A Trial of the Safety and Immunogenicity of the COVID-19 Vaccine (mRNA-1273) in Participants With Hematologic Malignancies and Various Regimens of Immunosuppression, and in Participants With Solid Tumors on PD1/PDL1 Inhibitor Therapy

Background: COVID-19 is a viral infection. It has spread rapidly across the globe. It has overwhelmed health systems. Researchers are concerned that it may undo years of progress in the reduction of cancer-specific death. They want to test a vaccine that might protect people with cancer from COVID-19. The COVID-19 Vaccine from Moderna has obtained an emergency use authorization from the FDA. The vaccine has been proven to reduce infections with the virus that causes COVID-19, and it has already been given to millions of people around the world. Objective: To test the safety and efficacy of a vaccine using mRNA-1273 that may protect people with cancer from COVID-19. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have a solid tumor or blood cancer and who may benefit from a vaccine that might prepare their immune system for fighting and preventing infection from COVID-19. Patients with solid tumors must be receiving treatment with an immunotherapy agent Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, medicine review, and physical exam. They will have blood tests. They will have a pregnancy test if needed. Participants will get 2 doses of the mRNA-1273 vaccine. It will be injected into a muscle in the arm on Days 1 and 29. Participants will have a follow-up phone call on Day 8 after the first dose. They will be followed for 12 months after the second dose. Participants will have study visits at the Clinical Center on Days 1 and 29 to get the COVID-19 vaccine from Moderna. Patients will then be asked to come back for visits about 1 week and 1 month after the second dose. Patients will need to come back for visits 6 months and 1 year after the second vaccine dose to check to see how long the vaccine offers protection. Some visits will last up to a few hours, but most will be significantly shorter. Participants will give blood and saliva samples for research. Participation will last about 13 months.

LCI-HEM-MYE-CRD-002: Carfilzomib-Revlimid-Dexamethasone-Elotuzumab in Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma

The study drug elotuzumab, has been clinically shown to be effective in treating relapsed/refractory MM in combination with either bortezomib, or lenalidomide and dexamethasone. Elotuzumab in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone is currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma. Carfilzomib is also FDA approved for treating multiple myeloma and frequently given in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone for treatment of relapsed/refractory MM. Based on these findings, this study will look at how subjects with relapsed/refractory MM respond to a combination treatment with the following drugs: elotuzumab, carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone. The combination of these four drugs is not FDA approved and is experimental.

Multiple Myeloma Trial of Orally Administered Salmonella Based Survivin Vaccine

Multiple myeloma patients will receive a cancer vaccine, called TXSVN that has been derived from the bacteria Salmonella. TXSVN is a weakened form of a live vaccine strain of the Salmonella bacteria (also known as the CVD908ssb strain) that has been genetically modified in the laboratory to produce a protein known as Survivin that stimulates an immune response in the body to the Survivin tumor antigen. CVD908ssb has been administered to over 80 healthy donors as a Salmonella vaccine in reported clinical trials. This trial intends to explore administration of this vaccine at a lower dose than what was tested in healthy individuals. Survivin belongs to the group of proteins known as tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). These are cell proteins that are specific to the cancer cell. They either are not found or are found in low levels normal cells in the human body. More than 90% of myeloma cancer cells have been shown to possess large quantities of Survivin. TXSVN may activate the immune system which is your body's ability to fight disease, and help develop a response against cancer cells that express Survivin. Survivin has been safely targeted using immune cells, drugs or direct inhibitors in over 50 patients with cancers in published reports. TXSVN, the modified strain of CVD908ssb has not been tested in humans to this date. TXSVN is an investigational product not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The purpose of this study is to find the largest safe dose of TXSVN, to learn what the sideeffects are, and to see whether this therapy might help participants with multiple myeloma.

Nelfinavir and Lenalidomide/Dexamethasone in Progressive Multiple Myeloma

There is a great need for treatment options in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) after failure of the lenalidomide/dexamethasone regimen as there is no established standard active therapy for these patients. Combining nelfinavir, a drug targeting both the proteasome and PI3K/Akt pathway, with lenalidomide, may restore lenalidomide-sensitivity to the disease as has been shown in vivo for the PI3K/Akt inhibitor perifosine and the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib. Patients expected to be included in the trial are heavily pretreated and might not be candidates for further intensive therapies. The combination of nelfinavir with lenalidomide/dexamethasone offers also to these patients an alternative. Preliminary experiences in another SAKK trial with the combination of bortezomib and nelfinavir are positive with few side effects with nelfinavir doses of up to 1875 mg twice daily (bid). For the phase I part of the trial a starting dose of 1250 mg nelfinavir bid was chosen, since the necessary plasma concentration of nelfinavir will not be reached with lower doses. In case of progression during or after the trial treatment any other lenalidomide- or bortezomib-based chemotherapy combination could be an option for the patient. However, the addition of a chemotherapeutic drug like cyclophosphamide or doxorubicin has known side effects like hematological toxicities, nausea, vomiting and hair loss. The aim of this trial is to demonstrate that the combination of nelfinavir with lenalidomide/dexamethasone is safe (phase I, dose escalation of nelfinavir) and active (phase II). Patients who do not respond to trial medication will stop trial treatment after 4 months of therapy at the latest. If the combination of nelfinavir with lenalidomide/dexamethasone should prove to be safe and efficient in treatment of lenalidomide-refractory MM, this would be the first orally available treatment for these patients and establish a new class of drugs (human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease inhibitors) as active antineoplastic agents in MM. In addition this would establish the concept of "re-sensitizing" patients to lenalidomide therapy and demonstrate the effect of nelfinavir on proteasomal degradation and Akt phosphorylation in cancer patients in vivo.

Effects of Early Palliative Care Integration on Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a common type of cancer involving the cells in the blood (commonly affecting bones, kidneys and blood). Although it remains incurable, MM has become a highly treatable form cancer thanks to new and improved treatment modalities. As patients deal with this disease, they often suffer from multiple symptoms that are caused by both the disease itself and the different drugs used to treat it. Research has shown that the most common symptoms patients suffer from include pain, constipation, tiredness, tingling in hands and feet, breathlessness, sadness and difficulty remembering things. These symptoms may negatively affect the quality of life of patients. Palliative care (PC) is a type of treatment aimed at relieving symptoms and promoting the most optimal quality of life (QOL) for patients and their caregivers. Research has shown that patients with certain types of cancers, such as colon cancer and lung cancer, do better if they are seen by a PC provider early in the course of their disease. This study seeks to determine the effects of early PC involvement on participants with newly diagnosed MM

Personalized Autologous Transplant for Multiple Myeloma

This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of mephalan in treating patients with multiple myeloma who are undergoing stem cell transplant. Chemotherapy drugs, such as mephalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This trial uses a new method of dosing that is based on analysis of each individual's blood levels of melphalan after receiving a part of the dose, termed pharmacokinetic analysis. This may help to learn more about how to dose melphalan correctly and which patients are likely to benefit from a personalized dose.
