The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of AMG 510 (Sotorasib) and panitumumab as compared to AMG 510 (Sotorasib) alone in patients with advanced/metastatic KRAS G12C mutated solid tumors.

The purpose of this trial is to compare the usual treatment alone to using immunotherapy (atezolizumab) plus the usual treatment in treating patients with peritoneal mesothelioma. The usual treatment consists of surgery or chemotherapy. Chemotherapy drugs, such as carboplatin and pemetrexed, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving atezolizumab with usual treatment may work better than usual treatment alone.

The purpose of this study is to develop preclinical models that include cell lines and patient derived xenografts (PDX) that include molecular characterization and testing novel therapies in these preclinical models. Molecular characterization may include short tandem DNA repeat; STR) and oncogenic/tumor suppressor gene mutation analyses to assure that the derived models have not been cross contaminated during the development process with other ongoing lines. Tissue microarray and immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis will also be performed on cell lines, PDX and patient tissues to identify potential molecular targets for therapy.

For patients who consented, patient clinical therapy response data may be correlated with preclinical response data in cell lines and PDX models. 

The purpose of this phase II ComboMATCH treatment trial is to test the usual treatment of chemotherapy (paclitaxel) plus ipatasertib in patients with solid tumor cancers that that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic), and has an AKT genetic change.  

The purpose of this study is to evaluate brigatinib alone for patients with brain metastases from anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), who have either not been treated previously with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeting ALK or who have had prior exposure to crizotinib.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of combining amivantamab and lazertinib (Arm A) versus single-agent osimertinib (Arm B) as first-line treatment in
participants with EGFR-mutated locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC not amenable to curative therapy. Combining amivantamab and lazertinib may lead to improved treatment outcomes through synergistic anti-EGFR activity, prevention of EGFR- or MET-based resistance to a third-generation EGFR TKI, and potential recruitment of Fc-bearing immune cells in the anti-tumor response. The contribution of amivantamab to the activity of the combination will be assessed by comparing the efficacy observed in the amivantamab and lazertinib combination arm (Arm A) with that in a lazertinib monotherapy arm (Arm C).

This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of trametinib when given together with combination chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving trametinib, combination chemotherapy, and radiation therapy may be a better treatment for non-small cell lung cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics, establish a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) regimen, and to assess the preliminary effectiveness of JNJ-61186372 in participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antineoplastic activity of BLU-667 administered orally in patients with medullary thyroid cancer, RET-altered NSCLC and other RET-altered solid tumors.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the utility of biomarker-based triage for study participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without prior systemic therapy. Study participants within groups defined by a biomarker-based classifier (gene expression profile [GEP] and tumor mutational burden [TMB]) will be randomized to receive pembrolizumab in combination with MK-4280 or lenvatinib. The primary hypotheses are as follows: In participants receiving pembrolizumab in combination with either MK-4280 or lenvatinib, the Objective Response Rate (ORR) will be 1) greater than 5% among participants with low GEP and low TMB, 2) greater than 20% among participants with low GEP and high TMB, 3) greater than 20% among participants with high GEP and low TMB, and 4) greater than 45% among participants with high GEP and high TMB.

This randomized, Phase I/III, multicenter, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab (anti-programmed death ligand 1 [anti-PD-L1]) in combination with carboplatin plus (+) etoposide compared with treatment with placebo + carboplatin + etoposide in treatment-naive participants with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either atezolizumab + carboplatin + etoposide or placebo + carboplatin + etoposide on 21 day-cycles for 4 cycles in the induction phase followed by maintenance with atezolizumab or placebo until disease progression (PD) as assessed by the investigator using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1). Treatment can be continued until persistent radiographic PD or symptomatic deterioration.

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose, the next recommended study dose, and the anti-tumor activity and safety of INC280 alone and in combination with erlotinib, when compared to standard platinum with pemetrexed chemotheapy in adult patients who have EGFR mutated and cMET amplified advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer,and have acquired resistance to prior EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

A phase II study to evaluate antitumor activity of oral cMET inhibitor INC280 in adult patients with EGFR wild-type, advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as measured by overall response rate (ORR). The study will also evaluate safety and pharmacokinetics of INC280.

