Testing a Standardized Approach to Surgery and Chemotherapy for Type I Pleuropulmonary Blastoma or the Addition of an Anti-cancer Drug, Topotecan, to the Usual Treatment for Types II and III Pleuropulmonary Blastoma
This phase III trial tests how well surgery plus chemotherapy compared to surgery alone works in treating patients with type I pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB), and tests how well surgery plus standard chemotherapy with the addition of topotecan works compared to surgery plus standard chemotherapy alone in treating patients with type II and III PPB.
Historically, most children with type I PPB had surgery and approximately 40% of children with type I PPB received chemotherapy following their surgery, usually for 22-42 weeks. There has not been a consistent standard for which children with type I PPB receive chemotherapy after surgery. For patients whose tumor has been removed completely with surgery, observation without chemotherapy may work as well as giving chemotherapy after surgery in preventing a return of the PPB tumor.
The standard chemotherapy for patients with types II or III PPB in the United States is four cycles of IVADo (ifosfamide, vincristine, dactinomycin, and doxorubicin) followed by 8 cycles of IVA (ifosfamide, vincristine and dactinomycin). Ifosfamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by slowing or stopping the growth of tumor cells in the body. Vincristine is in a class of medications called vinca alkaloids. It works by stopping tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Dactinomycin is a type of antibiotic that is only used in cancer chemotherapy (antineoplastic antibiotic). It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. Doxorubicin is in a class of medications called anthracyclines. Doxorubicin damages the cell's DNA and may kill tumor cells. It also blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair. Topotecan is in a class of medications called topoisomerase I inhibitors. It works by interfering with tumor cell DNA which kills them. Giving topotecan in addition to standard IVADo and IVA chemotherapy regimens may shrink the cancer as well as or better than the standard therapy or could decrease the chance the tumor spreads while causing fewer side effects.

Comparing Impact of Treatment Before or After Surgery in Patients With Stage II-IIIB Resectable Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
This phase III trial compares standard therapy given after surgery (adjuvant) to standard therapy given before and after surgery (perioperative) in treating patients with stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can be removed by surgery (resectable). The usual approach for patients with resectable NSCLC is chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy before surgery, after surgery, or both before and after surgery. This study is being done to find out which approach is better at treating patients with lung cancer. Treatment will be administered according to the current standard of care at the time of enrollment. Chemotherapy options may include cisplatin, carboplatin, pemetrexed, gemcitabine, docetaxel, and vinorelbine at standard doses according to the treating physician. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by stopping cells from using folic acid to make deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making DNA and may kill tumor cells. Docetaxel is in a class of medications called taxanes. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Other chemotherapy drugs, such as vinorelbine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading . Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, pembrolizumab, and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Starting treatment with chemotherapy and immunotherapy prior to surgery and continuing treatment after surgery may be a more effective treatment option than adjuvant therapy alone in patients with stage II-IIIB resectable NSCLC.

Targeted Treatment for Metastatic Prostate Cancer, The PREDICT Trial (PREDICT)
This phase II trial evaluates whether genetic testing in prostate cancer is helpful in deciding which study treatment patients are assigned. Patient cancer tissue samples are obtained from a previous surgery or biopsy procedure and tested for deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) abnormalities or mutations in their cancer. Valemetostat tosylate is in a class of medications called EZH1/EZH2 inhibitors. It blocks proteins called EZH1 and EZH2, which may help slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Cabazitaxel injection is in a class of medications called microtubule inhibitors. It works by slowing or stopping the growth of tumor cells. Abiraterone acetate blocks tissues from making androgens (male hormones), such as testosterone. This may cause the death of tumor cells that need androgens to grow. It is a type of anti-androgen. Enzalutamide is in a class of medications called androgen receptor inhibitors. It works by blocking the effects of androgen (a male reproductive hormone) to stop the growth and spread of tumor cells. Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan is in a class of medications called radiopharmaceuticals. It works by targeting and delivering radiation directly to tumor cells which damages and kills these cells. Assigning patients to targeted treatment based on genetic testing may help shrink or slow the cancer from growing

