PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine whether binary changes (increase versus [vs.] decrease) in rCBV within enhancing tumor from baseline to 2 weeks after initiation of anti-angiogenic therapy is associated with overall survival (OS). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine whether the baseline pre-treatment rCBV measure alone is associated with OS. II....
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To compare event-free survival (EFS) in patients with high-risk resectable melanoma randomized to neoadjuvant MK-3475 (pembrolizumab) with patients randomized to adjuvant MK-3475 (pembrolizumab). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To assess the frequency and severity of toxicities on each of the arms. II. To compare between arms overall survival (OS),...
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare overall survival in metastatic prostate cancer patients who are randomized to standard systemic therapy (SST) plus definitive treatment of the primary tumor versus standard systemic therapy alone. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare overall survival in metastatic prostate cancer patients who received SST plus surgical excision...
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To compare the invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) of patients with inflammatory breast cancer receiving concurrent administration of olaparib with standard doses of radiotherapy to the chest wall and regional lymph nodes compared to standard doses of radiotherapy alone to the chest wall and regional lymph nodes. SECONDARY...
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To develop a baseline and serial breast cancer core biopsy repository within the University of Southern California (USC)/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center Women's Cancer Program. II. To develop and maintain a secure clinical database of relevant demographic, clinical, pathologic and longitudinal outcome characteristics of the samples to be...
