Prostate cancer (PrCa) is one of the commonest cancer in men in the Western world. In the United Kingdom (UK), there were over 52,000 new cases diagnosed in 2016-2018 and a lifetime risk of 1 in 8. Research studies have identified several genetic changes that are thought to incre…

The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of paclitaxel protein bound, gemcitabine, cisplatin, paricalcitol are effective in individuals with resectable and unresectable pancreatic cancer.

Background: Patients suffering residual disability after anterior decompression and fusion (ACDF) surgery for cervical disc disease may be prescribed physical activity (PPA) or neck-specific exercises (NSE). Currently, we lack data for the success of either approach. There is als…

This phase II trial studies how well cabozantinib-s-malate works in treating younger patients with sarcomas, Wilms tumor, or other rare tumors that have come back, do not respond to therapy, or are newly diagnosed. Cabozantinib-s-malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by block…

This phase II trial studies how well durvalumab and tremelimumab work in treating participants with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and tremelim…

Fractionated radiosurgery will be delivered to atypical meningioma lesions in salvage setting for patients who present post-surgical residual lesion or develop recurrence.

The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of prenatal minimally-invasive fetoscopic closure with i) uterine exteriorization for a minimally-invasive repair under amniotic carbon dioxide insufflation ii) two trocars for the dissection and the cover with one patch o…

This treatment trial evaluates the addition of an anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha drug, certolizumab, to usual treatment (a heparin agent and low-dose aspirin) in pregnant women with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and repeatedly positive tests for lupus anticoagulant (LAC) to d…

Patients with confirmed mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 2 (thymidine kinase 2 \[TK2\] deficiency) have reduced levels of nucleotides (deoxythymidine monophosphate and deoxycytidine monophosphate) for mitochondrial DNA synthesis. This results in mitochondrial DNA depletion sy…

The purpose of this study is to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) and schedule assessed to be safe for Teclistamab and to characterize the safety and tolerability of Teclistamab at the RP2Ds.

This study will investigate the safety and tolerability of MAGE-A4ᶜ¹º³²T cell therapy in subjects who have the appropriate HLA-A2 tissue marker and whose urinary bladder, melanoma, head and neck, ovarian, non-small cell lung, esophageal, gastric, synovial sarcoma, or myxoid/round…

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of different surgical resections (R0, R1, R2) on circulating NET transcripts (PCR score or NETest). A drop in circulating NET levels will be correlated with surgical excision. Secondly, variation of circulating NET transcripts w…

This is a single-arm, single-stage Phase II study designed to evaluate the 1-year PFS rate in subjects with locally-advanced NSCLC (stage II/III) and treated with Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) followed by concurrent mediastinal chemoradiation with or without consolid…

The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate maternal and fetal outcomes following fetoscopic repair of fetal spina bifida at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. The hypothesis of this study is that fetoscopic spina bifida repair is feasible and has the same effectiveness as open re…

This clinical trial will evaluate whether it is beneficial in terms of prolongation of survival to combine FOLFIRI (standard treatment) with ramucirumab compared to the standard treatment of ramucirumab plus paclitaxel in patients with advanced gastric cancer after failure of one…

Randomized controlled, multi-center trial randomizing patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis at low to intermediate operative risk of mortality in a 1:1 fashion to transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) to test, whethe…

This research study is studying a combination of drugs with radiation therapy as a possible treatment for Microsatellite Stable Colorectal Cancer, Pancreatic Cancer, or MSI High Colorectal Cancer. The interventions involved in this study are: * Nivolumab * Ipilimumab * Radiatio…

A placebo-controlled, randomized study using adjuvant pembrolizumab treatment for one year in order to potentially improve progression free survival in a squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck cohort at high-risk for recurrence.

This research study is studying a combination of two drugs as a possible treatment for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with an EGFR mutation. The interventions involved in this study are: * Osimertinib (Tagrisso) * Gefitinib (Iressa)

This first time in human study is intended for men and women between 18 and 75 years of age who have advanced liver cancer which has grown or returned after being treated or another AFP expressing tumor. Those who did not tolerate or refused other therapies may also participate. …
