Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.501 studies in Oncology (Medical) (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. A Study to Evaluate the da Vinci® Xi™ Surgical System in Nipple Sparing Mastectomy (NSM) Procedures Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the da Vinci Surgical Systems in Nipple Sparing Mastectomy procedures. PTT-936, an Alpha Kinase 1 (ALPK1) Activator, Alone or in Combination with Anti-PD-1/L1 in Patients with Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a pharmacologically active dose (PAD) range of PTT-936, which may include identification of the MTD, administered as a single agent in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic solid tumors who have progressed after exhaustion of standard of care (SOC) or a SOC is not available. Study of Treating Patients with Vestibular Schwannoma with Aspirin Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the administration of aspirin can delay or slow tumor growth and maintain or improve hearing in patients with vestibular schwannoma (VS). A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Lisocatagene Maraleucel in Patients Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of nonconforming lisocabtagene maraleucel in patients, and to assess the effectiveness of nonconforming lisocabtagene maraleucel in patients. Impact of Surgical Removal or Reduction Procedures on Markers of Immune Function in Adult Patients with Renal and Bladder Tumors and Pediatric Patients with Genitourinary Tumors Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to find out more about certain markers of immune suppression in people with kidney tumors (whether the tumors are benign or cancer). Also want to find out if kidney tumor treatment leads to an improvement in these immune markers. Iobenguane I-131 or Crizotinib and Standard Therapy in Treating Younger Patients With Newly-Diagnosed High-Risk Neuroblastoma or Ganglioneuroblastoma Rochester, Minn. Despite recent improvements in outcome for children with newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma, cure rates remain unsatisfactory.Further, these gains have been the result of interventions during the Consolidation (tandem autologous stem cell transplant) and Post-Consolidation (dinutuximab immunotherapy) phases of treatment, while rates of disease control during Induction have not improved in recent COG trials. The current phase 3 trial seeks to improve the event-free survival (EFS) for children with high-risk neuroblastoma through early integration of promising novel targeted therapies: targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy with 131I-MIBG or the ALK inhibitor, crizotinib. After enrollment, patients will receive one cycle of Induction chemotherapy. Subsequent therapy will be based upon MIBG avidity and ALK status. Patients with MIBG-avid, ALK wild type (or ALK unknown) disease will be randomized to one of three arms: A) current COG recommended high-risk therapy including four more cycles of Induction chemotherapy and surgical resection of the primary tumor, Consolidation with tandem transplant and focal external beam radiation, and dinutuximab immunotherapy with isotretinoin; B) current COG recommended high-risk therapy with the addition of a block of 131I-MIBG after the third Induction cycle; or C) current COG recommended high-risk therapy with the addition of a block of 131I-MIBG after the third Induction cycle and substitution of busulfan / melphalan (BuMel) single autologous stem cell transplant in place of tandem transplant. Patients with MIBG non-avid, ALK wild type (or ALK unknown) disease will be non-randomly assigned to receive current COG recommended high-risk therapy without the addition of 131I-MIBG. Patients with ALK aberrant tumors (ALK tyrosine kinase mutation or ALK amplification) will be non-randomly assigned to receive crizotinib added to current COG recommended high-risk therapy. The primary endpoint is EFS and 774 eligible and evaluable patients are anticipated to enroll over approximately 5 years. Key secondary endpoints are toxicity, end-Induction response, and overall survival. Late effects of therapy including targeted therapies will be compared with late effects of current COG recommended treatments Embedded correlative studies seek to understand predictors of benefit and resistance to 131I-MIBG and crizotinib. Short Course Radiotherapy for the Treatment of Patients With Glioblastoma, SAGA Study Rochester, Minn., Mankato, Minn., La Crosse, Wis., Jacksonville, Fla., Eau Claire, Wis., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Albert Lea, Minn. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate non-inferior 12-month overall survival of patients with GlioblastomA (GBM) treated with dose escalated hypofractionated radiotherapy compared to standard of care. Also, to demonstrate the safety and favorable quality of life via physician-reported G3+ toxicitycompare if SBRT is non-inferior to standard of care on the proportion of overall survival of patients with glioblastoma 12 months after randomization. MelmarT Melanoma Margins Trial Investigating 1cm v 2cm Wide Excision Margins for Primary Cutaneous Melanoma (MelMarT) Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to determine differences in the rate of local recurrence and melanoma specific survival. A reduction in margins is expected to improve quality of life to back up evidence that less radical margins of excision may be just as safe. A Registry for Children Treated with Proton Radiation Therapy Rochester, Minn. The purpose of the Pediatric Proton Consortium Registry (PPCR) is to enroll children who have been treated with proton radiation in the United States in order to describe the population that currently receives protons and better evaluate its benefits over other therapies. The data collected from this study will help facilitate research on proton beam radiation therapy and allow for collaborative research. The PPCR will collect demographic and clinical data which many centers that deliver proton radiation therapy already collect in routine operations. Benevolent Tumor Tissue Repository Fighting for the Legacy of our Young Rochester, Minn. The aim of this study is to create a patient and patient-advocate catalyzed tumor bank for the retrieval, processing, analysis, and maintenance of pre-treatment, post-treatment and (when available) post-mortem soft tissue sarcoma (STS) tissue and tissue data with an emphasis on STSs occurring in younger patients (YP-STS). This resource-platform will be named Project BTTRFLY (Benevolent Tumor Tissue Repository Fighting for the Legacy of our Young).

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.
