This phase II trial tests whether loncastuximab tesirine works to shrink tumors in patients with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), a type of immune cell cancer, that has come back (relapsed) or become unresponsive to one or more treatments (refractory). Loncastuximab tesirine is composed of an antibody, called loncastuximab linked to a chemotherapy drug called tesirine. Loncastuximab attaches to specific proteins in the cancer cell and delivers tesirine only to the cancer cells because of this antibody. Ultimately this results in cancer cell death only without exposing normal cells to the tesirine.

This phase Ib trial tests the safety and tolerability of ZEN003694 in combination with an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab and the usual chemotherapy approach with nab-paclitaxel for the treatment of patients with triple negative-negative breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (advanced). Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Nab-paclitaxel is an albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation of paclitaxel which may have fewer side effects and work better than other forms of paclitaxel. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab may help the body's immune system attach the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. ZEN003694 is an inhibitor of a family of proteins called the bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET). It may prevent the growth of tumor cells that over produce BET protein. Combination therapy with ZEN003694 pembrolizumab immunotherapy and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy may help shrink or stabilize cancer for longer than chemotherapy alone.

The goal of this trial is to see if active surveillance monitoring and hormonal therapy in
patients diagnosed with ductal cell carcinoma in situ (DCIS), an early stage of breast
cancer, can be an effective management of the disease.

Participants will be asked to receive control hormonal therapy or an investigational hormonal
therapy treatment. Participants will be asked to return for evaluation with MRI at three
months and six months. Depending on the evaluation participants will have the option to
continue on the treatment. If the evaluation suggests surgery is recommended, the participant
will discontinue the study treatment and will undergo surgery. In addition to the treatment
and MRI evaluation, participants will be asked to provide blood sample to understand their
immune status, provide saliva sample for genetic testing, provide the study with a portion of
the tissue or slides generated from tissue removed during surgery performed as part of their
standard of care.

This phase I trial is to find out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of nilotinib given together with trametinib and dabrafenib in treating patients with BRAF V600 mutant melanoma that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Nilotinib, trametinib, and dabrafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving nilotinib together with trametinib and dabrafenib may lower the chance of cancer growing or spreading.

This protocol describes prospective, open-label, blinded, randomized controlled, multicenter
pivotal studies to evaluate ALM-488.

This is a Phase 1, Open-Label, Dose Escalation and Expansion, Multicenter Study of Claudin
18.2-Targeted Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cells in Subjects with Unresectable, Locally
Advanced, or Metastatic Gastric, Gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ), Esophageal, or Pancreatic
Adenocarcinoma

The PIK3CA gene is frequently mutated in breast cancer, leading to disease aggressiveness and
patient mortality. Alpelisib, a small molecule that inhibits the activity of the PIK3CA gene
product PI3K, has demonstrated clinical benefit in cancer patients with this gene mutation.
However, hyperglycemia, an on-target toxicity associated with alpelisib that leads to
hyperinsulinemia, limits the drug's clinical efficacy and induces high grade hyperglycemia in
patients with baseline metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance and/or elevated HbA1c.
Restoring insulin sensitivity and reduction in circulating concentrations of insulin have
been reported to improve the activity of alpelisib.

Evexomostat (SDX-7320) is a polymer-conjugate of a novel small molecule methionine
aminopeptidase 2 (MetAP2) inhibitor that has demonstrated the ability to reduce
alpelisib-induced hyperglycemia in multiple animal experiments and has demonstrated
synergistic anti-tumor activity independent of changes in glucose or insulin. Evexomostat was
well tolerated in a Phase 1 safety study in late-stage cancer patients and showed
improvements in insulin resistance for patients that presented with baseline elevated
insulin. Overall, the most common treatment-emergent adverse events with evexomostat (TEAEs)
were fatigue (44%), decreased appetite (38%), constipation and nausea (each 28%), and
diarrhea (22%). All other TEAEs occurred at an incidence <20%.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety of the triplet drug combination
(alpelisib, fulvestrant plus evexomostat), to test whether evexomostat, when given in
combination with alpelisib and fulvestrant will reduce the number and severity of
hyperglycemic events and/or reduce the number of anti-diabetic medications needed to control
the hyperglycemia for patients deemed at risk for alpelisib-induced hyperglycemia (baseline
elevated HbA1c or well-controlled type 2 diabetes), and to assess preliminary anti-tumor
efficacy and changes in key biomarkers and quality of life in this patient population.

