   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to monitor T cell responses from patients with advanced cancer who are being treated with an anti-PD (programmed death)-1 monoclonal antibody, and compare them with clinical outcomes.

5. Human Saliva as a Non-Invasive Tool for Cancer Diagnostics Using Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

   Eau Claire, Wis.

   The purpose of this study is to develop a rapid, reliable, inexpensive, and non-invasive method for cancer detection and screening. To use Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS), a powerful analytical technique that provides detailed and specific information at a molecular level, to detect cancer biomarkers in a patient’s saliva.  

6. Study of AG-270 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma With MTAP Loss

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of AG-270 and characterize its dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) when given daily by mouth to subjects with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma with homozygous deletion of methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP).

   1. Establish a prospective database of all patients with peritoneal surface malignancies seen by Dr. Travis Grotz at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester.
   2. Design and implement quality improvement projects utilizing this database
   3. Design and implement outcomes research using this prospective database
   4. Design and implement quality of life studies using this prospective database

8. Alternate Doses and Dosing Schedules of Belantamab Mafodotin for the Treatment of Triple-Class Recurrent and/or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the 24-week grade 3/4 keratopathy-free rate of an alternative dose/dosing schedule for belantamab mafodotin in patients with Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma (RRMM).

    

9. Study of Gastric Cancer and Limited Peritoneal Metastasis Using Robotic Cytoreduction and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess short-term morbidity and disease-free survival outcomes for patients with gastric adenocarcinoma with limited low volume peritoneal metastasis and/or positive peritoneal cytology undergoing robotic cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

10. Combination Therapy of Acalabrutinib, Venetoclax and Durvalumab to Treat Richter Transformation

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to determine if the drug combination of acalabrutinib, durvalumab, and venetoclax will work to treat Richter’s transformation, and what doses of these drugs are safe for people to take. We also want to learn about the side effects of this combination. All study subjects will receive acalabrutinib, durvalumab, and venetoclax. Acalabrutinib is FDA approved for treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma. Durvalumab is FDA approved for treatment in lung cancers including  non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer. Venetoclax is FDA approved for the treatment of CLL and SLL. The drug combination of acalabrutinib, durvalumab, and venetoclax is experimental and isn’t approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, the FDA has allowed the use of this drug in this research study.
