We are doing this study to find out if an experimental drug called LY4337713 (the study drug) is a safe and effective option for people who have FAP-positive solid tumors. The study drug is a type of radiotherapy that is intended to target and attach only to FAP. The goal of targeted radiotherapy is to provide selective delivery of radiation doses that can destroy tumor cells.

This study is for people with a kind of brain cancer called GBM. They will be placed into one of two treatment groups—either a regular treatment or a new one being tested. The study has two parts. In the first part, doctors choose treatments based on how well they are working for others with similar cancer. In the second part, treatments that look helpful are tested more closely. People in the study will have brain scans every 6 to 8 weeks to check the size of the tumor. They will also have blood tests, physical check-ups, and answer questions about how they feel. Some people may take tests to check their thinking and memory. Treatment will continue until the cancer gets worse or the side effects become too strong. Regular treatments include radiation and a medicine called temozolomide for people who are newly diagnosed. For people whose cancer has come back, the treatment is a chemotherapy medicine called lomustine.

We are doing this study to understand more about biomarkers (a part of your body) and how they can be used to better diagnose infection. To learn more, please contact us at DukeMESSIStudy@Duke.edu or at 919-452-1605. Estamos haciendo este estudio para entender más sobre biomarcadores (que son parte de su cuerpo) y cómo pueden ser usados estos para diagnosticar infecciones de una mejor manera.

We are doing this study to learn more about the cause of cardiac (heart) disease or sudden unexplained death, which is something that can run in families. Some conditions that we are looking at are:

• Cardiomyopathies (a disease of the heart muscle that makes it harder for your heart to pump blood to the rest of your body) like hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, or arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (also called right ventricular cardiomyopathy)
• Arrhythmia syndromes (a problem with the rate or rhythm of the heartbeat, either too slow or too fast) like long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, or short QT syndrome
• Sudden cardiac arrest or unexplained sudden death (heart stops suddenly) in someone less than 50 years of age, including sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS)
• Individuals with genetic mutations (variants) in genes that can lead to cardiac disease which include (LMNA, ATP1A3, and TAX1BP3)

We are doing this study to learn more about how genetic variations in people can impact how well different antibody-based drugs work for people who get organ transplants.

We are doing this study to find out if an experimental drug called acasunlimab (the study drug) is a safe and effective option for adults with relapsed/refractory, unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic cutaneous melanoma that has progressed despite treatment with a checkpoint inhibitor. We want to know how well the study drug works on its own and in combination with pembrolizimab.

In this study, people will answer questions and do simple physical tests three times over six months. They will be randomly placed into one of two groups: one gets coping skills training with a nurse by phone, and the other gets regular care. Everyone will also get a short health check during cancer visits to look for problems like memory loss or falling.
