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 want to find the best dose of ADCLEC.syn1 that can be used in people with leukemia. The people in this study have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that keeps growing even after treatment. There are currently no FDA-approved CAR T cell therapies for AML.
This study is assessing the safety and effectiveness of ASTX727 in people who have malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) with a mutation in a gene complex called PRC2 (EED or SUZ12). ASTX727 is a combination of two drugs (cedazuridine and decitabine) that have been designed to target cancer cells with a PRC2 complex genetic mutation and disrupt the cells' ability to survive and grow.
Prostate cancers initially need the male hormone testosterone for growth. Hormone therapies that lower the level of testosterone are among the best treatments for prostate cancers that have metastasized (spread). The benefits of hormone treatments often do not last, however. Over time, many prostate cancers keep growing even with hormonal therapies. These are called castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC).
Cancer and its treatment can cause problems with attention, memory, and learning. These cognitive difficulties may affect your daily activities and worsen your quality of life.
Researchers are assessing the safety of the drug VT3989 in people with mesothelioma. The people in this study have mesothelioma with a mutation (change or variant) in the NF2 gene.
Researchers in this study want to find the best dose of STAR0602 to use in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have cancer that is inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery) or metastatic (has spread). STAR0602 boosts the immune system to stop tumor growth. It is given intravenously (by vein).
Researchers are doing this study to see if Revaree Plus improves vaginal health in people treated for breast cancer. The people in this study are having symptoms of vaginal dryness or discomfort during breast cancer treatment.
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).
