NANT 2015-02: A Phase 1 Study of Lorlatinib (PF-06463922)
Lorlatinib is a novel inhibitor across ALK variants, including those resistant to crizotinib. In this first pediatric phase 1 trial of lorlatinib, the drug will be utilized as a single agent and in combination with chemotherapy in patients with relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma. The dose escalation phase of this study (Cohort A1) uses a traditional Phase I 3+3 design. Once a recommended phase 2 pediatric dose is identified, an expansion cohort of 6 patients (Cohort B1), within which ALKi naïve patients will be prioritized, will be initiated. Parallel cohorts will be initiated in adults or patients with large BSA (Cohort A2) and in combination with chemotherapy upon establishing...

Natural History of and Specimen Banking for People With Tumors of the Central Nervous System
Background: Brain and spinal cord tumors are uncommon. But they contribute substantially to cancer deaths in the U.S. in children and adults. Little progress has been made in treating brain tumors. Researchers want to learn more about these tumors by studying people who have them. Objectives: To understand brain and spinal cord tumors better and uncover areas for further research. Also, to connect people with these tumors to doctors who can help them manage their illness and give them new treatment options. Design: Participants will have an initial (baseline) visit. They will have their medical history taken and undergo physical and neurological exams. They will have...

Natural History Study of Patients With Neurofibromatosis Type I
Background: Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disorder in which patients are at increased risk of developing tumors (usually non-cancerous) of the central and peripheral nervous system. The disease affects essentially every organ system. The natural course of NFI over time is poorly understood. For most patients the only treatment option is surgery. A better understanding of NF1 may be helpful for the design of future treatment studies. Objectives: To evaluate people with NF1 over 10 years in order to better understand the natural history of the disease. To characterize the patient population and to examine how NFI affects patients quality of life and...

Navigated Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Improving Motor Rehabilitation in Participants With Brain Tumors
This trial studies how well navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation works in improving motor rehabilitation in participants with brain tumors. Navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation may help improve patients' lost motor function after surgery.

Neoadj Admin Autologous Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes & Pembrolizumab for Treatment of Adv Melanoma Patients
This phase I/II trial tests the safety and side effects of LN-144 (Lifileucel) and pembrolizumab in treating patients with stage IIIB-D or stage IV melanoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes. Biological therapies, such as LN-144 (Lifileucel), use substances made from living organisms that may attack specific tumor cells and stop them from growing or kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving lifileucel and pembrolizumab may make the tumor smaller.

Neoadjuvant/Adjuvant Trial of Darovasertib in Ocular Melanoma
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and tolerability of neo-adjuvant/adjuvant Darovasertib on uveal melanoma patients. Who is it for? Patients may be eligible to join this study with high-risk uveal melanoma and planned to undergo enucleation Study details: Eligible patients will undergo up to 4 weeks of treatment with Darovasertib (300mg, twice a day as a starting dose) and once determiend safe then up to 6 months after fulfilling inclusion/exclusion criteria and consent. Select patients will undergo adjuvant treatment for 6 months based on their initial response. It is hoped that this research will provide insight into the safety and tolerability...

Neoadjuvant Atezolizumab in Cutaneous Melanoma
The purpose of this research study is to see whether using atezolizumab before surgery is safe and does not cause side effects that delay surgery in participants with cutaneous melanoma that has not spread to other areas of the body (non-metastatic) and can be removed by surgery (resectable) but has a higher risk of coming back after surgery (high-risk).

Neoadjuvant Dabrafenib, Trametinib and/or Pembrolizumab in BRAF Mutant Resectable Stage III Melanoma
This study aims to determine which of 3 drug combinations best reduces the size of tumour prior to surgery for advanced melanoma and prevents the recurrence of melanoma after surgery.
