This phase II trial studies the effect of hypofractionated radiotherapy followed by surgery in treating patients with soft tissue sarcoma. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Giving hypofractionated radiotherapy followed by surgery may allow patients with sarcomas to be treated in a much more rapid and convenient fashion.

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, first-in-human, dose-escalation and expansion study of
SRF114, a monoclonal antibody that targets CCR8, as a monotherapy in patients with solid
tumors.

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.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of a combination of gabapentin and ketamine and to see how well it works to prevent acute and chronic pain in patients receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy (chemoradiation) for head and neck cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Gabapentin is a medication that is commonly used to treat nerve related pain. Specifically, it has been used to treat pain involving the mouth, throat and nasal passages in head and neck cancer patients treated with radiation. Ketamine is a type of general anesthetic that blocks pathways to the brain involved with sensing pain. This trial may help doctors determine how patients tolerate the combination of gabapentin and ketamine and to find the correct dosing for ketamine in those taking gabapentin. This will be the basis for a future, larger study to look at how effective this combination is at reducing and/or preventing pain in head and neck cancer patients.

This open label ascending dose study is designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics
(PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of AV-380 in metastatic cancer patients with
Cachexia. AV-380 is an immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) intended to bind
circulating human growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15), a cytokine involved in
cancer-induced cachexia.

This study will have two Phases: Phase 1a and Phase 1b. The goal of Phase 1a of this clinical
study is to learn more about the safety, tolerability and dosing of study drug KITE-197, in
participants with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (r/rLBCL). The goal of Phase
1b of this clinical study is learn about the effectiveness of the recommended dose of
KITE-197 in participants with r/r LBCL.

The primary objectives of this study are:

Phase 1a: To evaluate the safety of KITE-197 in participants with r/r LBCL and determine the
target dose level for Phase 1b.

Phase 1b: To evaluate the efficacy of KITE-197 in participants with r/r LBCL as measured by
the complete remission (CR) rate.

This is an umbrella study evaluating the efficacy and safety of multiple treatment
combinations in participants with metastatic or inoperable locally advanced breast cancer.

The study will be performed in two stages. During Stage 1, four cohorts will be enrolled in
parallel in this study:

Cohort 1 will consist of Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive participants who have
received no prior systemic therapy for metastatic or inoperable locally advanced
triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) (first-line [1L] PD-L1+ cohort).

Cohort 2 will consist of participants who had disease progression during or following 1L
treatment with chemotherapy for metastatic or inoperable locally-advanced TNBC and have not
received cancer immunotherapy (CIT) (second-line [2L] CIT-naive cohort).

Cohort 3 will consist of participants with locally-advanced or metastatic HR+, HER2-negative
disease with PIK3CA mutation who may or may not have had disease progression during or
following previous lines of treatment for metastatic disease (HR+cohort).

Cohort 4 will consist of participants with locally-advanced or metastatic HER2+ /HER2-low
disease with PIK3CA mutation who had disease progression on standard-of-care therapies (HER2+
/HER2-low cohort).

In each cohort, eligible participants will initially be assigned to one of several treatment
arms (Stage 1). In addition, participants in the 2L CIT-nave cohort who experience disease
progression, loss of clinical benefit, or unacceptable toxicity during Stage 1 may be
eligible to continue treatment with a different treatment combination (Stage 2), provided
Stage 2 is open for enrollment.

The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of volrustomig compared
to observation in participants with unresected locally advanced head and neck squamous cell
carcinoma (LA-HNSCC) who have not progressed after receiving definitive concurrent
chemoradiotherapy (cCRT).

This study is researching an experimental drug called odronextamab, referred to as study
drug. The study is focused on participants with previously untreated follicular lymphoma (a
type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma or NHL).

This study will be made up of two parts: Part 1 (non-randomized) and Part 2 (randomized -
controlled). The aim of Part 1 of the study is to see how safe and tolerable the study drug
is. The aim of Part 2 of the study is to see how the study drug works compared to rituximab
and chemotherapy (the current standard of care for NHL). Standard of care means the usual
medication expected and used when receiving treatment for a condition.

The study is looking at several other research questions, including:

- What side effects may happen from taking the study drug

- How much study drug is in your blood at different times

- Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less
effective or could lead to side effects)

- The impact from the study drug on your quality of life and ability to complete routine
daily activities.

Patients will be registered prior to, during or at the completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy
(Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours and Carboplatin AUC 6 IV on Day 1 every 21 days for 3-4
cycles). Registered patients who progress during neoadjuvant chemotherapy will not be
eligible for iCRS and will be removed from the study.

Following completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, interval cytoreductive surgery (iCRS) will
be performed in the usual fashion in both arms. Patients will be randomized at the time of
iCRS (iCRS must achieve no gross residual disease or no disease >1.0 cm in largest diameter)
to receive HIPEC or no HIPEC. Patients randomized to HIPEC (Arm A) will receive a single dose
of cisplatin (100mg/m2 IP over 90 minutes at 42 C) as HIPEC. After postoperative recovery
patients will receive standard post-operative platinum-based combination chemotherapy.
Patients randomized to surgery only (Arm B) will receive postoperative standard chemotherapy
after recovery from surgery.

Both groups will receive an additional 2-3 cycles of platinum-based combination chemotherapy
per institutional standard (Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours and Carboplatin AUC 6 IV on
Day 1 every 21 days for 2-3 cycles) for a maximum total of 6 cycles of chemotherapy
(neoadjuvant plus post-operative cycles) followed by niraparib individualized dosing until
progression or 36 months (if no evidence of disease).
