1. Social Determinants Of Migrant Health Factors Impacting Prostate Cancer Care And Survivorship Among Sub-Saharan African And Caribbean Immigrant Men

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study is being done to understand what social factors affect health decisions for those who have immigrated from another country by examining how the immigration from Sub-Sahara Africa affects the experiences of participants regarding health-seeking behaviors, care, and treatment of prostate cancer. It also examines similarities and differences among participants based on their region of origin in Africa.

2. Turkey Tail Mushroom For Treating Post-Menopausal Women With HER2-Negative ER-Positive Breast Cancer Undergoing Surgery

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   This phase II trial tests how well turkey tail mushroom (TTM) works in treating post-menopausal women with HER2-negative, estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer undergoing surgery. TTM is a common mushroom. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is used for enhancing function and removing toxins, as well as for cancer, hepatitis, and infections. There is previous evidence of significant tumor shrinkage occurring in the 2-month window between diagnosis and surgery in women who have taken TTM. Giving TTM may be effective in treating post-menopausal women with HER2-negative, ER-positive breast cancer undergoing surgery.

3. Changes in Blood Components in Patients with Ovarian Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assemble a collection of serial plasma biospecimens from women with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer for future research projects to identify changes in levels of various plasma components that occur during the course of ovarian cancer, including changes that occur with debulking surgery, chemotherapy, disease relapse, and subsequent therapy.

4. Randomized Phase II/III Trial of Adjuvant Radiation Therapy with Cisplatin, Docetaxel-Cetuximab, or Cisplatin-Atezolizumab in Pathologic High-Risk Squamous Cell Cancer of the Head and Neck

   Rochester, Minn.

   This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well radiation therapy works when given together with cisplatin compared to docetaxel or cetuximab and docetaxel after surgery in treating patients with stage III-IV squamous cell head and neck cancer. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or transmit tumor killing molecules to them. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy is more effective when given with cisplatin, docetaxel, or cetuximab and docetaxel.

5. A Study of Nab-Paclitaxel as Maintenance Treatment After Cisplatin-Based Chemotherapy and Surgery for Patients with High-Risk Bladder Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate nab-paclitaxel as maintenance therapy after cisplatin-based chemotherapy and surgery in treating patients with high-risk bladder cancer. Maintenance therapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, can help keep cancer from coming back after it has disappeared following initial chemotherapy.

6. First-in-Human Study of XMT-1536 in Cancers Likely to Express NaPi2b

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The primary objective of this study is to determine the confirmed investigator-assessed objective response rate of XMT-1536 (upifitamab rilsodotin) in patients with higher sodium-dependent phosphate transport protein 2b (NaPi2b) expressing platinum-resistant high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), including cancers of ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal origin)

   Note: Mayo Clinic is only participating in the Phase 2 - Cohort 3 (UPLIFT) portion of the study. Mayo Clinic will not be participating in the QTC sub-study.

    

7. Patient Outcomes after Hepatic Artery Infusion Pump Placement

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the short-term outcomes and the quality of life (QOL) after cholecystectomy and hepatic artery infusion pump placement for localized unresectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM).

    

8. A Colon Bank for Early Detection of Colon Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to establish a biobank of samples (blood and stool) to support the development of non-invasive tests for early detection of colon cancer and its precursors.

9. Study of RP-6306 With FOLFIRI in Advanced Solid Tumors

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of RP-6306 with FOLFIRI in patients with eligible advanced solid tumors, determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), identify a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and preferred schedule, and assess preliminary anti-tumor activity.

10. Gastrointestinal-Related Cancers and Diseases

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of applying to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) for the collection of GI-related tissue is to enable comprehensive molecular investigations into the mechanisms underlying gastrointestinal cancers and diseases.
