Study Objectives Therapeutic solutions to treat solid tumors that are resistant to conventional treatments are now limited. Laboratory data in animals (on pediatric tumors such as brain tumors, sarcomas and neuroblastomas) have shown that the combination of irinotecan (HIF1alpha inhibitor) and rapamycin (mTOR inhibitor) allowed to block development of blood vessels in the tumor and could, in some cases, stop its progression. This drug combination has already been tested in adult patients with refractory tumors and seems to give encouraging results with stabilization of the tumor. The dose and toxicity of irinotecan and rapamycin are known when these drugs are administered separately and in a context different from that of refractory tumors. RAPIRI is a phase I clinical trial whose principal objectives are to determine the maximum dose at which these two molecules may be administered and to assess the safety of this new combination of drugs.

Study Objectives This exploratory clinical study is designed to obtain pre-therapeutic imaging assessments using positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in 21 patients with Stage IIIB/IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and an early post therapy assessment at baseline and at various early time points (2 weeks in 7 patients, 4 weeks in 7 patients, and 6 weeks in 7 patients) after institution of erlotinib (anti-EGFR) (Tarceva) and bevacizumab (anti-VEGF) (Avastin) for first-line treatment of Stage IIIB/IV or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC. The proposed PET imaging and blood derived biomarkers trial is a companion study to an approved therapeutic trial (IRB# 24377). The therapeutic trial of erlotinib (Tarceva) and bevacizumab (Avastin) for first-line treatment of Stage IIIB/IV or recurrent lung cancer with drug costs exceeding $150,000 per patient/year (study drug budget exceeds $5 million) was funded for study at the HCI and the HICCP, statewide trial network. The proposed imaging study has been funded by the University of Utah Synergy Grant Program. The clinical imaging biomarkers will include an assessment of tumor metabolism \[Banrasch 1986, Frauwirth 2002, Garber 2006, Kelloff 2005, Pauwels 1998, Semenza 2001, Smith 1999, Smith 2000, Sokoloff 1977, Warburg 1956, Weber 1977A, Weber\] (dynamic FDG-PET); tumor proliferation \[Rasey 2002,Shields 2001,Shields 1998, Vesselle 2002, Schwartz 2003\] (dynamic FLT-PET); tumor blood flow and perfusion( H215O-PET)\[Lodge 2000\]; and tumor blood volume of distribution ( H215O -PET)\[Lodge 2000\] in the same patient at baseline and then in the same patient at one of the post therapy time points (2 weeks, 4 weeks, or 6 weeks). The investigators hypothesize that by using a set of imaging derived biomarkers and biomarkers from blood they can predict response, either prior to or at an earlier time point than would normally be determined with standard imaging techniques, in patients with lung cancer receiving combined bevacizumab and erlotinib. Conditions: Cancer, Non Small Cell Lung Cancer Intervention / Treatment: RADIATION: PET Imaging, DRUG: Erlotinib, DRUG: Bevacizumab Location: United States Study Design and Phases Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL Phase: PHASE1 Primary Purpose: DIAGNOSTIC Allocation: NA Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP Masking: NONE
