Testing GSK2636771 as a Potential Targeted Treatment in Cancers With PTEN Loss of Expression (MATCH-Subprotocol P)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of GSK2636771 in patients whose cancer has a complete loss of PTEN expression. GSK2636771 may block a protein called PI3K-beta, which may be needed for growth of cancer cells with complete loss of PTEN expression. Researchers hope to learn if GSK2636771 will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

Testing Ipatasertib as Potentially Targeted Treatment in Cancers With AKT Genetic Changes (MATCH - Subprotocol Z1K)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well ipatasertib works in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes called AKT mutations. Ipatasertib is in a class of medications called protein kinase B (AKT) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells and may kill them.

Testing JNJ-42756493 (Erdafitinib) as Potentially Targeting Treatment in Cancers With FGFR Amplifications (MATCH-Subprotocol K1)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well JNJ-42756493 (erdafitinib) works in treating patients with tumors that have more copies of the FGFR gene than is normal (amplification). Erdafitinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal FGFR protein that signals cancer cells to multiply.

Testing JNJ-42756493 (Erdafitinib) as Potentially Targeting Treatment in Cancers With FGFR Mutations or Fusions (MATCH - Subprotocol K2)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well erdafitinib (JNJ-42756493) works in treating patients with tumors that have FGFR mutations or fusions. Erdafitinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal FGFR protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This may help keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them.

Testing LOXO-101 as Potentially Targeted Treatment in Cancers With NTRK Genetic Changes (MATCH - Subprotocol Z1E)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well larotrectinib (LOXO-101) works in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes. Larotrectinib (LOXO-101) is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called NTRK. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells.

Testing MLN0128 (TAK-228) as Potentially Targeted Treatment in Cancers With mTOR Genetic Changes (MATCH - Subprotocol L)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well MLN0128 (TAK-228) works in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes called mTOR mutations. MLN0128 (TAK-228) may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
-
Testing MLN0128 (TAK-228) as Potentially Targeted Treatment in Cancers With TSC1 or TSC2 Genetic Changes (MATCH - Subprotocol M)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well MLN0128 (TAK-228) works in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes called TSC1 or TSC2 mutations. MLN0128 (TAK-228) may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Testing Palbociclib (PD-0332991) as a Potential Targeted Treatment in Cancers With CCND1, 2, 3 Amplification (MATCH-Subprotocol Z1B)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of palbociclib in patients whose cancer has genetic changes called CCND1, 2, or 3 amplification. Palbociclib blocks proteins called CDK4 and CDK6, which may stop cancer cell growth when CCND1, 2, or 3 amplifications are present. Researchers hope to learn if palbociclib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

Testing Palbociclib (PD-0332991) as Potentially Targeting Treatment in Cancers With CDK4 or CDK6 Amplification (MATCH - Subprotocol Z1C)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well palbociclib (PD-0332991) works in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes. Palbociclib (PD-0332991) is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It is used in patients whose cancer has a certain mutation (change) in the CDK4 or CDK6 gene. It works by blocking the action of mutated CDK4 or CDK6 that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps to stop or slow the spread of cancer cells.

Testing Ramipril to Prevent Memory Loss in People With Glioblastoma
This study is to determine if an oral drug called Ramipril can lower the chance of memory loss in patients with glioblastoma getting chemoradiation. Patients will take Ramipril during chemoradiation and continue until 4 months post-treatment. Memory loss will be assessed using several neurocognitive tests throughout the duration of the study.
