Clinical Research Trials

Clinical trials are available for a broad range of disorders in hematology/oncology and these include treatment for cancers of the breast, brain, lung, gastrointestinal tract, skin, and prostate as well as trials in leukemia and lymphoma.

Active and Enrolling

The following trials are active and enrolling patients. Please visit the study site for more information.

Clear Cell

BrUOG 354: Nivolumab +/- Ipilimumab for Ovarian and Extra-renal Clear Cell Carcinomas

Nivolumab and Ipilimumab have shown activity as monotherapies in solid tumors and very early data suggest that nivolumab may be particularly active for ovarian clear cell carcinoma.(Hamanishi et al., 2015). Given the uniformly poor prognosis for patients with clear cell carcinoma in general, we are interested in formally evaluating this agent in all extra-renal clear cell carcinomas.

Gynecological

BrUOG 390: Neoadjuvant Treatment With Talazoparib

This study explores neoadjuvant treatment with Talazoparib for women with newly diagnosed, advanced ovarian cancer associated with a mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 (mBRCA).

Hematological Malignancies

BrUOG 345: Fractionated Gemtuzumab Ozogamicin Followed by Non-engraftment Donor Leukocyte Infusions for Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

This study includes patients with relapsed acute leukemia who have previously been treated with standard treatment that is still present and there is no curative treatment option available. Researchers are studying whether the drug Gemtuzumab Ozogamicin, followed by an infusion of blood cells called leukocytes from a donor, can stimulate the immune system to potentially fight the leukemia.

Lung

BrUOG 358: Durvalumab and Consolidation SBRT Following Chemoradiation for Locally Advanced Stage III Non-Small Cell Lung

This study will investigate the effects of the combination of Durvalumab and SBRT on stage 3 lung cancer.

BrUOG 397: NEO Rad (LOW): Neoadjuvant Low Dose Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy, Ipilimumab and Nivolumab for Patients with Resectable Stage IB – III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Phase II Brown University Oncology Research Group Trial

This single-arm phase 2 study will enroll patients with resectable and operable stage IB - III non-small cell lung cancer and treat them with pre-operative ipilimumab + nivolumab plus low-dose stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) delivered concurrently.

Prostate

BrUOG 360: A Study of Copanlisib Combined With Rucaparib in Patients With Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer

This is a single arm Phase Ib/II, open label, safety, pharmacokinetic and efficacy clinical study in adult patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Active, Not enrolling

The following studies are active but are not enrolling patients at this time.

BrUOG 291: Five Fraction Partial Breast Irradiation Using Non-invasive Image-guided Breast Brachytherapy (NIBB)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the rate of early and intermediate toxicity related to accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) delivered in a more convenient 5 fraction schedule using non-invasive image-guided breast brachytherapy (NIBB) (AccuBoost System) in women with resected, early stage breast cancer.

BrUOG 292: FOLFOX-A For Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer: A Phase II Brown University Oncology Research Group Trial

Doctors are studying the activity and side effects of FOLFOX-A in advanced (metastatic) pancreatic cancer.

BrUOG 295: Adjuvant FOLFOX-A For Resected Pancreatic Cancer: A Phase II Brown University Oncology Research Group Trial

The investigators preliminary data suggests that FOLFOX-A may have equal or superior activity as compared to FOLFIRINOX and appears to be better tolerated. Therefore, FOLFOX-A may be a better regimen in the adjuvant setting for patients with resected pancreatic cancer. This protocol will obtain preliminary data on safety and disease-free and overall survival following administration of FOLFOX-A for patients with resected pancreatic cancer.

BrUOG 299: Ixazomib, Oral Metronomic Cyclophosphamide and Dexamethasone for First-Line Treatment of Multiple Myeloma: A Phase II Brown University Oncology Group Study.

 

The goal of this study is to develop a more effective and better tolerated regimen. Ixazomib appears to have greater activity than bortezomib with less peripheral neuropathy.

BrUOG 324: Adjuvant Nivolumab and Low Dose Ipilimumab for Stage III and Resected Stage IV Melanoma: A Phase II Brown University Oncology Research Group Trial

The study will monitor the toxicity of nivolumab and low-dose ipilimumab as adjuvant therapy for patients with high-risk melanoma for about 7 months. It will also measure recurrence-free and overall survival for up to 5 years.

BrUOG 326: Vincristine Sulfate Liposome Injection (Marqibo®), Bendamustine and Rituximab-Phase I Trial in Indolent B-cell Lymphoma (BRiM)

This study evaluates addition of Vincristine Sulfate Liposome Injection (Marqibo®) to the standard regimen of Bendamustine and Rituximab in adult patients with indolent B-cell lymphoma. This is a dose-escalation study.

BrUOG 379: Phase Ib/II Trial ONC201 + Nivolumab in MSS mCRC

This is a single arm Phase Ib/II, open label, safety, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamics and efficacy study of ONC201 in combination with Opdivo (Nivolumab) in adult patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, for whom no standard therapy is available
