Researchers are studying advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has returned after prior adjuvant therapy. The trial aims to find out if treatment with belzutifan and zanzalintinib helps patients live longer and delays disease progression compared to treatment with cabozantinib. This is a Phase 3 randomized study focusing on participants with recurrent advanced RCC who have previously received anti-PD-1/L1 therapy. Participants are randomly assigned to receive one of two oral drug regimens: either belzutifan combined with zanzalintinib, both taken once daily, or cabozantinib alone, also taken once daily. The study compares these treatments to assess their effects on disease control and overall survival. During the study, participants will be monitored for progression-free survival and overall survival for up to approximately 73 months. Researchers will evaluate how well the cancer responds to treatment and track any changes in health status over time. Safety and effectiveness of the treatments will be closely followed throughout the study period.

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 a phase 1/2 open-label study to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and clinical effects of an oral drug called Enzomenib (DSP-5336) in patients with acute leukemia, including relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), ambiguous lineage acute leukemia, and in certain sites, high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or relapsed multiple myeloma (MM). The study also examines Enzomenib combined with standard AML treatments such as venetoclax plus azacitidine and the intensive chemotherapy 7+3 regimen in patients newly diagnosed with AML who have specific genetic mutations (MLL rearrangement or NPM1 mutation). Participants receive oral Enzomenib either alone or combined with other drugs: venetoclax and azacitidine for a nonintensive treatment group, gilteritinib for a certain relapsed AML group, or intensive chemotherapy with cytarabine and daunorubicin (7+3) for newly diagnosed AML patients. The study includes dose escalation and expansion phases to determine recommended doses for phase 2. Treatment schedules and doses are adjusted based on response and safety, with some patients enrolled in specialized cohorts according to their genetic markers. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular assessments including clinical exams, laboratory tests, bone marrow samples for genetic analysis, and monitoring for adverse events. Researchers measure safety outcomes such as adverse and serious adverse events, determine optimal dosing for phase 2, and evaluate treatment effectiveness by tracking complete response rates. Safety is monitored up to 30 days after the last dose, with dose recommendations made within four months of treatment start and response assessed around six months. The total participation time varies based on individual treatment and study phase.

Researchers are evaluating ELVN-001, a new drug, in adults with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), including those with or without a specific T315I mutation. This early phase 1a/1b study aims to find the best dose of ELVN-001 for future studies by assessing its safety, tolerability, and how the body processes the drug. The study also looks at changes in a key leukemia marker called BCR-ABL1 to gather initial evidence of the drug's effect on CML. Participants will receive ELVN-001 orally once or twice daily. The trial includes a dose escalation period to identify recommended doses for further research. This first-in-human study will monitor patients closely to understand the safety profile and pharmacokinetics of ELVN-001. The drug is being tested in patients who have relapsed, are resistant, or cannot tolerate other tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Throughout the study, participants will be monitored for adverse events, dose-limiting toxicities, and any significant lab or heart test abnormalities up to 28 days in phase 1a and for up to 3 years in phase 1b. Researchers will assess safety, tolerability, and leukemia markers regularly. The total duration of monitoring allows for a thorough evaluation of ELVN-001's effects and safety in adults with chronic phase CML.

Researchers are conducting a phase 3 open-label, randomized, controlled, multicenter study to compare petosemtamab with investigator's choice monotherapy in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) who have incurable metastatic or recurrent disease. This study focuses on patients with progressive disease after anti-PD-1 therapy and platinum-containing therapy and aims to evaluate the treatments as second- or third-line options. Participants will receive either petosemtamab or one of the investigator's choice monotherapies, including cetuximab, methotrexate, or docetaxel. 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 treatments for participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation. This Phase 3 study compares if the combination of belantamab mafodotin, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (BRd) can extend progression-free survival or increase the number of participants achieving minimal residual disease negative status compared with the combination of daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (DRd). Participants will receive either BRd or DRd treatment. Belantamab mafodotin, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone will be administered in the BRd group, while daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone will be given in the DRd group. The study will monitor participants over approximately 7 years to assess long-term outcomes. During the study, participants will undergo assessments to measure progression-free survival and minimal residual disease status. Researchers will collect clinical data, laboratory tests, and safety information throughout the treatment and follow-up periods. The total duration of participation may last up to about 7 years to evaluate long-term effects and outcomes of the treatments.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of calderasib combined with pembrolizumab as a first treatment in adults with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a specific KRAS G12C mutation and a PD-L1 tumor proportion score of 50% or higher. This Phase 3 trial aims to test if the combination of calderasib and pembrolizumab improves progression-free survival and overall survival compared to pembrolizumab with a placebo. Participants receive oral calderasib tablets or placebo along with pembrolizumab given by intravenous infusion. The study compares these two treatment groups to see which provides better outcomes. Treatments continue during the study, and there are no additional interventions described beyond these drugs. During the trial, participants undergo regular assessments including scans and tests to monitor their cancer's progression and overall health. The main outcomes measured are progression-free survival for up to about 42 months and overall survival for up to about 56 months. Safety is monitored throughout, and participants are followed for several years to evaluate long-term effects of the treatments.

This research aims to provide ongoing access to treatments for participants with multiple myeloma or smoldering multiple myeloma who are benefiting from treatment in certain Janssen studies that include daratumumab. It allows all participants from daratumumab studies and those in daratumumab-containing arms of related studies, which have reached clinical cutoff for final analysis, to continue treatment. The study also collects long-term safety data from these participants. The treatments being evaluated include daratumumab, which is given either intravenously or subcutaneously, carfilzomib administered intravenously, dexamethasone given orally or intravenously, and oral medications lenalidomide and pomalidomide. Participants will continue to receive these treatments as part of this long-term extension study following their previous study treatment. During the study, participants will be monitored for safety, including tracking serious adverse events, adverse events of special interest, pregnancies, and abnormal pregnancies over a period of 3 years and 7 months. Assessments include pregnancy testing for women of childbearing potential and adherence to lifestyle restrictions. Participants must provide informed consent and will be followed closely to evaluate the long-term effects and safety of their treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of adding LY3537982 (olomorasib) to standard anti-cancer drugs compared to standard treatment alone in participants with untreated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a specific KRAS G12C gene mutation. This pivotal Phase 3 trial includes participants with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC and considers their programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression levels. The study includes multiple parts: Dose Optimization, Part A, and Part B are randomized, while Safety Lead-In for Part B and Part C are non-randomized. Treatments being assessed include LY3537982 taken orally, pembrolizumab administered intravenously, and standard chemotherapy drugs such as cisplatin, carboplatin, and pemetrexed given intravenously. Participants receive these treatments according to their assigned groups based on their PD-L1 expression and tumor histology. Participants will be monitored with regular assessments including measuring disease progression, safety evaluations, and treatment emergent adverse events for up to approximately one year, with overall study participation potentially lasting up to three years depending on individual response and health status. Outcome measures focus on progression-free survival and safety, capturing any adverse events from the start of treatment until disease progression or death.
