If you recently finished treatment for — or you will soon — you may be able to join S2417CD.
The trial doesn’t involve any medical treatment. Instead, it’s studying an educational website that was designed for colorectal cancer survivors and their family members or other support people. The site provides information about follow-up care and guidance for talking with a support person about care preferences. Researchers hope to learn if people are more likely to get recommended follow-up care if they’ve used the website.

Immunotherapy drugs may help a person’s immune system fight cancer. But people can have side effects from them. S2013 is a research study that aims to better predict who is likely to have serious side effects from immunotherapy drugs called immune checkpoint inhibitors.
The study follows patients who are getting treatment that combines these drugs with chemotherapy. People receiving this treatment combination for breast cancer, lung cancer, or gastro-esophageal cancer may be able to join the study.
To learn more, call 1-800-4-CANCER and ask about S2013. Or visit swog.org/S2013.

The S2408 study is for people planning to have a type of surgery called distal pancreatectomy to treat or a growth on the pancreas. Researchers are aiming to find out if the medicine lanreotide can help prevent pancreatic fistula, a serious surgery complication.
Pancreatic fistula happens when the pancreas has a small leak, and it can cause serious problems — like an infection or uncontrolled bleeding. During the study, researchers will compare lanreotide to a placebo, which contains no medicine.

Did you finish treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer? If you have no signs of cancer after surgery, you may be able to join S2414.
Right now, doctors don’t know whether people who have no signs of cancer after surgery will benefit from more treatment. But the S2414 study aims to find out if further treatment with an immunotherapy drug called can help keep the cancer from coming back. The study compares treatment with durvalumab to the usual approach — which is when a doctor closely monitors a patient’s health without further treatment.

Testing for certain features in cancer (called biomarkers) can tell doctors about what’s causing the cancer to grow. The study is for adults just diagnosed with acute ( ) or syndrome ( ). It uses advanced biomarker testing to try to match patients with a myeloMATCH clinical trial for cancer treatment. Ask your doctor to learn more. You can also call 1-800-4-CANCER or visit swog.org/myeloMATCH.

is a large National Cancer Institute (NCI) research study testing treatments for adults with acute myeloid (AML) or syndrome (MDS).
Patients join before starting treatment and may have clinical trial options at all stages of treatment. myeloMATCH uses advanced testing to look for cancer biomarkers that can be targeted by new treatments.
To learn more, visit swog.org/myeloMATCH or call the NCI’s Cancer Information Service at 1-800-4-CANCER.
