Predicting Immunotherapy Response in Metastatic Kidney Cancer Rochester, Minn. Immunotherapy has revolutionized the therapeutic landscape for patients with metastatic RCC and response rates are higher than previously observed with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Despite this, there is a growing need for molecular markers that can help identify patients who will benefit from immunotherapy, especially in the landscape of multiple available regimens, potential toxicities and financial burden. In this study, we propose to use blood biopsies to study tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (tdEVs) to assess disease burden, monitor response to therapy, and to predict earlier disease progression. In addition to tdEVs, these samples will also be analyzed for other biomarkers (circulating immune cells) to assess if they can be used to inform on tumor-immune cell interactions in real-time and potentially identify responders to immunotherapy. Monoclonal Proteins by Blood Spot and Saliva Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and develop procedures for detecting monoclonal proteins via finger pick blood spots and saliva. Data will be compared to results of serum data collected for patient care during the same time. The test will be evaluated qualitatively against venipunctured data tested by Mass Fix. Turkey Tail Mushrooms for women with ER+/HER2- Breast Cancer Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to determine changes in proliferation (Ki-67) in ER+HER2-breast cancers that receive turkey tail administration. A Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of CFT7455 in Relapsed/Refractory Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma or Multiple Myeloma Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of CFT7455 administered orally in subjects with Relapsed/Refractory (r/r) Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) or Multiple Myeloma (MM) administered once a day (QD) as a single agent and in combination with dexamethasone. Testing the Addition of Abemaciclib to Olaparib for Women With Recurrent Ovarian Cancer Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to identify the side effects and best dose of abemaciclib when given together with olaparib in treating patients with ovarian cancer that responds at first to treatment with drugs that contain the metal platinum but then comes back within a certain period (recurrent platinum-resistant). Abemaciclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Olaparib is an inhibitor of PARP, an enzyme that helps repair deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) when it becomes damaged. Blocking PARP may help keep tumor cells from repairing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. PARP inhibitors are a type of targeted therapy. Adding abemaciclib to olaparib may work better to treat recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. A Study of Prostate Cancer Care and Survivorship Among Sub-Saharan African Immigrant Impacted by Social Determinants of Migrant Health Factors Rochester, Minn. The primary objective of this study is to employ the social determinant of migrant health framework (International Organization for Migration, n.d.) to examine the impact of immigration on the health-seeking behaviors of Sub-Saharan African Immigrant (SSAI) including informed-decision making, psychosocial effects and coping mechanisms. 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. 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. 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. A Study to Evaluate Hemorrhage and Thrombosis in Hematology Malignancies Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to determine: the incidence of hemorrhage in the 3 months following deep vein thrombosis diagnosis in hospitalized malignant hematology patients, based on anticoagulant use and presence of thrombocytopenia, and recurrent or progressive venous thromboembolism in the 3 months following deep vein thrombosis diagnosis in hospitalized malignant hematology patients, based on anticoagulant use and presence of thrombocytopenia.

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.
