1. A Study to Collect Thoracic Specimens to Develop a Thoracic Specimen Registry

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

   The primary objective of this proposal is to develop a Thoracic Specimen Registry at Mayo Clinic. The purpose of the registry will be to support ongoing research in the etiology, early diagnosis, clinical management, and prognosis of lung cancer and other cancers and diseases of the thorax by developing a complete repository of specimens from patients with thoracic disease including but not limited to suspected lung cancer, mediastinal and pleural tumors and from patients at a very high risk of developing other thoracic cancers or other thoracic diseases. 

2. Study of CG0070 Given in Patients With Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer ,Unresponsive to Bacillus-Calmette-Guerin

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

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the activity of intravesical (IVE) administration of Cretostimogene Grenadenorepvec in patients with tissue pathology confirmed non-muscule invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who have Bacillus-Calmette-Guerin (BCG) unresponsive disease, with either carcinoma in situ with or without Ta/T1 disease.

3. Establishment of Preclinical Models from Patients with Gynecological Malignancies

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   Effective treatments for recurrent gynecological cancer are lacking, and there is a need for novel therapeutic options. One of the barriers to improving outcomes in this subgroup of patients is the paucity of tumor models that can mimic patient characteristics to study novel therapies. Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models are considerate the most representative pre-clinical model of human cancer, recapitulating the key characteristics of the original patient tumor. Other preclincal models to test drug effcicacy includes ex vivo 3D culture and 2D culture systems. In this study, we make and test preclinical models of gynecological cancers (ovarian, fallopian tube, peritoneal, uterine, vulvar, cervix, and vaginal) of any histologic subtype using surplus tumor specimens obtained at the time of routine tumor biopsy procedure, or clinically-indicated surgery.

4. International Penile Advanced Cancer Trial (International Rare Cancers Initiative Study)

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is an international phase III trial, with a Bayesian design, incorporating two sequential randomisations. It efficiently examines a series of questions that routinely arise in the sequencing of treatment. The study design has evolved from lengthy international consultation that has enabled us to build consensus over which questions arise from current knowledge and practice. It will enable potential randomisation for the majority of patients with inguinal lymph node metastases and will provide data to inform future clinical decisions. InPACT-neoadjuvant patients are stratified by disease burden as assessed by radiological criteria. Treatment options are then defined according to the disease burden strata. Treatment is allocated by randomisation. Patients may be allocated to one of three initial treatments: A. standard surgery (ILND); B. neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by standard surgery (ILND); or C. neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by standard surgery (ILND). After ILND, patients are defined as being at low or high risk of recurrence based on histological interpretation of the ILND specimen. Patients at high risk of relapse are eligible for InPACT-pelvis, where they are randomised to either: P. prophylactic PLND Q. no prophylactic PLND

5. Long-Term Follow-Up of Patients Who Have Participated in Children's Oncology Group Studies

   Rochester, Minn.

   This clinical trial is studying long-term follow-up in patients who are or have participated in Children's Oncology Group studies. Developing a way to track patients enrolled in Children's Oncology Group studies will help doctors gather long-term follow-up information and may help the study of cancer in the future.

6. A Study of a New Way to Treat Children and Young Adults With a Brain Tumor Called NGGCT

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to monitor outcome to ensure that children and young adults with localized central nervous system (CNS) non-germinomatous germ cell tumors (NGGCT) treated with Induction chemotherapy followed by response evaluation and whole ventricular + spinal canal irradiation (WVSCI) will maintain the excellent 2-year progression free survival (PFS) rate as compared to ACNS0122. Also, to improve disease control by decreasing the number of spinal relapses for patients who achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and receive WVSCI as compared to whole ventricular radiation on ACNS1123.

7. A Study to Provide Access to CTL019 Out of Specification Managed Access Program (MAP) for ALL or DLBCL Patients

   Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to provide access to CTL019 through Managed Access Program (MAP) for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients with out of specification leukapheresis product and/or manufactured tisagenlecleucel out of specification for commercial release.

8. Treatment of Metastatic Soft Tissue Sarcoma (STS) Patients (FIBROSARC USA)

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

   The present study is an open-label, randomized, controlled, two-arm multi-center study of the efficacy of L19TNF treatment in combination with doxorubicin versus doxorubicin alone in metastatic or unresectable soft-tissue sarcoma patients. In the study, 122 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive doxorubicin treatment (Arm 1) or L19TNF treatment in combination with doxorubicin (Arm 2). The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate if L19TNF in combination with doxorubicin (Arm 2) given for unresectable or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma improves efficacy measured as progression free survival, as compared to doxorubicin alone (Arm 1). Anti-cancer activity will be assessed every 6 weeks during therapy and every 12 weeks thereafter.

9. A Study To Compare Standard Chemotherapy To Therapy With CPX-351 And/or Gilteritinib To To Treat Newly-diagnosed AML With Or Without FLT3 Mutations

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare standard chemotherapy to therapy with CPX-351 and/or gilteritinib for patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia with or without FLT3 mutations. 

10. Effects of Cognitive Function, Post-op Fatigue and Quality of Life Comparing General vs Regional Anesthesia for Non-eloquent Brain Tumors Resection

    Jacksonville, Fla.

    The aim of the study is to create a registry to prospectively collect pre-operative, during surgery and post-operative data, questionaries will assess (at baseline before the surgery, 3-4 weeks, and at 3-6 months) cognitive function, assessed with a Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE), PROMIS Fatigue 7a form, quality of life (QoL), assessed using the SF-12 questionnaire, quality of sleep assessed using PROMIS Sleep disturbance 7a form (1 week after surgery).
