Characterizing the Genomic Landscape of Cancer in Native American Populations (NAT-Geno)

The purpose of this study is to analyze tumor tissue samples from patients of Native American identity with prespecified cancers of interest. By examining these samples, researchers hope to understand how different genes in your tumor can influence treatment decisions, how your cancer progresses and the outcome of your cancer.

This is a multicenter Phase 1b, open label, dose-escalation and cohort-expansion study, evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), preliminary antitumor activity, and effect of biomarkers of zanzalintinib administered alone, and in combination with nivolumab (doublet), nivolumab + ipilimumab (triplet) and nivolumab + relatlimab (triplet) and in combination with docetaxel and prednisone in participants with advanced solid tumors. In addition, the study will evaluate the effect of multiple dose administration of zanzalintinib on the single-dose pharmacokinetics of sensitive CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, or CYP1A2 substrates in participants with advanced solid tumors. In the Expansion Stage, the safety and efficacy of zanzalintinib as monotherapy and in combination therapy will be further evaluated in tumor-specific Expansion Cohorts.

A Pilot Study of Blood-based Biomarkers for Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

A pilot study evaluating baseline and on-treatment changes in tumor fraction (TFx) in peripheral blood in patients with NSCLC and RCC being treated with checkpoint inhibitor therapy as part of standard of care. The primary objective of the study is to determine whether baseline TFx can be reliably predicted in patients with NSCLC and RCC and if changes can be detected during treatment that may correlate with response. Exploratory analyses will be completed to assess the potential roles of cachexia-associated inflammation, tumor-associated increases in glucocorticoid secretion, and ketosis/ketogenesis in both elevated mAb clearance and in response to ICI therapy. Measurements will include circulating IL-6 and other cytokine levels, glucocorticoid levels, ketone levels and stool analysis for assessment of gut microbiome.

The study will also investigate the effect of oral low-dose acetazolamide on the biodistribution of 18F-NY104, particularly in the stomach and kidneys.

ClAmpless, Sutureless PartIAl Nephrectomy for Renal Masses

During partial nephrectomy surgery, efforts at minimizing ischemia while maximizing renal parenchymal volume are desirable to preserve renal function1,2. Not only clamping of the hilum but the renorrhaphy portion of the procedure also can have a significant negative impact on renal function3-5. It is possible to perform this procedure without clamping the hilum and also without formal renorrhaphy. However robust prospective formal evaluation of safety, risks, and potential benefits and whether or not the technique can be employed in a generalized fashion has not been studied. Demonstration of safety and generalizability may open a whole new avenue of approaching nephron sparing and renal function sparing kidney surgery and decrease potential risks for long term kidney disease in patients with renal masses. This study will investigate the safety, efficacy, and generalizability of the use of clampless, sutureless partial nephrectomy in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma.

The pharmacokinetic characteristics of CAR-T cell preparations for the treatment of patients with CD70-positive advanced malignancies were obtained and the recommended dose and infusion schedule.

Testing the Addition of the Anti-Cancer Drug Tivozanib to Immunotherapy (Pembrolizumab) After Surgery to Remove All Known Sites of Kidney Cancer

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding tivozanib to standard therapy pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone for the treatment of patients with high-risk renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Tivozanib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps stop the spread of tumor cells. Giving pembrolizumab and tivozanib together may work better than pembrolizumab alone in treating patients with RCC.

Registry of Minimally Invasive Cancer Treatment Using Spectral Angio-CT Image Guidance

This study collects data from patients undergoing minimally invasive, image-guided cancer treatments at participating hospitals in the Netherlands and France. All treatments are performed as standard clinical care and include procedures such as tumor ablation and catheter-based treatments of cancer in the liver, kidney, lung, and bone. During these procedures, a spectral angio-CT system is used for image guidance. This advanced CT scanner automatically captures additional imaging information beyond what is used in routine clinical decision-making. The goal of this study is to investigate how this additional imaging information is associated with treatment outcomes, and how it can be used in the future to improve treatment planning, procedural guidance, and prediction of treatment results. No experimental interventions are performed. Participation does not alter the treatment or follow-up patients receive. Data are collected from medical records and imaging systems and stored securely for analysis.

Cabozantinib Dose Skipping as an Alternative to Dose Reductions

The goal of this study is to determine if an alternative cabozantinib dosing regimens results in a similar drug exposure compared to the standard regimens in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). All dosages of cabozantinib (20 ,40, 60mg) have the same price, and cabozantinib is eliminated very slowly by the body. This means that using fewer tablets could potentially lead to cost savings, while remaining equally effective. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the drug exposure from our experimental regimens similar to the standard dosing regimens? * Do the experimental regimens affect the number of side effect and the patients' quality of life? Participants will: * Take cabozantinib according to either the experimental or standard dosage regimen for 4 weeks * After 4 weeks: visit the clinic to collect some blood samples and complete two questionnaires. * 1 and 3 days after this visit: visit the clinic to collect 1 blood sample. * The day after the hospital visit: switch to the other dosing regimen and according to that regimen for another 4 weeks. * After 4 weeks: visit the clinic to collect some blood samples and complete two questionnaires * 1 and 3 days after this visit: visit the clinic to collect 1 blood sample.

Comparing Two Weight Loss Programs for the Prevention of Kidney Cancer Progression Among Patients With Small Renal Masses on Active Surveillance

This clinical trial compares two different weight-loss programs, daily continuous calorie energy reduction (CER) versus (vs.) 5:2 intermittent fasting (IF), in preventing progression of kidney (renal) cancer among patients with one or more small renal masses (SRM) undergoing active surveillance (AS). Kidney cancer patients tend to have changes in metabolism that may increase body weight, but weight-loss strategies that work for best for these patients are unknown. The CER program requires a set daily limit for calories. The IF program requires fasting for 2 days a week and normal eating for the remaining 5 days. Both will include self-monitoring with interventionist feedback. This trial may help researchers determine whether the IF program works better than the CER program in improving weight loss, physical health, and/or reducing the risk of kidney cancer progression among patients with small renal masses undergoing AS

A Phase 1 and 2 Study of VMD-102 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Other Solid Tumors

This study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability to determine (i) the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of VMD-102 (Phase 1), and (ii) preliminary anti-tumor efficacy (Phase 2), in participants with advanced HCC, metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and colorectal cancer (CRC). The pharmacokinetics (PK), preliminary anti-tumor activity, and potential biomarkers of VMD-102 will also be assessed. VMD-102 will be the first selective PKC epsilon (PKCε or PKCe) kinase inhibitor to enter human clinical testing. Preclinical VMD-102 anti-tumor activities in mouse liver/HCC tumor models and preclinical toxicology and pharmacology studies support this study.