Inclusion Criteria: * All subjects must be enrolled in the the therapeutic trial (IRB # 24377) with non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with combined erlotinib (Tarceva) (150 mg/day)and bevacizumab (Avastin) (15mg/kg q 21 days) as first line therapy. * Adults must have radiological evidence of Stage IIIB/IV or recurrent non-squamous non-small cell carcinoma. The Stage IIIB/IV or Recurrent lesion must be in a location that includes a large arterial vessel to allow for determination of the H215O arterial input function. A previous histological diagnosis of NSCLC would be required prior to institution of therapy. Only clinically indicated biopsy and/or surgery for determination of Stage IIIB/IV or recurrent disease will be done and surgery is incidental to inclusion in the protocol. * Patients must be >= 18 years for inclusion in this study. Since there is no experience with [F-18]FLT in children and it would be inappropriate to study individuals under the age of 18 until more safety data is available. * After entry into the study, patients are expected to be followed for at least 2 months as part of standard of care. * All patients, or their legal guardians, must sign a written informed consent and HIPAA authorization in accordance with institutional guidelines. * The patient, if female, must be postmenopausal for a minimum of one year or surgically sterile, or on one of the following methods of birth control for a minimum of one month prior to entry into this study: IUD, oral contraceptives, Depo-Provera or Norplant. These criteria can be waived at the discretion of the investigator if the patient's tumor is considered life threatening and the one month wait required is not in the best interest of the patient. Negative pregnancy test is accepted. * Pre-treatment laboratory tests for patients receiving [F-18]FLT must be performed within 21 days prior to study entry. These must be less than 4 times below or above the upper or lower limit range for the respective laboratory test. The patients have Stage IIIB/IV or recurrent NSCLC and therefore many routine laboratory tests may not be within the typical normal range. Using a factor of 4 times above or below the upper or lower value for the normal range for laboratory test will assure ability to recruit patients and maintain safety. In those instances where a value of 4X above the normal range would be inappropriate for inclusion (prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time) then a value of 2.5X will be used for these two laboratory tests. In those instances when the prothrombin time or partial thromboplastin time are greater than 2.5X the upper limit of normal then such a patient would not be enrolled. The 4X value will be used for all laboratory values except prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time which cannot be above or below 2.5 times the upper or lower limit of normal (Appendix E, [F-18]FLT Laboratory Study Results). A negative serum pregnancy test is required within 2 days prior to the PET studies. * Pre-treatment radiological clinical scans/studies (Gd- enhanced MRI or CT to document Stage IIIB/IV or recurrent NSCLC) must be performed within 30 days of study entry. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients will be receiving erlotinib (Tarceva) (150 mg/day)and bevacizumab (Avastin) (15mg/kg q 21 days) as part of the therapeutic trial. Enrollment may not occur if the patient does not meet the enrollment criteria for the therapeutic trial * Patients with known allergic or hypersensitivity reactions to previously administered radiopharmaceuticals. Patients with significant drug or other allergies or autoimmune diseases may be enrolled at the Investigator's discretion. * Patients who are pregnant or lactating or who suspect they might be pregnant. * Adult patients who require monitored anesthesia for PET scanning. * HIV positive patients due to the previous toxicity noted with FLT. * Claustrophobia or inability to remain stationary within the PET scanner for 90 minutes.

