Study Objectives
This is an open label, dose finding, phase Ib clinical trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of the orally administered phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor BKM120 in combination with the MEK1/2 inhibitor MEK162. This combination will be explored in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) which has progressed on EGFR inhibitors and triple negative breast cancer, as well as pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, malignant melanoma, NSCLC, and other advanced solid tumors with KRAS, NRAS, and/or BRAF mutations. Dose escalation will be guided by a Bayesian logistic regression model with overdose control. At MTD or RP2D, two expansion arms will be opened in order to further assess safety and preliminary anti-tumor activity of the combination of BKM120 and MEK162.
Study drugs will be administered once daily orally on a continuous schedule. A treatment cycle is defined as 28 days.

Study Objectives
RATIONALE: Pomalidomide and bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bortezomib may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving pomalidomide and bortezomib together with dexamethasone may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bortezomib when given together with pomalidomide and dexamethasone and to see how well it works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Study Objectives
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well letrozole and imatinib mesylate work in treating postmenopausal participants with estrogen or progesterone positive breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Letrozole is an antihormonal drug used in the standard treatment of hormonal sensitive breast cancer. Imatinib mesylate is a drug that binds to certain proteins on the tumor cells and prevents them from further growth. Imatinib mesylate is thought to prevent the potential resistance to letrozole, which may make the letrozole more effective. Giving letrozole and imatinib mesylate may work better in treating participants with breast cancer.

Study Objectives
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the study drug ceftolozane-tazobactam is more effective in controlling febrile neutropenia (fever and low white blood cell counts) than using approved antibiotics in patients with cancer. The safety of ceftolozane-tazobactam will also be studied.
This is an investigational study. Ceftolozane-tazobactam is FDA approved and commercially available to treat certain types of infections. It is not approved for the treatment of febrile neutropenia, either by itself or in combination with other antibiotics. Its use to treat febrile neutropenia is investigational.
All other antibiotics given on this study are FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of infections. However, only cefepime is specifically FDA approved to treat febrile neutropenia. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work.
Up to 100 participants will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

Study Objectives
The aim of the present Phase III study is to assess the positive predictive value of NPC-07 (5-aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride) induced tissue fluorescence, safety and pharmacokinetics following a single dose of NPC-07 orally, at a dose of 20mg/kg/body weight, 3 hours prior to induction of anaesthesia for surgery of patients with newly or recurrent malignant glioma (WHO grades III/IV).
Positive predictive value will be confirmed by percentage of patients showing positive tumor cell identification in all biopsies taken from areas of strong and weak fluorescence. This study will be divided into two stages. After reviewing of the result of safety and pharmacokinetics of NPC-07 in small number of subjects by independent safety monitoring committee, more subjects will receive NPC-07 in Step II.

Study Objectives
This phase II open label study will evaluate adolescents (≥ 16 years of age) and adults with neurofibromatosis type-1 (NF1) and plexiform neurofibromas treated with the MEK inhibitor PD-0325901. The primary aim of the study will be to assess quantitative radiographic response in a target lesion. Subjects will receive PD-0325901 by mouth on a bid dosing schedule of 2 mg/m2/dose with a maximum dose of 4 mg bid. Each course is 4 weeks duration, and subjects will receive drug on a 3 week on/1 week off schedule. Subjects may receive additional courses beyond course 8 only if there is at least 15% reduction in volume of the target tumor. Subjects who have a 20% or greater reduction in target tumor volume at the end of 12 courses can continue on therapy for up to an additional year (maximum of 24 total courses). However, subjects who do not achieve at least 15% reduction in volume of the target tumor after 8 courses (\~8 months) will be considered treatment failures and taken off study.
The Primary purpose of this protocol is to determine whether PD-0325901 results in objective radiographic responses based on volumetric MRI measurements in adolescents and adults with NF1 and growing or symptomatic inoperable PN.
There are several secondary aims of this protocol:
To evaluate the feasibility and toxicity of chronic PD-0325901 administration in this patient population
To estimate the objective response rate of up to 2 non-target plexiform neurofibromas to PD-0325901 by MRI
To characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of PD-0325901 when administered to this patient population
To evaluate quality of life and pain during treatment with PD-0325901

