Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.564 studies in Oncology (Medical) (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. Female Patients and Female Partners of Patients With Confirmed HPV Associated Oropharyngeal Carcinoma (Pap-Op): Prospective Assessment of HPV Associated Anogenital Pathology Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to determine the incidence of anogenital infection with high-risk HPV serotypes and HPV-associated anogenital lesions in female patients with newly diagnosed HPV(+)OPSCC and female partners of patients with HPV(+)OPSCC, and compare this with retrospective review of exams and paps obtained during routine well woman checks in Rochester MN. A Study to Collect Thoracic Specimens to Develop a Thoracic Specimen Registry Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The primary objective of this proposal is to develop a Thoracic Specimen Registry at Mayo Clinic. The purpose of the registry will be to support ongoing research in the etiology, early diagnosis, clinical management, and prognosis of lung cancer and other cancers and diseases of the thorax by developing a complete repository of specimens from patients with thoracic disease including but not limited to suspected lung cancer, mediastinal and pleural tumors and from patients at a very high risk of developing other thoracic cancers or other thoracic diseases. 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. A Study of Encorafenib Plus Cetuximab Taken Together With Pembrolizumab Compared to Pembrolizumab Alone in People With Previously Untreated Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of three study medicines (encorafenib, cetuximab, and pembrolizumab) given together for the treatment of colorectal cancer that is metastatic (spread to other parts of the body), has the condition of genetic hypermutability (tendency to mutation) or impaired DNA mismatch repair (MMR), has a certain type of abnormal gene called "BRAF," and has not received prior treatment. All participants in this study will receive pembrolizumab at the study clinic as an intravenous (IV) infusion (given directly into a vein) at the study clinic. In addition, half of the participants will take encorafenib by mouth at home every day and cetuximab by IV infusion at the study clinic. The study team will monitor how each participant is doing with the study treatment during regular visits at the study clinic. E6201 Plus Dabrafenib for the Treatment of Metastatic Melanoma Central Nervous System Metastases (CNS) Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to determine the overall rate of response of brain metastases in subjects with central nervous system (CNS) metastases due to metastatic melanoma with a BRAF V600 mutation who have relapsed or progressed from initial or systemic disease. . 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 ia 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. Viscoelastic Parameters Estimation and Imaging for the Assessment of Axillary Lymph Nodes Rochester, Minn. This study is being done to: • Test an investigational stiffness measurement and imaging method on the lymph node found in the underarm area. • Compare investigational imaging to sonography images. • Compare investigational information to FDA approved US elasticity imaging conducted by SuperSonic Imaging (SSI) machine on the same lymph node in your underarm area. • Compare to FDA approved ultrasound stiffness imaging system (GE Logiq E9) • Compare to ultrasound images using Alpinion clinical ultrasound platform, FDA approved ECUBE 12and a non-FAD approved ECUBE 12R 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. Immune Response to Antigens Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to sequence patient germline and tumor samples, and nominate top neoantigen candidates using an in-house developed bioinformatics pipeline, and to validate the neoantigen candidates by laboratory assays using patient peripheral blood immune cells or serum. 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).

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.