Study Objectives This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of autologous T-antigen-presenting cells (T-APC) vaccine following therapeutic autologous lymphocytes (CTL) and cyclophosphamide in treating patients with metastatic melanoma. Aldesleukin may stimulate lymphocytes, such as CTL, to kill melanoma cells. Treating lymphocytes with aldesleukin in the laboratory may help the lymphocytes kill more tumor cells when they are put back in the body. Vaccines made from melanoma antigen may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells and may boost the effect of the CTL. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving T-APC vaccine after CTL and cyclophosphamide may be an effective treatment for melanoma Conditions: Recurrent Melanoma, Stage IV Melanoma Intervention / Treatment: DRUG: cyclophosphamide, BIOLOGICAL: aldesleukin, BIOLOGICAL: autologous tumor cell vaccine, OTHER: laboratory biomarker analysis, OTHER: immunologic technique, OTHER: immunohistochemistry staining method, GENETIC: polymerase chain reaction, BIOLOGICAL: therapeutic autologous lymphocytes Location: United States Study Design and Phases Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL Phase: PHASE1 Primary Purpose: TREATMENT Allocation: NA Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP Masking: NONE

Study Objectives The purpose of this study is to determine if a medication called mannitol, can help the kidney maintain its function after kidney surgery. Mannitol is used to cause an increase in urine production (it is a diuretic). For many years, mannitol has been given to patients in the hope it would improve the kidney's circulation, and in doing so reduce the impact of the surgery on the kidney. Mannitol is given during the surgery before the blood supply to the kidney is stopped. The blood supply to the kidney is stopped in order to minimize any blood loss during the removal of the tumor, and also to assist the surgeons view of the kidney anatomy. Once the tumor is removed the blood supply to the kidney is resumed. Sometimes a side effect of this temporary reduction in blood supply to the kidney is the loss of some kidney function. This may happen either in the short term (right away) or long term (months or years later). In studies done on animals, mannitol was able to lessen this damage to kidney function. However, no human study has ever confirmed that mannitol has the same helpful effect in humans. There is some suggestion that it may have no effect. Because sufficient research has yet to be done on humans, many surgeons do not give mannitol. A recent study, conducted at Memorial Sloan Kettering which looked back at patients who had undergone partial nephrectomies, an operation where only the portion of the kidney that contains the tumor is removed and enables the normal, unaffected portion of the kidney to be preserved. The results of this study demonstrated no significant difference in kidney function when the investigators compared patients who were given mannitol to those who were not. The investigators hope that this study will help clarify the effectiveness or not of mannitol on kidney function. During the surgery to remove the kidney tumor, patients will receive either mannitol or a placebo. A placebo, is a harmless medication that has no effects. The impact of mannitol compared to the placebo will be assessed by routine blood tests and imaging (kidney scan) 6 months after your surgery.

Study Objectives RATIONALE: Radioactive drugs, such as iodobenzylguanidine meta-I131, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. A stem cell transplant may be able to replace the cells that were destroyed by iodobenzylguanidine meta-i131 and topotecan hydrochloride.

Study Objectives The increasing use of anthracyclines and taxanes in the adjuvant, neoadjuvant and first-line metastatic settings, led to a raise of patients presenting with metastatic breast cancer after treatment with these agents. Options for the treatment of patients who have progressed after an anthracycline and a taxane are limited. The high level of in-vitro synergy of vinflunine combined with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) together with the good tolerance and the encouraging response rate observed while combining IV vinflunine to oral capecitabine make it a promising combination to investigate further in a phase III trial. This phase III trial will evaluate the effectiveness and the safety profile of such combination for the treatment of patient with advanced breast cancer previously treated with or resistant to anthracycline and taxane resistant.

Study Objectives The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether adding olanzapine 5mg to standard antiemetic medication can significantly reduce chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in breast cancer patients receiving emetogenic chemotherapy regimens such as anthracycline with cyclophosphamide-based chemotherapy and platinum-based chemotherapy. To help clinicians prescribe antiemetic medications in a more patient-centered, evidence-based and cost-effective manner, we've developed the world's first validated risk-stratification tool for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) and because of this, it is now possible to perform a trial of personalized precision antiemetic therapy for breast cancer patients. Despite widespread antiemetic use, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains among the most feared and expected side effects of chemotherapy for breast cancer. Inadequately controlled CINV can significantly reduce a patient's quality of life, impair functional activity, lead to chemotherapy dose delays and reductions, and even discontinuation of treatment. The merit of current antiemetic medications is based on their ability to control chemotherapy-induced vomiting, but not necessarily nausea, and nausea is the major issue for breast cancer patients. With olanzapine demonstrating significant promise in preventing acute and delayed nausea, the investigators are proposing to evaluate guideline-recommended aprepitant-based triple regimen compared to the same regimen plus olanzapine (5 mg) for patients at high personal risk for CINV. For patients at low personal risk for CINV the investigators will also evaluate guideline-recommended double antiemetic regimen compared to the same regimen plus olanzapine (5 mg).

