Rinatabart Sesutecan (Rina-S, PRO1184, GEN1184) for Advanced Solid Tumors (GCT1184-01/ PRO1184-001)

This study will test the safety, including side effects, and determine the characteristics of a drug called Rina-S in participants with solid tumors. Participants will have solid tumor cancer that has spread through the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed with surgery (unresectable).

Neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab and Carboplatin Plus Paclitaxel for Stage I Triple-negative Breast Cancer

This is a single arm, proof of concept phase II clinical trial to evaluate the combination of Pembrolizumab and Carboplatin plus Paclitaxel in patients with localized TNBC (tumor size ≥10 mm and up to 25 mm by mammogram and/or ultrasound, or ≤25 mm by breast MRI if performed within 2 weeks after biopsy, considering possible tissue inflammation post-procedure, as per local assessment), node-negative status (by clinical exam and local radiological evaluation) and who have not previously received chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and/or radiotherapy for invasive breast cancer.

PAveMenT: Palbociclib and Avelumab in Metastatic AR+ Triple Negative Breast Cancer

This clinical study is aiming to determine the safest doses and schedule for the combination of two drugs named palbociclib and avelumab. The study will also be investigating how effective the combination is for a subgroup of breast cancer patients whose cancer expresses the androgen receptor (AR) but not the oestrogen (hormone) or HER2 receptors. Palbociclib is a drug used in routine care for hormone-receptor (HR) positive and HER2 negative advanced breast cancer, the most common subtype of breast cancer. It is possible that the combination of palbociclib and avelumab will be a more effective cancer treatment than each drug separately, but this is unknown and this study is needed to establish the best dosage and schedule of each drug as well as how effective the combination is.

Study of Sacituzumab Govitecan-hziy Versus Treatment of Physician's Choice in Patients With Previously Untreated Locally Advanced Inoperable or Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

The primary objective of this study is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) between sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (SG) versus treatment of physician's choice (TPC) in participants with previously untreated, locally advanced, inoperable or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer whose tumors do not express programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) or in participants previously treated with anti-programmed cell death (ligand or protein) 1 (Anti-PD-(L)1) Agents in the early setting whose tumors do express PD-L1.

Nadunolimab in Combination With Gemcitabine Plus Carboplatin in Patients With Advanced Triple Negative Breast Cancer.

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents approximately 15% of all breast cancers (BC) worldwide. The term triple negative means that tumor growth is not stimulated by the hormones estrogen and progesterone, nor by the HER2 protein, so unlike other types of BC, TNBC, which is an aggressive form of BC, does not have specific effective therapies available being the least common form of BC and the most difficult to treat. Advanced or metastatic TNBC is treated with combinations of platinum-based chemotherapy with taxanes or gemcitabine with a 5-year survival rate of 12%. Recent studies have shown that TNBC expresses Interleukin 1 Receptor Accessory Protein (IL1RAP) at higher levels than other forms of BC. Nadunolimab is a fully humanized monoclonal antibody that blocks the signals that occur within the cell produced by IL1RAP protein, thereby impairing the cancer cells' ability to secrete tumor stimulating substances, in turn reducing the tumor, inflammation and tumor progression. On the other hand, it is an antibody designed to activate the immune system to fight cancer cells. This clinical trial is divided into two phases, phase Ib in which it is expected to include up to 15 patients and phase II in which it is expected to include 102 patients. The main purpose of phase Ib is to ensure that the combination of nadunolimab plus chemotherapy (gemcitabine plus carboplatin) is safe and determine the highest dose of nadunolimab that can be given safely without causing serious side effects. If the pre-specified objectives in this part are achieved, the trial will be expanded to a randomized phase II, to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of nadunolimab plus gemcitabine plus carboplatin, compared to a control group that will receive gemcitabine plus carboplatin only.

Study to Assess Adverse Events and Pharmacokinetics in Adult Participants With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Other Solid Tumors, Receiving Intravenous Infusion of Azirkitug Alone or in Combination(s) With Budigalimab, Bevacizumab, or Telisotuzumab Adizutecan

Cancer is a condition where cells in a specific part of body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is a solid tumor, a disease in which cancer cells form in the tissues of the lung. Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) is a solid tumor, a disease in which cancer cells form in the tissues of the head and neck. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and pharmacokinetics of azirkitug as a monotherapy and in combination with budigalimab, bevacizumab, or telisotuzumab adizutecan. Bevacizumab is an approved product, while budigalimab, azirkitug, and telisotuzumab adizutecan are investigational drugs being developed for the treatment of NSCLC, HNSCC, and other solid tumors. Study doctors put the participants in groups called treatment arms. The maximum-tolerated dose (MTD)/maximum administered dose (MAD) of azirkitug will be explored. Each treatment arm receives a different dose of azirkitug in monotherapy and in combination with budigalimab, bevacizumab, or telisotuzumab adizutecan. Approximately 694 adult participants will be enrolled in the study across approximately 80 sites worldwide. Participants will receive azirkitug as a monotherapy or in combination with budigalimab, bevacizumab, or telisotuzumab adizutecan as an Intravenous (IV) Infusion for an estimated treatment period of up to 2 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

The study is conducted in two parts - phase Ia (dose-escalation, dose-optimization) and phase Ib (dose-expansion). The study will last up to approximately 4 years.

