Learning More About a New Approach to Treating Ductal Carcinoma In Situ
Some ductal carcinoma in situ (breast cancer) is lower risk than others for turning into invasive cancer. The purpose of this study is to try and figure out which ductal carcinoma in situ is low risk. It's possible low-risk breast cancer can be treated with only hormone therapy pills and avoid surgery.

A Study of Methotrexate in People with Breast, Brain, or Spinal Cord Cancer
Methotrexate is a type of chemotherapy drug. The purpose of this study is to find out how well high-dose Methotrexate works for treating breast cancer that has spread to the membrane that cover the brain and spinal cord. We also want to find out what the side effects of this treatment may be. Methotrexate will be given to study volunteers in the hospital every 2 weeks until there is evidence that the cancer is growing.

Understanding How Chemotherapy Treatment Before Surgery Impacts Recovery
The purpose of this study is to learn how chemotherapy treatment before surgery affects your body and brain. Some people get chemotherapy before surgery, and some get it after. By looking at changes in health, doctors hope to understand how chemotherapy before surgery helps people feel better and recover faster. We are looking for volunteers who have recently been diagnosed with a gynecological cancer (ovarian, peritoneal, fallopian tube, or endometrial) and are planning to receive chemotherapy treatment followed by surgery afterwards.

Testing New Treatments for Large B-Cell Lymphoma
The purpose of this study is to test a new mix of three drugs called lenalidomide, mosunetuzumab, and polatuzumab vedotin. We want to see if these drugs are safe and helpful for people with a type of blood cancer called diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. This study is for patients whose cancer has come back or did not get better with other treatments. We also want to find the highest dose that is still safe for patients.

Using Brain Scans to Track Brain Tumor Changes
The purpose of this study is to learn if special brain scans can give doctors better information about how brain tumors change over time. We will compare regular MRI scans with special MRI scans and, for some people, a PET scan. What we learn may help doctors care for future patients with brain cancer. This study is for volunteers diagnosed with glioblastoma.

Comparing Two Treatments for Breast Cancer after Surgery
The goal of this study is to test a new treatment for a type of breast cancer called high-risk early triple-negative breast cancer. We want to see if using the drugs sacituzumab govitecan and pembrolizumab together can treat cancer that is still there after surgery and keep it from coming back. The researchers will compare this to using pembrolizumab alone or with another drug called capecitabine.
