Intraoperative Rapid Diagnosis of Glioma Based on Fusion of Magnetic Resonance and Ultrasound Imaging
The aim of this observational study is to enable rapid diagnosis of molecular biomarkers in patients during surgery by medical imaging and artificial intelligence models, to help clinicians with strategies to maximize safe resection of gliomas. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To solve the current clinical shortcomings of intraoperative molecular diagnosis, which is time-consuming and complex, and enables rapid and automated molecular diagnosis of glioma, thus providing the possibility of personalized tumor resection plans. 2. To implement a neuro-navigation platform that combines preoperative magnetic resonance images, intraoperative...

Investigation of a Transcatheter Tricuspid Valved Stent Graft in Patients With Carcinoid Heart Disease
The purpose of this investigation is to see if the TRICENTO Valved Stent Graft implant reduces tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and improves the symptoms and quality of life in 15 participants with carcinoid heart disease, and who are not able to have a new valve via a surgical procedure.

In Vivo Real-time Detection of Circulating Melanoma Cells
The objective of this clinical trial is to determine whether a Photoacoustic flow cytometry (PAFC)-based prototype device can detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the blood of melanoma patients in vivo, in real time, and do so at detection limits at least one order of magnitude below the detection limits of currently existing ex vivo methods.

IO102-IO103 in Combination With Pembrolizumab Versus Pembrolizumab Alone in Advanced Melanoma (IOB-013 / KN-D18)
Phase 3, multicenter, international, open-label, randomized, 2-arm trial investigating the safety and efficacy of IO102-IO103 in combination with pembrolizumab as first-line treatment for patients with previously untreated unresectable or metastatic (advanced) melanoma. Patients will be stratified on the basis of the following factors; Disease stage: Stage III (unresectable) and IV M1a-b versus stage IV M1c-d and BRAFV600 mutation status: mutated vs wild type. All patients will receive pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks for a maximum of 35 cycles (up to 2 years treatment). Patients randomized to IO102-IO103 dual-antigen, immunotherapeutic arm will also be given...

Ipilimumab and Nivolumab Followed by Adjuvant Nivolumab in Locally Advanced or Limited Metastatic Melanoma
This is open label, single arm study for pts with stage IIIB-IV melanoma, accordingly with AJCC staging criteria (8th ed.), with potentially resectable disease. Patients will receive every three weeks, four cycles of Nivolumab 3 mg/kg (over one 30 minutes infusion) and Ipilimumab 1 mg/kg (over 30 minutes infusion) with a 30 minute break between each infusion. Surgery will be performed after 4-6 weeks from the last dose. After 4-6 weeks from surgery, patients will receive Nivolumab 480 mg (over one 60 minutes infusion), every four weeks for six cycles. The duration of the trial is expected to be 12 months of accrual and approximately 24 months of follow-up after the end of...

Ipilimumab (Immunotherapy) and MGN1703 (TLR Agonist) in Patients With Advanced Solid Malignancies
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of MGN1703 that can be given in combination with ipilimumab to patients with advanced tumors. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. This is an investigational study. MGN1703 is not FDA approved or commercially available. It is currently being used for research purposes only. Ipilimumab is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of unresectable (cannot be removed with surgery) or metastatic (has spread) melanoma. Up to 60 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.

Ipilimumab or High-Dose Interferon Alfa-2b in Treating Patients With High-Risk Stage III-IV Melanoma That Has Been Removed by Surgery
This randomized phase III trial studies ipilimumab to see how well it works compared to high-dose interferon alfa-2b in treating patients with high-risk stage III-IV melanoma that has been removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Interferon alfa-2b may interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow the growth of melanoma and other cancers. It is not yet known whether ipilimumab is more effective than interferon alfa-2b in treating patients with melanoma.

Ipilimumab With Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in Patients With Unresectable Stage III and Stage IV Melanoma
The safety of the combination of ipilimumab with carboplatin/paclitaxel treatment with two different dosing schedules will be investigated in patients with metastatic melanoma. This protocol will also investigate both the clinical benefit of this combination and the features of the host immune system that may predict response to ipilimumab with chemotherapy in patients with unresectable Stage III and Stage IV melanoma.

Ipilimumab With Lymphodepletion Plus Adoptive Cell Transfer and High Dose IL-2 in Melanoma Mets Pts
Purpose of this Pilot Study: The investigators want to study the safety, side effects, and benefits of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), when they are given with the drug ipilimumab. Ipilimumab is a type of immunotherapy - a drug that is used to boost the ability of the immune system to fight cancer, infection, and other diseases.
