Clinical Trials Below are current clinical trials.518 studies in Cancer (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. Biorepository for Acute Leukemia Research Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this IRB protocol is to establish a specimen bank for research into acute leukemias. In particular, we plan to bank blood and bone marrow from patients with newly diagnoses or relapsed acute leukemia (AML or ALL) for future biological studies. By accruing samples both at initial diagnosis and at relapse, we will be able to investigate not only the biology of these marrow disorders, but also the changes that occur to render these disorders resistant to therapy. These activities are a first step toward identifying alternative therapies and subsequently beginning to personalize the therapy for these disorders. Study of Validated Biomarkers in Urine for Patients with Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assess the accuracy of DNA marker candidates (individually and in combination) assayed from urine and prostatic fluid (collected following digital prostate massage) for detection of prostate cancer. A Study to Evaluate the Use of Organoids to Advance Precision Medicine in Bladder Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to develop patient-derived organoid cultures of urothelial carcinoma from non-invasively obtained urine samples and to characterize the histological, molecular and functional features of patient-derived organoids. Predicting Immunotherapy Response in Metastatic Kidney Cancer Rochester, Minn. Immunotherapy has revolutionized the therapeutic landscape for patients with metastatic RCC and response rates are higher than previously observed with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Despite this, there is a growing need for molecular markers that can help identify patients who will benefit from immunotherapy, especially in the landscape of multiple available regimens, potential toxicities and financial burden. In this study, we propose to use blood biopsies to study tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (tdEVs) to assess disease burden, monitor response to therapy, and to predict earlier disease progression. In addition to tdEVs, these samples will also be analyzed for other biomarkers (circulating immune cells) to assess if they can be used to inform on tumor-immune cell interactions in real-time and potentially identify responders to immunotherapy. Monoclonal Proteins by Blood Spot and Saliva Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and develop procedures for detecting monoclonal proteins via finger pick blood spots and saliva. Data will be compared to results of serum data collected for patient care during the same time. The test will be evaluated qualitatively against venipunctured data tested by Mass Fix. A Study to Compare of the Glycotest™ HCC Panel vs AFP for the Detection of Early-stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to compare the use of the Glycotest HCC Panel vs. the serum protein biomarker alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) for the early detection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Cardiotoxic Effects of Chemotherapy in Patients with Sarcomas Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine if two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) derived-strain can detect early myocardial dysfunction and thus predict cardiotoxicity in sarcoma subjects undergoing anthracycline therapy and to compare three dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE) to 2D-STE in the same group of patients. Cellular Immunotherapy for Viral Induced Cancer - EBV Positive Lymphomas Rochester, Minn. To investigate the efficacy of autologous Epstein-barr virus (EBV)-specific T cells for the treatment of EBV positive Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) and Post-transplant Lymphoproliferative Disease (PTLD) after failing first line treatment. Dose Escalation Study of mRNA-2752 for Intratumoral Injection to Participants in Advanced Malignancies Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of escalating intratumoral doses of mRNA-2752 in participants with relapsed/refractory solid tumor malignancies or lymphoma. Changes in Blood Components in Patients with Ovarian Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assemble a collection of serial plasma biospecimens from women with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer for future research projects to identify changes in levels of various plasma components that occur during the course of ovarian cancer, including changes that occur with debulking surgery, chemotherapy, disease relapse, and subsequent therapy.