This phase II trial tests how well evaluating circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) works to guide therapy-change decisions in treating patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). This study wants to learn if small pieces of DNA associated with a tumor (called circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA) can be detected in investigational blood tests during the course of standard chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer, and whether information from such investigational ctDNA blood testing could possibly be used as an early indication of chemotherapy treatment failure. It is hoped that additional information from investigational blood testing for ctDNA could help doctors to switch more quickly from a standard chemotherapy treatment that typically has significant side effects and which may not be working, to a different standard treatment regimen against TNBC, called sacituzumab govitecan. Sacituzumab govitecan is a monoclonal antibody, called hRS7, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called irinotecan. hRS7 is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as TROP2 receptors, and delivers irinotecan to kill them. Studying ctDNA may assist doctors to change therapy earlier if needed, and may improve health outcomes in patients with metastatic TNBC.

This phase II trial tests how well canakinumab works to prevent progression to cancer in patients with clonal cytopenias of unknown significance (CCUS). CCUS is a blood condition defined by a decrease in blood cells. Blood cells are composed of either red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets. In patients with CCUS, blood counts have been low for a long period of time. Patients with CCUS also have a mutation in one of the genes that are responsible for helping blood cells develop. The combination of genetic mutations and low blood cell counts puts patients with CCUS at a higher risk to develop blood cancers in the future. This transformation from low blood cell counts to cancer may be caused by inflammation in the body. Canakinumab is a monoclonal antibody that may block inflammation in the body by targeting a specific antibody called the anti-human interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta).

This open-label research study is studying (Z)-endoxifen as a possible treatment for
pre-menopausal (still having periods) women with ER+/HER2- breast cancer. (Z)-endoxifen is a
selective estrogen receptor modulator or "SERM." SERMs work to treat cancer by blocking the
body's natural estrogen from binding to cancer cells. This study includes a pharmacokinetic
part (PK, how the drug works in your body) and a treatment part. The primary purpose of the
study is to see how (Z)-endoxifen works on tumor cell growth by monitoring a cancer marker
called Ki-67. Ki-67 will be measured by biopsy of the breast after about 4 weeks of
treatment. If your cancer is responding to treatment based on the Ki-67 results, you may
continue treatment up to 24 weeks or until surgery.

The PK part of the study will be enrolled first, enrolling about 18 study participants who
will all receive oral once daily (Z)-endoxifen treatment. 12 of these participants will be
randomly assigned to treatment with an equal (50/50) chance to be assigned to (Z)-endoxifen
or (Z)-endoxifen + goserelin (a medication given to block the ovaries from making estrogen
and is also called ovarian suppression). This part of the study will help select the dose of
(Z)-endoxifen to use in the treatment part by measuring the levels of (Z)-endoxifen in the
blood stream and determine how long it takes for the body to remove it.

About 160 study participants will be enrolled in the treatment part. The treatment part will
help to determine how oral once daily (Z)-endoxifen, when taken by itself, compares to oral
once daily exemestane (a medication that decreases the amount of estrogen in the body, also
known as an aromatase inhibitor) and monthly injections of goserelin. Exemestane and
goserelin taken together is a standard treatment regimen for premenopausal patients with
ER+/HER2- breast cancer. Study participants are randomly assigned to treatment with an equal
(50/50) chance to be assigned to (Z)-endoxifen or standard treatment.

Study participation is up to 24 weeks of treatment followed by surgery.
