Predicting Immunotherapy Response in Metastatic Kidney Cancer Rochester, Minn. Immunotherapy has revolutionized the therapeutic landscape for patients with metastatic RCC and response rates are higher than previously observed with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Despite this, there is a growing need for molecular markers that can help identify patients who will benefit from immunotherapy, especially in the landscape of multiple available regimens, potential toxicities and financial burden. In this study, we propose to use blood biopsies to study tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (tdEVs) to assess disease burden, monitor response to therapy, and to predict earlier disease progression. In addition to tdEVs, these samples will also be analyzed for other biomarkers (circulating immune cells) to assess if they can be used to inform on tumor-immune cell interactions in real-time and potentially identify responders to immunotherapy. Monoclonal Proteins by Blood Spot and Saliva Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and develop procedures for detecting monoclonal proteins via finger pick blood spots and saliva. Data will be compared to results of serum data collected for patient care during the same time. The test will be evaluated qualitatively against venipunctured data tested by Mass Fix. A Study of Prostate Cancer Care and Survivorship Among Sub-Saharan African Immigrant Impacted by Social Determinants of Migrant Health Factors Rochester, Minn. The primary objective of this study is to employ the social determinant of migrant health framework (International Organization for Migration, n.d.) to examine the impact of immigration on the health-seeking behaviors of Sub-Saharan African Immigrant (SSAI) including informed-decision making, psychosocial effects and coping mechanisms. A Study to Investigate LYL797 in Adults With Solid Tumors Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of LYL797, a ROR1-targeted CAR T-cell therapy, in patients with ROR1+ relapsed or refractory triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The first part of the study will determine the safe dose for the next part of the study, and will enroll TNBC patients only. The second part of the study will test that dose in additional TNBC patients and NSCLC patients. A Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of CFT7455 in Relapsed/Refractory Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma or Multiple Myeloma Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of CFT7455 administered orally in subjects with Relapsed/Refractory (r/r) Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) or Multiple Myeloma (MM) administered once a day (QD) as a single agent and in combination with dexamethasone. A Study of Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) in Patients With Hematologic Malignancies Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of APG-2575 as well as dose escalation and dose expansion stages. A Study of Subcutaneous Nivolumab + Relatlimab FDC in Previously Untreated Metastatic or Unresectable Melanoma Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate pharmacokinetic non-inferiority for nivolumab + relatlimab FDC SC (fixed-dose combination for subcutaneous administration) formulation versus nivolumab + relatlimab FDC IV formulation. Testing Lutetium Lu 177 Dotatate in Patients With Somatostatin Receptor Positive Advanced Bronchial Neuroendocrine Tumors Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this trial is to study the effect of lutetium Lu 177 dotatate compared to the usual treatment (everolimus) in treating patients with somatostatin receptor positive bronchial neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). Radioactive drugs, such as lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and may reduce harm to normal cells. Lutetium Lu 177 dotatate may be more effective than everolimus in shrinking or stabilizing advanced bronchial neuroendocrine tumors. A Study to Evaluate Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy to Treat Patients with Pancreatic Cancer and Peritoneal Metastasis Rochester, Minn. The primary purpose of this study is to assess short-term morbidity and disease-free survival outcomes for patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma with limited low volume peritoneal metastasis or positive peritoneal cytology undergoing hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in Treating Patients With Esophageal and Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma Undergoing Surgery Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to anayze the usefulness of treatment with nivolumab and ipilimumab in addition to standard of care chemotherapy and radiation therapy in patients with esophageal and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who are undergoing surgery. Immunotherapy with antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may remove the brake on the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy may reduce the tumor size and the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed during surgery. A combined treatment with nivolumab and ipilimumab, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy might be more effective in patients with esophageal and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who are undergoing surgery.

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.
