Below are current clinical trials.

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

1. ALPN-202 With PD-1 Inhibition In Advanced Malignancies

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

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate ALPN-202 with PD-1 inhibition to treat adults with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma.

2. IL-2 Plus FOLFOX And Nivolumab For Treatment Of Peritoneal Metastases

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reduction in the peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) after completion of the study treatment.

3. A Study To Assess Dynamic Changes In Plasma Proteome To Identify Early Detection And Treatment Response Biomarkers For HGSOC

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study aims to identify candidate High Grade Serous Cancer (HGSC) early detection and chemotherapy treatment response biomarkers.  For the purpose of this study we define high grade serous cancers to include invasive cancers arising in the ovary and/or fallopian tubes (FT).  Using mass spectrometry we will deeply profile and quantitate dynamic changes in the plasma proteome and N-gylcocapture sub-proteome that occur as a consequence of surgical debulking and platinum-based chemotherapy.  

4. Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AMSCs) For Recurrent Glioblastoma

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   This study aims to evaluate the safety of local delivery of AMSCs for recurrent GBM by noting the incidence of adverse events, as well as radiological and clinical progression.

   To assess the preliminary efficacy of local delivery of AMSCs for recurrent GBM by comparing the clinical, survival, progression, and radiographic outcomes from patients enrolled in our study to historical controls from our institution.

5. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole Graded Administration in Oncology, Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant, and Solid Organ Transplant Patients with a History of Sulfonamide Allergy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The aim of this study is to study the efficacy and safety of our short and long one-day protocols for TMP-SMX graded administration in hematologic malignancy, hematopoietic stem cell transplant, and solid organ transplant patients.    

6. Effects of Cognitive Function, Post-op Fatigue and Quality of Life Comparing General vs Regional Anesthesia for Non-eloquent Brain Tumors Resection

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The aim of the study is to create a registry to prospectively collect pre-operative, during surgery and post-operative data, questionaries will assess (at baseline before the surgery, 3-4 weeks, and at 3-6 months) cognitive function, assessed with a Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE), PROMIS Fatigue 7a form, quality of life (QoL), assessed using the SF-12 questionnaire, quality of sleep assessed using PROMIS Sleep disturbance 7a form (1 week after surgery).

7. A Study to See if the Depth of Tumor Invasion of Esophageal Carcinoma Predicts Lymph Node Involvement and Cancer Free Survival

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to see if different depths of submucosal tumor invasion in esophageal cancer can predict lymph node involvement and survival.

8. Pre-operative Vs. Post-operative Radiosurgery For Metastatic Brain Tumors

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

   The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is an increase in the time of a first occurrence of either: local recurrence, leptomeningeal disease, or symptomatic radiation brain necrosis in patients with brain metastases who receive SRS prior to surgery as compared to patients who receive surgery prior to SRS.

    

9. A Study To Evaluate Personalized Molecular Marker And Immunoprofiling To Transform Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treatment

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether profiling aggressive tumors for molecular alterations, together with drug testing in patient-derived 3D models, can provide crucial information for the identification of specific therapeutic targets. Additionally, immunoprofiling of microcancer model systems is crucially necessary data to enable prediction of immunotherapeutic efficacy. We postulate that our innovative approach will establish much needed immune microenvironment information and facilitate the identification of specific sensitivity profiles and biomarker signatures that correlate response to targeted agents (or combinations) with particular tumor profiles.

10. A Study Of Cell, Serum, And Bone Marrow Bank For Patients Receiving Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy For The Treatment Of Cancer

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

    The purpose of this study is to store blood, serum and bone marrow so that they can be used for laboratory studies that may contribute to finding the exact function of the CART cells or T-cell engager therapy such as bispecific and trispecific antibodies and the factors that may determine disease progression and treatment response.
