1. Dietary and Topical Magnesium Replacement or Supplementation in Patients with Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this research study is to find out if being on a magnesium rich diet and using a magnesium lotion on the skin will help to keep the magnesium blood level in a normal range or increase the magnesium level if it is slightly below the normal range or in the low end of the normal range. We also want to learn about the side effects and quality of life when patients are receiving different forms of magnesium.  

   Ancient Minerals Magnesium Lotion is an over-the-counter lotion that can be bought at a drug store or on the internet. The use of this lotion is considered investigational since it hasn’t been studied in lymphoma cancer patients with low magnesium levels before; however, the FDA is allowing us to use this lotion in this research study.

2. Understanding Financial Toxicity in Management of Advanced Prostate Cancer from Qualitative Approach

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to identify characteristics of financial toxicity unique to advanced prostate cancer, especially those areas not assessed through current objective measures, and describe how can these areas inform potential interventions to ameliorate financial toxicity.

   This aim will be accomplished through qualitative focus group study of advanced prostate cancer patients who exhibit both extremes of financial toxicity. Findings will be presented in a joint display with quantitative survey data obtained in a prior study.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

    

    

6. 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).

7. 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.

8. 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.

9. 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.

    

10. XmAb®20717 Alone or in Combination With Chemotherapy or Targeted Therapy in Patients With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

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

    The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and clinical activity of XmAb20717 alone or in combination with standard of care anticancer therapies in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have been treated with at least 2 prior lines of anticancer therapy.
