Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a type of T-cell cancer. This cancer has a fusion (change) in the ALK gene. The fusion gene makes a protein that promotes cancer growth and survival. This type of cancer is called ALK-positive ALCL.

In this study, researchers are assessing the drug asciminib for people who recently learned they have chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). They will take it twice a day. If after two years they do not respond well to asciminib, they may take the drug nilotinib with asciminib.

The current standard treatment for throat cancer that is positive for the human papillomavirus (HPV) is 7 weeks of daily radiation therapy given together with chemotherapy, but this treatment can have severe side effects. In this study, researchers are assessing significantly lower doses of radiation (3 weeks) to achieve local and regional control of the tumor with significantly fewer side effects. Treatments will be given in combination with lower doses of chemotherapy (cisplatin, carboplatin, and 5-fluorouracil) as well in people with HPV-positive throat cancer.

The combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy (chemoradiation) is a standard treatment for people with HPV-positive throat cancer. HPV is human papillomavirus and can cause throat cancer. Radiation therapy uses radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Chemotherapy stops the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or stopping them from dividing. However, this standard combination may cause severe side effects because it is given over 7 weeks. These side effects include sores in the mouth and gut, sore throat, and changes in taste.

Researchers want to see if AAA617 can slow the growth of advanced prostate cancer. They also want to learn if this treatment can delay the need to start hormonal therapy. Treatment with AAA617 will be compared to observation (no treatment other than standard targeted radiation therapy).

Leiomyosarcoma is a type of cancer that forms in smooth muscle. Researchers want to see if adding ADI-PEG 20 to the usual chemotherapy for leiomyosarcoma works better than chemotherapy alone. The people in this study have leiomyosarcoma that keeps growing despite treatment.

The combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy (chemoradiation) is a standard treatment for people with HPV-positive throat cancer. HPV is human papillomavirus and can cause throat cancer. Standard chemoradiation may cause severe side effects such as mouth and gut sores, sore throat, and changes in taste.

Researchers in this study want to compare sentinel lymph node biopsy surgery with standard neck dissection as part of the treatment for people with early-stage oral cavity (mouth) cancer. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is a procedure that removes a smaller number of lymph nodes from the neck because it uses an imaging agent to see which lymph nodes are most likely to have cancer. Standard elective neck dissection removes many of the lymph nodes in the neck but may reduce shoulder mobility and strength.
