1. A Study to Predict Response to Virotherapy and Immunotherapy by Using an Ex-Vivo Three-Dimensional Patient-Derived Organoid Model of Pediatric Urological Cancers

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is threefold:  the first aim is to use patient-derived fresh tumor tissue to create cell lines and 3D tumor models (i.e. organoids) that preserve the characteristics of the original tumor. The preservation of the original tumor's drug resistance/response profile will be a major focus of this aim. The second aim is to conduct high-throughput testing of various drugs (e.g., virotherapy, immunotherapy) on these cell lines and 3D tumor models. The completion of the second aim is an important step towards developing a platform that can help guide treatment decisions for future patients, based on the drug response observed in the cell lines and 3D tumor models. The third aim is to use pan-omics approaches (i.e., genomics, proteomics, metabolomics) to find markers of drug response based on the results of the high-throughput drug testing on the cell lines and 3D tumor models.

2. MR-Guided Cryoablation of Prostate Bed Recurrences

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this research is to see if MR-guided cryoablation can effectively treat prostate tumor recurrences.

3. A Study of Nab-Paclitaxel as Maintenance Treatment After Cisplatin-Based Chemotherapy and Surgery for Patients with High-Risk Bladder Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate nab-paclitaxel as maintenance therapy after cisplatin-based chemotherapy and surgery in treating patients with high-risk bladder cancer. Maintenance therapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, can help keep cancer from coming back after it has disappeared following initial chemotherapy.

4. A Study to Test the Effectiveness of Two Immunotherapy Drugs (Nivolumab and Ipilimumab) with One Anti-cancer Targeted Drug (Cabozantinib) for Rare Genitourinary Tumors

   Rochester, Minn., Eau Claire, Wis., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to assess how well cabozantinib works in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab in treating patients with rare genitourinary (GU) tumors that have spread to other places in the body. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cabozantinib, nivolumab, and ipilimumab may work better in treating patients with genitourinary tumors that have no treatment options compared to giving cabozantinib, nivolumab, or ipilimumab alone.

5. Efficacy of Penile Traction Therapy Using a Novel Device

   Rochester, Minn.

   This clinical trial is designed to assess the safety, dosing, and preliminary efficacy of a novel penile traction device on correcting deformities relating to Peyronie's disease, a condition which results in penile curvature and length loss. The trial is designed as a randomized, placebo-controlled study with men randomized to receiving no therapy or penile traction therapy 30 minutes once, twice, or three times daily. The study will occur over a 3 month period, after which an open label phase for 3 months will be conducted. Final assessments for adverse effects will also be assessed at 9 months.

6. A Study to Analyze the Vaginal and Bladder Microbiome in Patients Undergoing Vaginal Estrogen or Vaginal LASER Therapy

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate vaginal microbiome at baseline and at 3 months in menopausal women with either vaginal atrophy (with or without rUTI) or rUTI, following treatment of vaginal estrogen and LASER therapy, to evaluate the bladder microbiome at baseline and at 3 months in menopausal women with vaginal atrophy with rUTI undergoing treatment of vaginal estrogen or LASER therapy, and to compare the microbial communities between women who undergo vaginal estrogen with those who undergo LASER therapy.

    

7. A Study to Analyze the Effects of Exparel for Post-Surgery Pain Control in Patients Undergoing Penile Prosthesis Placement

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of liposomal bupivacaine vs lidocaine/bupivacaine mixture in patients’ undergoing surgical placement of a penile prosthesis.

8. A Study of Heated Intra-peritoneal Chemotherapy (H.I.P.E.C.) with Doxorubicin and Cisplatin in Pediatric Patients with Pelvic and Abdominal Rhabdomyosarcoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with doxorubicin (DOXO) and Cisplatin (CDDP) after surgical resection of pediatric pelvic and abdominal tumors, and to assess morbidity, hospital length of stay and peri-operative mortality outcomes for pediatric patients with intraperitoneal sarcoma undergoing hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

9. Hypo-fractionated Proton Radiation Therapy With or Without Androgen Suppression for Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad of two treatment methods on subjects and their cancer. Proton beam radiation therapy is one of the treatments for men with prostate cancer who have localized disease. The benefit of the combination with androgen suppression is not completely understood. This study will compare the use of hypofraction proton therapy (28 treatments) alone to proton therapy with androgen suppression therapy.

10. An Expansion Study to Evaluate Dose Escalation, Safety and Tolerability of BND-22 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors

    Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of BND-22 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab or with cetuximab. The study will enroll advanced cancer patients with unresectable or metastatic disease who are refractory to or are not candidates for standard approved therapy and will be comprised of two parts - an initial "3 + 3" dose escalation phase with subparts 1A (monotherapy BND-22), 1B (BND-22 in combination with pembrolizumab) and 1C (BND-22 in combination with cetuximab) followed by a dose expansion phase (part 2)
