Below are current clinical trials.

Filter this list of studies by location, status and more.

1. Testing the Addition of Duvelisib or CC-486 to the Usual Treatment for Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of duvelisib or CC-486 and usual chemotherapy consisting of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, etoposide, and prednisone in treating patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma. Duvelisib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as CC-486, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, etoposide and prednisone, 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 may help find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for treating peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

2. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole Graded Administration in Oncology, Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant, and Solid Organ Transplant Patients with a History of Sulfonamide Allergy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The aim of this study is to study the efficacy and safety of our short and long one-day protocols for TMP-SMX graded administration in hematologic malignancy, hematopoietic stem cell transplant, and solid organ transplant patients.    

3. A Study to Evaluate if New Tests (“biomarkers”) of Blood, Stool, Pancreas Cyst Fluid, or Pancreas Juice can be Used to Diagnose Malignant or Pre-malignant Changes in People with Pancreas Cysts

   Rochester, Minn.

   The goal of this protocol is to collect biospecimens in order to prospectively evaluate diagnostic and prognostic performance of MDMs for detection of advanced neoplasia in pancreatic cysts. 

4. IL-2 plus FOLFOX and Nivolumab for Treatment of Peritoneal Metastases

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reduction in the peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) after completion of the study treatment.

5. Outcomes Database to prospectivelY aSSEss the Changing TherapY Landscape in Renal Cell Carcinoma (ODYSSEY RCC)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine distinct patterns of change in the quality of life and symptom burden in mRCC patients receiving therapy.

6. A Study of Endometrial Cancer Testing With Vaginal and Endometrial Cell Samples

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to collect vaginal and endometrial cell samples to study endometrial cancer.

7. The NeoGlioma Study

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   This study aims to evaluate the safety of preoperative radiosurgery in the treatment of patients with biopsy-proven high grade glioma prior to conventional therapy. Safety is defined as any acute grade 3 (CTCAE v5.0) or greater unplanned adverse event from the time of enrollment until 4 weeks following postoperative radiotherapy.

8. A Study to Assess Dynamic Changes in Plasma Proteome to Identify Early Detection and Treatment Response Biomarkers for HGSOC

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study aims to identify candidate High Grade Serous Cancer (HGSC) early detection and chemotherapy treatment response biomarkers.  For the purpose of this study we define high grade serous cancers to include invasive cancers arising in the ovary and/or fallopian tubes (FT).  Using mass spectrometry we will deeply profile and quantitate dynamic changes in the plasma proteome and N-gylcocapture sub-proteome that occur as a consequence of surgical debulking and platinum-based chemotherapy.  

9. A Study to Evaluate Personalized Molecular Marker and Immunoprofiling to Transform Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treatment

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether profiling aggressive tumors for molecular alterations, together with drug testing in patient-derived 3D models, can provide crucial information for the identification of specific therapeutic targets. Additionally, immunoprofiling of microcancer model systems is crucially necessary data to enable prediction of immunotherapeutic efficacy. We postulate that our innovative approach will establish much needed immune microenvironment information and facilitate the identification of specific sensitivity profiles and biomarker signatures that correlate response to targeted agents (or combinations) with particular tumor profiles.

10. A Study to Evaluate Visually Inspired Patient Education Material on Willingness to Pursue Radiation Therapy

    Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

    The purpose of this study is to measure how patient anxiety changes using a validated patient reported outcome measure, to measure radiotherapy completion rates in the American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) community, and to measure patient perception of information received using a validated patient reported outcome measure.
