Doctors are assessing a new photodynamic therapy (PDT) for prostate cancer that has not spread beyond the prostate. This treatment is performed in an operating room while you are under general anesthesia.
-
In this study, researchers want to find the highest dose of the drug abemaciclib that can be given safely with ruxolitinib in people with myelofibrosis that has developed on its own (primary myelofibrosis) or as a complication of the blood diseases polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia. In people with myelofibrosis, the bone marrow is not able to make enough blood cells. The spleen is bigger than normal, making the stomach feel very full. Patients may also have fever and night sweats.

Unfavorable intermediate-risk prostate cancers have not spread beyond the prostate but have a chance of coming back. They are usually treated with surgery or radiation therapy, with or without hormonal therapy. One of the more common standard treatment approaches is hormonal therapy called androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), which reduces the levels of male sex hormones, followed by external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) to the prostate and nearby lymph nodes.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of partial breast radiation therapy given over a three-day period (three weekdays in a row) in women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or early-stage invasive breast cancer after lumpectomy. Women who are not in a research study usually receive radiation therapy to the whole breast over three weeks or receive partial breast irradiation over a five- to ten-day period.

Imatinib is a standard long-term therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Some people are able to stop taking imatinib after their CML is in remission, but sometimes it comes back and retreatment is needed. In this study, researchers want to see if adding the drug asciminib to imatinib therapy prior to a second attempt at stopping treatment will lead to prolonged treatment-free remission (no evidence of cancer after stopping therapy).
-
The purpose of this study is to find the highest doses of ruxolitinib and duvelisib when given together in patients with T-cell or NK-cell lymphoma that has come back or continued to grow despite prior treatment. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved ruxolitinib as a treatment for myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera (other blood disorders). The FDA has approved duvelisib to treat follicular lymphoma, small lymphocytic lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The use of these two drugs together in this study is considered investigational.

CAR T-cell therapy is a form of immunotherapy used to treat some adults with lymphoma. The treatment involves utilizing a patient's own T cells and genetically modifying them in the laboratory to recognize a protein on their cancer cells. The modified T cells, known as CAR T cells, are then returned to the patient to find and kill cancerous cells throughout the body.

Researchers are assessing a new type of therapy in young people with solid tumors that keep growing even after treatment. The therapy is called afamitresgene autoleucel. The people in this study have synovial sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), neuroblastoma, or osteosarcoma. In addition, they have tested positive for the HLA-A*02 gene and their cancers make a protein called MAGE-A4. This protein plays a role in cancer growth.
-
The purpose of this study is to see if delivering laser light directly to the prostate to activate a light-sensitive drug is a safe and effective treatment for prostate cancer that has come back after radiation therapy. The goal of this treatment is to eliminate any remaining prostate cancer cells. This approach is a form of photodynamic therapy (PDT).
-
Researchers are assessing different doses of FT825 alone or with cetuximab to treat people with advanced solid tumors. Their tumors have high levels of the HER2 protein. Altered HER2 proteins can fuel cancer growth.