Conditions for eligibility for patients with resected Stage III breast cancer (Cohort B) * Patients must have undergone either a total mastectomy or a lumpectomy. * Patients must have completed one of the following procedures for evaluation of pathologic nodal status. * Sentinel lymphadenectomy followed by removal of additional non-sentinel lymph nodes, or * Axillary lymphadenectomy without SN isolation procedure. * The interval between the last surgery (for breast cancer treatment or staging) and study entry must be no more than 84 days. * By pathologic evaluation, ipsilateral nodes must be pN2 or pN3. * For patients who undergo lumpectomy, the margins of the resected specimen must be histologically free of invasive tumor and DCIS as determined by the local pathologist. If pathologic examination demonstrates tumor at the line of resection, additional operative procedures may be performed to obtain clear margins. If tumor is still present at the resected margin after re-excision(s), the patient must undergo total mastectomy to be eligible. (Patients with margins positive for LCIS are eligible without additional resection.) * For patients who undergo mastectomy, margins must be free of gross residual tumor. Patients with microscopic positive margins are eligible. Conditions for patient eligibility (ALL patients) * The patient must have consented to participate and must have signed and dated an IRB-approved consent form that conforms to federal and institutional guidelines. * Patients must be female. * The patient must be greater than or equal to 18 years. * The patient's ECOG performance status must be 0 or 1. * The tumor must be invasive adenocarcinoma of the breast on histologic examination. * The breast cancer must be determined to be HER2-positive prior to study entry. Assays performed using FISH require gene amplification. Assays using IHC require a strongly positive (3+) staining score. * At the time of study entry, blood counts must meet the following criteria: * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) must be greater than/equal to 1200/mm3. * Platelet count must be greater than/equal to 100,000/mm3. * Hemoglobin must be greater than/equal to 10 g/dL. * The following criteria for evidence of adequate hepatic function must be met: * total bilirubin must be less than/equal to ULN for the lab unless the patient has a grade 1 bilirubin elevation (greater than ULN to 1.5 x ULN) due to Gilbert's disease or similar syndrome involving slow conjugation of bilirubin; and * alkaline phosphatase must be less than 2.5 x ULN for the lab; and * AST must be less than/equal to 1.5 x ULN for the lab. * Alkaline phosphatase and AST may not both be greater than the ULN. For example, if the alkaline phosphatase is greater than the ULN but less than/equal to 2.5 x ULN, then the AST must be less than/equal to the ULN. If the AST is greater than the ULN but less than/equal to 1.5 x ULN, then the alkaline phosphatase must be less than/equal to ULN. * Patients with AST or alkaline phosphatase greater than ULN are eligible for inclusion in the study if liver imaging (CT, MRI, or PET scan) does not demonstrate metastatic disease, and has adequate hepatic function. * Patients with either skeletal pain or alkaline phosphatase that is greater than ULN but less than/equal to 2.5 x ULN are eligible for inclusion in the study if a bone scan or PET scan does not demonstrate metastatic disease.

Study Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate whether an investigational drug called sunitinib malate is safe and effective in treating metastatic melanoma in patients with KIT mutations. KIT is a gene that "codes for" (contains the genetic code that the body uses to make) a protein on the surface of cells in your body that is important in cell growth and cell division. The KIT protein seems to play a role in abnormal cell growth seen in acute leukemia, germ cell tumors, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), and certain melanomas. Melanomas that arise on acral skin (palms, soles, nail beds), mucosal membranes, and chronically sun damaged skin have recently been found to frequently contain mutations or increased copy numbers of the KIT gene. Your tumor tissue has previously been tested and has been found to contain abnormalities in the KIT gene. Sunitinib malate is drug that has been shown to inhibit the activity of the KIT protein. The FDA approved sunitinib in 2006 for patients with GIST. It has been shown that sunitinib malate works in these patients because of its activity against the KIT protein. The FDA also approved Sunitinib malate in 2006 for the treatment of metastatic kidney cancer, where its effectiveness is probably due to its ability to block a different set of proteins. Sunitinib malate has not been approved by the FDA for the treatment of metastatic melanoma.

Study Objectives This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenvatinib mesylate when given together with paclitaxel in treating patients with endometrial, ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back or grown. Lenvatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking a protein needed for cell growth and may block the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving lenvatinib mesylate and paclitaxel together may work better in treating patients with endometrial, ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.

