1. Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy After Mastectomy in Preventing Recurrence in Patients With Stage IIa-IIIa Breast Cancer

   Mankato, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Eau Claire, Wis., Rochester, Minn., La Crosse, Wis., Albert Lea, Minn.

   This randomized phase III trial studies how well hypofractionated radiation therapy works in preventing recurrence in patients with stage IIa-IIIa cancer who have undergone mastectomy. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells that remain after surgery and have fewer side effects.

2. Study Using Ultrasound to Evaluate High-Frequency Percussive Ventilation Based Proton Therapy Motion Mitigation

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the high frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) technique and demonstrate tolerable and reproducible thoracic immobilization with less than 5 mm residual motion.

3. A Study of Advanced MR Imaging in Sarcoma Patients

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical application of two emerging magnetic resonance (MR) imaging modalities which Mayo Clinic has the technical capability of using, by adding them at the same time that standard imaging is done for patients receiving treatment for Ewing Sarcoma , Rhabdomyosarcoma and soft tissue sarcoma.  

    

    

4. A Study of Electron Beam Intraoperative Radiation Therapy Following Chemoradiation in Patients with Pancreatic Cancer with Vascular Involvement

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to to evaluate the rate of overall survival (OS) at two years in patients with either borderline or locally advanced pancreatic cancer who receive electron beam intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) following chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

5. A Study of Using Proton Beam Therapy Which Spares Mucosal Tissue Following the Removal of Oropharyngeal Tumors

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of lower intensity (mucosal tissue sparing) proton beam therapy after the surgical removal of oropharyngeal tumors in cancer patients who have a favorable level of risk.

6. Randomized Trial of Intensity-Modulated Proton Beam Therapy (IMPT) Versus Intensity-Modulated Photon Therapy (IMRT) for the Treatment of Oropharyngeal Cancer of the Head and Neck

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   The overall goal of this trial is to identify a less toxic approach to the delivery of conformal radiation therapy for patients with cancers of the oropharynx.

7. A Study to Evaluate Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) and Immunophenotyping as Potential Biomarkers in Patients Undergoing Regional Nodal Irradiation for Breast Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to estimate the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)detection rate and mutational load in breast cancer patients with indications for regional nodal irradiation.

8. The Utility of 18F-DOPA-PET in the Treatment of Recurrent High-grade Glioma

   Rochester, Minn.

   This proposal is for a pilot study comparing volumes of 18F-DOPA-PET avidity with contrast enhancement and T2 FLAIR on MRI. We then plan to compare patterns of failure with target volumes, pre-treatment MRI changes and pre-treatment 18F-DOPA-PET.

9. A Study to Evaluate Chemoradiation With or Without Atezolizumab in Treating Patients With Limited Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

   Eau Claire, Wis., La Crosse, Wis., Mankato, Minn., Rochester, Minn., Albert Lea, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well chemotherapy and radiation therapy (chemoradiation) with or without atezolizumab works in treating patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide, cisplatin, and carboplatin, 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving chemoradiation with or without atezolizumab may work better in treating patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer.

10. Standard or Comprehensive Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Early-Stage Breast Cancer Previously Treated With Chemotherapy and Surgery

    La Crosse, Wis., Mankato, Minn., Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Albert Lea, Minn.

    This randomized phase III trial studies standard or comprehensive radiation therapy in treating patients with early-stage breast cancer who have undergone surgery. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x rays to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known whether comprehensive radiation therapy is more effective than standard radiation therapy in treating patients with breast cancer.
