Consuelo Wilkins, MD, MSCI, Senior Vice President for Health Equity and Inclusive Excellence for Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) and Senior Associate Dean for Health Equity and Inclusive Excellence for Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, always knew she wanted to be a physician. "Health equity was built into everything I did, even if I didn’t know it or recognize it at the time," Wilkins said. "I have always learned and believed that people are the same — everyone deserves to be healthy, and everyone should have the best opportunities to take care of themselves and their families."

Vanderbilt was the lead site for an NIH-funded, phase 2, multicenter influenza vaccine study in pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) recipients that may lead to a change in the current flu vaccine recommendations in this vulnerable population. Natasha Halasa, MD, MPH and colleagues recently published in the New England Journal of Medicine, that two doses of high-dose trivalent flu vaccine resulted in higher amounts of influenza-specific antibodies than two doses of standard dose quadrivalent vaccine.

Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Efficacy of ASTX727 in Combination With Venetoclax in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

Multiple Cancer Types

The Phase 1 portion of this study is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, non-randomized
interventional study to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) interaction, safety, and efficacy
of ASTX727 when given in combination with venetoclax for the treatment of newly diagnosed
acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in adults who are age 75 years or older, or who have
comorbidities that preclude use of intensive induction chemotherapy. The primary purpose of
the study is to rule out drug-drug interactions between ASTX727 and venetoclax combination
therapy by evaluating area under the curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)
exposure. The Phase 2 portion of the study is to assess the efficacy of ASTX727 and
venetoclax when given in combination and to evaluate potential PK interactions. Phase 2 will
follow the same overall study design as Phase 1 and has two parts, Part A and Part B.

A Study of ELI-002 7P in Subjects With KRAS/NRAS Mutated Solid Tumors

Multiple Cancer Types

This is a Phase 1/2 study to assess the safety and efficacy of ELI-002 7P immunotherapy (a
lipid-conjugated immune-stimulatory oligonucleotide [Amph-CpG-7909] plus a mixture of
lipid-conjugated peptide-based antigens [Amph-Peptides 7P]) as adjuvant treatment in subjects
with solid tumors with mutated KRAS/NRAS. This study builds on the experience obtained with
related product ELI-002 2P, which was studied in protocol ELI-002-001 under IND 26909.

Nilotinib, Trametinib, and Dabrafenib for the Treatment of BRAF V600 Mutant Metastatic or Unresectable Melanoma

Multiple Cancer Types

This phase I trial is to find out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of nilotinib given together with trametinib and dabrafenib in treating patients with BRAF V600 mutant melanoma that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Nilotinib, trametinib, and dabrafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving nilotinib together with trametinib and dabrafenib may lower the chance of cancer growing or spreading.

A Study to Evaluate MEDI5752 and Axitinib in Subjects With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma

Multiple Cancer Types

The purpose of this study is to evaluate MEDI5752 in combination with Lenvatinib (or
Axitinib), in subjects with advanced renal cell carcinoma.

A Study of DS-6000a in Subjects With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma and Ovarian Tumors

Multiple Cancer Types

This clinical trial will evaluate raludotatug deruxtecan (R-DXd; DS-6000a) in participants
with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and ovarian cancer (OVC). The main goals of this
study will be to investigate the recommended dose of R-DXd that can be given safely to
participants, assess the side effects of R-DXd, and evaluate the effectiveness of R-DXd.

Evaluation of SNDX-5613 in Participants With Colorectal Cancer and Other Solid Tumors

Phase I

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-tumor
activity of SNDX-5613 in participants with colorectal cancer (CRC) or other solid tumors who
have failed at least 1 prior line of therapy.

Selinexor and Venetoclax in Combination with Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Acute Leukemia of Ambiguous Lineage

Multiple Cancer Types

This phase I trial evaluates the side effects and best dose of selinexor and venetoclax in combination with chemotherapy in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or acute leukemia of ambiguous linage that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Selinexor may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking CRM1, which help the body's immune system to find and kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Colony-stimulating factors, such as granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, may increase the production of blood cells and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Giving venetoclax and selinexor with chemotherapy may help control the disease in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage.

A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of TOS-358 in Adults With Select Solid Tumors

Multiple Cancer Types

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of TOS-358 in adults with select
solid tumors who meet study enrollment criteria. The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. what is the maximum tolerated dose and recommended dose for phase 2?

2. how safe and tolerable is TOS-358 at different dose levels when taken orally once or
twice per day?

A Study of ASTX030 (Cedazuridine in Combination With Azacitidine) in MDS, CMML, or AML

Multiple Cancer Types

Study ASTX030-01 is designed to move efficiently from Phase 1 to Phase 3. Phase 1 consists of
an open-label Dose Escalation Stage (Stage A) using multiple cohorts at escalating dose
levels of oral cedazuridine and azacitidine (only one study drug will be escalated at a time)
followed by a Dose Expansion Stage (Stage B) of ASTX030. Phase 2 is a randomized open-label
crossover study to compare oral ASTX030 to subcutaneous (SC) azacitidine. Phase 3 is a
randomized open-label crossover study comparing the final oral ASTX030 dose to SC
azacitidine. The duration of the study is expected to be approximately 48 months.
