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

1. A Study of JNJ‐68284528 Out‐of‐Specification (OOS) for Commercial Release in Patients with Multiple Myeloma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of cilta-cel OOS based on overall response of partial response (PR) or better (overall response rate, ORR) to treat multiple myeloma.

2. Natural History Evaluation Among Female Breast Cancer Survivors with Endocrine Therapy-Induced Alopecia

   Rochester, Minn., Mankato, Minn., Albert Lea, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to learn about potential side effects facing people who are undergoing treatments for their cancer, specifically, hair loss. While this is not a well-documented side effect of hormone-blocking medications (such as tamoxifen, letrozole, anastrozole, or exemestane), we have preliminary evidence that it is a problem for some patients getting this treatment.  This study will include some patients receiving the hormone therapy and some patients who are not, so we can better understand whether patients getting the hormonal therapy have more hair loss than patients who are not getting such.

3. A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Molecular and Biological Phenotype of Peripheral Immune Cells in Solid Tumor Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to investigate for potential mechanisms underlying the sensitivity and resistance to immune checkpoint modulating agents that lead to the identification of sensitivity/resistance biomarkers and development of novel immunotherapeutic approaches.

4. A Study of Women undergoing Mammogram Screening at Mountain Park Clinic

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The goal of this research is to identify risk profiles of women (with particular emphasis on Hispanic women) for breast cancer based on family history, breast density and other factors known to impact risk such as age, weight, age at menarche, age at birth of first child, etc.

5. Aggressive Malignancy PDX (Avatar) and Cryopreservation Program

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the ability to successfully create numerous validated patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models from patient tumor specimens obtained at surgery/biopsy via the new Pathology/TRAG cryopreservation protocol, and to generate a large catalog and repertoire of previously unavailable histologically validated PDX.

    

6. A Study of 177Lu-FAP-2286 in Advanced Solid Tumors (LuMIERE)

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of [177Lu]Lu-FAP-2286 as monotherapy in participants with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and breast cancer (BC) and in combination with chemotherapy in participants with untreated PDAC or relapsed NSCLC.

7. Rituximab, Romidepsin, and Lenalidomide in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of romidepsin and lenalidomide when combined with rituximab and to see how well this combination works in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned (recurrent) or did not respond to treatment (refractory). Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Romidepsin and lenalidomide may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving rituximab together with romidepsin and lenalidomide may be a better treatment for B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

8. A Study to Compare Somatostatin Analogues with Perioperative Antibiotics versus Prolonged Antibiotics

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to to determine the individual treatment effect of somatostatin and whether duration of antibiotic therapy coupled with octreotide provides improved outcomes after pancreaticoduodenectomy. 

9. A Study of CA-4948 in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma

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

   This is a multi-center, open-label trial of orally administered CA-4948 monotherapy in adult patients with Relapsed or Refractory NHL. The trial will be conducted in 2 parts: an initial Dose Escalation Phase (Part A) of CA-4948 in patients with Relapsed or Refractory Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, (RR NHL) and a Dose Expansion Phase (Part B) of CA-4948 in patients with RR NHL with and without myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MYD88) mutations. During Part B, patients will be enrolled regardless of MYD88 mutation status.

10. A Study to Evaluate Immune-related Biomarkers for Pathological Response in Stage II-III HER2-positive Breast Cancer

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

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) of multi-epitope HER2 vaccine vs. placebo in combination with ado-trastuzumab emtansine (TTT-DM1) in patients with stage II-III HER2+ breast cancer with residual disease post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and to evaluate the safety of multi-epitope HER2 vaccine given concurrently with T-DM1 maintenance therapy.
