1. Social Determinants Of Migrant Health Factors Impacting Prostate Cancer Care And Survivorship Among Sub-Saharan African And Caribbean Immigrant Men

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   This study is being done to understand what social factors affect health decisions for those who have immigrated from another country by examining how the immigration from Sub-Sahara Africa affects the experiences of participants regarding health-seeking behaviors, care, and treatment of prostate cancer. It also examines similarities and differences among participants based on their region of origin in Africa.

2. A Study Of ABBV-383 With Relapsed Refractory Waldenström Macroglobulinemia

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and RP2D of ABBV-383 monotherapy for patients with RRWM and to determine VGPR or deeper response as the best response achieved with ABBV 383 within 12 cycles  of initiation of therapy for patients with RRWM.

3. Biorepository For Acute Leukemia Research

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this IRB protocol is to establish a specimen bank for research into acute leukemias. In particular, we plan to bank blood and bone marrow from patients with newly diagnoses or relapsed acute leukemia (AML or ALL) for future biological studies. By accruing samples both at initial diagnosis and at relapse, we will be able to investigate not only the biology of these marrow disorders, but also the changes that occur to render these disorders resistant to therapy. These activities are a first step toward identifying alternative therapies and subsequently beginning to personalize the therapy for these disorders.

4. Tafasitamab, Lenalidomide and Venetoclax for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine how well tafasitamab, lenalidomide and venetoclax work in treating patients with mantle cell lymphoma that has come back (after a period of improvement) (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory).  

5. GATE1: A Multicenter Phase II Study Of Pirtobrutinib, Rituximab And Venetoclax Combination Therapy For Patients With Previously Untreated Mantle Cell Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   Primary Objectives: To estimate the percent of participants who achieve a best response of complete response by the end of the PRV combination therapy in the induction therapy phase in patients with previously untreated MCL.

6. Randomized Phase II/III Trial Of Adjuvant Radiation Therapy With Cisplatin, Docetaxel-Cetuximab, Or Cisplatin-Atezolizumab In Pathologic High-Risk Squamous Cell Cancer Of The Head And Neck

   Rochester, Minn.

   This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well radiation therapy works when given together with cisplatin compared to docetaxel or cetuximab and docetaxel after surgery in treating patients with stage III-IV squamous cell head and neck cancer. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or transmit tumor killing molecules to them. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy is more effective when given with cisplatin, docetaxel, or cetuximab and docetaxel.

7. A Study Of Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic And Pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) In Patients With Hematologic Malignancies

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

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of APG-2575 as well as dose escalation and dose expansion stages.

8. A Study To Detect Pancreatic Cancer Using Circulating Tumor Markers

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary purpose of this study is to select and validate candidate methylated DNA markers (MDMs) (individually and in combined panels) for the detection of pancreative ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The potential complementary value of mutant KRAS and CA19-9 will also be evaluated.

9. A Study Of Intravital Microscopy (IVM) In Human Solid Tumors

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of performing HIVM in patients with deep space solid tumors during standard course of surgical resection.

10. CD19-Directed CAR-T Cell Therapy For The Treatment Of Relapsed/​Refractory B Cell Malignancies

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to find out more about the side effects of the CAR-T therapy called IC19/1563 and what dose of IC19/1563 is safe for patients.

    The therapy, IC19/1563, uses some of the patients own immune cells, called T cells, to kill cancer. T cells fight infections and, in some cases, can also kill cancer cells. In this study, some of the patient's T cells will be removed from their blood. In the laboratory, we will put a new gene into the T cells. This gene allows the T cells to recognize and possibly treat the cancer. The new modified T cells are called the IC19/1563 treatment. The dose of IC19/1563 will depend on when the patient is enrolled on to the study.
