1. Chemotherapy Alone or Chemotherapy Plus Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients with Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer Undergoing Surgery

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer involves chemotherapy and radiation, known as 5FUCMT, (the chemotherapy drugs 5-fluorouracil/capecitabine and radiation therapy) prior to surgery. Although radiation therapy to the pelvis has been a standard and important part of treatment for rectal cancer and has been shown to decrease the risk of the cancer coming back in the same area in the pelvis, some patients experience undesirable side effects from the radiation and there have been important advances in chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation which may be of benefit. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, both good and bad, of the standard treatment of chemotherapy and radiation to chemotherapy using a combination regimen known as FOLFOX, (the drugs 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), oxaliplatin and leucovorin) and selective use of the standard treatment, depending on response to the FOLFOX. The drugs in the FOLFOX regimen are all FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved and have been used routinely to treat patients with advanced colorectal cancer.

2. A Study to Evaluate Voice-enabled Artificial Intelligence to Diagnosis Hepatic Encephalopathy

   Rochester, Minn.

   early detection of hepatic encephalopathy

3. Biobank for Cholestatic Liver Diseases

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study is a biobank of specimens and clinical data for use in current and future research to better understand the cholestatic liver diseases primary biliary cirrhosis/cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC).

4. Cystic Kidney and Liver Disease Biobank

   Rochester, Minn.

    

   This research study is being done to create a collection of biospecimens (blood, urine, cyst fluid, bile, kidney or liver tissue, etc.) that can be used to facilitate the conduction of research on polycystic kidney and/or liver disease.

5. Nitrous Oxide For Endoscopic Ablation of Refractory Barrett's Esophagus

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this multicenter, prospective, single arm, non-randomized clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the C2 CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System (CbFAS) for the treatment of persistent dysplasia or intestinal metaplasia (IM) in the tubular esophagus after 3 or more radiofrequency ablations (RFA) for dysplastic BE, or <50% eradication of Barrett's Esophagus (BE) after 2 RFA treatments.

6. A Study to Establish an Obesity-Related Phenotype Registry

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to create a registry of obese patients who have been phenotyped to understand the heterogeneity of obesity.

7. 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.

    

    

8. A Study to Evaluate the Response of Dietary Therapy in Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to investigate the response rate of dietary therapy in patients with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) and determine rates of long-term compliance with the food elimination diets (SFED, FFED, step-up), and also to identify patient, clinical, and endoscopic factors that may be associated with increased rates of success in patients undergoing dietary therapy in EoE.

9. A Study to Evaluate the Effects of Ondansetron on Gastrointestinal Sensorimotor Dysfunctions in Diabetes Mellitus and Dyspepsia

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to understand why patients with indigestion, with or without diabetes, have gastrointestinal symptoms and, in particular, to understand where the symptoms are related to increased sensitivity to nutrients.Subsequently, look at the effects of Ondansetron on these patients' symptoms.

10. SULF1 and SULF2 Role in Cholangiocarcinoma

    Rochester, Minn.

    Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) has key similarities with HCC, therefore, we hypothesize that Sulf1 and Sulf2 may also play roles in promotion of CCA progression.
