The study will test the safety and effectiveness of a new drug called TNG348 used alone or in combination with Olaparib (a PARP inhibitor.) The study is for patients who have advanced breast, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostate cancer and a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation or have an HRD positive tumor.

Researchers at Pfizer and Arvinas are conducting the TACTIVE-U studies for people with ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer who have received at least one prior round of treatment and no more than two prior rounds of treatments for advanced or metastatic disease. One of these rounds of treatment must have included a CDK4/6 inhibitor (e.g., Kisqali, Verzenio, Ibrance). The TACTIVE-U studies are looking at the safety of an oral study medicine, ARV-471 (also known as vepdegestrant), and how well it works when combined with other breast cancer medicines.

Researchers at Pfizer and Arvinas are conducting the VERITAC-2 cinical trial for people with ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced (locally advanced or metastatic) breast cancer that has profressed after previous treatment. This clinical trial is specifically for people who have already been treated with CDK4/6 inhibitor* therapy in combination with hormone therapy for their locoregional recurrent/metastatic disease.

* CDK4/6 inhibitors include medications called palbociclib (IBRANCE®), ribociclib (KISQALI®), and abemaciclib (Verzenio®).

This study is looking at the effectiveness of combining a PARP inhibitor called niraparib and an immunotherapy called dostarlimab for treating people with an inherited BRCA mutation (found with genetic testing) or a tumor mutation (found through tumor testing) who have breast, pancreatic, ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer that is metastatic or advanced and cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable).

Researchers are studying the affects of this breast cancer vaccine on the immune system in two groups of people:

• For people diagnosed with stage 2 or stage 3 triple-negative breast cancer at high risk for recurrence.
• People with an inherited mutation in BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 who are planning to undergo a risk-reducing mastectomy.

This research involves studying a drug called AZD9574 on its own and in combination with other anti-cancer drugs in people with advanced cancer that has come back or progressed. AZD9574 is a type of targeted therapy known as a PARP inhibitor. The study aims to understand the safety, tolerance, how the drug moves in the body, how it affects the body, and its initial effectiveness.

This study will compare robotic-assisted nipple sparing mastectomy (NSM) to standard surgery NSM for women with early-stage breast cancer. Eligible women will be randomly placed into one of two groups and either undergo the robotic-assisted procedure or undergo the standard of care open surgery for NSM. Participants will be followed for 5 years.

The TAPUR Study aims to describe the safety and efficacy of Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved, targeted anticancer drugs prescribed for treatment of patients with advanced cancer that has a potentially actionable genomic alteration.

This study is looking whether the drug Talazoparib (also known as Talzenna) is safe and effective for treating people with advanced solid cancers (including breast, gastric, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate or other solid tumors) in people with an inherited mutation (found through genetic testing) or an acquired mutation (found with biomarker testing) in ATM, ATR, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, BAP1, BARD1, CDK12, CHEK1, CHEK2, IDH1, IDH2, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, RAD50, RAD51, RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D, RAD54L or other genes.

This study will test how safe and effective the experimental drug NUV-868 is by itself and in combination with a PARP inhibitor in people with advanced solid tumors. The first part of the study will include people with any solid tumor type, and the second part will include people with triple-negative breast, ovarian, pancreatic or prostate cancers only. 

The purpose of this study is to see whether the combination of melphalan, BCNU, hydroxocobalamin, ascorbic acid, and autologous (self) bone marrow stem cell infusion, is safe and effective for treating patients with advanced pancreatic cancer or Stage IV, HER2-negative breast cancer who have a BRCA1, BRCA2 or PALB2 inherited mutation. All of these treatments are given intravenously (by vein). This study is open to people who have already received a PARP inhibitor, as well as those who have not. There are no restrictions on the number of prior treatments a patient has received before enrolling.

This study will look at how well the drugs Niraparib (a PARP inhibitor) and Dostarlimab (an immunotherapy) treat early-stage breast cancer in people with an inherited BRCA1, BRCA2 or PALB2 mutation.  

PETRA is studying a new PARP inhibitor AZD5305 taken either alone or combined with other treatments in people with advanced ovarian, breast, prostate or pancreatic cancer with an inherited or tumor mutation in: BRCA1/2, PALB2, RAD51C or RAD51D. The treaments participants receive will depend on their cancer type, mutation and when they join the study.

This study will look at how well a new oral targeted therapy known as an ATR inhibitor works on advanced or metastatic solid tumors with mutations in genes linked to DNA damage repair. The study will look at response to treatment with the drug ART0380 in combination with the chemotherapy agent, gemcitabine. 

This is a study for patients with metastatic breast cancer who do not have an inherited mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 but who are are found to have a BRCA1 or BRCA2 acquired tumor mutation (somatic mutation) found through liquid biopsy. Patients are treated with talazoparib, a well-tolerated oral PARP inhibitor that targets the BRCA1/2 mutation to determine whether this treatment (which is already approved for germline BRCA1/2 carriers) is effective in this population.

Genetic testing can be helpful to identify potential targeted treatments for some patients with metastatic cancer. But some patients have a hard time getting easy and fast testing. This study is looking at using web options to increase access to testing AND patients in this study can get genetic counseling and testing in their home!
