Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.114 studies in Surgery (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. A Study to Explore Ghrelin Levels with Primary Graft Dysfunction in Lung Transplant Recipients Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to investigate ghrelin, a peptide that mechanistically carries the promise of therapeutics benefit for diverse aspects of morbidity associated with lung transplantation. A Study to Analyze Waste Specimens from the Eye After Surgery Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to learn about cell function in different tissues of the eye in various ocular diseases via transcriptomics in the Mayo Clinic laboratory. A Study to Evaluate the Process of Aging in Human Atherosclerosis Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to critically test the hypothesis that senescent-cell derived factors (cell aging), in particular IGFBP3, suppress the innate repair capacity of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) in human atherosclerosis. A Study to Evaluate Biomarker Target Stimulation Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to understand how electrical stimulation of the brain can modulate and suppress interictal epileptiform activity as a step on the path to developing new therapies for epilepsy. A Study to Assess Cisplatin and Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Children and Young Adults with Hepatoblastoma or Liver Cancer After Surgery Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine how well cisplatin and combination chemotherapy works in treating children and young adults with hepatoblastoma or liver cancer after surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, fluorouracil, vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, etoposide, irinotecan, sorafenib, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy after surgery may kill more tumor cells. Breast Cancer: Can We Predict Pathological Complete Response following Neoadjuvant Treatment? Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. This project will investigate whether ctDNA analysis in newly diagnosed stage I, II, III breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant systemic therapy can predict pathological Complete Response (pCR). A Study to Evaluate Perceptions of Midline Sternotomy Scar in Children and Young Adults Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how children and young adults perceive their midline sternotomy scars (in terms of appearance, associated symptoms, consciousness, satisfaction with appearance/symptoms, and impact on quality of life)? A Study to Evaluate Long-term Outcomes of Pollicization Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assess long-term functional outcomes after pollicization. A Study to Evaluate Time to First Movement for Fetal Surgery Patients Injected with Intramuscular Anesthesia Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine the time from intramuscular injection to the time of first fetal movement after a fetal surgery procedure. A Study to Evaluate a Virtual Assistant for Plastic Surgery Patients Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of a recently developed artificial intelligence virtual assistant (AIVA) on plastic surgery patients and providers’ experience and leverage the use of new technologies to promote high-quality service and meaningful relationships between plastic surgeons and patients.

The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
