placebo plus pembrolizumab to better understand the effects of intismeran autogene. During the study, participants will have regular assessments to measure how long they live without the cancer growing or spreading, as well as overall response and survival up to 6 years. Researchers will monitor side effects and reasons for stopping therapy for up to 2 years. Participants will undergo scans and tumor tissue analysis for biomarker studies. The trial includes a randomized design with triple masking and aims to enroll adults aged 18 and older with advanced melanoma.

Researchers are evaluating MK-3120, a study medicine, for its safety and tolerability in people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer HR NMIBC. This type of cancer affects the tissue lining the inside of the bladder without spreading to the muscle or beyond. Standard treatment involves removing the tumor through a procedure called transurethral resection of the bladder tumor TURBT, and this study aims to see how MK-3120 works after TURBT. Participants in this study will receive MK-3120 through intravesical administration. The treatment is given once weekly for the first 6 weeks, followed by once monthly for 9 months. The study includes people who are either new to Bacillus Calmette-Gurin BCG therapy or have been exposed to BCG under specific conditions. The dosing and schedule are designed to assess safety and participant tolerance over an extended period. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for dose-limiting toxicities, adverse events, and treatment discontinuations due to side effects. Researchers will also evaluate the complete response rate within approximately 3 months. The overall safety assessment will continue for up to 24 months, while treatment discontinuations due to adverse events will be tracked for about 12 months. This extended monitoring helps ensure thorough evaluation of MK-3120s effects.

Researchers are investigating new treatment options for breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive HR and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative HER2-, specifically for cases that are unresectable locally advanced or metastatic. This type of breast cancer involves cancer cells that depend on hormones like estrogen or progesterone and have low HER2 protein levels. The study focuses on comparing the effects of patritumab deruxtecan against chemotherapy or trastuzumab deruxtecan in patients whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatments. Participants receive either patritumab deruxtecan through intravenous infusions every three weeks for about 13 months or a treatment chosen by their physician, which may include various chemotherapy drugs or trastuzumab deruxtecan, administered according to specific schedules for up to 13 months. The study is randomized and open-label, meaning participants are randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups, and both the patients and researchers know which treatment is given. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular assessments to monitor cancer progression and overall survival for up to approximately 85 months. Researchers evaluate tumor response, duration of response, and changes in quality of life using standardized questionnaires. Safety is carefully monitored by recording adverse events and treatment discontinuations. The goal is to understand if patritumab deruxtecan can improve outcomes compared to current treatment options.

Researchers are studying Sacituzumab Tirumotecan to understand its safety and tolerability when given directly into the bladder for people with intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer NMIBC. The study aims to find the highest dose that participants can take without serious problems and to select a dose for future research to evaluate how well the drug works. Participants receive Sacituzumab Tirumotecan administered intravesically once a week for 6 weeks. In addition to the study drug, they may use rescue medications and supportive care measures to manage side effects as needed. Rescue medications include antihistamines, steroids, antiemetics, antifungals, and pain relief agents. Supportive care may include treatments like artificial tear drops for eye-related side effects. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for any dose-limiting toxicities, adverse events, and treatment discontinuations over approximately 6 to 10 weeks. Blood samples will be taken to measure drug levels in the body. The research team will also assess treatment response up to 6 months and how long any complete response lasts over 24 months. Overall participation lasts until the primary study completion date in March 2029.

Researchers are evaluating TD001, an antibody-drug conjugate targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen PSMA, in men with metastatic PSMA-expressing castration-resistant prostate cancer CRPC. This first-in-human, open-label, multicenter Phase 12 trial aims to assess the safety, tolerability, drug levels, and preliminary antitumor activity of TD001 to support dose optimization for further study. Participants receive TD001 through intravenous infusion at escalating doses to find the recommended Phase 2 doses RP2Ds. Multiple dosing schedules may be tested during the dose escalation part, followed by an expansion phase where groups receive TD001 at the RP2Ds until disease progression or other reasons to stop treatment. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for safety and tolerability, including adverse events and laboratory tests, over treatment and follow-up periods ranging from approximately 8 to 21 months. Researchers will measure pharmacokinetics, response rates, progression-free survival, overall survival, and immunogenicity. The total estimated follow-up includes up to 21 months to capture treatment effects and long-term safety.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and therapeutic effects of BNT113 combined with pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab alone as a first-line treatment for patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma HNSCC positive for human papilloma virus 16 HPV16 and expressing the protein PD-L1 with a combined positive score of 1 or higher. This is an open-label, multi-site, Phase IIIII clinical trial consisting of two parts an initial safety run-in phase and a randomized phase. In the safety run-in phase Part A, patients receive BNT113 in combination with pembrolizumab to confirm safety and tolerability at selected dose levels. The randomized phase Part B compares BNT113 combined with pembrolizumab against pembrolizumab monotherapy. Treatments are given by intravenous injection or infusion and continue for up to 24 months. An optional pre-screening phase allows tumor samples to be tested for HPV16 DNA and PD-L1 expression before the main trial screening. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study. Assessments include safety evaluations, tumor response, and survival outcomes such as overall survival and progression-free survival. Tumor tissue samples must be provided for testing. Researchers will measure treatment-emergent adverse events, response rates, duration of response, and disease control. The study may last up to 48 months, with ongoing safety and efficacy monitoring during and after treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the experimental antibody COM701 to see if it can delay the progression of relapsed platinum sensitive ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. The trial aims to find out if COM701, given as maintenance treatment, can slow disease progression, delay the need for new anti-cancer treatments, and to understand its safety profile in participants who have had prior platinum-containing therapies. This trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study where participants have a 67% chance to receive COM701 and a 33% chance to receive a placebo. The treatment is given through intravenous infusion once every three weeks. The study includes multiple sub-studies, with initial focus on COM701 alone and later evaluation of COM701 combined with other anti-cancer drugs as maintenance therapy. Participants will visit the clinic every three weeks for treatment infusion and undergo various health checks including physical exams, vital signs, ECG, blood and urine tests, and pregnancy tests if applicable. Disease response is monitored through tumor imaging by CT or MRI scans and analysis of tumor tissue samples. The main outcome is progression-free survival over up to two years, with safety monitored during and up to 90 days after treatment. The study duration and follow-up depend on individual participant progress.

Researchers are studying BMS-986506 in people with advanced Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma ccRCC, a type of kidney cancer. This first-in-human phase 11b trial aims to determine if BMS-986506 is safe and can be tolerated when given alone or combined with other treatments. The study focuses on participants with advanced or metastatic ccRCC who have had prior therapies or are newly treated depending on the trial part. Participants receive BMS-986506 alone or in combination with Pumitamig andor Ipilimumab at specified doses on scheduled days. The trial includes multiple parts dose escalation and expansion phases for monotherapy and combination therapies. Each part varies by prior treatments and combination regimens to assess safety and tolerability of these treatment approaches. Throughout the study, participants are monitored for adverse events, serious side effects, and dose-limiting toxicities up to about 2 years from the first dose. Blood samples are taken to measure drug levels up to around 112 days. Researchers also assess tumor response and disease control for up to 3 years. The study lasts several years with ongoing safety and effectiveness evaluations under medical supervision.
