A Study of Sigvotatug Vedotin in Advanced Solid Tumors

This trial will look at a drug called sigvotatug vedotin (SGN-B6A) alone and with pembrolizumab, with or without chemotherapy, to find out whether it is safe for people who have solid tumors. It will study sigvotatug vedotin to find out what its side effects are. A side effect is anything the drug does besides treating cancer. It will also study whether sigvotatug vedotin works to treat solid tumors. The study will have four parts. * Part A of the study will find out how much sigvotatug vedotin should be given to participants. * Part B will use the dose found in Part A to find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is and if it works to treat solid tumors. * Part C of the study will find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is in combination with these other drugs. * Part D will include people who have not received treatment. This part of the study will find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is in combination with these other drugs and if these combinations work to treat solid tumors. * In Parts C and D, participants will receive sigvotatug vedotin with either: * Pembrolizumab or, * Pembrolizumab and carboplatin, or * Pembrolizumab and cisplatin.

A Phase I/II Trial of UCB4594 in Participants With Advanced Cancer

This clinical trial is looking at UCB4594. This is the first time the drug is being tested in humans. UCB4594 is a type of drug called a monoclonal antibody. It has been designed to work by targeting a protein called human leucocyte antigen G (HLA-G) that is found in high levels on some cancer cells. By attaching itself to this protein it may help the immune system to attack and kill the cancer cells. The four main aims of the clinical trial are to find out: 1. The best dose of UCB4594 that can be given safely to participants in the trial. 2. What the side effects of UCB4594 are and how they can be managed. 3. What happens to UCB4594 inside the body and how it affects cancer cells. 4. Whether UCB4594 can cause cancer to shrink.

HNSCC is a type of cancer that develops in the head and neck regions, including the outer tissue layer of the mouth and throat. This study will focus on participants with HNSCC who are treatment-naive (have not received prior treatment) in the R/M setting.

Phase 2 aims to establish non-inferiority of swallowing-related quality of life and to assess the toxicity and efficacy of hypofractionated radiation therapy compared to conventionally fractionated radiation therapy in the post-operative setting.

5-Fluorouracil Response and Optimization STudy (The FROST Trial)

This randomized phase II trial will characterize the efficacy, adverse event (AE) profile, and safety of two regimens of 5-FU given as 2L+ treatment to patients with RM-HNSCC. Eligible patients for this trial will have previously received platinum and PD-1 inhibitor therapy.

The standard regimen (Arm 2) will consist of the four days every three weeks (4D-Q3W) regimen of 5-FU. The primary hypotheses is that each regimen of 5-FU will result in an ORR of 10% of greater assessed by RECIST v1.1 criteria. The study will also describe treatment-related AEs assessed by CTCAE v5.0, dose interruptions, discontinuations, and modifications in each regimen.

It will also learn about the safety of drug CADI-05. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does using CADI-05 together with pembrolizumab help the immune system fight cancer better and lead to better results for patients? * What side effects or health problems might happen when people receive these two treatments? Participants will: * Get pembrolizumab by IV (through a vein) once on day 1 of week 1 and again day 1 of week 4. This is standard of care treatment. * Get CADI-05 as a small injection into the skin once a week for 5 weeks.

Patients are then stratified to risk-adapted adjuvant therapy based on pathological findings (radiation or chemoradiation with cisplatin if adverse features present). The primary endpoint is the pathological complete response (pCR) rate and major pathological response (MPR, \<10% viable tumor cells) rate at surgery. Secondary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR) by imaging (MRI/PET-CT), correlation of PET-CT metabolic response with pathological response, proportion requiring adjuvant chemoradiation, and 3-year event-free survival compared to historical controls. Study period: 2026-2029.
