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 conducting a Phase 3 randomized trial to evaluate how well azenosertib works and how safe it is compared to chemotherapy chosen by the doctor for women with platinum-resistant high-grade serous ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancers that test positive for cyclin E1 protein. This cancer type relies on WEE1 for cell cycle control, and azenosertib targets this pathway to increase tumor cell damage and death. The study compares two treatment groups one receives azenosertib orally at 400 mg daily on a schedule of 5 days on and 2 days off, while the other group receives chemotherapy selected by the investigator according to protocol guidelines. The chemotherapy options include paclitaxel, gemcitabine, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin PLD, or topotecan, all given intravenously. Treatments continue as per the study plan to assess their effects. Participants will be closely monitored for up to about 24 months after the last person enrolls. Researchers will perform regular assessments including tumor measurements using RECIST criteria, quality of life questionnaires, and tracking of side effects or adverse events. The main outcome measured is progression-free survival, with additional evaluations of overall survival and response rates. Safety and quality of life changes will also be followed throughout the study.

Researchers are evaluating whether adding immunotherapy drugs brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab to the standard treatment of chemotherapy with or without radiation improves survival for patients aged 5 to 60 with early stage classical Hodgkin lymphoma. This phase III trial compares progression-free survival and overall survival between the standard therapy and the immunotherapy-enhanced approach, as well as patient-reported outcomes and long-term side effects. Participants initially receive two cycles of ABVD chemotherapy every 28 days and then undergo imaging to classify their early response. Based on risk level and response, patients are assigned to one of eight treatment arms that include either continuing standard chemotherapy, receiving immunotherapy drugs, or combinations with involved-site radiation therapy. Treatments are delivered intravenously or orally in cycles lasting 28 days. Imaging and blood samples are collected throughout the trial. Participants are monitored regularly with PET scans, CT or MRI imaging, and blood tests. Follow-up visits occur every 3 months in the first year, then every 6 months for years two and three, and annually up to 12 years from registration. Researchers assess survival outcomes, adverse events, patient-reported symptoms and quality of life, and metabolic tumor burden. Long-term effects such as cardiovascular and pulmonary health are also evaluated using questionnaires and clinical assessments.

Researchers are studying two surgical procedures to reduce the risk of ovarian cancer in women with BRCA1 genetic mutations. This trial compares bilateral salpingectomy, which removes only the fallopian tubes, with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, which removes both fallopian tubes and ovaries. The goal is to find out if removing just the fallopian tubes with delayed ovary removal is nearly as effective as removing both from the start. Participants choose between two groups one undergoes bilateral salpingectomy with the option of later ovary removal, and the other undergoes bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Both groups have imaging tests like pelvic ultrasounds or pelvic MRIs during screening and provide blood samples throughout the study. Follow-up visits occur at multiple time points, including 10 to 60 days, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, and then yearly for up to 20 years. During the study, researchers track if ovarian or related cancers develop and assess symptoms related to estrogen loss, quality of life, cancer-related distress, sexual function, menopausal symptoms, medical decision making, and any adverse events. Various questionnaires and imaging tests support these evaluations. Long-term safety and cancer risk reduction are monitored for up to two decades after surgery.
