NBTXR3 With or Without Cetuximab in locally advanced head & neck squamous cell carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to find out if an investigational medication (NBTXR3) could help elderly patients with locally advanced head & neck squamous cell carcinoma who are otherwise ineligible to receive platinum-based chemotherapy. This study will help to determine the recommended dose/s of NBTXR3. The study medication is injected directly into the tumor and is activated by radiation therapy in combination with anti-PD1 therapy.

NRG-GY026: Testing the addition of HERCEPTIN HYLECTA or PHESGO to the usual chemotherapy for HER2 positive endometrial serous carcinoma or carcinosarcoma

Have you been diagnosed with uterine cancer called endometrial serous carcinoma or carcinosarcoma? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study to test if adding a drug or drugs that target HER2 proteins in addition to the usual combination of chemotherapy drugs could prevent your cancer from returning or shrink your cancer.

DORA

The purpose of this research is to compare any good and bad effects of using radium-223 along with docetaxel chemotherapy treatment versus using docetaxel alone. The addition of radium223 to docetaxel could be a better cancer treatment than just docetaxel alone, but it could also cause additional side effects. This study will allow the researchers to know whether this different approach is better, the same, or worse than the usual approach.
