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

1. Methylation And Chromatin Abnormalities In Myelodysplastic Syndromes And Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia.

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess tumor cells from blood and bone marrow from patients with myeloid neoplasms for epigenetic dysregulation and abnormalities of chromatin and for immune activation and exhaustion.

2. Studying The Effect Of Levocarnitine In Protecting The Liver From Chemotherapy For Leukemia Or Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare  the effect of adding levocarnitine to standard chemotherapy vs. standard chemotherapy alone in protecting the liver in patients with leukemia or lymphoma. 

3. The Effects Of Acute And Chronic Exercise On Immune Phenotype Of Indolent Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma And Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Patients

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   This clinical trial studies the effect of short-term (acute) and long-term (chronic) exercise on immune characteristics and function (phenotype) of patients with indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Most newly-diagnosed CLL patients have early-stage disease at the time of diagnosis and do not require treatment. Despite not needing therapy, these patients have significant immune dysfunction. This may lead to an increased risk of serious infections requiring hospitalization and an increased risk of secondary non-blood-based (hematologic) cancers. Increasing CLL patients overall physical fitness levels, through exercise during the observation stage, may provide a realistic approach means to increase survival, decrease treatment-related side effects, and improve immune function. Information learned from this study may help researchers determine whether a particular exercise regimen can be used to strengthen the immune system of indolent NHL and CLL patients, delay time to disease progression, assess the need for treatment, and assess infection rates.

4. Pre-myeloid Cancer And Bone Marrow Failure Clinic Study

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

   The purpose of this study is to test a new technology called Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) that may help identify this risk associated with precursor conditions and the likelihood that they will change into overt blood and bone marrow cancers. NGS is a procedure that looks at relevant cancer associated genes and what they do.

5. A Study To Evaluate The Safety And Effectiveness Of Lisocatagene Maraleucel In Patients

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of nonconforming lisocabtagene maraleucel in patients, and to assess the effectiveness of nonconforming lisocabtagene maraleucel in patients.

6. AZD0486 As Monotherapy In Participants With Relapsed/Refractory (R/R) B-cell NHL

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a Phase 2 global, multi-center, open-label study to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of AZD0486 monotherapy in adult participants with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) who have received at least two prior lines of therapies. The study has 2 Modules: Module 1 for FL and Module 2 for DLBCL.

7. Wearable Artificial InTelligence For Cardiac Function And Health Monitoring

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of thist study is to find a cost effective CV surveillance of cancer survivors over long periods of time to prevent the risk of progression of HF and related morbidity and mortality. Mobile device-based AI-ECG can reliably detect cardiac dysfunction in lymphoma and sarcoma survivors  and smart watch based surveillance for cardiotoxicity is feasible and reliable.

8. Global Cardio Oncology Registry

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to provide a large database and platform for prospective sub-studies and eventually develop additional collaborations with a platform for clinical studies and trials following the initial pilot phase.

9. Reduced Dose Hypofractionated Radiotherapy For Indolent Non-hodgkin Lymphoma

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

   The purpose of thisstudy is to evaluate reduction of radiotherapy dose for patients with indolent NHL by conducting a prospective randomized phase 2 study comparing reduced dose hypofractionated ISRT of 9 Gy delivered over 3 fractions (BED 12 Gy) to standard of care 24 Gy delivered over 12 fractions (BED 29Gy), while simultaneously evaluating prognostic value of pre-radiation functional imaging parameters and molecular markers to predict treatment response and failure.

10. A Study To Evaluate EAA181 To Treat Newly-diagnosed Multiple Myeloma

    La Crosse, Wis., Rochester, Minn.

    The primary purpose of this study is to determine if bortezomib, daratumumab, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (Btz-DRd) consolidation followed by daratumumab and lenalidomide (DR) maintenance after standard induction therapy with daratumumab, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (DRd) results in superior overall survival compared to DRd consolidation followed by DR maintenance, in MRD positive patients.
