Symptom Monitoring for Patients with Hospital-Diagnosed Advanced Lung Cancer

The purpose of this study is to understand how monitoring symptoms at home after lung cancer diagnosis could impact quality of care and the likelihood of returning to the hospital. This study will also help us understand whether symptom monitoring in patients with advanced lung cancer is helpful for patients and the clinical teams who care for them.

Cognitive and Brain Functioning after Treatment for Breast Cancer

Have you recently been diagnosed with breast cancer but have not yet started treatment (other than surgery)? You may be able to take part in the UNC CogMAP study. In this study, we want to learn more about cognitive and brain function before and after cancer treatment. This will help us to better understand risk factors for experiencing cognitive difficulties during and after treatment.

Ph3 Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo with Atezolizumab and Bevacizumab

This study is assessing the effectiveness and safety of tiragolumab, an anti-TIGIT monoclonal antibody, when given with atezolizumab and bevacizumab as a first-line treatment for unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). TIGIT is thought to play an important role in HCC's response to immunotherapy treatments such as atezolizumab. This study will assess whether the addition of tiragolumab to atezolizumab and bevacizumab will improve response and clinical outcomes.

A071701 Genomically-guided treatment trial in brain metastases

The purpose of this study is to test good and bad effects of different drugs against metastatic brain tumors with altered genes. This trial is trying to see if tumor genetic testing would be helpful at guiding treatment in patients such as you. Researchers have looked at the DNA material (genes) that can be affected in brain metastases and have found several genes that are altered, or mutated. There are medications that target these genes. We are doing this study because we want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your metastatic cancer. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for your metastatic cancer.
