1. A Study to Evaluate Oncologic Outcomes and Quality of Life in Sinonasal Cancer Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a multi-site study with several other leading centers studying sinonasal cancers. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the treatment and significant morbidity associated with sinonasal cancer and identify the impact this disease has on quality of life. In addition, several additional endpoints will focus on survival and optimal treatment strategies. Additional components will also included genomic and molecular analysis of tumor tissue as we search for novel targets for therapy.

    

    

2. Comparison of Acute Toxicities Between Patients Treated With Protons or Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy After Surgery for the Treatment of Endometrial or Cervical Cancer

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

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether proton radiation therapy (proton RT) reduces acute gastrointestinal toxicities at the end of treatment compared to intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).

3. A Study to Explore Tumor Biology in Metastatic Esophageal and Gastric Cancer Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to explore various biomarkers in the post-treatment tissue of patients who have responded to cancer therapy and compare it to the biopsy performed prior to cancer treatment.

4. A Study to Assess Endometrial Cancer Recurrence in Patients After 36 Months

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the 36-month incidence of pelvic/non-vaginal recurrence among patients with surgical stage I intermediate-risk endometrial cancer.

   Eligible patients presenting with apparent uterine confined grade 1, 2, or 3 endometrioid endometrial cancer will undergo standard-of-care primary surgical treatment with a cervical injection of indocyanine green (ICG) dye for SLN mapping, a total hysterectomy, removal of the adnexae and staging with sentinel node mapping and pelvic washings. 

   The final assessment for inclusion in the follow-up part of the study will be determined from the results of the final hysterectomy and staging pathology report to ensure bilaterally negative pelvic sentinel nodes and a surgical stage I endometrioid endometrial cancer grade 1 or 2 with 50% or more uterine myoinvasion or grade 3 with less than 50% uterine myoinvasion. Women meeting this criteria will comprise the study cohort and be followed for three years.   

    

5. A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of HMPL-306 to Treat Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors with IDH Mutations

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary effectiveness of HMPL-306 in advanced or metastatic solid tumors with IDH mutation.

6. Long-Term Follow-up Protocol for Subjects Treated With Gene-Modified T Cells

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

   This is a prospective study for the long-term follow-up (LTFU) of safety and efficacy for all pediatric and adult subjects exposed to Gene-modified (GM) T cell therapy participating in a previous Celgene sponsored or Celgene alliance partner sponsored study. Subjects who received at least one GM T cell infusion, will be asked to roll-over to this LTFU protocol upon either premature discontinuation from, or completion of the prior parent treatment protocol.

7. A Pilot, Randomized, Open-label Study of Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields, 150 kHz) Concomitant With Pembrolizumab for First Line Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) by RECIST 1.1 in subjects with TPS ≥ 1 percent.

   The device is an experimental, portable, battery operated device for chronic administration of alternating electric fields (termed TTFields or TTF) to the region of the malignant tumor, by means of surface, insulated electrode arrays.

8. A Study to Evaluate Thymoma Recurrence

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate thymoma recurrence rates in patients who underwent thymectomy.

9. Effectiveness of Nurse-based Care Coordination on Readmissions among Primary Care Patients: a Stepped Wedge Cluster Randomized Trial

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate nurse-based care coordination compared to usual care on 30-day risk-adjusted readmission rates among high risk patients.

    

10. CAncer Survivor CArdiomyopathy DEtection (CASCADE) Pilot Study

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to improve the cardiovascular care of adult cancer survivors by contributing much-needed evidence regarding optimal surveillance and treatment recommendations. This application’s objective is to obtain the data necessary to plan an adequately powered randomized clinical trial (RCT) across a nation-wide network that will define prospectively the clinical and economic efficacy of a screening program that uses AI-ECG and/or NT-pro-BNP in an at-risk adult cancer survivor population.
