The goal of this research study is to look at how live, online group exercise compares to recorded videos for helping increase physical activity levels, improve physical fitness and quality of life, and reduce loneliness among those living with and beyond cancer. The following aims have been established for this study: * Aim 1: Examine the effect of a group-based videoconference physical activity (PA) intervention on moderate to vigorous physical activity \[MVPA\] (i.e., aerobic and resistance exercise). * Aim 2: Examine the effect of the intervention on additional health-related outcomes including physical fitness (i.e., aerobic endurance, muscular strength), and quality of life at both timepoints. * Aim 3: Explore potential mediators and moderators of intervention effects. We will examine mediators (e.g., self-efficacy, outcome expectations, group cohesion) and moderators (e.g., age, cancer stage, neighborhood walkability) of the intervention on MVPA. * Exploratory Aim: Determine whether a group-based videoconference PA intervention reduces loneliness among cancer survivors. Researchers will randomize participants into one of two guided exercise groups that are 12-weeks long in duration. Participants will be asked to complete online fitness assessments and surveys as well as wear a physical activity monitor device and watch a few times throughout the study. The whole study is 9-months long in duration with a 6-month free-living period where no study activities will take place.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate if CALM-TF (Trauma-Focused Managing Cancer and Living Meaningfully) is effective in treating traumatic stress symptoms in women with advanced ovarian cancer. It will also learn whether the efficacy differs at new diagnosis versus at recurrence. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the effectiveness of CALM-TF in reducing traumatic stress symptoms in patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent advanced ovarian cancer, as measured at 3 and 6 months? 2. What are the effects of CALM-TF on depression, quality of life, and patient-perceived benefit of the intervention compared to usual care alone? 3. What are patient perceptions of their care experiences as explored through qualitative interviews? Researchers will compare CALM-TF to usual standard of care (which includes regular conversations with medical teams and meetings with social workers) to see if CALM-TF works to treat traumatic stress. Participants will: * Receive 3-6 sessions of CALM-TF over 3-6 months (45-60 minutes each) via video call, telephone, or in-person based on preference, OR receive usual care only * Complete questionnaires at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months * Continue to receive their standard cancer care throughout the study * Some participants may be invited to participate in qualitative interviews at 6 months

This is a multicenter clinical study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics (PK) of IDE892 as monotherapy and in combination with other agents including IDE397 in participants with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP)-deleted advanced solid tumors within indications of interest.

This is an exploratory, signal-finding, randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded, multi-center phase 2b trial of the anti-GDF-15 antibody Visugromab (CTL-002) at two different dose levels plus Nivolumab with Docetaxel versus Visugromab at the higher dose plus Nivolumab with placebo versus double-placebo with Docetaxel, in participants that receive second-line treatment for non-squamous NSCLC after failure of prior first-line treatment including a CPI (checkpoint inhibitor). The trial consists of 3 Parts: an open-label Safety Run-in part (Part A) followed by a subsequent randomized phase 2b part with 4 treatment arms. After the treatment of 15 participants with visugromab at the expansion dose, an interim safety and preliminary efficacy analysis will be conducted (Part B), followed by the treatment of the remaining participants (Part C).

This study is a Phase 2/3, prospective, multicenter, open-label, non-randomized clinical trial, in which GEH300079 (68Ga) PET/CT images will be acquired in patients with primary colorectal, gastric, ovarian, or Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cancers and known or suspected Peritoneal Carcinomatosis (PC) before or after institutional Standard of Care (SoC) imaging. The primary objective is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of GEH300079 (68Ga) PET/CT for the detection of PC in patients with colorectal, gastric, or ovarian primary cancers, using a composite standard of truth (SoT), in a region-based analysis. The detection of PC in patients with primary PDAC will be explored in the Phase 2 part of the study. The study is comprised of 2 distinct parts: Phase 2 aims to confirm the statistical and scientific assumptions for the Phase 3 part, and to confirm the optimal dose and timing of acquisition of GEH300079 (68Ga) PET/CT in the PC indication. Phase 2 includes 2 cohorts: Cohort A (participants with colorectal, ovarian and gastric primary cancer), and Cohort B (participants with primary PDAC), where analysis of Cohort B is descriptive only. Phase 3 aims to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of GEH300079 (68Ga) PET/CT for the detection of PC in patients with confirmed colorectal, gastric or ovarian primary cancers.

This phase Ib trial will investigate the effect of N-803 in combination with pembrolizumab and enfortumab vedotin in treating participants with urothelial cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic).

This research study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel immunotherapy, Fast TIL, an Adoptive Cellular Therapeutic (ACT), to fight cancer that has spread to the pleura or pleural mesothelioma. The ACT product is created at AHN West Penn using the participant's pleural infiltrating T-cells (PIT). It is administered through a pleural catheter along with the drug Interleukin-2 (IL-2). Based on previous research it is believed that it may help fight the tumor and relieve symptoms. As a participant, their pleural fluid will be collected and the PIT cells will be isolated and expanded in the lab to create the ACT product. Before receiving the ACT product through their pleural catheter, they will undergo outpatient lymphodepleting chemotherapy. LDC is a standard procedure for many approved immunotherapy treatments Following the infusion, they'll receive IL-2 through the catheter for two days to stimulate the expanded PIT cells. The active treatment phase lasts about three weeks, with follow-up visits over five years at AHN West Penn Hospital, potentially requiring a hospital stay of up to six days. Blood samples will be taken to monitor their response. As this is a first-in-human study, treatment carries an unknown risk up to and including death from toxicity. However, the risks of similar immunotherapy treatments are well documented.

This is an exploratory, signal finding, randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded, multi-center Phase 2b trial of the anti GDF-15 antibody Visugromab (CTL-002) versus Placebo, combined with Immunochemotherapy (ICT: Pembrolizumab, Pemetrexed, Carboplatin) in the first-line treatment of participants with newly diagnosed metastatic non-squamous NSCLC. The trial consists of 3 Parts, a non-randomized Safety-run-in part (Part A) and the subsequent randomized Ph2b trial with 2 treatment arms. After the treatment of 15 participants with visugromab at the expansion dose, an interim safety and preliminary efficacy analysis will be conducted (Part B), followed by the treatment of the remaining participants (Part C).

The goal of this study is to test a home-based and patient-tailored cognitive training intervention among gynecologic cancer patients who have completed chemotherapy and who have experienced cancer-related cognitive impairment.

This is a phase 2 study to test the effectiveness (anti-tumor activity) of the combination of the study drugs, Senaparib and Temozolomide, in patients with clear cell or endometrioid ovarian cancers that have ARID1A pathologic variants.

This is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, FIH study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), PK/PD, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of ISM6331 in participants with advanced or metastatic malignant mesothelioma or other solid tumors. The study consists of two parts, a dose escalation part (Part 1) and a dose selection optimization part (Part 2).

This phase III trial compares the effectiveness of pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan to standard of care in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). 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. Sacituzumab govitecan is a monoclonal antibody, called sacituzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug called govitecan. Sacituzumab attaches to TROP2 positive tumor cells in a targeted way and delivers govitecan to kill them. The usual treatment approach is treatment with chemotherapy such as cisplatin, carboplatin, gemcitabine, docetaxel or paclitaxel. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill tumor cells. Docetaxel is in a class of medications called taxanes. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Giving pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan may be more effective than usual care of carboplatin or cisplatin with gemcitabine, docetaxel or paclitaxel in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer.
