This clinical trial tests whether various web-based tools can help improve communication about hereditary cancer risk in families and decrease barriers to genetic testing for relatives of patients with hereditary cancer syndromes. Between 5% and 10% of all cancers are caused by genetic changes that are hereditary, which means that they run in families. Some kinds of cancer or certain cancers diagnosed in biological relatives may mean patients are more likely to have a genetic change. Once a genetic change is identified in a family, other biological relatives can choose to undergo testing themselves to better understand their cancer risk. The uptake of genetic testing in other biological relatives once a genetic condition is identified is about 20% to 30%. The Cascade Genetic Testing Platform is a virtual tool that seeks to overcome barriers related to logistics of family communication and improve dissemination of genetic testing information which is clinically actionable for individuals at highest risk for cancer. Using the Cascade Genetic Testing Platform may improve ways to share information about hereditary risk with biological relatives.

This clinical trial evaluates the how well a virtually delivered solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT-C) works to decrease adolescent and young adult cancer survivors' psychological distress in comparison to enhanced treatment-as-usual care. Cancer and its treatment can have immediate and long-term impacts on adolescent and young adult cancer survivor's lives, including education and employment, financial stability, sexual health, and social, romantic, and family relationships. Consequently, many adolescent and young adult cancer survivors report psychological distress, often manifesting as depression and anxiety, and may benefit from psychotherapy to improve their engagement with medical treatment and overall quality of life. SFBT-C is a theory-driven and brief hope-based psychotherapy designed for the unique psychosocial needs facing adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. Undergoing SFBT-C may work better than treatment-as-usual care for the support of psychological distress in adolescent and young adult cancer survivors.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Researchers have designed a study medicine called ifinatamab deruxtecan (also called I-DXd or MK-2400) to treat mCRPC. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive I-DXd live longer overall and live longer without the cancer growing or spreading than people who receive chemotherapy,

The purpose of this study is to find out if a new drug, called IDRX-42 (also known as GSK6042981), is effective in treating adults with a type of cancer called Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) when compared to another drug named sunitinib. The study will see if IDRX-42 works well and is safe for participants whose GIST has spread or cannot be surgically removed, and who have already taken the drug imatinib.

The purpose of this study is to find out if removing only the cancerous lymph node (known as a lymph node excision) is effective at preventing cancer from coming back in the same area of the lymph node excision. The study team is also trying to find out the side effects of this type of surgery and how much the surgery impacts quality of life.

In order to be eligible for this study, participants must have been diagnosed with metastatic melanoma and have one detected cancerous lymph node by imaging (CT/PET scan) or clinical examination, and are a candidate for lymph node excision.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell disease characterized by the growth of clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and change in disease activity of ABBV-453 in adult participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed.

ABBV-453 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of R/R MM. In Substudy 1 there will be a dose escalation phase where participants will receive various doses of ABBV-453 in combination with daratumumab + dexamethasone, to determine the best dose of ABBV-453. This will be followed by a dose expansion and selection phase where participants will receive 1 of 2 doses of ABBV-453 in combination with daratumumab + dexamethasone, or daratumumab + dexamethasone + pomalidomide (only during the expansion phase). In Substudy 2, there will be a dose escalation phase where participants will receive various doses of ABBV-453 alone. Approximately 130 adult participants with R/R MM will be enrolled in the study in approximately 40 sites worldwide.

In Substudy 1 escalation phase, participants will receive oral ABBV-453 tablets in combination with subcutaneous (SC) daratumumab injections + oral dexamethasone tablets and in the expansion phase, will receive oral ABBV-453 tablets in combination with SC daratumumab injections + oral dexamethasone tablets or daratumumab injections + oral pomalidomide + oral dexamethasone tablets. In Substudy 2, Japanese participants will receive oral ABBV-453 tablets. The total study duration is approximately 4.5 years.

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 an approved institution. The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, and side effects.

This study is a multiple cohort, multicenter, open-label Phase 1 study with dose-escalation substudies investigating intravenous (IV) BAL0891 as monotherapy, and in combination with tislelizumab or paclitaxel, to determine the safety and tolerability of increasing doses of BAL0891 in patients with advanced solid tumors or relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. An adaptive model-based design will be used to guide the dose escalation. Subject assignment to Substudy 1, 2, 3 and 4 will be finalized following approval from the investigator and sponsor.

The dose-expansion stage will be conducted with the RP2D to further evaluate the preliminary anti-tumor activity, safety, and tolerability in metastatic TNBC and GC.

This phase III trial compares the effectiveness of fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS) to usual care stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in treating patients with cancer that has spread from where it first started to the brain. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. FSRS delivers a high dose of radiation to the tumor over 3 treatments. SRS is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. FSRS may be more effective compared to SRS in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain.
