Radiation therapy is one of the usual approaches to treating triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Researchers think that adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab, with or without olaparib, to radiation therapy may be a better treatment for TNBC than radiation therapy alone.
Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a disease in which lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) become cancerous and affect the skin, causing "cutaneous T-cell lymphoma." Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is a rare and similar disorder that causes lymphoma-like skin lesions.
People with endometrial cancer often gain weight during and after chemotherapy. Medicines to reduce the risk of an allergic reaction for people receiving chemotherapy can also raise blood sugar. Weight gain can affect overall health and cancer recovery.
Researchers are doing this study to see how well COM701 immunotherapy works when used as maintenance therapy for ovarian cancer. Maintenance therapy helps keep cancer from growing again after it shrank or stopped growing following earlier treatment.
Researchers are assessing treatment with BGB-16673 in combination with other anti-cancer medications in people with B-cell cancers. These cancers include:
Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is a substance taken up specifically by neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, or paraganglioma tumor cells. MIBG can be combined with radioactive iodine (131I) in the laboratory to form the radioactive compound 131I-MIBG. The 131I-MIBG compound concentrates more in cancer cells than in normal cells. It may therefore deliver more radiation directly to cancer cells while sparing normal organs.
Researchers are assessing the cellular therapy lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) in people with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL). The people in this study have PCNSL that has not yet been treated. In addition, they cannot have autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). During ASCT, a patient's healthy, blood-forming cells are collected before treatment, stored, and returned after treatment with very strong chemotherapy.
Breast cancer (TNBC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that spread to other parts of the body (metastasize) are usually treated with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapies, and/or radiation therapy. In this study, researchers want to see if using stereotactic body radiosurgery (SBRT) to all metastatic tumors plus standard therapy is more effective than standard therapy alone in patients with oligometastatic TNBC or NSCLC (five or fewer metastatic tumors).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the investigational immunotherapy LN-145 in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has metastasized despite prior treatment. LN-145 is called "autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes" (TIL) therapy. It activates white blood cells to attack the tumor.