Testing Olaparib for One or Two Years, With or Without Bevacizumab, to Treat Ovarian Cancer
This phase III trial compares the effect of olaparib for one year versus two years, with or without bevacizumab, for the treatment of BRCA 1/2 mutated or homologous recombination deficient stage III or IV ovarian cancer. Olaparib is a polyadenosine 5'-diphosphoribose polymerase (PARP) enzyme inhibitor and may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Giving olaparib for one year with or without bevacizumab may be effective in treating patients with BRCA 1/2 mutated or homologous recombination deficient stage III or IV ovarian cancer, when compared to two years of olaparib.
Testing the Addition of an Immunotherapy Drug, Cemiplimab (REGN2810), Plus Surgery to the Usual Surgery Alone for Treating Advanced Skin Cancer
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding cemiplimab to standard therapy (surgery with or without radiation) versus standard therapy alone in treating patients with stage III/IV squamous cell skin cancer that is able to be removed by surgery (resectable) and that may have come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). The usual treatment for patients with resectable squamous cell skin cancer is the removal of the cancerous tissue (surgery) with or without radiation, which uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as cemiplimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cemiplimab has been approved for the treatment of skin cancer that has spread or that cannot be removed by surgery, but it has not been approved for the treatment of skin cancer than can be removed by surgery. Adding cemiplimab to the usual treatment of surgery with or without radiation may be more effective in treating patients with stage III/IV resectable squamous cell skin cancer than the usual treatment alone.

The Modulatory Effect of Female Sex Hormones on Spinal Neuroplasticity (TMSpine)
The goal of this project is to test our central hypothesis that the spinal cord neuroplasticity in females will be modulated by the level of estradiol concentration. under aim 1 we will determine the influence of estradiol fluctuations on spinal circuit excitability post afferent (sensory) mediated subthreshold motor priming in young healthy females and males. We will use an established repetitive peripheral nerve electrical stimulation with a stimulation intensity below the motor threshold to prime the spinal motor circuits. under aim 2 we seek to characterize the input output property of spinal circuit excitability after descending drive (motor) mediated priming in young healthy male participants. in aim 3 we will examine the influence of estradiol fluctuations on descending drive mediated motor priming in young healthy females.

A Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Activity of Fruquintinib in Minority Populations With Advanced, Previously Treated Colorectal Cancer
High blood pressure (hypertension) is a known side effect of the treatment with fruquintinib. Current research does not provide a clear answer whether minority groups such as Black/African American and/or Hispanic/Latino with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) have a bigger risk of higher blood pressure after treatment with fruquintinib. The main aim of this study is to learn how often adults of a minority group experience hypertension after they have been treated with fruquintinib for refractory mCRC. Other aims are to learn how safe fruquintinib is and how well it is tolerated by participants.
Participants will receive fruquintinib in 4-week treatment cycles until their condition worsens, they do no longer tolerate the treatment or stop the treatment for other reasons. After the last treatment, participants will be checked upon every 3 months until study completion.

A Study Investigating Subcutaneously Administered Pozelimab in Combination With Cemdisiran or Cemdisiran Alone in Adult Participants With Geographic Atrophy (SIENNA)
This study is researching experimental (study) drugs called pozelimab and cemdisiran. The study is focused on participants who have Geographic Atrophy (GA) caused by Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Geographic atrophy is a medical term that refers to later-stage cases of AMD which is an eye condition affecting central vision (what one sees straight ahead).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the progression rate of Geographic Atrophy in eyes of patients treated with cemdisiran alone or in combination with pozelimab compared to those treated with placebo.
The study is looking at several other research questions, including:
* What side effects may happen from taking the study drug(s)
* How much study drug(s) are in the blood at different times
* Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug(s) (which could make the study drug(s) less effective or could lead to side effects)
• Study eye with diagnosis of GA of the macula secondary to AMD as described in the protocol
• Total GA area in the study eye measuring between ≥2.5 mm\^2 and ≤17.5 mm\^2 as described in the protocol