Study Objectives
This study proposes a single-arm, phase II study of irinotecan with panitumumab as second-line therapy for patients with advanced esophageal adenocarcinoma. Efficacy will be assessed by response rate, with an exploratory outcome endpoint of time to progression (as panitumumab may result in prolonged stable disease). In addition to the usual safety assessments, molecular correlates will be carried out in order to search for pharmacodynamic and pharmacogenomic features that may correlate with response. Measures of host/patient immune function will be assessed by evaluating the relationship between Fc receptor polymorphisms and response in patients treated with panitumumab. Measures of EGFR protein and phosphoprotein expression by immunohistochemical- (IHC-) staining, K-ras mutation status1 and reverse-phase protein arrays (RPPA) and EGFR gene amplification by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) will be assessed as exploratory correlates.

Study Objectives
Open-label, phase I, non-randomized, multicentric study of single-agent birabresib (MK-8628) (formerly known as OTX015) administered according to two distinct regimens to participants with selected advanced tumors.
The study will be performed in two parts.
Dose Escalation Part:
This step is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in each of the two regimens, which will be evaluated in parallel. Participants will receive oral birabresib according to:
Continuous Dosing Regimen: continuous, once daily for 21 consecutive days (21-day cycles).
OR Days 1-7 Dosing Regimen: once daily on Days 1 to 7, repeated every 3 weeks (21-day cycles; 1 week ON/2 weeks OFF).
Participants will be sequentially assigned to Continuous Dosing Regimen or Days 1-7 Dosing Regimen according to the next available place and receive birabresib at escalating doses levels (DL). Cohorts of 3 participants will be treated, and an additional 3 participants will be treated at the first indication of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). MTD assessment will be based on the tolerability observed during the first 21 days of treatment.
Expansion Part:
The efficacy of birabresib in each of the five indications (i.e., Bromodomain-Nuclear Protein in Testis \[BRD-NUT\] midline carcinoma, triple negative breast cancer \[TNBC\], non-small cell lung cancer \[NSCLC\] harboring a rearrangement Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase \[ALK\] gene/fusion protein or Kirsten Ras \[KRAS\] mutation, castrate-resistant prostate cancer, and pancreatic ductal carcinoma) will be assessed in terms of response (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.1 \[RECIST v1.1\] or Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 2 \[PCWG2\]) using a selected regimen.

Study Objectives
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are associated with a dismal prognosis in localized and advanced phase with a major resistance to conventional chemotherapy agents. Virtually all malignant GISTs actually harbor activating mutations of the KIT pathway in the tumor cells, leading to ligand-independent activation of KIT tyrosine kinase activity and tumor growth in vitro. Glivec® inhibits KIT and exerts a major antitumor efficacy in vivo in patients with advanced GIST. Glivec® is generally pursued until progression or intolerance. The optimal duration of treatment with Glivec® remains unknown. The objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of Glivec® treatment interruption with reintroduction at progression in GIST patients.

