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

1. Long-term Follow Up of Patients Previously Enrolled in MC1137 (BEAUTY)

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

   The purpose of this study is to extend the follow up on the BEAUTY study (MC1137) cohort and collect additional blood samples to evaluate for minimal residual disease and tissue at the time of any breast cancer recurrence.

2. A Study to Evaluate APG2575 Combined with Novel Therapeutic Regimens To Treat Subjects with Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma and Immunoglobulin Light Chain Amyloidosis

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, identify dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD and recommended phase II dose (RP2D of APG2575 in combination with Pomalidomide/dexamethasone (Pd) in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM), or immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis, and to evaluate the safety and tolerability, identify dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD and recommended phase II dose (RP2D of APG2575 in combination with Daratumumab/Lenalidomide/dexamethasone (DRd) in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM).

    

3. Detection of Plasma DNA Methylation in Peripheral Blood from Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study aims to investigate the utility of using plasma DNA methylation to detect measurable residual disease or early recurrence/progression of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

4. Radioiodine Planar and a SPECT/CT Imaging With Iodine-123 for Evaluation of Follicular Thyroid Nodules Prior to Surgery

   Rochester, Minn.

   The objective of this study is to determine intensity of I-123 uptake in follicular thyroid lesions before surgery and correlate with final pathology findings.

5. A Study to Evaluate Pemetrexed and Pembrolizumab to Treat Recurrent and/or Metastatic Salivary Gland Malignancies

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

   The purpose of this study is to determine the response rate of the combination of Pemetrexed and Pembrolizumab in patients with recurrent or metastatic salivary gland cancer (R/M SGC).

6. Monitoring Symptoms to Help Young Women Take Hormone Therapy for Stage I-III Breast Cancer, ASPEN Study

   La Crosse, Wis., Eau Claire, Wis., Albert Lea, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of active symptom monitoring and patient education to patient education alone in helping young women with stage I-III breast cancer stay on their hormone therapy medicines.  

7. Minimally Invasive Molecular Approaches for the Diagnosis of Barrett's Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma

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

   This study will evaluate if the sponge capsule device can accurately detect the presence of Barrett's Esophagus and prevalent dysplasia/adenocarcinoma detection, in a screening population, with and without chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease.

8. Associations Between Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea in Patients With Genitourinary Cancer and Changes in Gut Microbiome

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is investigate if functions and composition of the gut microbiome are associated with the occurrence of chemotherapy-induced nausea (CIN). Also, to evaluate the feasibility of patient recruitment and retention, as well as specimen collection and to evaluate for changes in alpha and beta diversity as well as composition (i.e. relative abundance) of the gut microbiome from T1 to T2 in patients who do and do not report CIN at T2. In addition, to examine associations between microbial composition functional profiles at T1 and T2 in patients who report CIN at T2.

9. A Study to Evaluate the Development of Patient Derived Xenografts in Patients With Breast Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   Collection of tissue and blood from patients with residual disease after neoadjuvant systemic therapy for breast cancer. We hope to use these samples to find out why some patients still have cancer after they have completed neoadjuvant anticancer therapy.

10. The Pediatric Acute Leukemia (PedAL) Screening Trial - A Study to Test Bone Marrow and Blood in Children With Leukemia That Has Come Back After Treatment or Is Difficult to Treat - A Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and Children's Oncology Group Study

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to use clinical and biological characteristics of acute leukemias to screen for patient eligibility for available pediatric leukemia sub-trials.
