The purpose of this study is to assess the taste characteristics of BMS-986165 formulations, alone and mixed, in order to develop a pediatric oral form of BMS-986165.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To compare invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) of patients with triple-negative (TNBC) or low estrogen receptor (ER)-positive and/or HER2 borderline breast cancer who have >= 1 cm residual invasive breast cancer and/or positive lymph nodes (ypN1mi, ypN1, ypN2, ypN3) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy randomized to receive 1 year of ...

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare recurrence-free survival (RFS) between patients with renal cell carcinoma randomly assigned to perioperative nivolumab in conjunction with radical or partial nephrectomy with patients randomized to surgery alone. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate for differences in recurrence-free survival associated with perioperative nivolumab compared to surgery alone ...

The investigators have built on the evidence-base of telephone counseling for smoking cessation. This pragmatic approach is designed at the intersection of scalability and intensity, for future implementation within the national tobacco quitline. In collaboration with five geographically and ethnically diverse lung cancer screening programs, the investigators will accrue smokers ...

PEPPER is a large pragmatic clinical trial to inform patient choice and balance risk tolerances of individuals who face decisions about different drugs and strategies for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) prevention after total hip (THA) and knee (TKA) replacement. Indeed, clinical equipoise exists to ethically support ...

In most clinical settings, evidence suggests it is safe to wait to give a blood transfusion. However, for those who have suffered a heart attack, there is a lack of high quality evidence to guide transfusions. This 3500 subject multi-center randomized trial will fill that void. Hospital inpatients diagnosed with ...

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether obeticholic acid (OCA; INT-747) can lead to histological improvement in fibrosis with no worsening of NASH in adults with compensated cirrhosis due to NASH.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the safety of radiotherapy (RT) with concurrent and adjuvant anti-PD-L1 therapy (MEDI4736 [durvalumab]) is safe in patients with locoregionally advanced head and neck cancer (HNC) who have a contraindication to cisplatin. (Lead-in) II. To test the hypothesis that concurrent RT and anti-PD-L1 therapy improves progression ...

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine whether cabozantinib S-malate (cabozantinib) can significantly improve progression-free survival (PFS) compared to placebo in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NET) whose disease has progressed after treatment with everolimus. II. To determine whether cabozantinib can significantly improve progression-free survival (PFS) compared to placebo in patients ...

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine whether the addition of atezolizumab to a regimen of paclitaxel, pertuzumab, and trastuzumab will improve the progression-free survival (PFS), as assessed by investigator using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria, relative to a regimen of paclitaxel, pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and placebo in patients ...