This is a randomized, double-blinded study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant treatment with atezolizumab (MPDL3280A) or placebo in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with resectable Stage II, IIIA, or select IIIB non−small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) followed by open-label adjuvant atezolizumab or best supportive care and monitoring.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of tiragolumab plus atezolizumab and carboplatin and etoposide (CE) compared with placebo plus atezolizumab and CE in participants with chemotherapy-naive extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive one of the following treatment regimens during induction phase:- -Arm A: Tiragolumab plus atezolizumab and CE -Arm B: Placebo plus atezolizumab and CE Following the induction phase, participants will continue maintenance therapy with either atezolizumab plus tiragolumab (Arm A) or atezolizumab plus placebo (Arm B).

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness and tolerability of the combination of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab compared to Pemetrexed and Cisplatin or Carboplatin in patients with unresectable pleural mesothelioma.

This is an open-label, Phase 1b, platform study in subjects with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The study will be divided into 2 parts (Part 1a and Part 1b). Part 1a will evaluate a JAK inhibitor with JAK1 selectivity (INCB039110) in combination with an IDO1 inhibitor (epacadostat; INCB024360; Group A) and INCB039110 in combination with a PI3K-delta inhibitor (INCB050465; Group B) to determine the MTD or PAD and the recommended Part 1b doses for each combination. Once the recommended dose has been identified for each treatment group in Part 1a, subjects with advanced solid tumors will be enrolled into expansion cohorts based upon prior treatment history with a PD-1 pathway-targeted agent (Part 1b).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of AMG 510 (Sotorasib) and panitumumab as compared to AMG 510 (Sotorasib) alone in patients with advanced/metastatic KRAS G12C mutated solid tumors.

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multinational, and multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy of rovalpituzumab tesirine as maintenance therapy following first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.

The main purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of treatment with anetumab ravtansine versus vinorelbine  for progression free survival in patients with stage IV mesothelin overexpressing type of malignant pleural mesothelioma. Radiological tumor assessments will be performed at defined time points until the patient's disease progresses. Blood samples will be collected for safety, pharmacokinetic and biomarker analysis. Archival or fresh biopsy tissue may also be collected for central pathology review and biomarkers.

This randomized phase III trial studies how well nivolumab after surgery and chemotherapy work in treating patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and kill tumor cells remaining after surgery and standard of care chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to find out more about the side effects of rovalpituzumab tesirine (SC16LD6.5) and what doses of rovalpituzumab tesirine (SC16LD6.5) are safe for people with specific delta-like protein 3-expressing cancers.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ASP4132 and to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase 2 dose of ASP4132. The study will also determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ASP4132 and evaluate the preliminary antitumor activity.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate progression free survival, using independent radiologic review, of ASP8273 compared to erlotinib or gefitinib in patients with locally advanced, metastatic or unresectable stage IIIB/IV adenocarcinoma non-small cell lung cancer that has epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutations.

This study will also assess overall survival, overall response rate, progression free survival assessed by the investigator, disease control rate, duration of response, safety of ASP8273, quality of life, and patient-reported outcome parameters.

This research trial studies how well pre-test genetic education and remote genetic counseling works in communicating tumor profiling results to patients with advanced cancer. Web-based genetic education before receiving tumor profiling results and remote genetic counseling for patients with potential germline mutations may increase genetic knowledge and reduce distress for patients with advanced cancer.

This randomized phase III trial studies how well crizotinib works and compares it to placebo in treating patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been removed by surgery and has a mutation in a protein called ALK. Mutations, or changes, in ALK can make it very active and important for tumor cell growth and progression. Tumors with this mutation may respond to treatments that target the mutation, such as crizotinib. Crizotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the ALK protein from working. It is not yet known if crizotinib may be an effective treatment for treating non-small cell lung cancer with an ALK fusion mutation.

This phase II MATCH trial studies how well treatment that is directed by genetic testing works in patients with solid tumors or lymphomas that have progressed following at least one line of standard treatment or for which no agreed upon treatment approach exists. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with genetic abnormalities (such as mutations, amplifications, or translocations) may benefit more from treatment which targets their tumor's particular genetic abnormality. Identifying these genetic abnormalities first may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with solid tumors, lymphomas, or multiple myeloma.

The purpose of the trial is to establish the tolerability of HuMax-AXL-ADC in a mixed population of patients with specified solid tumors.

The aim of this project is to characterize a landscape of DNA alterations and proteomic changes in both biopsies and resected tumors of patients which have been diagnosed with aggressive/metastatic disease to identify molecular targets for which therapeutic drugs may exist.

The purpose of this study is to explore the detection of circulating tumor DNA, soluble immune markers, and the evaluation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC).

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and effectiveness in participants treated with concomitant chemoradiation therapy (cCRT) plus M7824 followed by M7824 compared to cCRT plus placebo followed by durvalumab.