Study Objectives Rationale: Seroma formation and its sequelae form the mainstay of complications in breast cancer surgery. Seroma has an incidence of 3% to 85%. Complications vary from delayed wound healing, infection, skin flap necrosis, patient discomfort and repeated visits to the out patient clinic. The key to reducing seroma formations seems to partly lie in the obliteration of dead space. The use of electrocautery has been demonstrated to increase seroma formation following mastectomy, however no other surgical devices (laser scalpel, argon diathermy and ultrasonic scalpel) or substances have proven to be superior in seroma reduction. No prospective randomized controlled trials have been able to demonstrate which techniques are superior in reducing seroma and as a consequence patient discomfort in patients undergoing mastectomy. In a previous retrospective observational study these investigators demonstrated that mastectomy flap fixation significantly reduced seroma formation and the number of seroma aspirations. In a pilot study that was recently performed in one of the investigators hospitals, ARTISS tissue glue was used for skin flap fixation and showed promising results. The investigators hypothesize that obliteration of the dead space following mastectomy will significantly reduce seroma formation, its complications and the discomfort it causes patients undergoing mastectomy.

Study Objectives This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of gemcitabine when given together with radiation therapy and cisplatin in treating patients with cervical cancer that has not spread beyond the pelvis. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining cisplatin with gemcitabine may make the tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy and may kill more tumor cells.

Study Objectives 70% of breast cancers that occur in postmenopausal women rely on the hormone oestrogen to grow and are likely to respond to hormone treatment. This type of treatment reduces the amount of oestrogen in the body, slowing the growth of cancer or stopping it altogether. One type of hormone treatment, aromatase inhibitors (AIs), works by stopping the body from making oestrogen. Currently, women with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer that is not being controlled by one class of AI are switched to the other class of AI. The reason for this is that some cancer cells can become resistant to one class but are still sensitive to the other class. However, oestrogen can be made in the body by two pathways and AIs block only one of these pathways. A new drug called Irosustat can reduce the production of oestrogen in the body by blocking the second pathway. This study is investigating whether adding Irosustat to AI treatment i.e. blocking both pathways at the same time, can further reduce the amount of oestrogen in the body and therefore control the breast cancer better. 27 postmenopausal women with oestrogen receptor positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer that is not being controlled by their current AI treatment will be recruited in this study from 9 United Kingdom (UK) hospitals. Eligible patients will receive 40mg of Irosustat once daily in addition to the AI on which they progressed. Patients will receive Irosustat for as long as it controls their cancer or until they have side effects that stop them from taking treatment. Patients will be seen monthly for the first 6 months and every 3 months thereafter. Participating patients will also be given the option to take part in the exploratory part of this study by donating tissue and blood samples.

Study Objectives The purpose of this study is to better understand how to use celecoxib, a popular drug widely used for arthritis, for head and neck cancer patients. Some doctors believe that celecoxib may have helpful effects when used for head and neck cancer. Celecoxib has been shown to prevent some cancers in animals. It has also been used to make standard chemotherapy and radiation work better in both animals and humans. However, all of the previous studies focused on tumors outside the head and neck region. To better understand how to use celecoxib for head and neck cancer patients, doctors at MSKCC are studying the effects of the drug on certain chemicals in the body that are thought to be important for cancer treatment. This study aims to measure how celecoxib affects those chemicals, which can be found in the tumor, blood, and urine of patients with head and neck cancer. Although celecoxib is already used to treat arthritis, this study will be the first to test the drug in head and neck cancer patients.

Study Objectives RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT) helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the stem cells from an unrelated donor, that do not exactly match the patient's blood, are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells.

Study Objectives This randomized pilot clinical trial is studying the side effects and how well giving temozolomide and cixutumumab together with combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving temozolomide and cixutumumab together with combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.

