1. A Safety to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosolized Chemotherapy in Ovarian, Uterine, Colorectal, and Gastric Cancer Patients

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) in 2 groups of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC), either due to primary ovarian, uterine, or gastric carcinoma (Arm 1) or to primary colorectal carcinoma (Arm 2), based on treatment-related adverse events reported by National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.  

2. A Study to Evaluate Regional Radiotherapy in Biomarker Low-Risk Node Positive Breast Cancer

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the effects on low-risk breast cancer receiving usual care that includes regional radiation therapy, with receiving no regional radiation therapy. Researchers want to see if not giving this type of radiation treatment works as well at preventing breast cancer from coming back.

3. Long-Term Follow-up Protocol for Subjects Treated With Gene-Modified T Cells

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   This is a prospective study for the long-term follow-up (LTFU) of safety and efficacy for all pediatric and adult subjects exposed to Gene-modified (GM) T cell therapy participating in a previous Celgene sponsored or Celgene alliance partner sponsored study. Subjects who received at least one GM T cell infusion, will be asked to roll-over to this LTFU protocol upon either premature discontinuation from, or completion of the prior parent treatment protocol.

4. Brain Tumor Repository

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The main objective of the Brain Tumor Repository is to allow access to coded patient data by researchers both inside and outside of the Mayo Clinic system so that important research questions can be answered.  Biospecimens will be collected and curated including excess fresh tissue collected during routine surgery, peripheral blood and urine at routine clinical followup times.

5. A Study to Evaluate CHIP and Hematological Toxicity After PRRT in Neuroendocrine Tumor Patients

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to combine robust clinical data (e.g., prior chemotherapy or radiation exposure, cumulative Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT dose)) with genetic and clonal abnormalities (blood-based CHIP panel) in studying the predisposing risk factors for developing hematological toxicity including t-MN in PRRT-treated neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients.

6. Phase 2 Study with TTI-622 and TTI-621 in Relapsed Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of ths study is to find out more about the side effects of two new drug combinations for lymphoma, TTI-621 and pembrolizumab and TTI-622 and pembrolizumab, and what doses of TTI-621 and TTI-622 are safe for people to take.  In addition, we want to learn if the drug combinations help your cancer.

    

7. 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.

8. 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. 

9. 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.  

10. A Study Testing the Effect of Immunotherapy (Ipilimumab and Nivolumab) in Patients with Recurrent Glioblastoma with Elevated Mutational Burden

    Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn., La Crosse, Wis., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Eau Claire, Wis.

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent) and carries a high number of mutations. Cancer is caused by changes (mutations) to genes that control the way cells function. Tumors with high number of mutations may respond well to immunotherapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies such as ipilimumab and nivolumab may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving ipilimumab and nivolumab may lower the chance of recurrent glioblastoma with high number of mutations from growing or spreading compared to usual care (surgery or chemotherapy).
