Genetic Testing to Select Therapy for the Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Kidney Cancer, OPTIC RCC Study

Kidney (Renal Cell)

This phase II trial tests whether using genetic testing of tumor tissue to select the optimal treatment regimen works in treating patients with clear cell renal cell (kidney) cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced or metastatic). The current Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved regimens for advanced kidney cancer fall into two categories. One treatment combination includes two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab plus ipilimumab), which are delivered by separate intravenous infusions into a vein. The other combination is one immunotherapy drug (nivolumab infusion) plus an oral pill taken by mouth (cabozantinib). Nivolumab and ipilimumab are immunotherapies which release the brakes of the immune system, thus allowing the patient's own immune system to better kill cancer cells. Cabozantinib is a targeted therapy specifically designed to block certain biological mechanisms needed for growth of cancer cells. In kidney cancer, cabozantinib blocks a tumors blood supply. The genetic (DNA) makeup of the tumor may affect how well it responds to therapy. Testing the makeup (genes) of the tumor, may help match a treatment (from one of the above two treatment options) to the specific cancer and increase the chance that the disease will respond to treatment. The purpose of this study is to learn if genetic testing of tumor tissue may help doctors select the optimal treatment regimen to which advanced kidney cancer is more likely to respond.

INCB000928 Administered as a Monotherapy or in Combination With Ruxolitinib in Participants With Anemia Due to Myeloproliferative Disorders

Miscellaneous

This Phase 1/2, open-label, dose-finding study is intended to evaluate the safety and
tolerability, PK, PD, and efficacy of INCB000928 administered as monotherapy or in
combination with ruxolitinib in participants with MF who are transfusion-dependent or
presenting with symptomatic anemia. This study will consist of 2 parts: dose escalation and
expansion.

Study of Selinexor in Combination With Ruxolitinib in Myelofibrosis

Multiple Cancer Types

This is a global, multicenter Phase 1/3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of
selinexor plus ruxolitinib in JAK inhibitor (JAKi) treatment-nave myelofibrosis (MF)
participants. The study will be conducted in two phases: Phase 1 (open-label) and Phase 3
(double-blind). Phase 1 (enrollment completed) was an open-label evaluation of the safety and
recommended dose (RD) of selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib and included a dose
escalation using a standard 3+3 design (Phase 1a) and a dose expansion part (Phase 1b). In
Phase 3, JAKi treatment-nave MF participants are enrolled in 2:1 ratio to receive the
combination therapy of selinexor + ruxolitinib or the combination of placebo + ruxolitinib.

Nivolumab and Ipilimumab for the Treatment of Patients with Locally Advanced, Metastatic, or Unresectable Liver Cancer

Liver

This phase II trial tests whether nivolumab and ipilimumab works to shrink tumors in patients with liver cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Nivolumab and ipilimumab may be effective in killing tumor cells in patients with liver cancer.
