Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.540 studies in Oncology (Medical) (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. Mismatched Related Donor Versus Matched Unrelated Donor Stem Cell Transplantation for Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Acute Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Syndrome Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to compare the 1-year cumulative incidence of severe GVHD (from day of HCT) defined as Grade III-IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) and/or chronic GVHD (cGVHD) that requires systemic immunosuppression and to compare the disease free survival (DFS) (from time of randomization) in children and young adults (AYA) with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL), and Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) who are randomly assigned to haploHCT or to an 8/8 adult MUD HCT. Evaluation of Outcomes in Metastatic Gastric and Esophageal Carcinoma in Relation to Immunotherapy Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is: To assess the efficacy of treatment with checkpoint inhibitors (Pembrolizumab or Nivolumab) in metastatic gastric and esophageal carcinoma through retrospective chart review. To explore if response to checkpoint inhibitors is dependent on biomarkers on tumor tissue. A Study of a New Molecular Approach to Blood DNA Screening for Cancer Rochester, Minn. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the distribution of marker levels determined by this multi-marker, multi-compartment blood DNA test approach across persons without known cancer or precancer. T-DM1 and Tucatinib Compared With T-DM1 Alone in Preventing Relapses in People With High Risk HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine if the invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) with T-DM1 and tucatinib is superior to the iDFS in the control arm (T-DM1 + placebo) when administered to high risk patients with HER2-positive breast cancer and residual disease after neoadjuvant HER2-directed therapy. A Study to Predict Response to Virotherapy and Immunotherapy by Using an Ex-Vivo Three-Dimensional Patient-Derived Organoid Model of Pediatric Urological Cancers Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is threefold: the first aim is to use patient-derived fresh tumor tissue to create cell lines and 3D tumor models (i.e. organoids) that preserve the characteristics of the original tumor. The preservation of the original tumor's drug resistance/response profile will be a major focus of this aim. The second aim is to conduct high-throughput testing of various drugs (e.g., virotherapy, immunotherapy) on these cell lines and 3D tumor models. The completion of the second aim is an important step towards developing a platform that can help guide treatment decisions for future patients, based on the drug response observed in the cell lines and 3D tumor models. The third aim is to use pan-omics approaches (i.e., genomics, proteomics, metabolomics) to find markers of drug response based on the results of the high-throughput drug testing on the cell lines and 3D tumor models. Trial of Multi-epitope HER2 Peptide Vaccine in Patients with HER2-expressing DCIS Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, effcicacy and tolerability of H2NVAC in patients with HER2-expressing DCIS in order to prevent future invasive breast cancer among patients who are diagnosed with DCIS. Study of Rezafungin Compared to Standard Antimicrobial Regimen for Prevention of Invasive Fungal Diseases in Adults Undergoing Allogeneic Blood and Marrow Transplantation (ReSPECT) Rochester, Minn. The primary objective of the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority in subjects who received an allogeneic BMT for subjects randomized to Rezafungin for Injection compared to subjects randomized to the standard antimicrobial regimen (SAR) for fungal-free survival at Day 90 (±7 days). The primary objective of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for this study is to demonstrate superiority in subjects who received an allogeneic BMT randomized to Rezafungin for Injection compared to subjects randomized to the SAR for fungal-free survival at Day 90 (±7 days). A Study to Evaluate Minimal Residual Disease in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to compare whether minimal residual disease (MRD) flow cytometric assay is not affected by different anticoagulants. A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Molecular and Biological Phenotype of Peripheral Immune Cells in Solid Tumor Patients Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to investigate for potential mechanisms underlying the sensitivity and resistance to immune checkpoint modulating agents that lead to the identification of sensitivity/resistance biomarkers and development of novel immunotherapeutic approaches. A Study to Evaluate Regulation of the Metabolism of T-Cells by the Tumor Microenvironment in Ovarian Cancer Metastasis Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to analyze how the immune cell repertoire changes during early and late metastasis which could shed light into how the tumor microenvironment in metastatic disease becomes tumor permissive.

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.
