Phase1 expand
Phase 1/2, dose escalation and expansion study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NVL-520, determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and evaluate the antitumor activity in patients with advanced ROS1-positive (ROS1+) NSCLC and other advanced ROS1-positive solid tumors. Phase 1 will determine the RP2D and, if applicable, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of NVL-520 in patients with advanced ROS1-positive solid tumors. Phase 2 will determine the objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) of NVL-520 at the RP2D. Secondary objectives will include the duration of response (DOR), time to response (TTR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and clinical benefit rate (CBR) of NVL-520 in patients with advanced ROS1-positive NSCLC and other solid tumors.

The Georgetown University Memory Disorders Program, part of the Department of Neurology, is conducting pilot studies of the feasibility of various diagnostic tests for Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment and other neurodegenerative diseases. Further, this study is assessing longitudinal changes in biological, lifestyle, and cognitive assessment collection. The primary goal of this study is to examine the feasibility of biochemical assays, genetic testing, and cognitive and lifestyle assessments in the ante-mortem diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment and other neurodegenerative diseases. This research involves genetic and cognitive status testing but the findings will not be shared with research subjects. This will be accomplished ex vivo using blood, and/or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimens from patients with a diagnosis of probable Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment, or other neurodegenerative diseases and from normal controls.
