Tirzepatide for Weight Loss Intervention in Early-Stage Hormone Receptor Positive/HER2 Negative Breast Cancer
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to determine the proportion of patients who achieve a 5% or greater reduction in body weight by the end of the study treatment with tirzepatide, during adjuvant treatment for hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative (HR+/Her2-) breast cancer. Secondary objectives include assessing the safety and tolerability of tirzepatide for weight loss during this treatment. The feasibility of using tirzepatide for weight loss intervention will be evaluated through discontinuation rates and completion of the treatment course. Additionally, the trial will determine the 3-year invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) and 3-year distant relapse-free survival (DRFS) with the use of tirzepatide. The study will also assess changes in Body Mass Index (BMI), body fat distribution (measured via Waist/Hip Ratio (WHR) and waist circumference), and obesity-related metabolic markers (including Blood Pressure, fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose, HgbA1c, cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, IGF1, estrogen, and testosterone). Finally, the trial will monitor for circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and assess changes when using tirzepatide for weight loss in the adjuvant treatment of HR+/Her2- breast cancer. Quality of Life assessments will be obtained and exploratory objectives investigating adipokines (adiponectin, leptin) and their receptors, metabolomic pathways and immune cell metabolism will be conducted.

Testing Shorter Duration Radiation Therapy Versus the Usual Radiation Therapy in Patients With High Risk Prostate Cancer
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To compare metastasis-free survival, determined using conventional imaging, between men with high-risk prostate cancer randomized to ultrahypofractionation (stereotactic body radiation therapy [SBRT]) to those randomized to moderate hypofractionation and conventional fractionation. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare physician-reported toxicity as measured by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version (v)5 between treatment arms. II. To determine if ultrahypofractionation is non-inferior to moderate hypofractionation and conventional fractionation with respect to patient-reported urinary function (assessed by Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite [EPIC]-26 urinary domains). III. To determine if ultrahypofractionation is non-inferior to moderate hypofractionation and conventional fractionation with respect to patient-reported bowel function (assessed by EPIC-26 bowel domain). IV. To compare patient-reported fatigue (assessed by Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System [PROMIS]-Fatigue) between treatment arms. V. To compare patient-reported treatment burden (assessed by COmprehensive Score for financial Toxicity [COST]) between treatment arms. VI. To compare failure-free survival between treatment arms. VII. To compare metastasis-free survival based on molecular imaging between treatment arms. VIII. To compare overall survival between treatment arms. EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare patient-reported sexual function (assessed by EPIC-26 sexual domain) between treatment arms. II. To compare patient-reported quality of life (assessed by European Quality of Life Five Dimension Five Level Scale Questionnaire [EQ-5D-5L]) between treatment arms. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms. ARM I: Patients undergo SBRT for a total of 5 treatments over 2 weeks. Patients also undergo computed tomography (CT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on study. ARM II: Patients undergo external beam radiation treatment (EBRT) for 20-45 treatments over 4 to 9 weeks. Patients also undergo CT and/or MRI on study. Patients are followed up every 6 months for 5 years.

Evaluating the Impact of Social and Genetic Factors on Outcomes in Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Survivors
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To establish the association of social-environmental risk factors on both disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To establish the associations of individual resilience factors on DFS and OS for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. II. To establish the associations of social-environmental risk factors and individual resilience factors on quality of life (QOL) for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. III. To quantify the extent to which alterations in human gene expression could potentially mediate the effects of social-environmental risk factors and individual resilience factors on DFS, and OS for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE: I. To determine whether the relationship between social-environmental risk factors or individual resilience factors and distal outcomes may be moderated by race/ethnicity, sex and gender identity, and geography for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. OUTLINE: This is an observational study. Participants complete questionnaires about health-related quality of life and undergo collection of blood samples at baseline and 6, 12, 18, and 24 months.

ATATcH Alternating Treatment Plans for Advanced Cancer
This study is looking at the effect of alternating combination chemotherapy plus immunotherapy with immunotherapy alone during the induction phase (resulting in less frequent use of chemotherapy, once every six weeks instead of the usual every three weeks during induction) on the ability to fight your tumor. We expect that less frequent exposure to chemotherapy in this setting will control your cancer effectively while preserving your quality of life. The primary endpoint of this three-arm, parallel phase II study is the percentage of patients receiving one, two, three and four (up to six for patients with head and neck cancer) combination chemoimmunotherapy cycles. Along with, overall response rates at six weeks and the best response rate. Additionally, to record the safety and tolerability of therapy.

sFOLFOXIRI in Advanced Gastroesophageal Cancer, (SAGE)
The overall purpose of this protocol is to serve as a Single Arm Phase II trial of a four week alternating FOLFOX and FOLFIRI (sFOLFOXIRI), with or without nivolumab, in advanced human epidermal growth factor receptor two (HER2) negative gastric and esophageal cancers (GEC). This study evaluates the hypothesis that the use of sFOLFOXIRI in gastroesophageal cancer (GEC) will increase response rates beyond that expected with FOLFOX, while maintaining acceptable tolerability. The primary endpoint of this study is the objective response rate (ORR) while the key secondary endpoints include the progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse event (AE) rates. The goal of this study is to establish the activity level of sFOLFOXIRI, with the thought that this could be further developed in the metastatic and/or peri-operative space if a sufficiently interesting degree of efficacy is observed.
