The development of next generation sequencing (NGS) techniques, including whole genome (WGS), exome (WES) and RNA sequencing has revolutionized the ability of investigators to query the molecular mechanisms underlying tumor formation. Through the Pediatric Cancer Genome Project (…

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of cabazitaxel when given together with enzalutamide in treating patients with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and has not responded to treatment with hormones or no longer respo…

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of trametinib in patients with cancer having genetic changes called BRAF mutations and fusions. Trametinib may block proteins called MEK1 and MEK2, which may be needed for growth of cancer cells that express BRAF mutation…

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of ado-trastuzumab emtansine in patients whose cancer has a genetic change called HER2 amplification. Ado-trastuzumab emtansine is a monoclonal antibody, called trastuzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug called DM1. Trast…

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…

This multicentre, open-label, Phase 1b/2 study is designed as a 2 part study consisting of a dose-escalation, safety run-in Part A and a dose-expansion Part B

Assess the feasibility of the treatment of DeBakey Type I/II aortic dissections with the GORE® Ascending Stent Graft

The goal of this proposal is to develop a more effective and better tolerated regimen. Ixazomib appears to have greater activity than bortezomib with less peripheral neuropathy.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of stereotactic body radiation therapy while using intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) planning to help avoid radiation to normal tissue in patients with prostate cancer. Stereotactic body radiation therapy is …

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best doses of cabozantinib s-malate and nivolumab with or without ipilimumab in treating patients with genitourinary (genital and urinary organ) tumors that have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in t…

The purpose of this study is to get images (pictures) of oral lesions, which occur inside the mouth, before the patient's surgery using a special camera. These pictures will be used in our research to evaluate a new technology that uses a laser and takes pictures of the microscop…

Sporadic Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM) is the most frequent inflammatory myopathy in patients over 50. It is a slowly progressive, but today untreatable (notably by classical immunosuppressants) disease. Rapamycin used in organ transplantation blocks the activity of T effector c…

This phase II trial studies how well ultra low dose orbital radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage I-IV low grade (indolent) B-cell lymphoma or mantle cell lymphoma involving the orbit of the eye (space enclosed by the borders of the eye socket). Orbital radiatio…

This research study is investigating the use of aspirin as a potential chemopreventive agent to reduce risk of colorectal cancer

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ixazomib citrate, gemcitabine hydrochloride, and doxorubicin hydrochloride when given together in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed…

This is a two-site study that explores the effects of mirror therapy and transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS, Soterix ©) in a randomized factorial controlled trial in which patients will be assigned to one of four groups: active tDCS and active MT; sham tDCS and active …

This is a prospective open-label clinical study of 50 patients to determine safety and treatment potential of autologous cell therapy for pain and inflammation associated with Osteoarthritis of the knee. Follow-up will consist of a larger sample including 4,000 patients.

The purpose of this study is to find out what effect an antibody called Humanized 3F8 (Hu3F8) and a drug called GM-CSF have on the patient and whether it can keep the patient in remission longer and/or prevent recurrence of the disease.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of EphA2 siRNA in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced) or have come back after a period of improvement (recurr…

This is a prospective open-label clinical study of 50 patients to determine safety and treatment potential of autologous cell therapy for pain and inflammation associated with Osteoarthritis of the hip. Follow-up will consist of a larger sample including 4,000 patients.
