This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well crizotinib works to treat patients with cancers with MET exon 14 deletion genetic changes. Crizotinib is in a group of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking enzymes that cancer cells need to grow and spread. It may also prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow.

Testing the Investigational Medication Combination of Daratumumab and Teclistamab Compared to the Usual Treatment (Daratumumab, Pomalidomide, Dexamethasone or Daratumumab, Carfilzomib, Dexamethasone) for Patients With High-risk Multiple Myeloma Refractory or in First Relapse

This phase II trial compares the effect of the combination of daratumumab-hyaluronidase (daratumumab) and teclistamab to the usual treatment of daratumumab, pomalidomide, dexamethasone or daratumumab, carfilzomib and dexamethasone in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory) or that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed). Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Teclistamab is a bispecific antibody that can bind to two different antigens at the same time. Teclistamab binds to B-cell maturation antigen, a protein found on some B-cells and myeloma cells, and CD3 on T-cells (a type of white blood cell) and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Pomalidomide is in a class of medications called immunomodulatory agents. It works by helping the immune system kill cancer cells and by helping the bone marrow to produce normal blood cells. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Carfilzomib, a type of proteasome inhibitor, blocks the action of enzymes called proteasomes, which may help keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them. Giving daratumumab and teclistamab may be more effective than the usual treatment of daratumumab, pomalidomide, dexamethasone or daratumumab, carfilzomib and dexamethasone in reducing myeloma cells to undetectable levels in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Testing the Investigational Medication Combination of Teclistamab and Pomalidomide Compared to the Usual Treatment (Carfilzomib, Pomalidomide, and Dexamethasone) for Patients With Multiple Myeloma Who Have Relapsed Shortly After Treatment

This phase Ib/II trial compares the effect of teclistamab and pomalidomide to standard treatment with carfilzomib, pomalidomide and dexamethasone in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed). Teclistamab is a bispecific antibody that can bind to two different antigens at the same time. Teclistamab binds to B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), a protein found on some B-cells and myeloma cells, and CD3 on T-cells (a type of white blood cell) and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Pomalidomide is in a class of medications called immunomodulatory agents. It works by helping the immune system kill cancer cells and by helping the bone marrow to produce normal blood cells. Carfilzomib blocks the action of enzymes called proteasomes, which may help keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them. It is a type of proteasome inhibitor. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Giving teclistamab and pomalidomide may be safe, tolerable and improve response by lowering myeloma cells to undetectable levels when compared to standard treatment with carfilzomib, pomalidomide and dexamethasone in treating patients with relapsed multiple myeloma.

Testing GDC-0449 (Vismodegib) as Potentially Targeted Treatment in Cancers With Smoothened or Patched 1 Mutant Tumors (MATCH - Subprotocol T)

This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well GDC-0449 (vismodegib) works for treating patients with solid tumors, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory) and who have a smoothened or patched 1 genetic mutation. Vismodegib is a type of medication called a hedgehog signaling pathway antagonist and works by blocks a type of protein involved in tissue growth and repair and may block the growth of cancer cells.

Testing BVD-523FB (Ulixertinib) as Potentially Targeted Treatment in Cancers With Genetic Changes (MATCH - Subprotocol Z1L)

This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well BVD-523FB (ulixertinib) works in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes. BVD-523FB (ulixertinib) 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 proteins that signal cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells.

Elotuzumab + Iberdomide + Dexamethasone Post Ide-Cel in RRMM

The aim of this research study is to evaluate the efficacy of Elotuzumab and Iberdomide therapy post-Idecabtagene Vicleucel in participants with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * Iberdomide (a type of cereblon E3 ligase modulator) * Elotuzumab (a type of monoclonal antibody) * Dexamethasone (a type of steroid)

Infliximab for Cytokine Release Syndrome Prophylaxis During Teclistamab or Talquetamab Therapy in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Myeloma

This phase II trial tests how well giving infliximab works for the prevention of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) during treatment with teclistamab or talquetamab in patients with multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). CRS and neurologic toxicity (damage to the nervous system which includes the brain, spinal cord, and nerves) are potential risks of treatment with talquetamab and teclistamab. CRS involves a release of a large amount of proteins into the bloodstream causing inflammation. This may cause changes in blood pressure and heartbeat, flu-like symptoms (nausea, fever, and chills), and/or affect the lung/liver/kidney function. It may also cause certain brain-related symptoms, such as dizziness, weakness, confusion, difficulty speaking, and/or decreased brain function (possible paralysis and/or coma). Infliximab is a drug that prevents the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) from working. TNF-α is a cytokine, or chemical messenger, that helps your immune system produce inflammation. Giving infliximab may work well for the prevention of cytokine release syndrome during treatment with teclistamab or talquetamab in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Testing AZD1775 as a Potential Targeted Treatment in Cancers With BRCA Genetic Changes (MATCH-Subprotocol Z1I)

