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. Exploring the Role of B-cell Activating Factor Receptor (BAFFR)-based Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR T) in BAFFR-expressing B-cell Hematologic Malignancies and Autoimmune Rheumatologic Disorders Jacksonville, Fla. The purposes of this study are to explore the therapeutic efficacy of BAFFR-CAR T cells in BAFFR-expressing B-cell hematologic malignancies including large B-cell, mantle cell and follicular lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-cell ALL) using primary tumor and/or patient derived xenograft models, and to explore the therapeutic efficacy of BAFFR-CAR T cells in autoimmune rheumatologic diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis using primary samples and/or patient derived xenograft models. Phase I Trial of Sargramostim and Nivolumab for Metastatic Melanoma to the Lung Rochester, Minn. This phase I trial is looking to see if sargramostim given with a nebulizer, in combination with standard immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy with nivolumab can help control melanoma that has metastasized to the lungs. A Study to Identify Late-Occurring Complications in Childhood Cancer Survivors Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this trial is to identify cancer survivors who are at increased risk of developing late-occurring complications after undergoing treatment for childhood cancer. A patient's genes may affect the risk of developing complications, such as congestive heart failure, heart attack, stroke, and second cancer, years after undergoing cancer treatment. Genetic studies may help doctors identify survivors of childhood cancer who are more likely to develop late complications. ACT-MBC: A Study of Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) in Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) (ACT-MBC) Mankato, Minn., Rochester, Minn., Eau Claire, Wis., Albert Lea, Minn. Collection of blood to track serial circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in subjects with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Study will also collect data from investigators are Mayo Clinic and the Mayo Clinic Health Systems to determine effectiveness of the proposed process. A Study of Proton Radiation Divided into Fewer Doses for Low Risk Prostate Cancer Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects (good and bad) on patients with prostate cancer by comparing the standard dose of radiation therapy (44 treatments over 8½-9 weeks) with a higher daily dose of radiation (5 treatments over 1-2 weeks) to see if the effects of the treatments are similar or better. A Study to Compare of the Glycotest™ HCC Panel vs AFP for the Detection of Early-stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to compare the use of the Glycotest HCC Panel vs. the serum protein biomarker alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) for the early detection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Cardiotoxic Effects of Chemotherapy in Patients with Sarcomas Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine if two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) derived-strain can detect early myocardial dysfunction and thus predict cardiotoxicity in sarcoma subjects undergoing anthracycline therapy and to compare three dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE) to 2D-STE in the same group of patients. A Study to Detect Pancreatic Cancer Using Circulating Tumor Markers Rochester, Minn. The primary purpose of this study is to select and validate candidate methylated DNA markers (MDMs) (individually and in combined panels) for the detection of pancreative ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The potential complementary value of mutant KRAS and CA19-9 will also be evaluated. Changes in Blood Components in Patients with Ovarian Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assemble a collection of serial plasma biospecimens from women with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer for future research projects to identify changes in levels of various plasma components that occur during the course of ovarian cancer, including changes that occur with debulking surgery, chemotherapy, disease relapse, and subsequent therapy. A Study to Detect Actionable or Predictive Tumor DNA Mutations in Peripheral Blood (Liquid Biopsy) from Patients with Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of isolating circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and cfDNA from patients with CCA for molecular characterization and compare the mutation results between peripheral blood and tumor tissue.

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.
