Using Cancer Cells in the Blood (ctDNA) to Determine the Type of Chemotherapy that will Benefit Patients who Have Had Surgery for Colon Cancer, (CIRCULATE-NORTH AMERICA)

Multiple Cancer Types

This phase II/III trial aims to determine the type of chemotherapy that will benefit patients who have had surgery for their stage II or III colon cancer based on presence or absence of circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA). In ctDNA positive patients, this trial compares the effect of usual chemotherapy versus mFOLFIRINOX. In ctDNA negative patients, this trial compares the effect of usual chemotherapy versus ctDNA testing every 3 months to determine which approach might be better to prevent colon cancer from returning. Oxaliplatin is in a class of medications called platinum-containing antineoplastic agents. It works by damaging cells DNA and may kill cancer cells. Leucovorin is in a class of medications called folic acid analogs. It works by protecting healthy cells from the effects of chemotherapy medications while allowing chemotherapy agent to enter and kill cancer cells. Fluorouracil is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. It stops cells from making DNA and may slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. Capecitabine is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. It Is taken up by cancer cells and breaks down to a substance that kills cancer cells. Irinotecan is in a class of antineoplastic medications called topoisomerase I inhibitors. It works by stopping the growth of cancer cells. This trial may help doctors determine what kind of chemotherapy to recommend to colon cancer patients based on the presence or absence of ctDNA after surgery for colon cancer.

A Study of Zilovertamab Vedotin (MK-2140) in Combination With Standard of Care in Participants With Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (rrDLBCL) (MK-2140-003)

Lymphoma

The purpose of this Phase 2/3, randomized, multisite, open-label, dose confirmation, and
expansion study is to evaluate the safety, and efficacy of zilovertamab vedotin (ZV) in
combination with standard of care options for the treatment of rrDLBCL. This study will be
divided into 2 parts: Dose Confirmation (Part 1) and Efficacy Expansion (Part 2) and will
enroll participants who are at least 18 years of age with rrDLBCL. The hypotheses are: ZV in
combination with rituximab, gemcitabine, and oxaliplatin (R-GemOx) is superior to R-GemOx
with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) per Lugano response criteria by blinded
independent review committee (BICR); and that ZV in combination with bendamustine rituximab
(BR) is superior to BR with respect to PFS per Lugano response criteria by BICR.
