Study for AML after it returns or resists treatment
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of medicines (decitabine/cedazuridine, venetoclax, and ivosidenib or enasidenib) in people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or hasn’t responded. It may help control the leukemia by targeting cancer cells and specific genetic changes in the leukemia.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04777084RecruitingPhase 2
Lenvatinib plus PD-1 antibody for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether a combination of lenvatinib and a PD-1/PD-L1–blocking antibody (IBI318) can shrink advanced non-small cell lung cancer and is safe to use. It targets people whose cancer has specific genetic changes or specific prior treatment history, based on three different study groups.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT04777994RecruitingPhase 1
Drug ABBV-CLS-484 for advanced cancers that lack options
This Phase 1 trial tests ABBV-CLS-484 in people with advanced or metastatic tumors when standard treatments have not worked or aren’t available. Because it’s an early study, the main goal is to find a safe dose and see how the cancer responds in different cancer types.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04778449Recruiting
Melanoma study on quality of life and lifestyle factors
This study asks people with melanoma (and certain related skin conditions) to complete questionnaires about quality of life, lifestyle, and mental well-being. Your answers can help researchers understand what affects day-to-day life and support for people with melanoma.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04783168Recruiting
