1. A Study To Evaluate Acalabrutinib With Or Without Obinutuzumab To Treat Early-Stage Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma Patients

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

   This phase II trials studies how well acalabrutinib with or without obinutuzumab works in treating participants with early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Acalabrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as obinutuzumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether giving acalabrutinib with or without obinutuzumab will work better in treating participants with early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.

2. A Colon Bank for Early Detection of Colon Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to establish a biobank of samples (blood and stool) to support the development of non-invasive tests for early detection of colon cancer and its precursors.

3. International Hepatobiliary Neoplasia Registry and Biorepository

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

   This study is being done to:

   1. Create a registry of patients having or at risk for cancer of the liver or bile ducts (also known as hepatocellular carcinoma or cholangiocarcinoma), or gallbladder cancer, and those individuals who have normal risk factors in order to improve the ability to diagnose and treat these cancers. We will use information in the medical record in this registry including how far advanced the cancer is (stage) and what treatments are used to treat the cancer.

   2. A second purpose of this study is to obtain blood and tissue samples from participants having or at risk for developing cancer of the liver or bile ducts or gallbladder cancer to be used for future research testing. Future testing may include searching for changes in the genetic material (DNA and other molecules).

4. A Study Of Sonodynamic Therapy With SONALA-001 And Exablate 4000 Type 2.0 In Subjects With Progressive Or Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme (RGBM)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), maximum administered dose (MAD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for future study after treatment with SONALA-001 in combination with MRgFUS in subjects with progressive or rGBM.

5. Primary Tumor Research And Outcome Network (PTRON) Registry

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this registry is to collect clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic data specific for primary spinal column tumor patients, and evaluate it to understand the predictive factors which influence survival, local recurrence, adverse events, perioperative morbidity, and health related quality of life.

6. A Study Of A New Molecular Approach To Blood DNA Screening For Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the distribution of marker levels determined by this multi-marker, multi-compartment blood DNA test approach across persons without known cancer or precancer.

7. Efineptakin Alfa (NT-I7) Plus Pembrolizumab For The Treatment Of Recurrent Glioblastoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the response rate to the combination of pembrolizumab and NT-I7 in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

8. Onvansertib For The Treatment Of Recurrent Or Refractory Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia

   Rochester, Minn.

   This phase I trial evaluates the safety, effectiveness, and best dose of onvansertib for the treatment of patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Onvansertib is a drug that binds to and inhibits an enzyme called PLK1, preventing cancer cell proliferation and causing cell death.

9. Expanded Access Study For The Treatment Of Patients With Commercially Out-of-Specification Brexucabtagene Autoleucel

   Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn.

    

   The goal of this study is to provide access to brexucabtagene autoleucel for patients diagnosed with a disease approved for treatment with brexucabtagene autoleucel, that is otherwise out of specification for commercial release.

10. Differences In Immunological Effects Of Vitamin D Replacement Among African American Prostate Cancer Patients With Localized Versus Metastatic Disease

    Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla.

    The aims of this study are to evaluate the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency among B/AA prostate cancer patients and to determine the deficits in immunity associated with vitamin D insufficiency. Also, we will evaluate whether the peripheral blood immune cell function is different in B/AA prostate cancer patients with metastatic disease as compared with those with localized disease.
