Below are current clinical trials.

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

1. Colorectal Cancer Screening in Black and Underserved Communities in the Phoenix Metro Area

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The aims of this study are to increase the number of Black consultants at MCA, make a meaningful impact on interactions among staff, leadership, and patients, and increase the number of Black staff in leadership roles beyond Diversity and Inclusion efforts.

2. Breath Condensate of Lung Cancer Patients and Healthy Controls to Measure RNA Species in Exhaled Breath Condensate

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to develop tests for early detection of lung cancer or lung fibrosis based on multiomics analyses of patients’ breath condensates.  

3. A Study to Evaluate Individualized Prehabilitation for People Undergoing Neo-Adjuvant Radiotherapy and Lower Limb Soft-Tissue Sarcoma Surgery

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The primary objectives of this study are to determine if a tailored prehabilitation program focusing on functional optimization of spared limb tissue in two groups of patients with localized, lower extremity soft tissue sarcoma, one with prehabilitation and one with equal attention and informational support, improves functional outcome as measure by the Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS), to identify the measures and metrics most responsive to the intervention using the (TESS), Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT)[5], wearable Heel2Toe sensor technology and daily step count, and to estimate recruitment, retention, adherence, and acceptability rates.

4. A Study to Compare Standard Chemotherapy to Therapy With CPX-351 and/or Gilteritinib to To Treat Newly-diagnosed AML with or without FLT3 Mutations

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare standard chemotherapy to therapy with CPX-351 and/or gilteritinib for patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia with or without FLT3 mutations. 

5. Personalized Neoantigen Peptide-Based Vaccine in Combination With Pembrolizumab for the Treatment of Advanced Solid Tumors, The PNeoVCA Study

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of personalized neoantigen peptide administered in combination with pembrolizumab to patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients' tumors will be sequenced during a pre-registration component or will have had successful sequencing pre-study. A personalized neoantigen peptide vaccine containing up to 20 unique peptides will be manufactured for each qualifying patient based on the results.

6. A Study to Validate DNA Methylation Markers for Universal and Site-specific Guided Cancer Detection

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to validate candidate universal and site-specific methylated DNA markers (MDMs) in DNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded primary tumor and control specimens.

7. Study of CG0070 Given in Patients With Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer ,Unresponsive to Bacillus-Calmette-Guerin

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

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the activity of intravesical (IVE) administration of Cretostimogene Grenadenorepvec in patients with tissue pathology confirmed non-muscule invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who have Bacillus-Calmette-Guerin (BCG) unresponsive disease, with either carcinoma in situ with or without Ta/T1 disease.

8. Needle-based Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy Guided For Lung Cancer Diagnosis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to compare per pass diagnostic yield of different numbers of sequential needle passes (ROSE) and the procedure duration needed to obtain a contributive TBNA sample with ROBOTIC-guided TBNA to that of ROBOTIC-guided nCLE in PPNs.

    

    

9. First in Human Study of TORL-1-23 in Participants With Advanced Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of tis first-in-human study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of TORL-1-23 in patients with advanced cancer.

10. A Study to Evaluate Combination Therapy to Treat Newly-diagnosed Diffuse Anaplastic Wilms Tumors and Relapsed Favorable Histology Wilms Tumors A Study of Combination Chemotherapy for Patients With Newly Diagnosed DAWT and Relapsed FHWT

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage II-IV diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumors (DAWT) or favorable histology Wilms tumors (FHWT) that have come back (relapsed). Drugs used in chemotherapy regimens such as UH-3 (vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, carboplatin, etoposide, and irinotecan) and ICE/Cyclo/Topo (ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, and topotecan) 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.

    This trial may help doctors find out what effects, good and/or bad, regimen UH-3 has on patients with newly diagnosed DAWT and standard risk relapsed FHWT (those treated with only 2 drugs for the initial WT) and regimen ICE/Cyclo/Topo has on patients with high and very high risk relapsed FHWT (those treated with 3 or more drugs for the initial WT).
