KaCrole Higgins was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020. “In May 2020, I found a lump in my breast. I cried. By June, it was diagnosed as breast cancer, triple positive, stage 1A. While getting this cancer diagnosis was devastating, it also became an opportunity. Suddenly, the cancer gave me clarity. It gave me clarity about what was important, what was good in my life, what was toxic in my life, and what I needed to do.” Click below to read more of KaCrole’s story |
If Landon Ryan had been diagnosed with bilateral retinoblastoma 10, 20 or 30 years ago, she might not be here today with nearly perfect vision.Thanks to recent improvements in the treatment for this rare form of cancer that almost exclusively affects children under the age of 5, the diagnosis had the power to change Landon’s life when she was 11 months old, but not to take it — or her eyesight.

A Study of Lower Radiotherapy Dose to Treat Children With CNS Germinoma
This phase II trial studies how well lower dose radiotherapy after chemotherapy (Carboplatin \& Etoposide) works in treating children with central nervous system (CNS) germinomas. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. Researchers want to see if lowering the dose of standard radiotherapy (RT) after chemotherapy can help get rid of CNS germinomas with fewer long-term side effects.

TPIV100 and Sargramostim for the Treatment of HER2 Positive, Stage II-III Breast Cancer in Patients With Residual Disease After Chemotherapy and Surgery
Breast
Breast
This phase II trial studies how well TPIV100 and sargramostim work in treating patients with HER2 positive, stage II-III breast cancer that has residual disease after chemotherapy prior to surgery. It also studies why some HER2 positive breast cancer patients respond better to chemotherapy in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab. TPIV100 is a type of vaccine made from HER2 peptide that may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells that express HER2. Sargramostim increases the number of white blood cells in the body following chemotherapy for certain types of cancer and is used to alert the immune system. It is not yet known if TPIV100 and sargramostim will work better in treating patients with HER2 positive, stage II-III breast cancer.

Testing the Anti-cancer Drug, Glofitamab, in Patients With Mantle Cell Lymphoma (A Type of Blood Cancer) Whose Disease Returned After CAR-T Cell Therapy
Lymphoma
Lymphoma
This phase II trial tests the safety and side effects of glofitamab and obinutuzumab and how well they work in treating patients with mantle cell lymphoma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory) after receiving CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. CAR T-cell therapy is a form of immunotherapy where the immune system cell, T-cell, is changed to attack cancer cells. Glofitamab is a bispecific antibody that can bind to two different antigens at the same time. Glofitamab binds to CD3, a protein found on T cells (a type of white blood cell), and CD20 a protein found on B cells (another type of white blood cell) and some lymphoma cells. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Obinutuzumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Giving glofitamab and obinutuzumab may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma after receiving CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy.

DOC1021 Dendritic Cell Immunotherapy for Treatment of Newly Diagnosed Adult Glioblastoma (GBM)
Neuro-Oncology
Neuro-Oncology
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if DOC1021 + pIFN alongside standard of care (SOC) will improve survival in adult patients newly diagnosed with glioblastoma (IDH-wt). It will also evaluate the safety of DOC1021 + pIFN. Researchers will compare DOC1021 dendritic cell immunotherapy regimen added to SOC compared to SOC treatment alone.
Participants in the DOC1021 + pIFN + SOC arm will:
* Take filgrastim subcutaneously x 5 doses and subsequently undergo a leukapheresis collection
* Undergo ultrasound guided perinodal DOC1021 injections every 2 weeks for a total of 3 doses
* Receive subcutaneous pIFN injections weekly for a total of 6 doses in parallel with the DOC1021 injections
Both arms of the trial will:
\- Visit the clinic regularly to assess quality of life, symptoms, medication use, imaging, bloodwork, and to receive SOC treatment with surgery, temozolomide chemotherapy and radiation
