Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.271 studies in Oncology (Medical) (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. A Study to Evaluate Contouring Organs at Risk for Treatment Planning Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine: if the artificial intelligence (AI)-generated results are less arduous than manual tracing by radiation oncologist, and the non-inferiority of the quality of AI vs. manual tracing. These aims will be evaluated in a clinical environment to investigate the impact of an AI algorithm on the clinical workflow. Radiotherapy treatment planning requires precise calculations of radiation exposure, not only for the target volumes (tissue containing malignancy), but of nearby organs-at-risk (OARs), in which the exposure needs to be minimized. Manual segmentation of these organs is a time-consuming task with high interobserver variability. Producing these segmentations automatically will reduce the time required for treatment planning and improve the interobserver variability. A Study to Evaluate Circulating Cell Free Tumor DNA as a Biomarker in Sarcoma Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of ctDNA detection in patients with advanced translocation-associated sarcomas. A Study to Evaluate Factors in Breast Cancer Screening Among Asian Americans in Olmsted and Surrounding Counties Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of acculturation, socio-economic status (SES) and place of residence (urban vs. rural) on the level of participation in breast cancer screening programs and on the breast cancer knowledge and beliefs among Asian American women in Olmsted and surrounding counties. A Study to Determine the Effects of Activity by Ambulation in Hospital Premises versus Strict Protective Isolation on Quality of Life in Severely Neutropenic Cancer Patients during Hospitalization Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to determine if allowing patients to ambulate in the hallways outside of their hospital room by relaxing the policy of strict protective isolation in neutropenic patients improves the quality of life, and if this increases the risk of infection among these patients during hospitalization. SX-682 Treatment in Subjects With Metastatic Melanoma Concurrently Treated With Pembrolizumab Rochester, Minn. The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety profile of SX-682 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab in subjects with metastatic melanoma, including the maximum dose that can be administered until adverse effects prevent further dose increases (i.e., the MTD or recommended phase 2 dose), and the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). The secondary objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of SX-682 in combination with pembrolizumab on the basis of the objective response rate, the duration of response, and the rate of progression, and to characterize the single-dose and multidose pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of SX-682. A Study of APG-2575 Alone or in Combination with Other Therapeutic Agents to Treat Relapsed and/or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL) Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability, identify dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) / recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of APG-2575. Dose-Escalation Study of cevostamab (BFCR4350A) in Participants With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma (R/R MM) Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. This is a phase I, multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation study of cevostamab (BFCR4350A) administered as a single agent by IV infusion to participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (R/R MM). A Study to Compare Administering Olaparib Concurrently With Radiotherapy vs. Radiotherapy Alone in Treating Patients With Inflammatory Breast Cancer Rochester, Minn., La Crosse, Wis., Eau Claire, Wis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well radiation therapy with or without olaparib works in treating patients with inflammatory breast cancer. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy with or without olaparib may work better in treating patients with inflammatory breast cancer. A Study to Evaluate Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea in Breast Cancer Patients Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of the study is to alleviate the occurrence of chemotherapy-induced nausea (CIN) and to improve chemotherapy treatment outcomes. Recent research has shown that changes in the functions performed by the gut microbiome can cause the occurrence of chemotherapy-induced symptoms that include chemotherapy-induced nausea. A Study to Determine the Best Individualized Cancer Therapy Using Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) in Patients with GI, CNS, and Thoracic Cancers. Jacksonville, Fla. This study proposes to develop and maintain a biorepository of blood samples collected from patients receiving definitive chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer, locally advanced pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, or cervical cancer. The ultimate goal of this biorepository will be to provide the resource to initiate an exploration of ctDNA as a potential liquid biopsy for GI and Thoracic malignancy detection and surveillance.

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.
