Experimental COVID-19 therapy targets cancer patients
Disease control OngoingThis early-stage trial tests a biologic treatment for 20 people with moderate COVID-19 who also have controlled cancer. The treatment aims to help the immune system recognize and kill the virus. Researchers will check if the virus clears and if the immune response improves.
Phase: EARLY_PHASE1 • Sponsor: Han Xu, M.D., Ph.D., FAPCR, Sponsor-Investigator, IRB Chair • Aim: Disease control

New immune therapy aims to train body to attack rectal cancer cells
Disease control OngoingThis early phase trial tests a biological product mix designed to train the immune system to recognize and kill CEA-positive rectal cancer cells. The study involves 20 participants with early-stage rectal cancer (Stage 0 to IIA) who have not yet developed symptoms or metastasis. …

Can a vaccine mix help the body fight HIV? early trial begins
Disease control OngoingThis early-phase trial tests a combination of HIV GP160 protein and BCG vaccine (used for tuberculosis) in 20 HIV-positive people without AIDS symptoms. The goal is to see if the mix can activate the immune system to recognize and kill HIV. It is a small proof-of-concept study, n…

Gene study aims to personalize lung cancer drug therapy
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study looks at how tiny genetic differences (called SNPs) in ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer patients might influence how well the drug alectinib works and what side effects occur. Researchers will analyze DNA from 600 patients who have been taking alectinib for at l…

Genetic clues could personalize prostate cancer therapy
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study looks at how genetic differences (SNPs) in prostate cancer patients affect their response and side effects to the drug abiraterone. Researchers will analyze DNA from 600 patients taking abiraterone plus prednisone and bicalutamide. The goal is to find genetic markers t…

Gene test could personalize breast cancer prevention drug
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study examines how genetic variations (SNPs) in certain genes influence how well the drug raloxifene works and its side effects in 600 patients with lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS), a high-risk breast condition. Participants take raloxifene daily, and researchers sequence t…

Gene study aims to personalize lung cancer chemotherapy
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study looks at how genetic differences (SNPs) in drug targets influence how well topotecan works and its side effects in 600 people with small cell lung cancer. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the usual topotecan capsule or an imported version. Researche…
