Below are current clinical trials.

Filter this list of studies by location, status and more.

1. Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AMSCs) For Recurrent Glioblastoma

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   This study aims to evaluate the safety of local delivery of AMSCs for recurrent GBM by noting the incidence of adverse events, as well as radiological and clinical progression.

   To assess the preliminary efficacy of local delivery of AMSCs for recurrent GBM by comparing the clinical, survival, progression, and radiographic outcomes from patients enrolled in our study to historical controls from our institution.

2. Genetic Testing in Screening Patients with Stage IB-IIIA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer That Has Been or Will Be Removed by Surgery (The ALCHEMIST Screening Trial)

   Rochester, Minn.

   This research trial studies genetic testing in screening patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been or will be removed by surgery. Studying the genes in a patient's tumor cells may help doctors select the best treatment for patients that have certain genetic changes.

3. GENetic Risk Estimation of Breast Cancer Prior to Decisions on Preventive Therapy Uptake, Risk Reducing Surgery or Intensive Imaging Surveillance

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

   The primary aim of this study is to determine if the addition of an individual polygenic risk score (PRS) in addition to the Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool (BCRAT) or Tyrer-Cuzick (IBIS) score will aid women at risk of breast cancer in making a decision to take (or not take) medications to prevent breast cancer.

4. Study of BMF-219, in Adult Patients With Acute Leukemia (AL), Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), Multiple Myeloma (MM), and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)/ Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL)

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal biologic dose (OBD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of BMF-219 monotherapy (Cohorts 1, 2, 3, and 4).  

5. A Phase II Clinical Trial Comparing the Efficacy of RO7198457 Versus Watchful Waiting in Patients With ctDNA-positive, Resected Stage II (High Risk) and Stage III Colorectal Cancer

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

   The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of RO7198457 versus watchful waiting in patients with circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) positive, surgically resected Stage II/III rectal cancer, or Stage II (high risk)/Stage III colon cancer.

6. A Study to Evaluate Radiotherapy to the Whole Breast or Post-mastectomy Chest Wall Including Regional Nodal Irradiation

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

   The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of 5 fraction vs. 25 fraction radiation to the whole breast or post-mastectomy chest wall/reconstructed chest with regional nodal radiation.

7. A Study to Identify Biomarkers in the Blood, Saliva or Tissue for Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to identify a biomarker (or biomarkers) that is present when disease is present (i.e., at diagnosis or recurrence) and not present when disease is absent (i.e., after treatment, in HPV negative patients or in normal controls).

8. Studying the Effect of Denosumab on Preventing Breast Cancer in Women With a BRCA1 Germline Mutation

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this trial is to compare denosumab to placebo for the prevention of breast cancer in women with a BRCA1 germline mutation. A germline mutation is an inherited gene change which, in the BRCA1 gene, is associated with an increased risk of breast and other cancers. Denosumab is a monoclonal antibody that is used to treat bone loss in order to reduce the risk of bone fractures in healthy people, and to reduce new bone growths in cancer patients whose cancer has spread to their bones. Research has shown that denosumab may also reduce the risk of developing breast cancer in women carrying a BRCA1 germline mutation.

9. De-Escalation of Breast Radiation Trial for Hormone Sensitive, HER-2 Negative, Oncotype Recurrence Score Less Than or Equal to 18 Breast Cancer (DEBRA)

   La Crosse, Wis., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Albert Lea, Minn., Mankato, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether breast conservation surgery and endocrine therapy results in a non-inferior rate of invasive or non-invasive ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) compared to breast conservation with breast radiation and endocrine therapy.

10. A Study of Patients Undergoing Neoadjuvant Therapy for Resectable Non-small Cell Lung Cancer to Evaluate Perioperative Circulating Tumor DNA as a Prognostic Biomarker

    Jacksonville, Fla.

    The purpose of this study is to determine the validity of employing quantitative ctDNA as a surrogate marker for pathologic treatment response in patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy for Stage IIA-IIIB NSCLC undergoing curative-intent resection. We will assess the relationship between major pathologic response (≤10% viable tumor remaining) and percent change in levels of ctDNA concentration before and after neoadjuvant therapy.
