Below are current clinical trials.

Filter this list of studies by location, status and more.

1. A Study of Intravesical Enfortumab Vedotin For Treatment of Patients With Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to test drug enfortumab vedotin in participants with a type of bladder cancer called non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). This study will also evaluate what the side effects are and if the drug works to treat NMIBC. A side effect is anything a drug does to your body besides treating your disease. In this study enfortumab vedotin will be put into the bladder using a catheter. A catheter is a thin tube that can be put into your bladder.

2. A Pilot, Randomized, Open-label Study of Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields, 150 kHz) Concomitant With Pembrolizumab for First Line Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) by RECIST 1.1 in subjects with TPS ≥ 1 percent.

   The device is an experimental, portable, battery operated device for chronic administration of alternating electric fields (termed TTFields or TTF) to the region of the malignant tumor, by means of surface, insulated electrode arrays.

3. Genetic Risk and Cancer Estimation Study

   Rochester, Minn., La Crosse, Wis.

   The purpose of this research is to develop a collection of known mutation carriers to analyze cancer risk and long-term clinical outcomes.

4. CAncer Survivor CArdiomyopathy DEtection (CASCADE) Pilot Study

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to improve the cardiovascular care of adult cancer survivors by contributing much-needed evidence regarding optimal surveillance and treatment recommendations. This application’s objective is to obtain the data necessary to plan an adequately powered randomized clinical trial (RCT) across a nation-wide network that will define prospectively the clinical and economic efficacy of a screening program that uses AI-ECG and/or NT-pro-BNP in an at-risk adult cancer survivor population.

5. Two Studies for Patients With High Risk Prostate Cancer Testing Less Intense Treatment for Patients With a Low Gene Risk Score and Testing a More Intense Treatment for Patients With a High Gene Risk Score

   Albert Lea, Minn., Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The puporse of this trial is to compare less intense hormone therapy and radiation therapy to usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with high risk prostate cancer and low gene risk score. This trial also compares more intense hormone therapy and radiation therapy to usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy in patients with high risk prostate cancer and high gene risk score. Abiraterone acetate may help fight prostate cancer by lowering the amount of testosterone made by the body. Apalutamide may help fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of androgen by the tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving a shorter hormone therapy treatment may work the same at controlling prostate cancer compared to the usual 24 month hormone therapy treatment in patients with low gene risk score. Adding abiraterone acetate and apalutamide to the usual treatment may increase the length of time without prostate cancer spreading as compared to the usual treatment in patients with high gene risk score.

6. A Study to Compare Nivolumab Administered Subcutaneously vs Intravenous in Melanoma Participants Following Complete Resection

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the drug levels of nivolumab administered subcutaneously versus intravenous administration in participants with melanoma following complete resection.

7. 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.

8. A Study to See if Memantine Protects the Brain During Radiation Therapy Treatment for a Brain Tumor

   Rochester, Minn.

   This phase III trial compares memantine to usual treatment in treating patients with brain tumors that are newly diagnosed or has come back (recurrent). Memantine may block receptors (parts of nerve cells) in the brain known to contribute to a decline in cognitive function. Giving memantine may make a difference in cognitive function (attention, memory, or other thought processes) in children and adolescents receiving brain radiation therapy to treat a primary brain tumor.

    

    

9. Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) in Cervical Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to answer whether plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) obtained by serial analysis before, during, and following surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and/or immunotherapy for cervical cancer will allow for risk stratification, individualized treatment decision making, monitoring of treatment response, and early detection of residual or recurrent disease in patients presenting with human papillomavirus (HPV) mediated cervical cancer.

10. A Study to Evaluate Tazemetostat Combined with Lenalidomide Plus Rituximab in Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Follicular Lymphoma

    Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of tazemetostat in combination with R2 in subjects with Relapsed/Refractory Follicular Lymphoma (R/R FL), who have completed at least 1 prior systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or chemoimmunotherapy.