| Study_NameA Phase II Study of Anlotinib in MTC Patients
| 1,029 |
Study Objectives
The different alternatives used since 1996 to treat metastatic colorectal cancer (MCRC) have increased the mean survival of these patients. This outstanding advance is due to the extended indications for resection of hepatic metastases and to the use of new chemotherapeutic drugs (fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan and oxaliplatin) and monoclonal antibodies (bevacizumab, cetuximab and panitumumab). However, none of these treatments is curative and the majority of patients are overwhelmed by the illness. The first line of treatment for MCRC is FOLFOX and the second, irinotecan plus cetuximab for patients with wild type KRAS gene (60%) with a 30% responses, and bevacizumab plus irinotecan with a 5-10% of responses, in patients with mutated KRAS (40%). A treatment with autologous dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with autologous tumour antigens is proposed as a third line of therapy. A randomized phase II trial would be performed, by selecting two groups of patients, one of them would be treated with the best supportive treatment and the other with DCs plus the best supportive treatment. The aim of the study would be to analyze the outcome after 4 months of treatment. In patients treated with DCs, IFN-γ spot forming cells and proliferative responses would be determined pre and post treatment in lymphocytes stimulated with autologous DCs pulsed with autologous tumour antigens. Pre and post treatment serum levels of IFN-γ, TNF-α, TGF-β e IL-12, would also be measured.

Study Objectives
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, also work in different ways to kill cancer cells or stop them from dividing. Lenalidomide may stop the growth of non-Hodgkin lymphoma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Giving lenalidomide together with rituximab and bendamustine hydrochloride may kill more cancer cells.
PURPOSE: This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of giving lenalidomide together with rituximab and bendamustine hydrochloride in treating patients with refractory or relapsed indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Study Objectives
Aim/Introduction:
The treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer includes generally a total thyroidectomy, followed by a radioiodine (131I)-therapy. Due to their ability to concentrate iodine, the salivary glands may present inflammation after administration of 131I, which may be symptomatic, may lead to longer-term chronic abnormalities, resulting in alterations in patients' nutrition and quality of life. The incidence of salivary dysfunctions after 131I-therapy varies considerably between studies due to methodological limitations. Also, the occurrence of these dysfunctions may be linked to increased uptake and/or retention of 131I in the salivary glands and/or individual radiosensitivity. However, no clinical or genetic factors have been identified to date to define patients at risk, allowing the delivered activity to be adapted to the expected risk of salivary dysfunctions. The aims of this study are to estimate the incidence of salivary dysfunctions after 131I-therapy, to characterize patients at risk of developing post-treatment dysfunctions using clinical, biomolecular and biochemical factors, and to validate a dosimetric method to calculate the dose received at the salivary gland level in order to analyse the dose response relationship between exposure of salivary glands to 131I and salivary dysfunctions.
Materials and Methods:
This prospective cohort aims to include 120 patients, candidates for a 131I-therapy in the context of their differentiated thyroid cancer, treated in the Nuclear Medicine department of the Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital (40 and 80 patients in a 1.1GBq and a 3.7GBq dose groups respectively). The follow-up is based on 3 scheduled visits: at inclusion (immediately before 131I therapy), 6months and 18months after treatment. For each visit, questionnaires on salivary disorders (validated French tool), quality of life (HAD-scale, MOS-SF-36), and nutritional status are administered. At inclusion and at T6, saliva samples and individual measurement of the salivary flow, without and with salivary glands stimulation, are performed.
External thermoluminescent dosimeters are placed opposite the salivary glands and at the sternal fork on the treatment's day before radioiodine administration and removed 5days after treatment. From dosimeters, a reconstitution of the dose received at the salivary glands will be established using physical and computational phantoms.
Genetic and epigenetic analyses will be performed to find biomarkers of predisposition to develop salivary disorders after 131I-therapy.
Expected results Inclusion of patients started in September 2020 and are still ongoing. Statistical analyses will study the links between salivary dysfunctions and the 131I dose received by the salivary glands, taking into account associated factors. In addition, impacts on the patients' quality of life will be analysed.

Study Objectives
This pilot clinical trial studies the side effects of pegaspargase when given together with combination chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Pegaspargase may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) together with pegaspargase may kill more cancer cells.

