1. Tumor Treating Fields For The Treatment Of Leptomeningeal Metastases Of The Spine In Patients With Breast Or Lung Cancer

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   This clinical trial evaluates the safety and feasibility of tumor treating fields (TTF) in the treatment of spinal leptomeningeal disease in patients with breast or lung cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Patients wear the portable Novo TTF-200T device that produces electric fields to target areas on the body to stop the growth of tumor cells. The information from this study will help researchers develop a better treatment for leptomeningeal metastases in the future.

2. A Study To Evaluate Oncologic Outcomes And Quality Of Life In Sinonasal Cancer Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a multi-site study with several other leading centers studying sinonasal cancers. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the treatment and significant morbidity associated with sinonasal cancer and identify the impact this disease has on quality of life. In addition, several additional endpoints will focus on survival and optimal treatment strategies. Additional components will also included genomic and molecular analysis of tumor tissue as we search for novel targets for therapy.

    

    

3. Image-based Mapping of Brain Tumors

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to combine MRI images with histologic and genetic analysis of cancer (from blood and tissue samples) to improve the overall accuracy of diagnosis and effectiveness of cancer treatment.

    

4. Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Golcadomide Plus R-CHOP vs Placebo Plus RCHOP in Participants with Previously Untreated High-risk Large B-cell Lymphoma

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

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of golcadomide plus R-CHOP vs placebo-R-CHOP in participants with untreated high-risk large B-cell lymphoma with respect to PFS as assessed by the investigator.

5. Actinium Therapy For Late-stage Aggressive Sarcomas

   Rochester, Minn.

   The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety of drug \[Ac225\]RTX-2358 and the diagnostic imaging agent \[Cu64\]LNTH-1363S. Additionally Ratio Therapeutics will learn if \[Ac225\]RTX-2358 drug is effective in treating advanced sarcoma.
   
   The main questions the study aims to answer in Phase/Part 1 of the trial are:
   
   * Is \[Ac225\]RTX-2358 tolerable or does it cause toxicities (medical problems) in patients.
   * What is the most tolerable dose of \[Ac225\]RTX-2358
   * Does the treatment show effectiveness on advanced sarcoma
   
   Participants will:
   
   * Take drug \[Ac225\]RTX-2358 once every 8 weeks (4 cycle target; 6 cycle maximum) over a period of 12 months
   * Visit the clinic three times for the first week of cycle one, then once a week for the remaining 7 weeks of cycle 1 for check-ups and tests.
   * For cycles 2-6: patient will visit the clinic once every 2 weeks for checkups and tests
   * Remain in long term follow-up for a period of four additional years

6. A Study of Navicixizumab Monotherapy or in Combination in Patients With Select Advanced Solid Tumors

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

   The purpose of this study is to investigate the antitumor activity of navicixizumab monotherapy or in combination with paclitaxel or irinotecan in patients with advanced solid tumors including:

   • Cohort A: Colorectal cancer (CRC);
   • Cohort B: Gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer;
   • Cohort C: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC);
   • Cohort D: Platinum-resistant/refractory epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer (ovarian cancer).

7. Testing the Addition of MEDI4736 (Durvalumab) to Chemotherapy Before Surgery for Patients With High-Grade Upper Urinary Tract Cancer

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of adding durvalumab to chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone before surgery in treating patients with upper urinary tract cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as methotrexate, vinblastine, doxorubicin, cisplatin, and gemcitabine 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. Durvalumab in combination with chemotherapy before surgery may enhance the shrinking of the tumor compared to chemotherapy alone.

8. A Registry Called Every Child for Collecting Data and Biology Specimens on Younger Patients with Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this registry called Every Child, is to collect data and biospecimens from multiple body sources for younger patients with cancer over time. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.

9. A Registry Study for the Long-Term Outcomes of Radiation Therapy

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this long term registry study is to collect and analyze information from patients being treated with various forms of radiation therapy to improve the treatment of future patients.

10. Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption (BBBD) for Liquid Biopsy in Subjects With GlioBlastoma Brain Tumors

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of using Exablate Model 4000 Type-2.0/2.1 in adults with Glioblastoma brain tumors to increase temporarily the permeability of the blood brain barrier, allowing increased passage of circulating free DNA (cfDNA) for sampling and analysis.
