1. A Study of the Gene Make-up of Heart Tumors

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to help identify the biology of heart tumors and understand how and why they form.

2. Human Blood and Tissues Repository for Neuroscience Research

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to collect adult human blood, cerebrospinal fluid, brain, and spine tissues/fluids at time of surgery in order to conduct future studies of the cellular mechanisms of tissue invasion utilized by brain and spine tumors of the central nervous system (CNS).

3. Contrast-Enhanced MR Angiography Method in Comparison to Current Methods in Healthy Volunteers

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to look at a contrast-enhanced MR angiography method in comparison to current methods. The contrast-enhanced method can generate images with more spatial detail and can be used to view a much larger region of the patient’s body than is presently possible.

4. Fertility Outcomes in Lymphoma Patients

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The objectives of this study are to analyze impact of radiation on fertility, to correlate the clinical outcome of fertility after chemotherapy and or radiation, and to evaluate the different modalities and cost/benefit of fertility preservation in lymphoma patients

   Lymphoma is a diversified disease with outcomes differing upon the types and subtypes of lymphoma as well as treatment modalities used. Fertility outcomes in patients treated with chemotherapy and/or radiation could vary and largely unknown.

5. A Study of the Drugs Selumetinib Versus Carboplatin/Vincristine in Patients With Neurofibromatosis and Low-Grade Glioma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The pupose of this study is to evaluate whether or not selumetinib works just as well as the standard treatment with carboplatine/vincristine (CV) for subjects with NF1-associated low grade glioma (LGG), and to see if selumetinib is better than CV in improving vision in subjects with LGG of the optic pathway (vision nerves). Selumetinib is a drug that works by blocking some enzymes that low grade glioma tumor cells need for their growth. This results in killing tumor cells. Drugs used as chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and vincristine, 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. It is not yet known whether selumetinib works better in treating patients with NF1-associated low-grade glioma compared to standard therapy with carboplatin and vincristine.

6. A Registry for the Collection and Maintenance of Biological Specimens for Breast Cancer Research

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this registry is to collect and maintain samples of breast tissue from women and men undergoing surgery for a breast related concern at Mayo Clinic Rochester,  to create a biospecimen resource for the study of benign and cancerous breast conditions.

7. Bladder Bank (a Prospective Banking Study)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to establish samples (blood and urine) to support the development of non-invasive tests for early detection of bladder cancer 

8. A Study to Evaluate Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone, with or without Daratumumab, in Treating High-Risk Smoldering Myeloma Patients

   Rochester, Minn., Albert Lea, Minn., Eau Claire, Wis.

   The purpose of this study is to show how well lenalidomide and dexamethasone work with or without daratumumab in treating patients with high-risk smoldering myeloma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as lenalidomide and dexamethasone, 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. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as daratumumab, may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving lenalidomide and dexamethasone with daratumumab may work better in treating patients with smoldering myeloma.

9. A Study of CA-4948 in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma

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

   This is a multi-center, open-label trial of orally administered CA-4948 monotherapy in adult patients with Relapsed or Refractory NHL. The trial will be conducted in 2 parts: an initial Dose Escalation Phase (Part A) of CA-4948 in patients with Relapsed or Refractory Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, (RR NHL) and a Dose Expansion Phase (Part B) of CA-4948 in patients with RR NHL with and without myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MYD88) mutations. During Part B, patients will be enrolled regardless of MYD88 mutation status.

10. Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Patients With Newly Diagnosed Very Low-Risk and Low Risk Fusion Negative Rhabdomyosarcoma

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to maintain excellent outcomes in patients with very low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (VLR-RMS) while decreasing the burden of therapy using treatment with 24 weeks of vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) and examines the use of centralized molecular risk stratification in the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma.

    Additionally, to find out how well patients with low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (LR-RMS) respond to standard chemotherapy when patients with VLR-RMS and patients who have rhabdomyosarcoma with DNA mutations get separate treatment. Finally, this study examines the effect of therapy intensification in patients who have RMS cancer with DNA mutations to see if their outcomes can be improved.