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifiesay block the protein tyrosine kinase WEE1 the effects of AZD1775 in patients whose cancer has a genetic change called BRCA mutation. AZD1775 may block a protein called WEE1, which may be needed for growth of cancer cells that express BRCA mutations. Researchers hope to learn if AZD1775 will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

Testing Teclistamab (TECVAYLI) in Combination With Iberdomide for Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of iberdomide in combination with teclistamab in treating multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Iberdomide is a medication that belongs to a group of drugs known as cereblon E3 ligase modulators. Iberdomide works by targeting and destroying proteins that help myeloma cancer cells to survive. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as teclistamab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving iberdomide in combination with teclistamab may be safe and tolerable in treating patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Testing the Combination of Two Approved Drugs and One Experimental Drug in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose, and effectiveness of iberdomide in combination with belantamab mafodotin and dexamethasone in treating patients with multiple myeloma (MM) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Multiple myeloma is a cancer that affects white blood cells called plasma cells, which are made in the bone marrow and are part of the immune system. Multiple myeloma cells have a protein on their surface called B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) that allows the cancer cells to survive and grow. Immunotherapy with iberdomide, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Belantamab mafodotin has been designed to attach to the BCMA protein, which may cause the myeloma cell to become damaged and die. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Iberdomide plus belantamab mafodotin may help slow or stop the growth of cancer in patients with multiple myeloma.

Targeted Therapy Directed by Genetic Testing in Treating Patients With Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors, Lymphomas, or Multiple Myeloma (The MATCH Screening Trial)

This phase II MATCH screening and multi-sub-trial studies how well treatment that is directed by genetic testing works in patients with solid tumors, lymphomas, or multiple myelomas that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) and does not respond to treatment (refractory). Patients must have progressed following at least one line of standard treatment or for which no agreed upon treatment approach exists. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with genetic abnormalities (such as mutations, amplifications, or translocations) may benefit more from treatment which targets their tumor's particular genetic abnormality. Identifying these genetic abnormalities first may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with solid tumors, lymphomas, or multiple myeloma.

Part A: The purpose of Part A of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of RO7875913 in healthy participants. Part B: The purpose of Part B of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical activity of RO7875913 administered in combination with the T cell-engaging bispecific antibody (TCB) cevostamab in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM).

A Study of Elranatamab (PF-06863135) in Chinese Participants With Refractory Multiple Myeloma.

The purpose of this study is to understand the study medicine (called Elranatamab, or PF-06863135) as potential treatment for refractory multiple myeloma. Multiple myeloma is a form of cancer in the bone that forces healthy blood cells to go out. Sometimes, multiple myeloma does not respond to current therapy or quickly progresses, and this is called refractory multiple myeloma. Elranatamab is a study medicine that target multiple myeloma and activates the human body to fight against this disease. We are seeking Chinese participants to take part in this study. The study will be 2 parts, called part 1b and part 2. In part 1b, participants will receive Elranatamab at 2 steps priming and full dose as a sc (subcutaneous injection) therapy. We will monitor participants' safety and reactions to the study medicine. This will help us understand the dosage of Elranatamab to be used safely. In part 2 of the study, participants will receive Elranatamab and their multiple myeloma growth will be monitored. This will help us understand if Elranatamab, when used alone, may be a therapy for refractory multiple myeloma. Participants in this part of the study are expected to take part for about 2 years.

Outpatient and Intermittent Dosing of Elranatamab in Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma

A phase II study of single agent elranatamab in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (MM) who have previously received at least three classes of therapeutic agents and are refractory to the last line of treatment. The primary objective of this study is to improve the tolerability and safety of elranatamab in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma by evaluating an outpatient and intermittent dosing strategy.

Immunomodulatory Drugs (Lenalidomide With or Without Pomalidomide) in Combination With a Corticosteroid Drug (Dexamethasone) for the Treatment of Multiple Myeloma

This phase II trial studies the effect of immunomodulatory drug(s) in combination with a corticosteroid drug in treating patients with multiple myeloma or smoldering multiple myeloma. Immunomodulatory drugs such as lenalidomide and pomalidomide work through a variety of mechanisms to affect the function of the immune system. They are widely used as treatment for multiple myeloma and remain the backbone of therapy for both newly diagnosed patients and patients that have multiple myeloma that has come back after treatment (relapsed). Corticosteroid drugs like dexamethasone are strong anti-inflammatory agents that are also widely used to treat patients with multiple myeloma. This study may help doctors find out how patients respond to one treatment cycle of immunomodulatory drug(s) in combination with dexamethasone. This may help doctors determine which combinations of drugs work best in treating patients with multiple myeloma or smoldering multiple myeloma.

