A Phase 1 Study of M032 (NSC 733972), a Genetically Engineered HSV-1 Expressing IL- 12, in Patients with Recurrent/Progressive Glioblastoma Multiforme, Anaplastic Astrocytoma, or Gliosarcoma

A Phase 1 Study of M032 (NSC 733972), a Genetically Engineered HSV-1 Expressing IL- 12, in Patients with Recurrent/Progressive Glioblastoma Multiforme, Anaplastic Astrocytoma, or Gliosarcoma Summary: Gliomas are the most common brain tumor, with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) being one of the most fatal and treatment-resistant cancers. Survival and time to progression have changed minimally in […]

Mitochondrial-Targeted Gamitrinib for Cancer Therapy

Mitochondrial-Targeted Gamitrinib for Cancer Therapy Summary: There have been impressive clinical responses in select tumors to targeted therapy, but for most cancers the gains are short-lived, and the cancer progresses. It has been found that a protein called Hsp90 chaperone is over abundant in cancer cells. The Hsp90 chaperones are responsible for stabilizing proteins and […]

Impact of Cytoreductive Radical Prostatectomy on Oncologic and Quality of Life Outcome in Men with Newly Diagnosed Metastatic Prostate Cancer

Impact of Cytoreductive Radical Prostatectomy on Oncologic and Quality of Life Outcome in Men with Newly Diagnosed Metastatic Prostate Cancer Clinical Trial Summary: Prostate is the second most common non-skin cancer diagnosed and the second leading cause of cancer death in men. Furthermore, approximately 16% of prostate cancer patients present with late-stage disease. There is […]

LLS Pediatric Acute Leukemia (PedAL) Master Clinical Trial

LLS Pediatric Acute Leukemia (PedAL) Master Clinical Trial Summary: Therapeutic options for relapsed AML or some subsets of ALL remain limited. However, recent large-scale discovery efforts using next generation sequencing (NGS) methods have identified recurrent mutations, cellular signaling, and cell surface antigen targets for new therapies. This is a master trial that will screen each […]

A Phase I Study of Venetoclax in Combination with Cytotoxic Chemotherapy, Including Calaspargase Pegol, for Children, Adolescents and Young Adults with High-Risk Hematologic Malignancies

A Phase I Study of Venetoclax in Combination with Cytotoxic Chemotherapy, Including Calaspargase Pegol, for Children, Adolescents and Young Adults with High-Risk Hematologic Malignancies Summary: Effective treatment for children and young adults with relapsed/refractory MDS, MDS-associated AML (MDS/AML), treatment related MDS/AML, and relapsed/refractory high-risk ALL/LBL continues to be a major clinical challenge with poor long-term […]

PARPAML: A Phase I Protocol for Relapsed Pediatric AML to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of the PARP Inhibitor Talazoparib in Combination with Chemotherapy

PARPAML: A Phase I Protocol for Relapsed Pediatric AML to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of the PARP Inhibitor Talazoparib in Combination with Chemotherapy Summary: Currently, the survival of children diagnosed with AML sits at less than 70%. Despite 80 to 90% of patients achieving first complete remission, 30 to 40% will relapse and outcomes […]

Serial Response and Biomarker-Guided Steroid Taper for Children with GVHD

Serial Response and Biomarker-Guided Steroid Taper for Children with GVHD Summary: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplants (stem cell transplant from a donor) [HSCT] are an important treatment for high-risk hematologic (blood) malignancies. However, these transplants can result in graft versus host disease (GVHD) which targets the skin, liver, and GI tract. This occurs in about […]

Exploiting Mutant IDH1/2-induced DNA Repair Defects in Pediatric Glioma to improve outcomes

Exploiting Mutant IDH1/2-induced DNA Repair Defects in Pediatric Glioma to improve outcomes Summary: Pediatric gliomas are the most commonly encountered tumor types in children and also contribute to the most cancer related deaths in children. There is an urgent need for high-grade gliomas which lack any meaningful standard of care. IDH1/2 gene mutations are common […]

A phase II pilot trial to estimate survival after a non-total body irradiation (TBI) based conditioning regimen in patients diagnosed with B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who are pre-allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) next-generation-sequence (NGS) minimal residual disease (MRD) negative

A phase II pilot trial to estimate survival after a non-total body irradiation (TBI) based conditioning regimen in patients diagnosed with B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who are pre-allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) next-generation-sequence (NGS) minimal residual disease (MRD) negative Summary: Total body irradiation (TBI) in hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) has been a key element […]

Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) treatment for immune checkpoint inhibitor–mediated colitis

Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) treatment for immune checkpoint inhibitor–mediated colitis Summary: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have become paradigm-shifting therapies for a variety of cancers. However, these agents are associated with various toxicities that affect the skin, GI tract, liver, lungs, endocrine system, and nervous system. Immune-mediated colitis (IMC) is among the most encountered severe toxicities […]
