An Adjuvant Endocrine-based Therapy Study of Camizestrant (AZD9833) in ER+/HER2- Early Breast Cancer (CAMBRIA-2)

Breast

This is a Phase III open-label study to assess if camizestrant improves outcomes compared to
standard adjuvant endocrine therapy for patients with ER+/HER2- early breast cancer with
intermediate-high or high risk for disease recurrence who completed definitive locoregional
therapy (with or without chemotherapy). The planned duration of treatment in either arm
within the study will be 7 years.

Circulating Tumor DNA to Guide Changes in Standard of Care Chemotherapy in Patients with Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer

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.

Canakinumab for the Prevention of Progression to Cancer in Patients with Clonal Cytopenias of Unknown Significance, IMPACT Study

Leukemia

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).

Hypofractionated Radiotherapy followed by Surgery for the Treatment of Soft Tissue Sarcomas

Sarcoma

This phase II trial studies the effect of hypofractionated radiotherapy followed by surgery in treating patients with soft tissue sarcoma. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Giving hypofractionated radiotherapy followed by surgery may allow patients with sarcomas to be treated in a much more rapid and convenient fashion.

Gabapentin plus Ketamine for the Prevention of Acute and Chronic Pain in Patients with Locally Advanced Head and Neck Cancer Undergoing Chemoradiation

Multiple Cancer Types

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of a combination of gabapentin and ketamine and to see how well it works to prevent acute and chronic pain in patients receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy (chemoradiation) for head and neck cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Gabapentin is a medication that is commonly used to treat nerve related pain. Specifically, it has been used to treat pain involving the mouth, throat and nasal passages in head and neck cancer patients treated with radiation. Ketamine is a type of general anesthetic that blocks pathways to the brain involved with sensing pain. This trial may help doctors determine how patients tolerate the combination of gabapentin and ketamine and to find the correct dosing for ketamine in those taking gabapentin. This will be the basis for a future, larger study to look at how effective this combination is at reducing and/or preventing pain in head and neck cancer patients.

Heated Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Followed by Niraparib for Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal and Fallopian Tube Cancer

Ovarian

Patients will be registered prior to, during or at the completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy
(Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours and Carboplatin AUC 6 IV on Day 1 every 21 days for 3-4
cycles). Registered patients who progress during neoadjuvant chemotherapy will not be
eligible for iCRS and will be removed from the study.

Following completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, interval cytoreductive surgery (iCRS) will
be performed in the usual fashion in both arms. Patients will be randomized at the time of
iCRS (iCRS must achieve no gross residual disease or no disease >1.0 cm in largest diameter)
to receive HIPEC or no HIPEC. Patients randomized to HIPEC (Arm A) will receive a single dose
of cisplatin (100mg/m2 IP over 90 minutes at 42 C) as HIPEC. After postoperative recovery
patients will receive standard post-operative platinum-based combination chemotherapy.
Patients randomized to surgery only (Arm B) will receive postoperative standard chemotherapy
after recovery from surgery.

Both groups will receive an additional 2-3 cycles of platinum-based combination chemotherapy
per institutional standard (Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours and Carboplatin AUC 6 IV on
Day 1 every 21 days for 2-3 cycles) for a maximum total of 6 cycles of chemotherapy
(neoadjuvant plus post-operative cycles) followed by niraparib individualized dosing until
progression or 36 months (if no evidence of disease).

Improving Care after Inherited Cancer Testing (IMPACT) Study

Miscellaneous

This clinical trial investigates factors associated with access to genetic risk assessment, counseling, and testings services. The trial also seeks to refine and evaluate the effectiveness of online tools on improving cancer risk management practices and family communication of genetic test results.