Testing Crizotinib as a Potential Targeted Treatment in Cancers With ROS1 Genetic Changes (MATCH-Subprotocol G)

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of crizotinib in patients whose cancer has a genetic change called ROS1 translocation. Crizotinib may block a protein called ROS1, which may be needed for cancer cell growth. Researchers hope to learn if crizotinib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

High Throughput Drug Sensitivity and Genomics Data in Developing Individualized Treatment in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma or Plasma Cell Leukemia

This pilot clinical trial studies whether using high throughput drug sensitivity and genomics data is feasible in developing individualized treatment in patients with multiple myeloma or plasma cell leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. High throughput screen tests many different drugs that kill multiple myeloma cells in individual chambers at the same time. Matching a drug or drug combination to a patient using high throughput screen and genetic information may improve the ability to help patients by choosing drugs that work well for their disease.

Response-Based Dose Reduction of Linvoseltamab in the Treatment of Relapsed, Refractory, or Triple-Class Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma

This phase I/II trial evaluates the safety and feasibility of early, response-based dose reduction of linvoseltamab in the treatment of patients multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed), that does not respond to treatment (refractory), or that is resistant to three classes of therapeutic agents, including proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory agents, and monoclonal antibodies (triple-class relapsed/refractory). Linvoseltamab is a bispecific antibody. Upon administration, linvoseltamab binds to the BCMA protein on cancer cells and the CD3 protein on T cells (a type of immune cell). This generates an immune response that stimulates the T cells to kill the cancer cells. Optimal dosing schedules of linvoseltamab have not yet been determined. Reducing the dosage of linvoseltamab may reduce treatment-related side effects while maintaining long-term disease outcomes.

Isatuximab, Carfilzomib, Pomalidomide, and Dexamethasone for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

This phase II trial studies the effect of isatuximab, carfilzomib, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Isatuximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the proteins needed for cell growth. Pomalidomide may help shrink or slow the growth of multiple myeloma. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as dexamethasone lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. Giving isatuximab, carfilzomib, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone may kill more cancer cells.

Testing AZD9291 as Potentially Targeted Treatment in Cancers With EGFR Genetic Changes (MATCH-Subprotocol E)

This phase II MATCH treatment trial evaluates the effectiveness of osimertinib (AZD9291) in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes called EGFR mutations. Osimertinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of mutant forms of the EGFR protein, which play a key role in tumor cell growth. Osimertinib may cause tumor cell death and inhibit tumor growth in EGFR-overexpressing tumor cells, thereby stopping or slowing the spread of tumor cells.

Testing JNJ-42756493 (Erdafitinib) as Potentially Targeting Treatment in Cancers With FGFR Amplifications (MATCH-Subprotocol K1)

This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well JNJ-42756493 (erdafitinib) works in treating patients with tumors that have more copies of the FGFR gene than is normal (amplification). Erdafitinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal FGFR protein that signals cancer cells to multiply.

²¹¹At-OKT10-B10 and Fludarabine Alone or in Combination With Cyclophosphamide and Low-Dose TBI Before Donor Stem Cell Transplant for the Treatment of Newly Diagnosed, Recurrent, or Refractory High-Risk Multiple Myeloma

This phase I trial investigates the side effects and best dose of ²¹¹At-OKT10-B10 when given together with fludarabine, alone or in combination with cyclophosphamide and low-dose total-body irradiation (TBI) before donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with high-risk multiple myeloma that is newly diagnosed, has come back (recurrent), or does not respond to treatment (refractory). ²¹¹At-OKT10-B10 is a monoclonal antibody, called OKT10-B10, linked to a radioactive agent called ²¹¹At. OKT10-B10 attaches to CD38 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers ²¹¹At to kill them. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, 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. Radiation therapy such as TBI uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving ²¹¹At-OKT10-B10 together with chemotherapy and TBI before a donor stem cell transplant helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into a patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make more healthy cells and platelets and may help destroy any remaining cancer cells.

Testing Afatinib as a Potential Targeted Treatment in Cancers With HER2 Genetic Changes (MATCH-Subprotocol B)

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of afatinib in patients whose cancer has genetic changes called HER2 mutations. Afatinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the HER2 receptor, a protein that may be needed for cell growth. Researchers hope to learn if afatinib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.
