The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of GIGA-564 and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) level(s) of GIGA-564 in participants with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumor malignancies.
This phase II trial studies how well inotuzumab ozogamicin works in treating younger patients with B-lymphoblastic lymphoma or CD22 positive B acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called inotuzumab, linked to a toxic agent called …
Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder of the blood. SCD causes red blood cells (RBCs) to die early. This can lead to a shortage of healthy cells. SCD and other blood disorders can be managed with drugs or cured with a bone marrow transplant. Researchers want to …
Background Prostate cancer may return after treatment in 30,000 to 50,000 people each year. There is no clear best way to treat these people. Better treatments are needed. Objective To test a study drug (enzalutamide), both alone and combined with a second drug (PDS01ADC), in people with prostate cancer that …