Study Objectives The purpose of this study is to find out whether the new drug PX-866 will slow the growth of your glioblastoma multiforme. Conditions: Glioblastoma Intervention / Treatment: DRUG: PX-866 Location: Canada Study Design and Phases Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL Phase: PHASE2 Primary Purpose: TREATMENT Allocation: NA Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP Masking: NONE
Inclusion Criteria: * Patients must have histologically confirmed diagnosis of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), with recurrent or progressive disease following or during primary treatment not curable with standard therapies. * All patients must have formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue available for translational studies. * Presence of bidimensionally measurable enhancing lesions on CT or MRI, with at least one lesion with a minimum dimension of 1 cm x 1 cm (i.e. both dimensions must be >= 1.0 cm). Baseline CT or MRI must be done within 14 days prior to registration. * ECOG performance of 0, 1 or 2. * Age >= 18 years. Previous Therapy Chemotherapy: Patients may have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy and/or concurrent chemoradiation as part of primary therapy, but must have received no therapy for recurrent/ progressive GBM (i.e. PX-866 must be first treatment for recurrence/ progression). A minimum of 28 days since the last dose of chemotherapy must have elapsed prior to registration. Targeted Therapy: No prior therapy with a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3K) inhibitor. Other targeted agents are permissible provided they were given as part of front line treatment. A minimum of 56 days (8 weeks) must have elapsed since last day for anti-angiogenic therapy and minimum of 28 days for other targeted agents. Radiation: Patients may have had prior radiation therapy provided at least 28 days have elapsed from the day of the last fraction of radiation to the date of registration. * Previous Surgery: Previous surgery is permitted provided that wound healing has occurred and at least 14 days have elapsed prior to registration. *1.7 Laboratory Requirements (must be done within 7 days prior to registration) Hematology: Granulocytes (AGC) >= 1.5 x 109/L Platelets >= 100 x 109/L Chemistry: Serum creatinine <= 1.5 x UNL Total bilirubin <= 1.5 x UNL ALT and AST <= 1.5 x UNL Glucose <= 8.9 mmol/L (<= Grade 1) * Women must be post menopausal, surgically sterile or use a reliable form of contraception while on study and for 30 days after discontinuing therapy. Women of childbearing potential must have a pregnancy test taken and proven negative within 7 days prior to registration and must not be lactating. * Patient consent must be obtained according to local Institutional and/or University Human Experimentation Committee requirements. It will be the responsibility of the local participating investigators to obtain the necessary local clearance, and to indicate in writing to the NCIC CTG Study Coordinator that such clearance has been obtained, before the trial can commence in that centre. Because of differing requirements, a standard consent form for the trial will not be provided but a sample form is provided. A copy of the initial full board REB approval and approved consent form must be sent to the central office. The patient must sign the consent form prior to registration (exception for translations). Please note that the consent form for this study must contain a statement which gives permission for the NCIC CTG and monitoring agencies to review patient records Patients who cannot give informed consent (i.e. mentally incompetent patients, or those physically incapacitated such as comatose patients) are not to be recruited into the study. Patients competent but physically unable to sign the consent form may have the document signed by their nearest relative or legal guardian. Each patient will be provided with a full explanation of the study before consent is requested. * Patients must be accessible for treatment and follow-up. Patients registered on this trial must be treated and followed at the participating centre. This implies there must be reasonable geographical limits (for example: 2 hour's driving distance) placed on patients being considered for this trial. Investigators must assure themselves that the patients registered on this trial will be available for complete documentation of the treatment, adverse events, response assessment and follow-up. * In accordance with NCIC CTG policy, protocol treatment is to begin within 2 working days of patient registration. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who have other active malignancies (i.e. documented by imaging, clinical exam or marker) are to be excluded. (Please call NCIC CTG if any questions about the interpretation of this criterion). * Known HIV-positive patients. * Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus. * Patients should be on a stable dose of steroid (i.e. no change in dose for 2 weeks prior to registration) when entered on study. Patients recently started on steroids or whose steroid dose was increased in the recent past should not be started on protocol treatment until at least 2 weeks have passed from the time of steroid dose increment or initiation. Under these circumstances, baseline CT or MRI scan for purposes of assessment of response to protocol treatment should be done at the time of initiation of protocol therapy (i.e., these patients must be re-imaged to control for steroid effects). Note: The idea behind this is to restrict entry to a subset of patients who are not rapidly changing: especially rapidly deteriorating. If a patient being worked up for the trial appears to need to have steroid introduced or increased, the patient should be treated as is medically appropriate (i.e., have the steroid introduced or increased). Steroid should NOT be withheld if clinically indicated just so that patients can be registered on study! * Patients with upper gastrointestinal or other conditions that would preclude compliance or absorption of oral medication are not eligible. * Patients with active or uncontrolled infections, or with serious illnesses or medical conditions which would not permit the patient to be managed according to the protocol. * Patients are not eligible if they have a known hypersensitivity to the study drugs or their components. * Patients who have had prior treatment with a PI3 kinase inhibitor.

