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

1. Blood And Urine Identification Of Methylated DNA Markers In Invasive Bladder Carcinoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to, in tissue, discover and validate DNA methylation markers (MDMs) for detection of invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. In blood, to assess the accuracy of candidate MDMs from above for detection of invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. In urine, to explore the accuracy of candidate MDMs from above for detection of invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder.  Diagnostic accuracy on urine can be compared with that on plasma using paired samples.

2. A Prospective Ocular Tumor Study

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to use clinical, imaging, molecular, and epidemiological investigation toward the goal of providing new knowledge about ocular tumors that will be useful in understanding, diagnosing, monitoring, and suggesting new avenues of treatment. This study does not involve experimental treatment of any ocular tumor, but rather observation of tumor natural history or outcomes following standard of care therapy, associated systemic and ocular conditions, and basic research investigations to better understand tumor biomarkers and pathophysiology.

3. A Study Of CGM In GBM

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

   The purpose of this study is to compare standard glucose monitoring versus continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) with endocrinology-guided intervention in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) patients receiving standard-of-care therapy.

4. ROF2181

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

   Currently, only a few international institutions use CIRT to treat pelvic bone sarcomas. Accordingly, data evaluating the potential differences in oncological outcomes, toxicities, and functional outcomes between CIRT and the more readily accessible local therapies of surgery and PT is scarce. For this reason, we propose conducting a prospective comparative effectiveness study evaluating functional outcomes, toxicities, and local control in patients with pelvic bone sarcomas treated with surgery, PT, and CIRT.

5. 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.

6. 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.
