Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.537 studies in Oncology (Medical) (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. Futibatinib and Pembrolizumab for the Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic FGF19 Positive BCLC Stage A, B, or C Liver Cancer Rochester, Minn. This is a single-arm, two-stage, phase II trial to assess the efficacy of futibatinib plus pembrolizumab in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma for patients with FGF19 expression. Patients will receive futibatinib 20mg daily Days 1-21 and will receive pembrolizumab 200mg Day 1 of each 21 day cycle per current clinical standard of care. Patient will receive treatment until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities. Patients will undergo restaging scans every 3 cycles. Subjects will be monitored for adverse events from the beginning of the study drug to 28 days after the last dose. We will collect blood samples for determination of cell free DNA and circulating tumor cells at baseline, after 3 and 6 cycles, and at progression. We will collect tumor biopsy specimens before treatment initiation to develop patient derived tumor organoid. Neoadjuvant Combination Targeted and Immunotherapy for Patients With High-Risk Stage III Melanoma Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this early phase I pilot trial studies how well vemurafenib, cobimetinib, and atezolizumab work in treating participants with high-risk stage III melanoma. Vemurafenib and cobimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving vemurafenib, cobimetinib, and atezolizumab may work better in treating high-risk stage III melanoma. A third cohort of patients (Arm C) will receive tiragolumab and atezolizumab for neoadjuvant therapy, and atezolizumab alone for adjuvant therapy. Biorepository for Acute Leukemia Research Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this IRB protocol is to establish a specimen bank for research into acute leukemias. In particular, we plan to bank blood and bone marrow from patients with newly diagnoses or relapsed acute leukemia (AML or ALL) for future biological studies. By accruing samples both at initial diagnosis and at relapse, we will be able to investigate not only the biology of these marrow disorders, but also the changes that occur to render these disorders resistant to therapy. These activities are a first step toward identifying alternative therapies and subsequently beginning to personalize the therapy for these disorders. CD19-Directed CAR-T Cell Therapy for the Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory B Cell Malignancies Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to find out more about the side effects of the CAR-T therapy called IC19/1563 and what dose of IC19/1563 is safe for patients. The therapy, IC19/1563, uses some of the patients own immune cells, called T cells, to kill cancer. T cells fight infections and, in some cases, can also kill cancer cells. In this study, some of the patient's T cells will be removed from their blood. In the laboratory, we will put a new gene into the T cells. This gene allows the T cells to recognize and possibly treat the cancer. The new modified T cells are called the IC19/1563 treatment. The dose of IC19/1563 will depend on when the patient is enrolled on to the study. Estradiol in Treating Patients With ER Beta Positive, Triple Negative Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this trial is to determine how well estradiol works in treating patients with estrogen receptor beta (ER beta) positive, triple negative breast cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). Hormone receptors like ER beta allow the body to respond appropriately to hormones. Triple negative means that the breast cancer does not express other hormone receptors called ER alpha, progesterone, and HER2. In some people with triple negative breast cancer, ER beta is overexpressed. Tumor cells that overexpress ER beta grow slower in the laboratory and this growth is slowed in the presence of estrogen. Estradiol is a form of estrogen. This study may help doctors determine whether tumor cells that overexpress ER beta shrink in the presence of estradiol. Study of Validated Biomarkers in Urine for Patients with Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assess the accuracy of DNA marker candidates (individually and in combination) assayed from urine and prostatic fluid (collected following digital prostate massage) for detection of prostate cancer. SULF1 and SULF2 Role in Cholangiocarcinoma Rochester, Minn. Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) has key similarities with HCC, therefore, we hypothesize that Sulf1 and Sulf2 may also play roles in promotion of CCA progression. Open Nipple Sparing Mastectomy (NSM) Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this retrospective study is to evaluate the complication rate of prophylactic open NSM procedures through 42 days follow-up from retrospective chart review at the same investigators and institutions as those included under IDE Study protocol G190065/A001. Bemarituzumab plus Chemotherapy and Nivolumab Versus Chemotherapy and Nivolumab Alone Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of bemarituzumab plus mFOLFOX6 and nivolumab to treat previously-untreated advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancer. A Study to Evaluate the Use of Organoids to Advance Precision Medicine in Bladder Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to develop patient-derived organoid cultures of urothelial carcinoma from non-invasively obtained urine samples and to characterize the histological, molecular and functional features of patient-derived organoids.

The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