Study Objectives This randomized phase III trial is studying dexamethasone to see how well it works compared to prednisone during induction therapy. This trial is also studying methotrexate and leucovorin calcium to see how well they work compared to methotrexate alone during maintenance therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, prednisone, methotrexate, and leucovorin calcium, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Study Objectives The SABR-ATAC trial (Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy and anti-TGFB Antibody Combination) is a phase I/II trial that studies the side effects and efficacy of fresolimumab, an anti-transforming growth factor beta (TGFB) antibody, when given with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy in patients with stage IA-IB non-small cell lung cancer. Fresolimumab may inhibit radiation side effects and block tumor growth through multiple mechanisms. Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR), also known as stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), is a specialized form of radiation therapy that precisely delivers high dose radiation directly to tumors, thus killing tumor cells and minimizing damage to normal tissue. Giving fresolimumab with SABR may work better in treating patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer than treating with SABR alone. Conditions: Stage IA Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma, Stage IB Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma Intervention / Treatment: BIOLOGICAL: Fresolimumab, RADIATION: Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Location: United States Study Design and Phases Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL Phase: PHASE1, PHASE2 Primary Purpose: TREATMENT Allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP Masking: NONE

Study Objectives The trial is designed as a multi-center, open label Phase 2 trial that investigates the efficacy and safety of Sym004 in subjects with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (SCCHN). Subjects included must have responded to previous anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (anti-EGFR) monoclonal antibody-based therapy and subsequently become resistant to that therapy. It is believed that Sym004 has the potential to induce tumor responses and provide a superior treatment option to subjects with advanced SCCHN. Symphogen was the sponsor for planning/conducting and reporting results for this trial. Conditions: Carcinoma, Squamous Cell of Head and Neck Intervention / Treatment: DRUG: Sym004 Location: Belgium, Germany, France Study Design and Phases Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL Phase: PHASE2 Primary Purpose: TREATMENT Allocation: NA Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP Masking: NONE
Inclusion Criteria: * Histologically confirmed diagnosis initially or at relapse of SCCHN of the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx or larynx * Recurrent and/or metastatic SCCHN not amenable to curative treatment with surgery and/or (chemo)radiation * Previous treatment with an anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody (mAb) in the palliative setting either as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy or radiotherapy and showing: * Documented clinical benefit or response for at least 8 weeks (PR, CR or SD) on the anti-EGFR mAb-based therapy and * Documented disease progression (verified by computed tomography [CT] scan or magnetic resonance imaging [MRI] according to RECIST (1.1) during or within 12 weeks following the last administration of anti-EGFR mAb * Accessible tumor for biopsy and subject acceptance of repeat tumor biopsies * Other protocol-defined inclusion criteria could apply Exclusion Criteria: * More than 2 lines of prior chemotherapy in the palliative setting * Expected survival <12 weeks * Subjects with known brain metastases * Chemotherapy or radiation therapy within 21 days prior to Visit 2 at the exception of palliative radiotherapy for bleeding or pain, which is allowed anytime, if not given on target lesions * Anti-EGFR mAbs within 14 days prior to Visit 2 * Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to Visit 2 and subjects must have recovered from effects of major surgery * Other protocol-defined exclusion criteria could apply
