In this study, researchers are assessing the safety and effectiveness of giving the drug disitamab vedotin alone and in combination with pembrolizumab immunotherapy in people with inoperable or metastatic urothelial cancers that make too much of the HER2 protein. Disitamab vedotin targets and kills cancer cells with the HER2 protein. Pembrolizumab boosts the power of the immune system to detect and destroy cancer cells.
Primary immune regulatory disorder (PIRD) and autoinflammatory conditions are conditions of the immune system that can cause an unusual amount of inflammation. While a stem cell transplant is a standard treatment for people with a PIRD or autoinflammatory condition, the inflammation caused by these conditions can reduce the effectiveness of this treatment.

Researchers in this study are comparing two different treatments for hairy cell leukemia. The people in this study have hairy cell leukemia that has not yet been treated. In addition, their leukemia has a genetic mutation (change) called BRAF V600E.
Researchers want to find the best dose of AZD9592 to use in people with lung and head and neck cancers. They will assess AZD9592 when it is given alone and with the anti-cancer drug osimertinib. The people in this study have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or head and neck cancer with mutations (changes or variants) in the EGFR gene.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug XL092 that can be given safely with immunotherapy drugs in people with advanced solid tumors that have come back or continued to grow despite treatment. Immunotherapy drugs boost the ability of the immune system to find and kill cancer cells.
In this study, researchers are assessing the safety of the drug lurbinectedin in young people with solid tumors. In the first part, they will find the highest dose of lurbinectedin to use safely in children with solid tumors. If your child joins, this is the part of the study they will be in.
