1. A Study to Compare Treatment With the Drug Selumetinib Alone Versus Selumetinib and Vinblastine in Patients With Recurrent or Progressive Low-Grade Glioma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary objectives of this study are to determine the maximum tolerated dose/recommended phase 2 dose (MTD/RP2D) of selumetinib + vinblastine for children with progressive or recurrent LGGs, and to determine if selumetinib + vinblastine will lead to improved event-free survival (EFS) outcome compared with selumetinib alone for children with progressive or recurrent LGGs.

2. 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.  

3. Thoracotomy Versus Thoracoscopic Management of Pulmonary Metastases in Patients With Osteosarcoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopic resection for thoracic event-free survival (tEFS) in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma.

   Furthermore, to determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopy for event free survival (EFS), for overall survival (OS), and if thoracoscopy is superior to open surgical resection for postoperative pain interference in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma.

4. Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Insomnia

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the frequency of insomnia in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.

5. Optical Fusion Trans-Perineal Grid

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate and assess a new perineal access tool to enable image guided prostate interventions by Clear Guide Medical in collaboration with the Mayo Clinic.

    

6. Financial Difficulty in Patients With Blood Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to analyze the financial difficulties experienced by patients undergoing treatment for multiple myeloma (MM) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). It is composed of a patient survey (n=250), a physician survey (n=100), and a practice survey completed by each site enrolling patients onto this study. A subset of enrolled patients (n=35) will be invited to participate in an optional second telephone interview (Appendix D). This study will measure the prevalence of patient-reported financial difficulty, specific financial burdens and resources currently available to patients and from practices to assist with patient financial navigation.

7. Undiagnosed Tumor/Undifferentiated Mass Registry

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

   The purpose of this study is to create a research registry to prospectively collect research biospecimens and corresponding clinical data from subjects with an undiagnosed tumor or undifferentiated mass.

8. A Study to Evaluate Maximizing Anti-PD-1 Therapy By Monitoring T Cell Responses In Melanoma, Lung and Other Cancer Types

   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.

9. A Study to Explore if it is Possible to Successfully Obtain Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Imaging and Data While Patients Undergo Brain Surgery

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The goal of this study is to investigate the feasibility of successfully obtaining intra-operative OCT imaging and data during standard brain surgery.

10. A Study to Establish a Living Breast Organoid Biobank for Translational Research

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

    Researchers at Mayo Clinic are developing a Biobank of adult stem cell-rich breast organoids, a new research resource to facilitate normal and cancer stem cell research. Subjects in the Biobank will provide samples of excess breast tissue, complete a health questionnaire, and allow access to medical records now and in the future. The Biobank serves as a library for researchers; instead of having to look for volunteers for each new project, researchers can use samples from the Biobank as well as share information already collected.
