Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.476 studies in Oncology (Medical) (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. Real-time Disease Monitoring of Metastatic Breast Cancer to Optimize Treatment Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to identify subtype-specific signatures for breast cancer using genomic positioning of plasma DNA fragments, and to validate changes in ctDNA levels as a biomarker for treatment monitoring in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Efficacy and Safety of REC-2282 in Participants with Progressive NF2 Mutated Meningiomas (POPLAR-NF2) Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of REC-2282 in patients with progressive NF2 mutated meningiomas who have either NF2 disease-related meningioma or sporadic meningiomas that have NF2 mutations. A Study to Develop Liquid Biopsy for Pediatric Brain Tumor Patients Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to confirm detection of the H3K27M mutation in patient biofluids (CSF, blood, urine, saliva) and uncover the molecular histone (alkaline protein) profile of H3K trimethylation and H3S phosphorylation in the circulating nucleosomes isolated from the biofluids of patients with H3K27M tumors. Gemini Study to Evaluate the Integration of Cancer Genetic Testing into a Cancer Clinical Practice at Mayo Clinic at Arizona Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of genetic mutations in cancer patients from various ethnic populations seeking care at Mayo Clinic cancer clinics. A Registry Called Every Child for Collecting Data and Biology Specimens on Younger Patients with Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this registry called Every Child, is to collect data and biospecimens from multiple body sources for younger patients with cancer over time. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care. A Study of Nivolumab and Multi-fraction Stereotactic Radiosurgery with or without Ipilimumab in Treating Participants with Recurrent Grade II-III Meningioma Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the side effects and best dose of nivolumab when given together with multi-fraction stereotactic radiosurgery and to see how well they work with or without ipilimumab in treating participants with grade II-III meningioma that has come back. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue. It is not yet known whether giving nivolumab and multi-fraction stereotactic radiosurgery with or without ipilimumab may work better in treating participants with grade II-III meningioma. I-SPY TRIAL: Neoadjuvant and Personalized Adaptive Novel Agents to Treat Breast Cancer (I-SPY) Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to further advance the ability to practice personalized medicine by learning which new drug agents are most effective with which types of breast cancer tumors and by learning more about which early indicators of response (tumor analysis prior to surgery via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images along with tissue and blood samples) are predictors of treatment success. Evaluating Intestinal Microbiome and Immune Function in Lymphoma Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to examine the microbiome and immune function in patients with active lymphoma, and in patients with a history of lymphoma who are in clinical remission. Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption (BBBD) for Liquid Biopsy in Subjects With GlioBlastoma Brain Tumors Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of using Exablate Model 4000 Type-2.0/2.1 in adults with Glioblastoma brain tumors to increase temporarily the permeability of the blood brain barrier, allowing increased passage of circulating free DNA (cfDNA) for sampling and analysis. A Study of Intratumoral Injection of Dendritic Cells after High-Dose Conformal External Beam Radiotherapy in Patients with Unresectable Liver Cancer Rochester, Minn. Group 1: The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of an autologous dendritic cells (DC) vaccine delivered by intra-tumoral injection in patients with primary liver cancer treated with high-dose conformal external beam radiotherapy (EBRT). Group 2: The primary purpose of this study is to estimate the progression-free survival rate at 2 years post-registration to see if treatment is efficacious compared to historical data Pagination Clinical studies PrevPrevious Page Go to page 3434 Go to page 3535 Go to page 3636 Go to page 3737 Go to page 3838 NextNext Page Request an appointment Expertise & rankingsResearch May 09, 2023 Share on: FacebookTwitter Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, and Mayo Clinic in Phoenix/Scottsdale, Arizona, have been recognized among the top Cancer hospitals in the nation for 2024-2025 by U.S. News & World Report.

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.
