Cancer Clinical Trials

SLUCare specialists in hematology, oncology and cellular therapy are committed to leadership in clinical research programs. As the faculty of Saint Louis University School of Medicine, our staff regularly conducts clinical trials of new medicines and technologies. The following studies are now seeking participants.

Rituximab With or Without Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Patients With Minimal Residual Disease-Negative Mantle Cell Lymphoma in First Complete Remission

ECOG-ACRIN/ EA4151 - Dr. Sagun Goyal

A randomized phase III trial of consolidation with autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation followed by maintenance rituximab vs. maintenance rituximab alone for patients with mantle cell lymphoma in minimal residual disease-negative first complete remission

Randomized, Open-Label, Phase 3 Study of Navitoclax in Combination with Ruxolitinib versus Best Available Therapy in Subjects with Relapsed/Refractory Myelofibrosis (TRANSFORM-2/M20-178)

AbbVie/ M20-178 - Dr. Sagun Goyal

Navitoclax is an investigational drug (not yet approved) being developed for the treatment of Myelofibrosis (MF). The study has 2 arms - A and B. In Arm A, participants will receive navitoclax in combination with ruxolitinib. In Arm B, participants will receive the best available therapy (BAT) for MF. Adult participants with a diagnosis of relapsed/refractory (R/R) MF will be enrolled.

A longitudinal observational study of the natural history and management of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Target PharmaSolutions/TargetHCC - Dr. John Richart

TARGET-HCC is a longitudinal, observational study of patients being managed for HCC in usual clinical practice. TARGET-HCC will create a research registry of participants with HCC within academic and community real-world practices in order to assess the safety and effectiveness of the entire spectrum of current and future therapies across diverse populations.

Immunological Response to Infection, Vaccination, and Disease.

Dr. James Brien

A study to determine immune response to the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in patients who have blood cancers who will be or have been treated with bone marrow transplant. 

Randomized, Open-Label, 2-Arm, Multicenter, Phase 3 Study of Venetoclax and Azacitidine Versus Best Supportive Care as Maintenance Therapy for Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in First Remission After Conventional Chemotherapy.

AbbVie/M19-708 - Dr. Nabeel Rajeh

This study will be conducted in two parts. Part 1 will be the Dose Confirmation portion to determine recommended Phase 3 dose (RPTD) of venetoclax in combination with AZA. Part 3 will be conducted in 2 phases - Dose Finding portion to determine RPTD of venetoclax in combination with CC-486 and Randomization portion to evaluate if venetoclax in combination with CC-486 as maintenance therapy improves relapse-free survival (RFS) compared to CC-486.

A Phase 3, Open-Label, Randomized Study Evaluating Metastatic Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer Treatment Using PSMA [Lu-177]-PNT2002 Therapy After Second-line Hormonal Treatment (SPLASH)

POINT BioPharma/PBP-301 - Dr. Medhat Osman

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of [Lu-177]-PNT2002 in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have progressed following treatment with androgen receptor axis-targeted therapy (ARAT).

A Phase III, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind, Multi-center, International Study of Durvalumab With Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for the Treatment of Patients With Unresected Stage I/II, Lymph-node Negative Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

AstraZenica/PACIFIC4 - Dr. Jeevin Shahi

This is a Phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multi-center study assessing the efficacy and safety of durvalumab with SoC SBRT versus placebo with SoC SBRT in patients with unresected clinical Stage I/II lymph node-negative (T1 to T3N0M0) NSCLC.

Just-in-time: Evaluating a decision-based algorithm for Plerixafor usage in stem cell mobilization in an outpatient transplant center.

Dr. Alexander Babic

A study to evaluate stem cell collection times for patients seen at the Outpatient Bone Marrow Transplant Center at SSM Health Saint Louis University Hospital

Assessment of Chimerism and Relapse Post Bone Marrow/Hematopoetic Cell Transplant (HCT) Using AlloHeme Test 

CareDx/ACROBAT - Dr. Nabeel Rajeh

AlloHeme is a chimerism test service that utilizes NGS technology to analyze SNP loci to quantify donor and recipient cells by measuring genomic DNA. Cell selection from blood and bone marrow samples is applied to evaluate chimerism in specific cell subtypes that are relevant to AML and MDS diseases.

Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Magrolimab in Combination With Azacitidine Versus Physician's Choice of Venetoclax in Combination With Azacitidine or Intensive Chemotherapy in Previously Untreated Adults With TP53 Mutant Acute Myeloid Leukemia (GS-US 546-5857)

Gilead Sciences/Enhance-2 - Dr. Nabeel Rajeh

The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of magrolimab + azacitidine versus venetoclax + azacitidine in adults with previously untreated TP53 mutant acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are appropriate for non-intensive therapy as measured by overall survival (OS).

A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Magrolimab versus Placebo in Combination with Venetoclax and Azacitidine in Newly Diagnosed, Previously Untreated Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia Who Are Ineligible for Intensive Chemotherapy (GS-US-590-6154)

Gilead Sciences/Enhance-3 - Dr. Nabeel Rajeh

The primary objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy of magrolimab + venetoclax + azacitidine versus placebo + venetoclax + azacitidine in participants with previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are ineligible for intensive chemotherapy.

Reaching Rural Cancer Survivors who Smoke Using Test-Based Cessation Interventions

Alliance/A211901 - Dr. John Dombrowski

This phase III trial compares the effect of text-based cessation intervention to a manual in helping rural cancer patients who smoke, quit. Text-based scheduled gradual reduction may reduce the frequency of cigarette use to zero and may be effective in quitting smoking.

A Phase 1b/3 double-blind randomized, active-controlled, 3-stage, biomarker adaptive study of tazemetostat or placebo in combination with lenalidomide plus rituximab in subjects with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma

Epizyme/EZH-302 - Dr. Nabeel Rajeh

This is a multicenter, double-blind, active-controlled, randomized, 3-stage, biomarker enrichment design featuring early futility stopping and sample-size re-estimation with safety run-in designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tazemetostat in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab (R2) in subjects with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL), who have completed at least 1 prior systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or chemoimmunotherapy.
