You are asked to participate in this research study of a new immunotherapy combination with chemotherapy in metastatic triple negative breast cancer. Immunotherapy is a form of cancer therapy that activates a patient's immune system to fight the cancer in a patient's body. Unfortunately, only a limited number of patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer currently respond to FDA approved forms of immunotherapy. CDX-301 and CDX-1140 are two new immunotherapy drugs that are thought to kickstart the immune response against cancers even in patients who do not have an adequate immune response against their cancer to start with. Some studies suggest that combining these drugs with chemotherapy can most effectively kickstart this immune response and lead to improved clinical outcomes.
Have you been diagnosed with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma? If so you may be able to take part in a research study looking at the safety and efficacy of giving BMS-986393 to patients with multiple myeloma.
Have you been diagnosed with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study investigating if the study drug together with standard of care drug are safe and well tolerated, and whether two drugs are effective in treating prostate cancer, in comparison with standard of care alone.
The survey and its findings will help us understand attitudes around cancer family history and genetic testing among Black people. This information will be used to develop an educational curriculum to strive towards health equity for Black people diagnosed with or at higher risk of cancer and get Black people the best cancer care.
Have you been diagnosed with Lateralized Oropharyngeal Cancer . If so, you may be able to take part in a research study looking at the safety by using a special imaging study called lymph node mapping (lymphatic mapping) Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT-CT) compared to the usual treatment when radiotherapy is given .
Do you have pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that has come back after receiving standard therapy? If so, you may be able to participate in this gene therapy research study to learn more about using you own modified immune cells as possible treatment.
This study will evaluate the feasibility of using capillary blood samples collected with the Tasso device for analysis of CBC in diseased patients with leukemia, lymphoma, and/or other blood cell disorders.
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the risk of severe and fatal infusion-related reactions (IRR) in patients with multiple myeloma who are treated with their first 3 administrations of daratumumab. Examples of severe IRR include lung tightness, low oxygen levels, difficulty breathing, high blood pressure, racing heart, headache, and too much fluid in the lungs. No fatal IRRs have been observed in clinical trials of daratumumab. We are also doing this study to help us to identify potential risk factors for IRR.
Have you ever wondered what environmental toxins you are exposed to on a daily basis, and how it might affect your health? The STRIVE study is looking for volunteers who would like to provide blood, urine, and/or saliva, as well as home samples such as soil, dust, and/or water. In this study, we want to learn more about the environmental factors that contribute to advanced liver disease and liver cancer. We are looking for healthy volunteers and people with liver cirrhosis who live in either North Carolina or Georgia to take part.
Have you been diagnosed with breast cancer? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study for the collection of tumor specimens and genomic DNA from patients with early or metastatic breast cancer.
