SX-682 and Atezolizumab for the Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic, Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase II trial tests how well SX-682 and atezolizumab works for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic), and has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). SX-682 blocks proteins that may be able to stimulate the immune system to kill and eliminate tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving SX-682 and atezolizumab may be effective for the treatment of advanced or metastatic, recurrent NSCLC.

Testing the Addition of an Antibody to Standard Chemoradiation Followed by the Antibody for One Year to Standard Chemoradiation Followed by One Year of the Antibody in Patients With Unresectable Stage III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase III trial studies how well an antibody (durvalumab) with chemotherapy and radiation therapy (chemoradiation) works in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This study is being done to see if adding durvalumab to standard chemoradiation followed by additional durvalumab can extend patients life and/or prevent the tumor from coming back compared to the usual approach of chemoradiation alone followed by durvalumab.

NBTXR3 and Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Inoperable Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase I trial investigates the best dose and side effects of NBTXR3 when given together with radiation therapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be treated by surgery (inoperable) and has come back (recurrent). NBTXR3 is a radio-enhancer designed to increase the radiotherapy energy dose deposition inside tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving NBTXR3 and radiation therapy may increase radiation-dependent tumor cell killing without increasing the radiation exposure of healthy surrounding tissues.

Paclitaxel Therapeutic Drug Monitoring in Cancer Patients

The goals of this prospective, observational cohort study are to determine the feasibility of implementing paclitaxel therapeutic drug monitoring for cancer patients and explore the relationship between paclitaxel drug exposure and the development of neuropathic symptoms. This trial studies if paclitaxel can be consistently measured in the blood of patients with solid tumors undergoing paclitaxel treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Nerve damage is one of the most common and severe side effects of paclitaxel. The ability to consistently measure paclitaxel in the blood may allow doctors to control the dose of paclitaxel, so that enough chemotherapy is given to kill the cancer, but the side effect of nerve damage is reduced.

Atezolizumab and Cobimetinib in Treating Patients With Metastatic, Recurrent, or Refractory Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase II trial studies how well atezolizumab and cobimetinib work in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic), has come back (recurrent), or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cobimetinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called BRAF. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells. Giving atezolizumab and cobimetinib may work better in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Phase 1/2 Trial of S241656 in Selected RAS/MAPK Mutation- Positive Malignancies

BDTX-4933-101 is a first-in-human, open-label, Phase 1/2 dose escalation, dose optimization and expansion study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of S241656 as monotherapy and in combination with other anti-cancer therapies in participants with selected advanced malignancies. The study population for the Dose Escalation part of the study comprises adults with recurrent advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, and other solid tumors harboring KRAS, HRAS, NRAS, BRAF, and/or CRAF (Rapidly Accelerated Fibrosarcoma (RAF1)) mutations or alterations. A dose optimization part in adults with NSCLC may follow the dose escalation phase if the sponsor, in consultation with the safety review committee, decides it is necessary to further characterize the optimal dose. However, the study may also proceed directly to the expansion phase. The study population for the Dose Expansion part of the study comprises adults with advanced/metastatic NSCLC with KRAS and/or BRAF mutations, and with Pancreatic Ductal AdenoCarcinoma (PDAC), ColoRectal Cancer (CRC), and Biliary Tract Cancer (BTC) with KRAS, HRAS, NRAS, BRAF, and/or CRAF (RAF1) mutations and alterations. All patients will self-administer S241656 orally in 28-day cycles until disease progression, toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or termination of the study.

SX-682 With Pembrolizumab for the Treatment of Metastatic or Recurrent Stage IIIC or IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase II trial tests whether CXCR1/2 inhibitor SX-682 (SX-682) with pembrolizumab works to treat patients with stage IIIC or IV non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or that has come back (recurrent). SX-682 is a drug that binds to receptors on some types of immune and cancer cells, inhibiting signaling pathways, reducing inflammation, and allowing other types of immune cells to kill and eliminate cancer cells. Pembrolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to a receptor called PD-1 that is found on the surface of T-cells (a type of immune cell), activating an immune response against tumor cells. Giving SX-682 in combination with pembrolizumab may be more effective at treating patients with metastatic or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer than giving these treatments alone.
