AIRPanc - Ph2 Randomized Study Evaluating Patients with advanced Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

The purpose of this study is to combine standard radiation therapy with drugs that stimulate the body's immune system against cancer cells (by targeting the protein PD-1), while adding drugs which also target the pathway that the tumor uses to evade the immune system (the CD73 and A2a/b pathways).The main goal of this study is to find out if study treatment with zimberelimab (an antibody which binds the protein PD-1) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) alone or in combination with quemliclustat (a drug which blocks CD73), with or without etrumadenant (a drug which blocks the A2a/b) given before surgery is safe and if it can further increase the immune response against the tumor.

Iberdomide Versus Observation Off Therapy After Idecabtagene Vicleucel CAR-T for Multiple Myeloma

This study is being done to answer the following questions: 1) Can the study drug iberdomide be given after idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel (Abecma)) CAR-T in multiple myeloma safely and with acceptably few and mild side effects? 2) For how long does multiple myeloma stay under control (in remission) if patients receive the study drug iberdomide after they have received ide-cel (Abecma) CAR-T? We are doing this study because we want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your multiple myeloma. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for multiple myeloma.
