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 Amivantamab in Addition to Standard of Care Agents (SOC) Compared With SOC Alone in Participants With Recurrent/Metastatic Head and Neck Cancer
Head/Neck
Head/Neck
The purpose of this study is to compare anti-tumor activity of amivantamab in addition to pembrolizumab and carboplatin versus pembrolizumab, 5-fluorouracil (FU), and platinum therapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) in participants with refractory/metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). HNSCC is a type of cancer that develops in the head and neck regions, including the outer tissue layer of the mouth and throat. This study will focus on participants with HNSCC who are treatment-naive (have not received prior treatment) in the R/M setting.

A Study of BMS-986340 as Monotherapy and as Combination Therapy in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors
Multiple Cancer Types
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and recommended dose(s) of BMS-986340 as monotherapy and in combination with nivolumab, docetaxel, or Pumitamig in participants with advanced solid tumors. This study is a first-in-human (FIH) study of BMS-986340 in participants with advanced solid tumors.

FORTIFI-HN01: A Study of Ficerafusp Alfa (BCA101) or Placebo in Combination With Pembrolizumab in First-Line PD-L1-pos, R or M HNSCC
Head/Neck
Head/Neck
Ficerafusp alfa is directed against two targets, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) and Transforming Growth Factor beta (TGF-).
This study intends to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ficerafusp alfa in combination with pembrolizumab versus placebo with pembrolizumab in 1L PD-L1-positive, recurrent or metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC).

A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of TOS-358 in Women With HR+ HER2- Breast Cancer
Multiple Cancer Types
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TOS-358 in women with HR+ HER2- metastatic breast cancer whose tumors have a mutation in PIK3CA and who meet all other study enrollment criteria. The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. Phase 1a: what is the maximum tolerated dose and recommended dose for phase 2?
2. Phase 1a: how safe and tolerable is TOS-358 at different dose levels when taken orally once or twice per day?
3. Phase 1b: how safe and effective is TOS-358 when given with standard of care medicines for HR+HER2- metastatic breast cancer (fulvestrant and CDK4/6i)

Targeted Therapy Directed by Genetic Testing in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced or Advanced Solid Tumors, The ComboMATCH Screening Trial
Multiple Cancer Types
This ComboMATCH patient screening trial is the gateway to a coordinated set of clinical trials to study cancer treatment directed by genetic testing. Patients with solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and have progressed on at least one line of standard systemic therapy or have no standard treatment that has been shown to prolong overall survival may be candidates for these trials. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with some genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit from treatment that targets that particular genetic mutation. ComboMATCH is designed to match patients to a treatment that may work to control their tumor and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with locally advanced or advanced solid tumors.

Photobiomodulation in Head and Neck Cancer-Related Chronic Lymphedema
Head/Neck
Head/Neck
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) as a treatment for breast cancer-related arm lymphedema (BCRL) in 2006. The investigators conducted two pilot clinical trials. Results demonstrated the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of PBMT for the treatment of chronic lymphedema in head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors. The objective of this study is to further investigate and confirm the positive effects of PBMT on HNC-related chronic lymphedema.