* LY3022855
* Vemurafenib
* Cobimetinib
Conditions: Melanoma
Intervention / Treatment:
DRUG: LY3022855, DRUG: Vemurafenib, DRUG: Cobimetinib
Location: United States
Study Design and Phases
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Phase: PHASE1, PHASE2
Primary Purpose: TREATMENT
Allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED
Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP
Masking: NONE | Inclusion Criteria:
* For enrollment to the phase I portion: participants must have a histologically confirmed melanoma with a BRAF V600E or BRAF V600K mutation (identified via NextGen sequencing using the DFCI/BWH OncoPanel or any CLIA-certified method) that is metastatic or unresectable and for which standard curative measures do not exist or are no longer effective.
* For enrollment to the phase II portion: participants must have a histologically confirmed melanoma with a BRAF V600E or BRAF V600K mutation (identified via NextGen sequencing using the DFCI/BWH OncoPanel or any CLIA-certified method) and cannot have received prior BRAF or MEK inhibitor therapy.
* Participants enrolling to the phase I portion of the trial must have evaluable or measurable disease (see Section 11 for definitions).
* Participants enrolling to the phase II portion of the trial must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for non-nodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) as >= 10 mm with spiral CT scan, MRI, or calipers by clinical exam. See Section 11 for the evaluation of measurable disease.
* Age >= 18 years. As no dosing or adverse event data are currently available in participants < 18 years, children are excluded from this study but will be eligible for future pediatric trials.
* ECOG performance status 0 - 1 (see APPENDIX A).
* Participants must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:
* Absolute neutrophil count >= 1.5 K/uL
* Platelets >= 100 K/uL
* Hemoglobin >= 9 g/dL
* Total bilirubin <= 1.5 × institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
* AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) <= 2.5 × institutional ULN
* Serum creatinine <= 1.5 × institutional ULN
* PT-INR <= 1.5 × institutional ULN (for participants on anticoagulation therapy, <= 1.5 × their baseline value)
* aPTT <= 1.5 × institutional ULN (for participants on anticoagulation therapy, <= 1.5 × their baseline value)
* Participants must have a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >= 50%.
* Participants must have a QTc of <= 470 msec on the screening EKG.
* The effects of LY3022855 on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason and because anti-cancer agents are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately. Men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of study participation, and 4 months after completion of LY3022855 administration.
* Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
* Participants must have archival tumor tissue available. Participants without archival tissue may be enrolled at the discretion of the principal investigator.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Participants who have had chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biologic therapy, major surgery, or another investigational agent within 3 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study.
* Participants who have not recovered to <= CTCAE grade 1 or baseline from toxicity as a result of previous cancer treatment prior to entering the study (with the exception of alopecia and peripheral neuropathy which can be <= grade 2).
* For enrollment to the phase II portion: participants who have received prior BRAF or MEK inhibitor therapy.
* Participants with known untreated brain metastases should be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events. Participants with a history of brain metastases that have been treated, are no longer taking corticosteroids, and have been stable on imaging for >= 4 weeks following the last date of treatment are permitted.
* History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to LY3022855, vemurafenib, or cobimetinib.
* Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
* Pregnant women are excluded from this study because LY3022855 is an anti-cancer agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with LY3022855, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with LY3022855. These potential risks may also apply to the other agents used in this study.
* Participants with a known history of HIV are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with LY3022855, vemurafenib, and cobimetinib with antiretroviral agents. In addition, these participants are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy. Appropriate studies will be undertaken in participants receiving combination antiretroviral therapy when indicated.
* Participants with a personal or family history of long QT syndrome.
* Participants with a history of a second primary malignancy. Exceptions include: patients with a history of malignancies that were treated curatively and have not recurred within 3 years prior to study entry; resected basal and squamous cell carcinomas of the skin, and completely resected carcinoma in situ of any type.
* Participants with impairment of GI function or GI disease that may significantly alter the absorption of vemurafenib and cobimetinib in the opinion of the treating investigator (e.g., ulcerative diseases, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, small bowel resection).
* Participants who are unable to swallow or retain oral medication.
* Participants that require co-administration of strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors, as these medications may alter vemurafenib and cobimetinib concentrations.
* Participants who require treatment with medications that are strong or moderate CYP3A inducers, as these medications may alter the concentration of cobimetinib.
* Participants with evidence of retinal pathology on ophthalmologic examination that is considered a risk factor for neurosensory retinal detachment/central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), retinal vein occlusion (RVO), or neovascular macular degeneration. | NCT_ID

