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. Comparison of Acute Toxicities Between Patients Treated With Protons or Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy After Surgery for the Treatment of Endometrial or Cervical Cancer Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether proton radiation therapy (proton RT) reduces acute gastrointestinal toxicities at the end of treatment compared to intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). 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. 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. Study of INBRX-109 in Conventional Chondrosarcoma Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to evaluate INBRX-109 in unresectable or metastatic conventional chondrosarcoma patients. Niraparib in Combination With Trastuzumab in Metastatic HER2+ Breast Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new treatment using a potent Poly polymerase (PARP) inhibitor known as Niraparib. Niraparib will be combined with trastuzumab, a HER2-targeted agent, to evaluate the safety and tolerability in patients with metastatic HER2 positive breast cancer. It is anticipated that the combination of drugs will improve survival and have few side effects. The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) regulates cell growth and survival. Approximately 15-20% of all breast cancers are HER2-positive, which are an aggressive and fast-growing subtype of breast cancer. Study of Adjuvant Cemiplimab Versus Placebo After Surgery and Radiation Therapy in Patients With High Risk Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to compare disease-free survival (DFS) of patients with high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) treated with adjuvant cemiplimab, versus those treated with placebo, after surgery and radiation therapy (RT). The secondary objectives of the study is to compare the overall survival (OS) of high-risk CSCC patients treated with adjuvant cemiplimab, versus those treated with placebo, after surgery and RT -To compare the effect of adjuvant cemiplimab with that of placebo on patients' freedom from locoregional recurrence (FFLRR) after surgery and RT; to compare the effect of adjuvant cemiplimab with that of placebo on patients' freedom from distant recurrence (FFDR) after surgery and RT; to compare the effect of adjuvant cemiplimab with that of placebo on the cumulative incidence of second primary CSCC tumors (SPTs) after surgery and RT; to evaluate the safety of adjuvant cemiplimab and that of placebo in high-risk CSCC patients after surgery and RT; to assess cemiplimab pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity in human serum. A Study to Determine How BI 907828 is Taken up in the Tumor and to Determine the Highest Dose of BI 907828 That Could be Tolerated in Combination With Radiation Therapy in People With a Brain Tumor Called Glioblastoma Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to examine the pharmacological effects of the compound BI 907828 on patient tumors at an early stage of drug development. A Study to Evaluate MRTX849 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors with KRAS G12C Mutation Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. 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 Tirabrutinib (ONO-4059) in Patients With Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma (PROSPECT Study) Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purose of this study is to evaluate the effiectiveness, safety, and pharmacokinetics of tirabrutinib monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma PCNSL (Part A), and tirabrutinib in combination with one of two different high dose methotrexate based regimens (methotrexate/ temozolimide/rituximab or rituximab/methotrexate/procarbazine/ vincristine) as first line therapy in patients with newly diagnosed, treatment naïve PCNSL (Part B). Mayo Clinic is only participatin gin Part B, and only in the MTR regimen. 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.

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.