A Phase 2, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effects of HLX-1502 in Patients With Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (INSPIRE-NF1)
The trial will be an open label, single arm, phase 2 study to assess the tolerability and efficacy of HLX-1502 in participants with NF1 that are 16 years or older in age with progressive and/or symptomatic PN. This study will also investigate the safety and efficacy of HLX-1502 in a small cohort of 12 to 15 year olds.
• All participants must have a diagnosis of NF1 based on the 2021 revised consensus criteria.
• Participants must have PN(s) that are progressive OR are causing significant morbidity, such as (but not limited to) head and neck lesions that are compromising the airway or great vessels, brachial or lumbar plexus lesions that are causing nerve compression and loss of function, lesions causing significant disfigurement (e.g., orbital lesions), lesions of the extremity that cause limb hypertrophy or loss of function, and painful lesions. Participants with paraspinal PN will be eligible for this trial. Histologic confirmation of tumor is not necessary but should be considered if there are clinical or radiographic findings concerning for malignant transformation of a PN.
• Measurable Disease: Participants must have measurable PN(s) amenable to volumetric MRI analysis. For the purpose of this study, the target lesion must be seen on at least 3 consecutive MRI slices and the field of view must contain the entire tumor of interest. Tumors must be at least 3 mL in volume (most PN 3 cm in longest diameter will meet this criteria). If the tumor is \< 3 cm in longest diameter, the participant may still be eligible. Central review of the MRI of the target PN is required prior to enrollment to ensure that the tumor is measurable and amenable to volumetric analysis.

Triptorelin for the Prevention of Ovarian Damage in Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer
This phase III trial compares the effect of giving triptorelin vs no triptorelin in preventing ovarian damage in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer receiving chemotherapy with an alkylating agents. Alkylating agents are part of standard chemotherapy, but may cause damage to the ovaries. If the ovaries are not working well or completely shut down, then it will be difficult or impossible to get pregnant in the future. Triptorelin works by blocking certain hormones and causing the ovaries to slow down or pause normal activity. The triptorelin used in this study stays active in the body for 24 weeks or about 6 months after a dose is given. After triptorelin is cleared from the body, the ovaries resume normal activities. Adding triptorelin before the start of chemotherapy treatment may reduce the chances of damage to the ovaries.

