AGCT1531
This phase III trial studies how well active surveillance, bleomycin, etoposide, carboplatin or cisplatin work in treating pediatric and adult patients with germ cell tumors. Active surveillance may help doctors to monitor subjects with low risk germ cell tumors after their tumor is removed. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. The trial studies whether carboplatin or cisplatin is the preferred chemotherapy to use in treating germ cell tumors.

Bleomycin, Etoposide, Cisplatin (BEP) administered 3-weekly x 4 remains standard 1st line chemotherapy for intermediate- and poor-risk metastatic germ cell tumours (GCTs). Cure rates are over 90% for good-risk disease, 85% with intermediate-risk, and about 70% for poor-risk disease. Previous strategies to improve first-line chemotherapy have failed to improve cure rates and were more toxic than BEP. New strategies are needed for patients with intermediate and poor-risk disease. BEP is accelerated by cycling Cisplatin and etoposide 2-weekly instead of 3-weekly. The Australian and New Zealand Urogenital and Prostate Cancer Trials Group (ANZUP) is conducting a trial comparing accelerated BEP with standard BEP. The aim of this study is to determine if accelerated BEP is superior to standard BEP as first-line chemotherapy for intermediate and poor risk metastatic GCTs.

NRG-CC008
This trial studies how well two surgical procedures (bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy) work in reducing the risk of ovarian cancer for women with BRCA1 mutations. Bilateral salpingectomy involves the surgical removal of fallopian tubes, and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy involves the surgical removal of both the fallopian tubes and ovaries. This study may help doctors determine if the two surgical procedures are nearly the same for ovarian cancer risk reduction for women with BRCA1 mutations.

This phase III trial compares the effect of sentinel lymph node mapping to standard lymph node dissection in reducing the risk of swelling in the legs (lymphedema) in patients undergoing a hysterectomy for stage I endometrial cancer. Standard lymph node dissection removes lymph nodes around the uterus during a hysterectomy to look for spread of cancer from the uterus to nearby lymph nodes. Sentinel lymph node mapping uses a special dye and camera to look for cancer that may have spread to nearby lymph nodes. Comparing the results of the procedures may help doctors predict the risk of long-term swelling in the legs.
NRG-GY024
Patient Population: Early stage vulvar cancer with macrometastasis and/or extracapsular extension in the SLN. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the safety of replacing inguinofemoral lymphadenectomy by chemoradiation in early-stage vulvar cancer patients with a macrometastasis (>2mm) and/or extracapsular extension in the Sentinel Lymph Node (SLN). The secondary objective is to evaluate the short and long-term morbidity associated with the SLN procedure and chemoradiation.
NRG-GY032
This study is being done in order to find out if this new approach is better or worse than the usual approach for early-stage endometrial cancer. The usual approach for patients who are not in a study is treatment with surgery. Tissue that is removed as part of this procedure is analyzed in the pathology laboratory to guide the doctor to decide whether or not additional treatment such as radiation and or chemotherapy should be recommended. This protocol tests de-escalated adjuvant treatment in patients with POLE-mutated or p53wt/NSMP (p53 wildtype/no specific molecular profile) early-stage endometrial cancer (EC). Patients may be enrolled in one of two sub-studies (1) EN10.A/RAINBO BLUE: POLE-mutated EC or (2) EN10.B/TAPER: p53 wildtype / NSMP EC
NRG-GY035
This phase III trial compares the effect of bevacizumab in combination with carboplatin, paclitaxel and pembrolizumab to the usual treatments of carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without pembrolizumab in treating patients with stage III, IVA or IVB mismatch repair protein proficient (pMMR) and TP53 mutated endometrial cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent).
NRG-GY036
This phase III trial compares the effect of olaparib for one year versus two years, with or without bevacizumab, for the treatment of BRCA 1/2 mutated or homologous recombination deficient stage III or IV ovarian cancer. Olaparib is a PARP inhibitor and may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Giving olaparib for one year with or without bevacizumab may be effective in treating patients with BRCA 1/2 mutated or homologous recombination deficient stage III or IV ovarian cancer, when compared to two years of olaparib.
NRG-GY037
This phase III trial compares the addition of induction chemotherapy, with carboplatin, paclitaxel and pembrolizumab, to chemotherapy and radiation, with cisplatin and pembrolizumab followed by pembrolizumab maintenance for the treatment of patients with cervical cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Adding induction chemotherapy to the usual treatment of chemotherapy and radiation followed by maintenance may be more effective in treating patients with high risk, locally advanced cervical cancer.
NRG-GY038
This phase II trial compares the effect of sacituzumab govitecan and bevacizumab to standard care (carboplatin, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, and bevacizumab) in patients with ovarian cancer that has come back after an initial response to platinum therapy (platinum-sensitive), that has progressed after poly (adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor maintenance therapy (recurrent), and that has a mutation in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes or is homologous recombination deficient. Giving sacituzumab govitecan and bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells than standard care (carboplatin, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, and bevacizumab) in patients with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancers that have BRCA1/2 mutations or homologous recombination deficiency.