The objective of this study is to collect tumor specimens (tumor tissues, matched normal tissue when possible, and 50 mL of blood) that may inform cancer biology to eventually improve outcomes for patients with cancer. Additionally, relevant specimens that were previously collected under an IRB approved protocol (13-000942), will be used with approval of the PI of that protocol and patient consent for participation in this protocol.

The collected tissue specimens will be used to develop preclinical models; i.e., cell lines, patient derived micro-cancer models as well as patient-derived xenograft models. In this study we may profile tumors using genomic and/or proteomic approaches to identify targetable alterations in tumor tissue from patients. To assure that the derived cell lines and micro-cancer models have not been cross contaminated during development with other models in development, DNA sequencing may be used. Using these preclinical models, we will test new therapies in vitro, or in vivo in mice in order to identify novel therapeutics as well as interrogate genes for their role in tumor biology. Guidance for molecular targeted therapy will involve gene analysis of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Results from these studies may provide the rationale for the design of future novel clinical trials. The evaluation of these preclinical models may lead to predictive value related to patient response to therapy as well as clinical trials. With consent, these models may be shared with other investigators internal or external to Mayo Clinic.

This research trial collects and stores tissue and blood samples from patients with cancer. Collecting and storing samples of tissue and blood from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help scientists create new and better models to learn about cancer and to test new cancer drugs.

This multi-institutional, phase 2 clinical trial is studying two doses of pembrolizumab administered prior to surgery (neoadjuvant therapy) and 4 doses administered after surgery (adjuvant therapy) for stage IB, II or IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. Pembrolizumab is a type of immunotherapy that may enhance the ability of the immune system to fight off cancer. The study will investigate the effects of pembrolizumab on the immune system and how certain immune cells, called TILs (tumor infiltrating lymphocytes), respond to pembrolizumab. Previous studies suggest that pembrolizumab could alter the immune cells in a way that the the immune cells identify cancer cells. Pembrolizumab has been approved for the treatment of advanced lung cancer, but is investigational in this setting.

The purpose of this randomized phase I/II trial is to study the side effects and how well pembrolizumab with or without anetumab ravtansine work in treating patients with mesothelin-positive pleural mesothelioma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as anetumab ravtansine and pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

The purpose of this study is to assess the side effects and best dose of ATR kinase inhibitor VX-970 when given together with whole brain radiation therapy for the treatment of patients who have non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from the original (primary) tumor to the brain.  VX-970 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving VX-970 together with radiation therapy may be a better treatment for non-small cell lung cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of IV administration of VX15/2503 in combination with a fixed dose of avelumab in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The dose escalation portion of the study will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of VX15/2503 administered in combination with avelumab.

The purpse of this study is to identify the target Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) population(s) that over express c-Met (c-Met+) best suited for Telisotuzumab Vedotin therapy in the second line or third line setting (Stage 1) and then to expand the group(s) to further evaluate effectiveness in the selected population(s) (Stage 2).

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ADI-PEG 20 combined with pemetrexed and cisplatin in patients with tumors requiring arginine such as advanced malignant pleural mesothelioma, advanced peritoneal mesothelioma (for dose escalation cohort only), non squamous non-small cell lung cancer (stage IIIB/IV), metastatic uveal melanoma, advanced liver cell cancer or recurrent high-grade glioma.

This study is being done to evaluate the immune system in patients with lung cancer or mesothelioma. We are going to analyze which genes are expressed by cells that fight infections to see if there are any relations to cancer.

This is a study of ADI-PEG 20 (pegylated arginine deiminase), an arginine degrading enzyme versus placebo in patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma with low argininosuccinate synthetase 1 expression. Malignant pleural mesothelioma have been found to require arginine, an amino acid. Thus the hypothesis is that by restricting arginine with ADI-PEG 20, the malignant pleural mesothelioma cells will starve and die.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of the combination of ramucirumab and pembrolizumab versus standard of care chemotherapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. I

The purpose of this study is to develop preclinical models that include cell lines and patient derived xenografts (PDX) that include molecular characterization and testing novel therapies in these preclinical models. Molecular characterization may include short tandem DNA repeat; STR) and oncogenic/tumor suppressor gene mutation analyses to assure that the derived models have not been cross contaminated during the development process with other ongoing lines. Tissue microarray and immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis will also be performed on cell lines, PDX and patient tissues to identify potential molecular targets for therapy.

For patients who consented, patient clinical therapy response data may be correlated with preclinical response data in cell lines and PDX models.
