This study is called a screening study and the purpose of this study to find better ways to diagnose and treat leukemia that has come back after treatment or difficult to treat. Bone marrow, blood, and medical information about cancer and treatment will be collected. The results from this screening study may give other information about leukemia that is…
Pancreatic cancer is a deadly disease and the best hope for improving the chances of survival is to find it early. Some patients, called "high risk", have an inherited predisposition to pancreatic cancer. Certain medical centers have started programs where "high risk patients" undergo testing, such as receiving imaging scans, to look for…
This study will develop a data registry of patients diagnosed with uveal melanoma (UM). This registry will provide data that will be used to support the development of novel therapies for this disease. In this study, we are focused on trying to better understand how uveal melanoma behaves and how it is treated at different medical centers around the country.
This is a Phase 1 study of a drug called uproleselan. We are testing new experimental drugs such as uproleselan in the hopes of finding a treatment that may be effective against acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome or mixed phenotype acute leukemia that has come back or that has not responded to standard therapy. This study looks at how well…
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of Quizartinib that can be given safely with chemotherapy in children and young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) which has come back or has not responded to the standard therapy. Quizartinib will be given by mouth once a day from Day 6 through Day 28. It will be given in combination with…
The purpose of this study is to find out if the drugs called Nivolumab and 5-Azacytidine can be given safely in children and young adults with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) which has come back after treatment or has not responded to standard therapy. These drugs are thought to work by turning on genes that limit the growth of cancer cells. The study drugs…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe and effective the NanoKnife System is at treating Stage 3 pancreatic adenocarcinoma. This is registry study and therefore, the NanoKnife System is not being used for study purposes. The safety and efficacy of this system will be evaluated by comparing survival rates, pain ratings, and number of adverse…
The purpose of this study is to learn which treatment works best in patients with pancreatic cancer. The study explores multiple treatment combinations. A study drug called atezolizumab may be combined with other drugs such as cobimetinib, PEGPH20, and BL-8040. Patients may also be assigned to receive standard chemotherapy treatment.
The purpose of this study is to find out which doses of talimogene laherparepvec (T-Vec) can be given safely to patients with pancreatic cancer that is either too big to be taken out by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. The study will also see if T-Vec can cause tumor shrinkage or prevent its growth. To find out which doses are safe, all…
This is a Phase 1 multicenter study of Decitabine (DEC) and Vorinostat (VOR) followed by the standard chemotherapy drugs (Fludarabine, Cytarabine and G-CSF (FLAG)). The study treatment is considered experimental because it is not approved by the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)…
You are invited to join voluntarily in a clinical research study to find out if the drug LXS196 alone or in combination with HDM201 is safe and has beneficial effects in people who have metastatic uveal melanoma. The purpose of this study is to determine the highest dose of LXS196 that can be given safely without unacceptable side effects as a single drug…
This research study is being done to see if the study drug, IMCgp100, works and is safe as treatment for subjects with uveal melanoma who also test positive for HLA-A*0201. In this study IMCgp100 will be compared to three standard treatments: dacarbazine (a chemotherapy drug), ipilimumab (an immunotherapy drug), or pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy drug).…
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, intermittent dosing of the medication Selumetinib will have on you and your uveal melanoma. Selumetinib is a medication that blocks (or turns off) MEK, a protein activated in some uveal melanoma cells. Selumetinib is a MEK inhibitor. Blocking MEK may stop your cancer from growing.
This research study is being conducted to see if a new treatment using a study drug called Olaparib given after platinum based chemotherapy treatments can reduce the risk of pancreatic cancer from growing back. Participants will receive either Olaparib or placebo (no contains active medication) and will stay on the research study for as long as they are not…
This is a Phase I study of a weekly intra-patient escalation dose regimen with IMCgp100 in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM). To help decide whether or not patients can take part in a research study looking at a new form of treatment for advanced uveal melanoma, their blood need to first be tested to determine their Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA…
The purpose of this study is to test whether GVAX pancreas vaccine and CRS-207 together are safe and work better than chemotherapy to treat individuals with advanced pancreatic cancer who have received at least one prior chemotherapy treatment for metastatic cancer. This study will also look at whether CRS-207 alone is safe and works better than…
The purpose of the treatment part of the study is to find out what effects drug crizotinib has, good and/or bad on people with "high risk" uveal melanoma after surgery or radiation for the eye. It is thought that giving crizotinib to patients with "high risk" uveal melanoma can lower the chance the cancer will come back. Uveal melanoma…
The purpose of this study is evaluate the benefits and safety of using the combination of drugs, AEB071 and BYL719 to treat patients with an advanced form of uveal melanoma. The study will have two parts. The first part twill test different dose levels of each drug.Once the highest safe dose level is found, another group of patients will be treated at that…
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of pevonedistat that can be given safely with chemotherapy in children with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) that has either come back or has not responded to the standard therapy. Pevonedistat works by blocking some of the enzymes that are needed for cell growth.