Study Objectives
Cancer cachexia syndrome (CCS) is frequent, causing high morbidity and mortality in affected ones. The mechanism is catabolism caused by the tumour. CRP is a surrogate marker for catabolism. There are no effective treatment options against CCS. Lenalidomide, a derivate of thalidomide, is an immunomodulatory drug (IMiD®). One of its' main effect is a decrease in inflammatory cytokines. As CCS treatment, thalidomide has shown in a randomized controlled trial to stabilize lean body mass. The effect of lenalidomide in solid tumour patients was negligible although, there might be a decrease in tumour progression. However, even if lenalidomide may be uninteresting as an anticancer treatment it might affect CCS dynamics. Respective data are currently lacking. Therefore, a dose level where an anticancer effect could be expected was chosen (group A). Relevant anti-inflammatory effect may occur below the commonly used doses to achieve tumour control, which is expected to be the main anti-cachexia effect. Therefore, a second CRP-response guided treatment arm (group B) was chosen.
Hypothesis: To test whether the response rate under new standard basic cachexia management will be at the estimated 5% and with lenalidomide (either fixed dose or CRP-guided dose) in addition to basic cachexia management at least 25%.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of lenalidomide on lean body mass and handgrip strength in advanced solid tumour patients with inflammatory CCS.

Study Objectives
This randomized phase II trial studies how well irinotecan and cetuximab with or without bevacizumab work in treating patients with RAS wild-type colorectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body (locally advanced/metastatic) and cannot be removed by surgery. Irinotecan may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab and bevacizumab, may help the body?s immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving irinotecan and cetuximab with or without bevacizumab may work betting in treating patients with colorectal cancer.

Study Objectives
PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA (PCC)/ PARAGANGLIOMA are catecholamine secreting tumors with varied manifestations. Besides hypertension, PCC patients may have subclinical to overt cardiac and vascular dysfunction, which are important to recognize to minimize perioperative morbidity and mortality. Cardiovascular (CV) dysfunction can be in the form of hypertension, left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, dysrhythmias, angina and Myocardial infarction. Literature search revealed a few retrospective and a few prospective studies, including one prospective follow up study conducted at SGPGIMS to document CV changes in PCC. Our institutional study was the first to document the nature and extent of CV dysfunction and cardiomyopathy and their reversal after surgical cure. The studies revealed that PCC patients had significantly higher LV mass index, higher LV diastolic dysfunction, subclinical impaired LV systolic function. Earlier studies postulated apparent improvement in various cardiac indices even with selective α-blockade and continued after surgical cure, with near normalization at 3 -6 months postoperatively. Detailed cardiac and vascular evaluation in PCC patients can be of help in preoperative optimization of cardiac risk and may provide prognostic information The literature on PCC-mediated CV dysfunction and catecholamine cardiomyopathy is largely limited to case reports and retrospective studies, with few reports of their reversal after curative PCC operations. Whether the duration of disease influence the function of heart was not apparently addressed in earlier trials. Trials that established the differences in the degree of cardiac dysfunction between normotensive and hypertensive PCC patients involved smaller proportion of study subjects. Sub clinical changes in endomyocardium was presumed but not objectively assessed and hence its reversal after surgical cure is uncertain.
The aim of this research is to study the cardiac and vascular changes in Pheochromocytoma/ Paraganglioma patients and their reversal following curative surgery

This pilot clinical trial studies sirolimus, idarubicin, and cytarabine in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Sirolimus may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as idarubicin and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving sirolimus together with idarubicin and cytarabine may kill more cancer cells.