Study of Navtemadlin add-on to Ruxolitinib in JAK Inhibitor-Naïve Patients With Myelofibrosis Who Have a Suboptimal Response to Ruxolitinib (POIESIS)
This clinical trial is evaluating whether addition of navtemadlin to ruxolitinib treatment will provide more clinical benefit than ruxolitinib alone for patients with Myelofibrosis who have a suboptimal response to ruxolitinib treatment alone.
Subjects will start by receiving ruxolitinib alone in the run-in period. Those who demostrate a suboptimal response from ruxolitinib alone will then be randomized 2:1 to receive navtemadlin or navtemadlin placebo as add-on treatment to their ongoing ruxolitinib. Randomized means that subjects will be assigned to a group by chance, like a flip of a coin. The study is blinded, meaning the subjects, doctors, central endpoint assessors and sponsor will not know which add on treatment (navtemadlin or navtemadlin placebo) the subject is receiving.
Inclusion Criteria for Ruxolitinib Alone Period:
* Confirmed diagnosis of PMF, post-PV MF, or post-ET MF, as assessed by the treating physician according to the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria
* High, Intermediate-1, Intermediate-2 risk category International Prognosis System Score (IPSS)
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2
* JAK-inhibitor treatment naive
Exclusion Criteria for Ruxolitinib Alone Period:
* Prior Splenectomy
* Splenic irradiation within 3 months prior to the first dose
* Prior BCL-XL, BET, MDM2, PI3K, PIM, or XPO1 inhibitors therapy or p53-directed therapy
* Eligible for Bone Marrow Transplant
* Peripheral blood or bone marrow blast count ≥ 10 percent
Inclusion Criteria for Randomized Period:
* PMF, post-PV MF, or post-ET MF that is TP53WT as assessed by central testing
* ECOG performance status of 0 to 2
* Treatment with a stable dose of ruxolitinib
* Suboptimal response to run-in ruxolitinib treatment
Exclusion Criteria for Randomized Period:
* Elevated white blood cell count that doubles (or more) during ruxolitinib treatment and exceeds 50 × 10\^9/L
* Peripheral blood or bone marrow blast count ≥ 10 percent
Trial of Transurethral Bulking Agent Injection Versus Single-Incision Sling for Stress Urinary Incontinence (BASIS)
This is a multicentered, double-blind, randomized controlled, surgical trial of 358 women with inadequate symptom relief of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or stress predominant mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) after conservative care.
The Primary Aim is to determine the comparative effectiveness (as defined by "much" or "very much" better on PGI-I) of transurethral bulking agent (TBA) \[for 1 or 2 injections in 12 months\] vs. single-incision sling (SIS) 12 months after treatment intervention in women with predominant stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
* Women ≥ 21 years
* Bothersome SUI (PFDI-20 Q:#17 of somewhat, moderately or quite a bit) or stress predominant MUI (PFDI-20 Q:#16 \< Q:#17)50 for \> 3 months with well-controlled UUI on stable medication treatment through baseline and follow-up.
* A positive cough stress test or urodynamic SUI within the past 18 months.
* Normal voiding function as demonstrated by PVR \< 150 mL
* Candidate for either study procedure as determined by treating surgeon (i.e., failed or unable to perform conservative management for SUI including pelvic floor strengthening and failed or declines pessary option for SUI)
* Available for up to 3 years.
* Agrees to randomization.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Anterior/apical vaginal prolapse beyond the hymen (\>0 on POPQ) - Advanced prolapse may require additional surgery or potentially increase the risk of postoperative urinary obstruction and confound the results of the study.
* Urge-predominant mixed UI by UDI-6 despite stable therapy - Urge predominant UI would not be expected to improve after TBA or SIS and may bias results of interventions designed specifically for stress urinary incontinence.
* Planned hysterectomy, urethral or anterior/apical surgeries - additional surgery beyond TBA or SIS has potential to confound the results. Additionally, these procedures generally require general anesthesia and indwelling catheterization immediately post operatively. The impact of urethral instrumentation after TBA is unknown and could impact the efficacy of the urethral coaptation.
* Malignancy or history of radiation of the pelvis - The risk of foreign material rejection and mesh complications may be higher in women with pelvic radiation and other treatment for pelvic malignancy may impact primary outcomes.
* Pregnant, breast feeding or plans for pregnancy within 1 year - subsequent vaginal delivery and hormonal changes of breast feeding prior to primary outcome could impact the efficacy of either treatment.
* Incomplete emptying (PVR \> 150mL) - SUI surgery may increase the risk of urinary retention.
* Prior anti-incontinence procedure - the aim of the study is to identify the role of TBA and SIS in primary, uncomplicated SUI or stress predominant MUI management.
* Neurogenic bladder - the aim of the study is to identify the role of TBA and SIS in primary, uncomplicated SUI or stress predominant MUI management.
* Prior adverse reaction to synthetic mesh or polyacrylamide - to minimize risk of post procedure complications.
* Chronic bladder or pelvic pain conditions (e.g., Interstitial cystitis, painful bladder syndrome, fibromyalgia, chronic pelvic pain, etc.) - given the known risks of postoperative pain with SIS and higher risks of pain in those with baseline chronic pain, we aim to minimize post operative complications.
* Active 3rd line treatment for OAB/UUI with botulinum toxin, sacral neuromodulation stimulation (SNS) or percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) within 12 months or plan for 3rd line or new OAB/UUI treatment within 1 year of SUI surgery. For those on stable medication OAB/UUI treatment, participants should be on stable treatment for 3 months with adequate symptom control prior to baseline measures and plan to remain on stable therapy without 3rd line treatment plans within 1 year of SUI surgery. Those who have received 3rd line treatment (Botox. PTNS or SNS) should have a washout of 1yr from and no plans for restarting within the primary outcome timeframe of 1 year post procedure. Those using SNS for bowel leakage only and no UUI symptoms do not require minimum 3 months. Participants with MUI on OAB/UUI medication therapy will still need to have SUI worse than UUI at baseline. Randomization will be stratified based on presence of UUI treatment component.
* Active treatment for SUI with a pessary. For those using a pessary or other SUI support device, a 3-week washout period should occur prior to assessing baseline measures.
Ivosidenib (IVO) Monotherapy and Azacitidine (AZA) Monotherapy in Patients With Hypomethylating Agent (HMA) Naive Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) With an IDH1 Mutation (PyramIDH)
This study will enroll participants with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with an Isocitrate dehydrogenase protein, 1 (IDH1) mutation, who have not received treatment with a hypomethylating agent previously. Participants will be randomized to receive either ivosidenib (IVO) alone or azacitidine (AZA) alone. IVO will be administered daily throughout the 28-day treatment cycle and AZA will be administered for the first 7 days of each 28-day cycle. Study visits will be conducted every week during Cycle 1 (Days 1, 8, 15, and 22), and Day 1 of each cycle thereafter. After the last dose of treatment, participants will attend an safety follow-up visit and participants will be followed to assess overall survival. Study visits may include a bone marrow aspirate, physical exam, echocardiogram (ECHO), electrocardiogram (ECG), blood and urine analysis, and questionnaires.
* Diagnosis of HMA naive IDH1 R132 mutated MDS defined according to WHO criteria (5th edition):
* Moderate high, high and very high-risk MDS per IPSS-M score will be eligible regardless of blood counts and with blast counts 0-19%.
* Low and moderate low-risk MDS per IPSS-M score must:
* Have cytopenias related to MDS, defined as: \<100 platelets/microliter, or absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \<1000/mm3, or hemoglobin \<10g/dL AND
* Have a blast count between 5-19% AND
* Be eligible for HMA therapy (very low risk participants are to be excluded)
* Locally or centrally confirmed IDH1 R132 C/G/H/L/S mutation
Exclusion Criteria:

