1. Grief Among Older Adult Family Caregivers

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the trajectory of loss and grief over 12 months, the risk factors associated with high levels of pre-loss grief, and the preliminary effectiveness of ART for treatment of high levels of pre-loss grief among family caregivers (FCG) of persons nearing the end of life.

2. A Study to Collect Medical and Personal Histories, Blood and/or Tumor Tissue Samples from Patients Who are Long-term Survivors of Lung Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to collect medical and personal histories, blood and/or tumor tissue samples from patients who are long-term survivors of lung cancer. This study will help us to develop better ways to provide care and advice, develop better treatments to minimize long-term side effects, and improve the quality of life and outcome of lung cancer patients. This study will also help us to learn whether certain genes (inherited factors from your parents) increase the risk of developing or dying of lung cancer.

3. Melanoma In-transit Tissue Bank and Molecular Analysis for Personalized Therapies

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to establish a tissue bank to collect patient tissue for genomic analysis, allowing identification of genomic signatures that predict response and failure to the individual therapy.  Once this is complete treatment will be directed based on the genomic signature of patients individual tumor.

    

    

4. Upifitamab Rilsodotin Maintenance in Platinum-Sensitive Recurrent Ovarian Cancer (UP-NEXT)

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   UP-NEXT is a double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled study of the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) XMT-1536 (upifitamab rilsodotin) administered as an intravenous infusion for patients once every four weeks. Patients with recurrent, platinum-sensitive high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) including fallopian tube and primary peritoneal cancer expressing high levels of NaPi2b.

5. (Apex) CGT9486 in Patients With Advanced Systemic Mastocytosis

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to investigate CGT9486 for the treatment of patients with Advanced Systemic Mastocytosis (AdvSM), including patients with Aggressive SM. (ASM), System Mastocytosis (SM) with Associated Hematologic Neoplasm (SM-AHN), and Mast Cell Leukemia (MCL).

6. Specialty Compared to Oncology Delivered Palliative Care for Treating Acute Myeloid Leukemia

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether primary palliative care is an alternative strategy to specialty palliative care for improving quality of life, symptoms, mood, coping, and end of life outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

7. A Study of Navicixizumab Monotherapy or in Combination in Patients With Select Advanced Solid Tumors

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

   The purpose of this study is to investigate the antitumor activity of navicixizumab monotherapy or in combination with paclitaxel or irinotecan in patients with advanced solid tumors including:

   • Cohort A: Colorectal cancer (CRC);
   • Cohort B: Gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer;
   • Cohort C: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC);
   • Cohort D: Platinum-resistant/refractory epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer (ovarian cancer).

8. Circulating Tumor Nucleic Acids to Monitor Treatment Response in Metastatic Melanoma Patients

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   This project will investigate whether the analysis of nucleic acids circulating in the blood from tumors can allow real-time monitoring of treatment response to targeted therapy and immunotherapy for patients who have stage IV metastatic melanoma.

9. A Study to Evaluate Web-Based Physical Activity Intervention in Children and Adolescents with Newly Diagnosed Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in First Remission

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary purpose of this study is to compare the effects of a rewards-and web-based physical activity intervention that includes structured social interaction between participants to the same web-based physical activity intervention that does not include structured social interaction on fitness among children and adolescents following treatment for cancer.

10. A Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of Pembrolizumab Combined with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin in High-Risk Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

    Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

    The purpose of this study is to assess the antitumor efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab in combination with BCG, compared to BCG monotherapy, in participants with HR NMIBC that is either persistent or recurrent following adequate BCG induction or that is naïve to BCG treatment.
