Combining Radiation Therapy with Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck

This phase III trial compares pembrolizumab with radiation therapy to pembrolizumab without radiation therapy (standard therapy) given after pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Pembrolizumab is a type of immunotherapy that stimulates the body's immune system to fight cancer cells. Pembrolizumab targets and blocks a protein called PD-1 on the surface of certain immune cells called T-cells. Blocking PD-1 triggers the T-cells to find and kill cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high-powered rays to kill cancer cells. Giving radiation with pembrolizumab may be more effective at treating patients with metastatic head and neck cancer than the standard therapy of giving pembrolizumab alone.

Study of Safety and Tolerability of BCA101 Monotherapy and in Combination Therapy in Patients With EGFR-driven Advanced Solid Tumors

Phase I

The investigational drug to be studied in this protocol, BCA101, is a first-in-class compound
that targets both EGFR with TGF. Based on preclinical data, this bifunctional antibody may
exert synergistic activity in patients with EGFR-driven tumors.

Testing What Happens When an Immunotherapy Drug (Pembrolizumab) is Given by Itself Compared to the Usual Treatment of Chemotherapy with Radiation after Surgery for Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Head/Neck

This phase II trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab alone compared to the usual approach (chemotherapy [cisplatin and carboplatin] plus radiation therapy) after surgery in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back (recurrent) or patients with a second head and neck cancer that is not from metastasis (primary). Radiation therapy uses high energy radiation or protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells. Carboplatin is also 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 cancer cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving pembrolizumab alone after surgery may work better than the usual approach in shrinking recurrent or primary head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

RBS2418 Evaluation in Subjects With Unresectable or Metastatic Tumors

Phase I

RBS2418 (investigational product) is a specific immune modulator, working through
ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase I (ENPP1), designed to lead to anti-tumor
immunity by increasing endogenous 2'-3'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine
monophosphate (cGAMP) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP levels) and reducing adenosine
production in the tumors. RBS2418 has the potential to be an important therapeutic option for
subjects both as monotherapy and in combination with checkpoint blockade. This study is an
open-label, multi-site Phase 1a/1b study of RBS2418, a selective ENPP1 inhibitor, in
combination with pembrolizumab or as a monotherapy in subjects with advanced unresectable,
recurrent or metastatic tumors.

Study of INBRX-106 and INBRX-106 in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Subjects With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors (Hexavalent OX40 Agonist)

Phase I

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, non-randomized, 4-part Phase 1 trial to determine the safety
profile and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D)
of INBRX 106 administered as a single agent or in combination with the anti-PD-1 checkpoint
inhibitor (CPI) pembrolizumab (Keytruda).

Split Course Adaptive Radiation Therapy and Immunotherapy with or without Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Stage IV or Locally Advanced Lung Cancer, SiCARIO Study

Multiple Cancer Types

This phase I/II trial tests the safety and efficacy of split-course adaptive radiation therapy in combination with immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with stage IV lung cancer or lung cancer that that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Radiation therapy is a standard cancer treatment that uses high energy rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Split-course adaptive radiation therapy uses patient disease response to alter the intensity of the radiation therapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies such as pembrolizumab, ipilimumab or nivolumab may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs like carboplatin, pemetrexed, and paclitaxel work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving split-course adaptive radiation therapy with standard treatments like immunotherapy and chemotherapy may be more effective at treating stage IV or locally advanced lung cancer than giving them alone.
