Testing Longer Duration Radiation Therapy Versus the Usual Radiation Therapy in Patients With Cancer That Has Spread to the Brain

Neuro-Oncology

This phase III trial compares the effectiveness of fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS) to usual care stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in treating patients with cancer that has spread from where it first started to the brain. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. FSRS delivers a high dose of radiation to the tumor over 3 treatments. SRS is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. FSRS may be more effective compared to SRS in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain.

High-Resolution PET-CT Imaging for Surgical Margin Visualization

Miscellaneous

Imaging will be exploratory and be used intraoperatively. There have been no discovered risks associated with the device to be used in this study, and none are anticipated given the diagnostic and non-invasive, 'ex vivo' nature of device use. Of note, the surgical resection will proceed as per standard of care and will not be affected by the research protocol.

Potential Benefit: Imaging intra-operatively will ensure surgeons to identify at risk resection margins.

Time Commitment: There are no additional visits that will be asked of you to partake in this study.

Drug is FDA approved and Exposure to Radiation is minimal.

A Multi-Institution Study of TGF Imprinted, Ex Vivo Expanded Universal Donor NK Cell Infusions as Adoptive Immunotherapy in Combination With Gemcitabine and Docetaxel in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Pediatric Bone and Soft Tissue

Multiple Cancer Types

The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of infusions of a type of immune cell called a "natural killer", or NK cell to the sarcoma chemotherapy regimen GEM/DOX (gemcitabine and docetaxel) can improve outcomes in people with childhood sarcomas that have relapsed or not responded to prior therapies.

The goals of this study are:

* To determine the safety and efficacy of the addition of adoptive transfer of universal donor, TGF imprinted (TGFi), expanded NK cells to the pediatric sarcoma salvage chemotherapeutic regimen gemcitabine/docetaxel (GEM/DOX) for treatment of relapsed and refractory pediatric sarcomas To determine the 6-month progression free survival achieved with this treatment in patients within cohorts of relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma and non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma.
* To identify toxicities related to treatment with GEM/DOX + TGFi expanded NK cells

Participants will receive study drugs that include chemotherapy and NK cells in cycles; each cycle is 21 days long and you can receive up to 8 cycles.

* Gemcitabine (GEM): via IV on Days 1 and 8
* Docetaxel (DOX): via IV on Day 8
* Prophylactic dexamethasone: Day 7-9 to prevent fluid retention and hypersensitivity reaction
* Peg-filgrastim (PEG-GCSF) or biosimilar: Day 9 to help your white blood cell recover and allow more chemotherapy to be given
* TGFi NK cells: via IV on Day 12

A Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Multiple Treatment Combinations in Patients With Metastatic or Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

Multiple Cancer Types

This is an umbrella study evaluating the efficacy and safety of multiple treatment combinations in participants with metastatic or inoperable locally advanced breast cancer.

The study will be performed in two stages. During Stage 1, six cohorts will be enrolled in parallel in this study:

Cohort 1 will consist of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive participants who have received no prior systemic therapy for metastatic or inoperable locally advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) (first-line \[1L\] PD-L1+ cohort).

Cohort 2 will consist of participants who had disease progression during or following 1L treatment with chemotherapy for metastatic or inoperable locally-advanced TNBC and have not received cancer immunotherapy (CIT) (second-line \[2L\] CIT-nave cohort).

Cohort 3, 5, and 6 will consist of participants with locally advanced or metastatic hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative disease with one or more PIK3CA mutations.

Cohort 4 will consist of participants with locally advanced or metastatic HER2+ /HER2-low disease with one or more PIK3CA mutations who had disease progression on standard-of-care therapies (HER2+ /HER2-low cohort).

In each cohort, eligible participants will initially be assigned to one of several treatment arms (Stage 1). During Stage 2, participants in the 2L CIT-nave cohort who experience disease progression, loss of clinical benefit, or unacceptable toxicity during Stage 1 may be eligible to continue treatment with a different treatment combination, provided Stage 2 is open for enrollment and all eligibility criteria are met.

Eflornithine (DFMO) and AMXT 1501 for Neuroblastoma, CNS Tumors, and Sarcomas

Multiple Cancer Types

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the investigational oral drug AMXT 1501 in combination with oral eflornithine (DFMO). An investigational drug is one that has not been approved by the U.S. Food \& Drug Administration (FDA), or any other regulatory authorities around the world for use alone or in combination with any drug, for the condition or illness it is being used to treat.

The goals of this part of the study are:

* Establish a recommended dose of AMXT 1501 in combination with DFMO
* Test the safety and tolerability of AMXT 1501 in combination with DFMO
* To determine the activity of study treatments chosen based on:
* How each subject responds to the study treatment
* How long a subject lives without their disease returning/progressing
