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

1. DALY 2.0 USA/​ MB-CART2019.1 For DLBCL

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

   The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of MB-CART2019.1 cells administered following a conditioning lymphodepletion regimen in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) subjects who failed at least two lines of therapy as measured by objective response rate (ORR) at one month.

2. 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.

3. Hematology Electronic Consultations (e-Consults) the Mayo Clinic Experience

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate hematology e-consults to determine their specific use, time to completion, advantages and disadvantages, perceptions from primary care physicians and specialists and economic impact. 

4. A Study of the Gene Make-up of Heart Tumors

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to help identify the biology of heart tumors and understand how and why they form.

5. Fertility Outcomes in Lymphoma Patients

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The objectives of this study are to analyze impact of radiation on fertility, to correlate the clinical outcome of fertility after chemotherapy and or radiation, and to evaluate the different modalities and cost/benefit of fertility preservation in lymphoma patients

   Lymphoma is a diversified disease with outcomes differing upon the types and subtypes of lymphoma as well as treatment modalities used. Fertility outcomes in patients treated with chemotherapy and/or radiation could vary and largely unknown.

6. A Study to Evaluate Colorectal Polyps with Dietary Inflammation During Colonoscopy

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in both men and women in the United States (1). Colorectal cancer arises from colonic polyps. The major types of polyps associated with colorectal cancer development are adenomatous (tubular which is most common and other types are villous and tubulovillous) and serrated (hyperplastic, sessile or traditional) polyps with varying degrees of dysplasia (2). Hyperplastic polyps are common but they have a low malignancy potential (3). There is evidence that colonic inflammation plays a major role in colon polyp and colorectal cancer development. For example, inflammatory bowel disease is a major predisposing factor for colorectal cancer occurrence, implicating inflammation in the development of colorectal cancer (4). In addition,  obesity, a chronic inflammatory state, is associated with increased colorectal cancer risk (5). However, the use of anti-inflammatory agents in the prevention of colorectal cancer is controversial, although there is some suggestion that its use may lower colorectal cancer risk (6,7). Diet may affect cytokine levels and inflammation (8). Diet rich in trans-fat and sugar has been shown to increase pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNFα (9, 10) and the Mediterranean Diet has been shown to decrease inflammatory cytokines (11) and decrease the risk of colon cancer in an UK study (12). Recently, the EDII was developed and validated to assess inflammatory potential of diet based on the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) (13).  Here we propose to investigate the association between diet-derived inflammation, as measured by the EDII, risk of colon polyps during screening colonoscopy and colorectal cancer development.

7. Human Blood and Tissues Repository for Neuroscience Research

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to collect adult human blood, cerebrospinal fluid, brain, and spine tissues/fluids at time of surgery in order to conduct future studies of the cellular mechanisms of tissue invasion utilized by brain and spine tumors of the central nervous system (CNS).

8. A Patient Access Program of Olaratumab for the Continued Treatment of Soft Tissue Sarcoma

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to continue to provide olaratumab to eligible patients who are currently receiving olaratumab commercially for the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma (STS).

9. A Study Of The Drugs Selumetinib Vs. Carboplatin And Vincristine In Patients With Low-Grade Glioma

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study aims to demonstrate that the efficacy of treatment with selumetinib as measured by event-free survival (EFS) is non-inferior compared to treatment with carboplatin/vincristine (CV) in previously-untreated low-grade glioma (LGG) not associated with BRAFV600E mutations or systemic neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1).

10. MC230818 Understanding the mechanisms of clonal and non-clonal cytopenia following CAR-T therapy (MC230818)

    Mankato, Minn., Rochester, Minn., La Crosse, Wis., Jacksonville, Fla., Eau Claire, Wis., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Albert Lea, Minn.

    Determine the preexisting and therapy-emergent germline and somatic variants associated with an increased risk of clonal and non-clonal cytopenia following CAR-T cell therapy.
