Clinical Trials Below are current clinical trials.550 studies in Cancer (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. A Study to Evaluate Minimal Residual Disease in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to compare whether minimal residual disease (MRD) flow cytometric assay is not affected by different anticoagulants. A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Molecular and Biological Phenotype of Peripheral Immune Cells in Solid Tumor Patients Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to investigate for potential mechanisms underlying the sensitivity and resistance to immune checkpoint modulating agents that lead to the identification of sensitivity/resistance biomarkers and development of novel immunotherapeutic approaches. Contrast-Enhanced MR Angiography Method in Comparison to Current Methods in Healthy Volunteers Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to look at a contrast-enhanced MR angiography method in comparison to current methods. The contrast-enhanced method can generate images with more spatial detail and can be used to view a much larger region of the patient’s body than is presently possible. A Study to Evaluate Regulation of the Metabolism of T-Cells by the Tumor Microenvironment in Ovarian Cancer Metastasis Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to analyze how the immune cell repertoire changes during early and late metastasis which could shed light into how the tumor microenvironment in metastatic disease becomes tumor permissive. A Study to Evaluate Colorectal Polyps with Dietary Inflammation During Colonoscopy Jacksonville, Fla. Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in both men and women in the United States (1). Colorectal cancer arises from colonic polyps. The major types of polyps associated with colorectal cancer development are adenomatous (tubular which is most common and other types are villous and tubulovillous) and serrated (hyperplastic, sessile or traditional) polyps with varying degrees of dysplasia (2). Hyperplastic polyps are common but they have a low malignancy potential (3). There is evidence that colonic inflammation plays a major role in colon polyp and colorectal cancer development. For example, inflammatory bowel disease is a major predisposing factor for colorectal cancer occurrence, implicating inflammation in the development of colorectal cancer (4). In addition, obesity, a chronic inflammatory state, is associated with increased colorectal cancer risk (5). However, the use of anti-inflammatory agents in the prevention of colorectal cancer is controversial, although there is some suggestion that its use may lower colorectal cancer risk (6,7). Diet may affect cytokine levels and inflammation (8). Diet rich in trans-fat and sugar has been shown to increase pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNFα (9, 10) and the Mediterranean Diet has been shown to decrease inflammatory cytokines (11) and decrease the risk of colon cancer in an UK study (12). Recently, the EDII was developed and validated to assess inflammatory potential of diet based on the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) (13). Here we propose to investigate the association between diet-derived inflammation, as measured by the EDII, risk of colon polyps during screening colonoscopy and colorectal cancer development. A Study to Evaluate Advanced Development of Desorption Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry for Intraoperative Molecular Diagnosis of Brain Cancer Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to explore the translational abilities of desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) as intraoperative diagnostic tool to identify cancerous versus noncancerous tissue and estimate the percentage of tumor infiltration in tissue biopsies, by monitoring depletion of N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and aberrations of the phospholipid signature of neurological tissue; and to identify the presence of IDH mutations by monitoring the 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) and, therefore, differentiate between IDH-mutant and wild-type gliomas. A Study to Evaluate Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) and Immunophenotyping as Potential Biomarkers in Patients Undergoing Regional Nodal Irradiation for Breast Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to estimate the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)detection rate and mutational load in breast cancer patients with indications for regional nodal irradiation. Targeted Therapy Directed by Genetic Testing in Treating Pediatric Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Advanced Solid Tumors, Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas, or Histiocytic Disorder Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this Pediatric MATCH screening and multi-sub-study phase II trial studies how well treatment that is directed by genetic testing works in pediatric patients with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders that have progressed following at least one line of standard systemic therapy and/or for which no standard treatment exists that has been shown to prolong survival. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit more from treatment which targets their tumor's particular genetic mutation, and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphomas. A Study to Evaluate Immune-related Biomarkers for Pathological Response in Stage II-III HER2-positive Breast Cancer Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to evaluate invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) of multi-epitope HER2 vaccine vs. placebo in combination with ado-trastuzumab emtansine (TTT-DM1) in patients with stage II-III HER2+ breast cancer with residual disease post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and to evaluate the safety of multi-epitope HER2 vaccine given concurrently with T-DM1 maintenance therapy. A Study of JNJ‐68284528 Out‐of‐Specification (OOS) for Commercial Release in Patients with Multiple Myeloma Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of cilta-cel OOS based on overall response of partial response (PR) or better (overall response rate, ORR) to treat multiple myeloma.
