Clinical Trials Fiyinfolu Balogun is currently running
Tislelizumab
for Colorectal Cancer
The researchers are doing this study to find out whether tislelizumab is an effective treatment for people with colorectal cancer who are living in Nigeria. The researchers will also look at the safety of the study drug. All participants in this study will be treatment naïve (they have not yet received treatment for their cancer), and their cancer will be mismatch repair deficient (dMMR). dMMR cancer can happen when your cells are unable to repair mistakes made during the cell division process.

Olaparib
for Pancreatic Cancer
This phase II trial investigates how well the addition of olaparib following completion of surgery and chemotherapy works in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that has been surgically removed (resected) and has a pathogenic mutation in BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2. Olaparib is an inhibitor of PARP, an enzyme that helps repair deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) when it becomes damaged. Blocking PARP may help keep tumor cells from repairing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. PARP inhibitors are a type of targeted therapy.
