Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Response in Solid Tumors Using a Live Tumor Diagnostic Platform

This study is being done to collect tissue samples to test how accurately a tumor response platform, Elephas, can predict clinical response across multiple types of immunotherapies, chemoimmunotherapy and tumor types.

Yttrium Y-90 Radioembolization in Treating Patients With Metastatic Liver Cancer

This clinical trial studies the side effects and best way to perform yttrium Y-90 radioembolization in treating patients with liver cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Yttrium Y-90 radioembolization is a therapy that injects radioactive microspheres directly into an artery that feeds liver tumors to cut off their blood supply. Performing yttrium Y-90 radioembolization in a single session may make treatment faster, minimize patient travel, and decrease the overall cost of the procedure.

Intravital Microscopy in Human Solid Tumors

This study will investigate the tumor-associated vasculature of patients with solid tumors. The investigators will use a technology known as intravital microscopy (IVM) in order to visualize in real-time the vessels associated with solid tumors. The IVM observations may determine if an individual patient's tumor vessels would be amenable to receiving systemic therapy, based on the functionality of the vessels.

Enhanced Outpatient Symptom Management to Reduce Acute Care Visits Due to Chemotherapy-Related Adverse Events

This clinical trial studies if enhanced outpatient symptom management with telemedicine and remote monitoring can help reduce acute care visit due to chemotherapy-related adverse events. Receiving telemedicine and remote monitoring may help patients have better outcomes (such as fewer avoidable emergency room visits and hospitalizations, better quality of life, fewer symptoms, and fewer treatment delays) than patients who receive usual care.
