Ipatasertib + Immunotherapy

for Head and Neck Cancer

This trial is testing whether adding a new drug, ipatasertib, to an existing treatment, pembrolizumab, can better treat head and neck cancer that has returned or spread. Ipatasertib may help stop cancer growth, and pembrolizumab helps the immune system attack the cancer. The goal is to see if this combination works better than using pembrolizumab alone. Pembrolizumab has been used in combination with chemotherapy for various cancers, including head and neck cancer, and has shown improved overall survival and response rates.

Disitamab Vedotin + Tucatinib

for Breast Cancer

This clinical trial is studying solid tumor cancers. A solid tumor is one that starts in part of your body like your lungs or liver instead of your blood. Once they've grown bigger in one spot or spread to other parts of the body, they're harder to treat. This is called advanced or metastatic cancer. Participants in this study must have breast cancer or gastric cancer. Participants must have tumors that have HER2 on them. This allows the cancer to grow more quickly or spread faster. There are few treatment options for patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that express HER2. This clinical trial uses an experimental drug called disitamab vedotin (DV). Disitamab vedotin is a type of antibody drug conjugate or ADC. ADCs are designed to stick to cancer cells and kill them. This clinical trial uses a drug called tucatinib, which has been approved to treat cancer in the United States and some other countries. This drug is sold under the brand name TUKYSA®. This study will test how safe and how well DV, with or without tucatinib, is for participants with solid tumors. This study will also test what side effects happen when participants take these drugs. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease.