Impact of Vitamin D Supplementation on the Rate of Pathologic Complete Response in Vitamin D Deficient Patients

A two arm pilot study investigating the rate of pathologic complete response in patients with vitamin D deficiency and triple negative breast cancer undergoing standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy + vitamin D supplementation, including an observational arm to describe response in patients who are not deficient. Investigators hypothesize that vitamin D supplementation during neoadjuvant chemotherapy in operable triple negative breast cancer patients with vitamin D deficiency, will increase the rate of pathologic complete response chain reaction to that of vitamin D sufficient patients based on historical controls.

Evolutionary Clinical Trial for Novel Biomarker-Driven Therapies

This is a multicenter, multi-arm, biomarker-stratified trial designed to evaluate biomarker-directed therapies in patients with estrogen receptor-positive/hormone receptor-negative (ER+/HR-) and triple-negative (TN) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). The trial integrates both retrospective and prospective data collection, including archival tumor tissue, medical record abstraction, and prospective tumor and blood sampling prior to initiation of protocol directed treatment. Based on biomarker subtype, participants will receive standard of care therapy. Liquid biopsy will be collected on Cycle 2 Day 1, and then liquid biopsy, imaging and clinical data will be collected at each re-staging. Treatment will continue until discontinuation for progression, toxicity or at the discretion of the treating physician.

Correlation Between TILs and Blood Cell Counts in Triple Negative Breast Cancer Patients

The PERCEPTION study aims to assess the correlation between blood cell counts (Leucocytes, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Platelets, NLR (Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio) and PLR (Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio)) and Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs), at baseline and after surgery, for patients diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer. It also aims to assess these circulating elements and circulating tumor DNA as predictive factor of metastatic recurrence in triple negative breast cancer.

Establishment of an ex Vivo Tumor Collection of Triple-negative Breast Cancers in Order to Validate the Interest of Innovative Therapies and the Search for Predictive Biomarkers of Response to Treatment

Initially described in 2009 on LGR5 positive stem cells from intestine, organoids correspond to a 3D cell culture that preserves the organization and part of the initial function of the organ from which the cells were derived. They use the proliferation and differentiation properties of stem cells cultured in a three-dimensional matrix. These principles have been adapted to many human organs, including the breast. These culture conditions have thus allowed the establishment of cancer organoid lines that have the advantages of rapid amplification, a high rate of establishment success and unlimited proliferation potential. They are transfectable and cryopreservable. They are very close morphologically and genetically to the tumor from which they derive. Very recently, the in vivo response of orthotopic xenograft models of breast cancer organoids has been correlated to the in vitro response of these same organoids. In addition, the in vitro response of various of these models to PARP inhibitors was linked to the presence of the BRCA1/2 mutant signature, highlighting the potential of these models to predict patient response to these treatments. Furthermore, one study demonstrated the value of using organoids derived from metastatic gastrointestinal tumors to predict patient response to cancer treatments (100% sensitivity, 93% specificity, 88% positive predictive value, and 100% negative predictive value.

A Phase 1 Study of ATV-1601 in Patients With Advanced Cancer That Have AKT1 E17K Mutations

This is a Phase 1, open-label study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ATV-1601 administered orally in adults with AKT1 E17K-mutant, advanced solid tumors and also in HR+/HER2- advanced and metastatic breast cancer, with or without fulvestrant.

Early Detection of Metastatic Recurrence Among Patients With Stage II or III Triple Negative Breast Cancer Using Liquid Biopsy and Imaging

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive type of breast cancer, often with poor outcomes. Currently, follow-up for TNBC consists of physical exams and annual breast imaging, with additional scans only if symptoms appear. This approach may delay the detection of the cancer coming back until the disease is advanced. A promising new technique is the detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-in the blood. Studies suggest ctDNA may identify cancer recurrence months before it becomes visible on scans or causes symptoms. However, it is unknown whether detecting recurrence earlier can actually help patients live longer or feel better. The EINSTEIN-TNBC trial is a study aiming to evaluate the feasibility of ctDNA-guided surveillance for patients with TNBC after surgery. Thirty participants will be randomized to either: Standard of care (routine physical exams and annual breast imaging), or Active surveillance (standard of care plus ctDNA testing, with imaging investigations if ctDNA is detected). This study will assess the feasibility of conducting a ctDNA-based monitoring trial in this patient population. If feasible, EINSTEIN-TNBC will lay the foundation for a larger future clinical trial to determine whether earlier detection of metastatic TNBC can improve survival and quality of life.
