1. Mayo Clinic Cancer Center Neuro-Oncology Program Registry and Biobank for the Study of Nervous System Tumors

   Rochester, Minn.

   Biospecimen banks are a modern attempt to centralize collections of human blood and tissue samples along with health information and personal history. The Neuro-Oncology Program Registry and Biobank will be used for research purposes to increase our understanding of nervous system tumors.

2. Minimally Invasive Molecular Approaches for the Diagnosis of Barrett's Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma

   Mankato, Minn., Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., Eau Claire, Wis., Austin, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   This study will evaluate if the sponge capsule device can accurately detect the presence of Barrett's Esophagus and prevalent dysplasia/adenocarcinoma detection, in a screening population, with and without chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease.

3. Tumor Molecular Analysis

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

   The purpose of this study is to develop preclinical models that include cell lines and patient derived xenografts (PDX) that include molecular characterization and testing novel therapies in these preclinical models. Molecular characterization may include short tandem DNA repeat; STR) and oncogenic/tumor suppressor gene mutation analyses to assure that the derived models have not been cross contaminated during the development process with other ongoing lines. Tissue microarray and immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis will also be performed on cell lines, PDX and patient tissues to identify potential molecular targets for therapy.

   For patients who consented, patient clinical therapy response data may be correlated with preclinical response data in cell lines and PDX models. 

4. A Study to Evaluate the Impact of Non-invasive Tests for Bladder Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   Levels of bladder cancer-derived extracellular vesicles become undetectable after radical cystectomy in patients with localized bladder cancer. This study hopes to determine the levels of bladder cancer-derived extracellular vesicles pre- and post-RC.

5. PTT-936, an Alpha Kinase 1 (ALPK1) Activator, Alone or in Combination with Anti-PD-1/L1 in Patients with Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

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

   The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a pharmacologically active dose (PAD) range of PTT-936, which may include identification of the MTD, administered as a single agent in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic solid tumors who have progressed after exhaustion of standard of care (SOC) or a SOC is not available.

6. Study of Treating Patients with Vestibular Schwannoma with Aspirin

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the administration of aspirin can delay or slow tumor growth and maintain or improve hearing in  patients with vestibular schwannoma (VS).

7. 3D Surface Scanning

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to examine the potential for using a 3D scan of a patient’s treatment surface as a surrogate for a conventional CT simulation in electron radiation therapy.

    

8. A Study to Evaluate the Incidence and Psychological Impact of Vaginal Cuff Dehiscence After Different Types of Hysterectomy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of cuff dehiscence in patients who have undergone total robotic laparoscopic hysterectomy vs. total vaginal hysterectomy, to identify risk factors for cuff dehiscence, and to study the impact of cuff dehiscence on a patient’s psychological well-being.

9. A Study of the Ability to Predict Lymphedema Development Following Axillary Surgery for Breast Cancer and Its Effects on Patient Survivorship

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to better understand the anatomy of the lymphatic structure and the molecular process that leads to the over production of lymph fluid.  This proposal will begin intense lymphedema screening and identify baseline characteristics potentially predisposing someone to lymphedema, and identify molecular markers that might be altered to prevent lymphedema. 

10. A Study to Evaluate Encorafenib Plus Cetuximab with/without Chemotherapy to Treat Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

    Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether encorafenib plus cetuximab (EC), alone or in combination with chemotherapy, can improve clinical outcomes relative to current standard of care chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated BRAF V600E-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