Pembrolizumab Plus CA-4948 for the Treatment of Patients With Progressive Metastatic Urothelial Cancer Despite Prior Immunotherapy
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose, and effectiveness of emavusertib (CA-4948) in combination with pembrolizumab in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) and that has a resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors. CA-4948, a kinase inhibitor, may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving CA-4948 in combination with pembrolizumab may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with metastatic urothelial cancer that is resistant to PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors.
* Patients must have histologically confirmed urothelial cancer that is metastatic or unresectable and must have had the prior treatments outlined
* Age ≥ 18 years
* Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of CA-4948 in combination with pembrolizumab in patients \< 18 years of age, children are excluded from this study, but will be eligible for future pediatric trials
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2 (Karnofsky ≥ 60%) within 28 days prior to registration
* Leukocytes ≥ 3,000/mcL
* Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mcL
* Platelets ≥ 100,000/mcL
* Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL or ≥ 5.6 mmol/L
* Criteria must be met without packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusion within the prior 2 weeks. Participants can be on stable dose of erythropoietin (≥ approximately 3 months)

A Study to Evaluate the Risk of Tumor Lysis Syndrome (TLS) in Adult Participants Receiving Oral Venetoclax in Combination With Intravenously Infused Obinutuzumab or Oral Acalabrutinib for Previously Untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia (cancer of blood cells). The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of venetoclax in combination with obinutuzumab or acalabrutinib in the treatment of CLL. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed.
Venetoclax in combination with obinutuzumab or acalabrutinib is being investigated in the treatment of CLL. Study doctors put the participants in 1 of 4 groups, called treatment arms. Participants will receive oral venetoclax in combination with intravenously (IV) infused obinutuzumab or oral acalabrutinib at in different dosing schemes as part of treatment. Approximately 170 adult participants with CLL who are being treated with venetoclax will be enrolled in the study in approximately 80 sites worldwide.
Participants in Arm A will receive oral venetoclax in combination with IV infused obinutuzumab, with a 5 week venetoclax ramp up. Participants in Arm B will receive oral venetoclax in combination with oral acalabrutinib, with a 5 week venetoclax ramp up. Participants in Arm C and Arm D will receive oral venetoclax in combination with oral acalabrutinib, with differing venetoclax ramp up periods. The total study duration is approximately 28 months.
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.
