A Study of GDC-0199 (ABT-199) Plus MabThera/Rituxan (Rituximab) Compared with Bendamustine Plus MabThera/Rituxan (Rituximab) in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Jacksonville, Fla. This open-label, randomized study will compare the efficacy of GDC-0199 plus rituximab (GDC-0199+R) with bendamustine plus MabThera/Rituxan (Rituximab) (B+R) in patients with relapsed or resistant chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Patients will be randomized 1:1 into the two arms. Patients randomized to GDC-0199+R will be given GDC-0199 daily (oral, target dose 400 mg) and will receive 6 cycles of rituximab infused intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each 28-day cycle (Cycle 1: 375 mg/m2; Cycles 2-6: 500 mg/m2). Patients randomized to B+R will receive 6 cycles of treatment consisting of a rituximab infusion (Cycle 1: 375 mg/m2; Cycles 2-6: 500 mg/m2) on Day 1 and bendamustine infusions (70 mg/m2) on Days 1 and 2 of each 28-day cycle. Patients in the GDC-0199+R arm will continue GDC-0199 treatment until disease progression or 2 years since treatment start, whichever comes first. Anticipated time on study is up to 5 years. Study of Treating Patients with Vestibular Schwannoma with Aspirin Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the administration of aspirin can delay or slow tumor growth and maintain or improve hearing in patients with vestibular schwannoma (VS). Benevolent Tumor Tissue Repository Fighting for the Legacy of our Young Rochester, Minn. The aim of this study is to create a patient and patient-advocate catalyzed tumor bank for the retrieval, processing, analysis, and maintenance of pre-treatment, post-treatment and (when available) post-mortem soft tissue sarcoma (STS) tissue and tissue data with an emphasis on STSs occurring in younger patients (YP-STS). This resource-platform will be named Project BTTRFLY (Benevolent Tumor Tissue Repository Fighting for the Legacy of our Young). A Study to Evaluate Screening Contrast Enhanced Digital Mammogram (CEDM) in Study Participants at Intermediate Breast Cancer Risk and Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) Results Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a low-cost Contrast Enhanced Digital Mammogram (CEDM) protocol as a supplemental screening method to standard mammographic screening in women at intermediate lifetime-risk (and not undergoing annual MR surveillance) for breast cancer. A Study to Collect Clinical Data and Store Samples of Blood and Tissue for Current and Future Research Studies on Sarcoma Jacksonville, Fla. This study is being done to collect clinical data and store samples of your blood and tissue for current and future research studies on sarcoma. A Study to Collect Clinical Data, Blood Samples, and Tissue Specimens from Patients with Metastatic Breast Cancer Rochester, Minn. The purposes of this study are (i) to obtain and study biospecimens from patients with breast cancer that has either spread out of the breast or recurred after initial treatment(s), such as surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiation, and (ii) to collect information about patients, treatments, and the behavior of the underlying cancer. Research involving biospecimens that are linked to related medical information is one way to learn more about diseases. In this case, we seek to understand the mechanism of tumor spread and determine why people respond differently to specific cancer treatments. In general terms, scientists will study the cells, DNA, RNA, and proteins found in the tumor tissue and/or the blood to understand more about cancer and the body’s response to cancer and related treatments. Genetic Risk Estimation and Improving Health Disparities in Breast Cancer Screening of Racial Minorities Jacksonville, Fla. The aim of this study is to use the combine clinical risk assessment models that are already used in routine clinical practice with information derived from polygenic risk score (PRS) testing in women of racial minorities to see if this can improve adherence to recommended breast cancer screening and prevention strategies. Dynamics of Clinical Trial Discussions in Oncology to Identify Patient Barriers and Help Develop a Patient-centered Intervention to Increase Participation in Clinical Trials Rochester, Minn. The purposes of this study are to richly describe the content and dynamics of clinical trial discussions in oncology and compare the knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes of oncology patients, caregivers, and clinicians related to clinical trials, and to develop a multifaceted, patient-centered intervention for increasing patient understanding of and participation in clinical trials in oncology. A Study of Hematopoiesis in Patients with Monoclonal B Cell Lymphocytosis (MBL), B-Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL), and Healthy Controls Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine the cellular and mechanistic basis of bone marrow hematopoietic dysfunction in untreated Monoclonal B Cell Lymphocytosis (MBL) and B-Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) patients. A Study of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Biomarker Monitoring Progression and Treatment Response of Locally-advanced Unresectable and Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Therapies Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to determine if LIF (Leukemia Inhibitory Factor) level is positively correlated with disease progression and CA19-9 level in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients and is a reliable biomarker of response.

The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
