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. Image-based Mapping of Brain Tumors Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to combine MRI images with histologic and genetic analysis of cancer (from blood and tissue samples) to improve the overall accuracy of diagnosis and effectiveness of cancer treatment. 3D Ultrasound Imaging for Breast Cancer Diagnosis Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveess of a new 3D ultrasound imaging technology combining B-mode, microvessel imaging, shear wave elastography, and machine learning for breast lesion diagnosis. Iberdomide, Daratumumab, Bortezomib, and Dexamethasone for Treatment of Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma, IDEAL Study Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to find the maximum tolerated dose of iberdomide for patients newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma, and to determine response rate during induction treatment when combined with daratumumab, bortezomib and dexamethansone. A Study to Evaluate Pembrolizumab Combined with Intensive Chemotherapy to Treat Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to determine how well cytarabine and idarubicin or daunorubicin with or without pembrolizumab work in treating patients with newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine, idarubicin, and daunorubicin, 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. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving induction chemotherapy with pembrolizumab may work better than induction chemotherapy alone in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia. A Study to Evaluate MRTX849 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors with KRAS G12C Mutation Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of MRTX849 in patients having advanced solid tumor malignancies with KRAS G12C mutation. Study of Tumor-treating Fields to Treat Leptomeningeal Metastases from Breast Carcinoma Involving the Spine Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the spinal array in treatment of patients with leptomeningeal metastases within the spine The median survival of patients with LM with treatment is generally less than 5 months. There are four FDA-approved drugs for intra-CSF use in LM, but all have shown limited activity with no clear increase in survival outcome with treatment. Intra-CSF treatment is also invasive, involving either surgical placement of an intraventricular reservoir, or treatment (intrathecal) via repetitive lumbar punctures, and there is risk of adverse events including vomiting, headache, arachnoiditis and leukoencephalopathy with treatment. Systemic chemotherapy, targeted agents and immunotherapy have largely been ineffective in treatment of LM, in part due to limited CNS/CSF penetration. New effective treatments are needed. TTF represents a new modality that is well tolerated with minimal adverse events. TTF has not produced significant additive toxicity when combined with systemic treatments. In addition, no invasive procedures are required, and treatment has been administered for long term without apparent cumulative toxicities. TTF is currently approved for treatment of glioblastoma and mesothelioma. TTF is currently under study for treatment of CNS parenchymal metastases, lung and pancreatic cancer. There is potential application for symptomatic treatment of LM and intradural, extradural and vertebral metastases. Given the lack of effective therapies for LM, TTF is a promising alternative modality that should be explored. In addition, the lack of overlapping toxicities would potentially allow the use of TTFields in conjunction with other ongoing treatments for the leptomeningeal or systemic cancer. For these reasons, we are proposing an exploratory, phase I feasibility study of TTFields in treatment of the spinal component of leptomeningeal metastases, If feasible, consideration will be given to expansion to a Phase 1/2 study in a selected cohort of patient with LM. Real-time Disease Monitoring of Metastatic Breast Cancer to Optimize Treatment Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to identify subtype-specific signatures for breast cancer using genomic positioning of plasma DNA fragments, and to validate changes in ctDNA levels as a biomarker for treatment monitoring in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Rituximab With or Without Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Patients With Minimal Residual Disease-Negative Mantle Cell Lymphoma in First Complete Remission Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla. This randomized phase III trial studies rituximab after stem cell transplant and to see how well it works compared with rituximab alone in treating patients with in minimal residual disease-negative mantle cell lymphoma in first complete remission. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant helps kill any cancer cells that are in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. After treatment, stem cells are collected from the patient's blood and stored. More chemotherapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. Giving rituximab with or without stem cell transplant may work better in treating patients with mantle cell lymphoma. A Study of Intratumoral Injection of Dendritic Cells after High-Dose Conformal External Beam Radiotherapy in Patients with Unresectable Liver Cancer Rochester, Minn. Group 1: The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of an autologous dendritic cells (DC) vaccine delivered by intra-tumoral injection in patients with primary liver cancer treated with high-dose conformal external beam radiotherapy (EBRT). Group 2: The primary purpose of this study is to estimate the progression-free survival rate at 2 years post-registration to see if treatment is efficacious compared to historical data A Study to Collect Medical and Personal Histories, Blood and/or Tumor Tissue Samples from Patients Who are Long-term Survivors of Lung Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to collect medical and personal histories, blood and/or tumor tissue samples from patients who are long-term survivors of lung cancer. This study will help us to develop better ways to provide care and advice, develop better treatments to minimize long-term side effects, and improve the quality of life and outcome of lung cancer patients. This study will also help us to learn whether certain genes (inherited factors from your parents) increase the risk of developing or dying of lung cancer.

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.
