Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.355 studies in Oncology (Medical) (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. Cellular Immunotherapy for Viral Induced Cancer - EBV Positive Lymphomas Rochester, Minn. To investigate the efficacy of autologous Epstein-barr virus (EBV)-specific T cells for the treatment of EBV positive Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) and Post-transplant Lymphoproliferative Disease (PTLD) after failing first line treatment. 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. Dose Escalation Study of mRNA-2752 for Intratumoral Injection to Participants in Advanced Malignancies Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of escalating intratumoral doses of mRNA-2752 in participants with relapsed/refractory solid tumor malignancies or lymphoma. A Study of Proton Radiation Divided into Fewer Doses for Low Risk Prostate Cancer Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects (good and bad) on patients with prostate cancer by comparing the standard dose of radiation therapy (44 treatments over 8½-9 weeks) with a higher daily dose of radiation (5 treatments over 1-2 weeks) to see if the effects of the treatments are similar or better. A Study to Evaluate Olaparib and Temozolomide in Treating Patients With Advanced, Metastatic, or Unresectable Uterine Leiomyosarcoma Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate olaparib and temozolomide in treating patients with uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) that has spread to other places of the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving olaparib and temozolomide may work better than giving either drug alone in treating patients with LMS. MElanoma Research Lymph node prediction Implementation National_001 (MERLIN_001) Rochester, Minn. This study aims to create a registry for primary melanoma gene-signature to predict sentinel node (SN) status and determine its prognostic value for more accurate staging of SN-negative melanoma patients. PLX038 for the Treatment of Metastatic Ovarian, Peritoneal, and Fallopian Tube Cancers Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine the response rate to PLX-038 in patients with metastatic ovarian, primary peritoneal, and fallopian tube cancers that are resistant to platinum drugs. Interviews About Social Determinants of Health in Southeast Asian Americans to Identify Liver Cancer Disparities Rochester, Minn. This study is intended to understand the experiences and barriers to cancer care for individuals diagnosed with liver or any other type of cancer. Individual interviews will be conducted. A Study to Determine the Effect of Distance Reiki on Patient Reported Quality of Life (PRQoL) and Immunity Among Multiple Myeloma Patients Rochester, Minn. This study aims to demonstrate acceptability and feasibility of the use of Distance Reiki therapy versus sham Reiki therapy among multiple myeloma patients.It also aims to determine if there is a minimal clinically meaningful improvement in various QOL domains (Physical, Social, Emotional), overall QOL with use of Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS-29) and Single Item Linear Analogue Scale (LASA) after Distance Reik. Lastly, it aims to analyze the effect of Distance Reiki on expansion of the immune repertoire by comparing immune repertoires at baseline and at the end of the study by using Mass spectrometry by CyTOF® and multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) sequencing of the T-cell receptors (TCRs) for assessment of immune repertoire diversity by iRepertoire®. Probiotics Preventing Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor-Induced Colitis Jacksonville, Fla. This is a prospective, pilot, single arm study to evaluate the incidence of IIC in patients with solid malignancies receiving VSL#3 and ICIs. Given the fact that the effects of over-the-counter probiotics in reducing the risks of IIC remains largely unknown. Given that this is a small pilot study to generate preliminary data, there will be no randomization in this trial. The results of this trial will provide a foundation for the future development of larger definitive randomized controlled trials. Patients with solid malignancy who will be receiving ICI as per standard of care will be enrolled in this trial. Patients will receive VSL#3® 450B sachets probiotics, which will be provided as part of this trial, at least 3 days but preferably 1-2 weeks prior to starting on ICIs. Patients will be followed per standard of care during ICI treatment and continue VSL#3 for 12 more weeks while on ICI. Patients will complete dietary questionnaire and have research blood draws and stool collections at baseline prior to starting VSL#3 and 3 additional time points. Adherence to the probiotic schedule will be captured in a study diary. Adverse events as well as incidence and severity of IIC will be graded using NCI CTCAE version 5. Patients will have imaging performed per standard of care. Primary Goal To evaluate the incidence of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI)-induced colitis (IIC) in patients with solid malignancies receiving over-the-counter multi-strain probiotic blend and ICIs in both cohorts: (1) anti-CTLA-4 +/- anti-PD-1/PD-L1, and (2) anti-PD-1/PD-L1 +/- chemo. Secondary Goals To evaluate the safety of multi-strain probiotic blend in cancer patients receiving ICIs. To evaluate the clinical outcomes related to IIC, including the incidence of IIC, hospitalization, treatment delays, and administration of immunosuppressants. Exploratory Goals To evaluate changes in gut microbiome with ICIs and multi-strain probiotic blend. To evaluate changes in immune response with ICIs and multi-strain probiotic blend.

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.
