1. A2B101-101: Obtaining Solid Tumor Tissue From Subjects Having Surgical Resection For Certain Tumor Types And Leukapheresis For CAR T-cell Therapy Manufacturing

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

   The primary objectives for this study are: 

   • The percentage of subjects who can enroll on an A2 CAR T-cell therapy study within approximately 6 months of documentation of HLA-A LOH status

   • The percentage of subjects who can enroll on an A2 CAR T-cell therapy study within approximately 12 months of documentation of HLA-A LOH status

   • The percentage of subjects who can enroll on an A2 CAR T-cell therapy study within approximately 18 months of documentation of HLA-A LOH status

   • The percentage of subjects who can enroll on an A2 CAR T-cell therapy study within approximately 24 months of HLA-A LOH status

   • Percentage of screened subjects experiencing loss of heterozygosity of HLA-A*02.

2. A Study To Evaluate Acalabrutinib With Or Without Obinutuzumab To Treat Early-Stage Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma Patients

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

   This phase II trials studies how well acalabrutinib with or without obinutuzumab works in treating participants with early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Acalabrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as obinutuzumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether giving acalabrutinib with or without obinutuzumab will work better in treating participants with early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.

3. Primary Tumor Research And Outcome Network (PTRON) Registry

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this registry is to collect clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic data specific for primary spinal column tumor patients, and evaluate it to understand the predictive factors which influence survival, local recurrence, adverse events, perioperative morbidity, and health related quality of life.

4. Effect of Agent Orange Exposure on Endocrine Tumor Aggressiveness

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

   The intent is to collect relevant clinical data on patients exposed to Agent Orange plus assessment of the tissue for genetic mutations known to be associated with growth of thyroid cancer and pituitary tumors and report our findings as a descriptive case series.

5. Serum Derived From Patient Donors With Paraneoplastic Pemphigus (PNP) to Be Used as a Positive Control for PNP Test

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to obtain serum from patients with certain rare immunobullous diseases (e.g., paraneoplastic pemphigus, laminin-332 pemphigoid) to replenish a source of positive control for our clinical testing (e.g., Mayo test codes PNPAB, RSBV).  

   • To verify the performance characteristics of anti-Paraneoplastic Pemphigus (PNP) serum and validate its use as a positive control in PNP test.  

   • Serum from patients with PNP will be used for a positive control for the PNP test upon successful validation. 

   Background:  

   For various rare immunobullous diseases, detection of a circulating autoantibody is necessary for accurate diagnosis. As a CLIA requirement, every clinical test run requires positive and negative controls for quality control.  Currently, we use either archived sera or commercially available sera from patients with known relevant immunobullous diseases as a structural integrity positive control of rat bladder or transfected cells, which are the substrates for these indirect immunofluorescence tests.  

   While we have no difficulty locating negative control sera, it is challenging to source positive control sera, due to the rarity of these diseases. Specifically, commercial positive control serum is no longer available for purchase and only limited archived material is available. 

6. Hematology Electronic Consultations (e-Consults) the Mayo Clinic Experience

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate hematology e-consults to determine their specific use, time to completion, advantages and disadvantages, perceptions from primary care physicians and specialists and economic impact. 

7. 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.

8. 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.

9. Rituximab, Romidepsin, and Lenalidomide in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of romidepsin and lenalidomide when combined with rituximab and to see how well this combination works in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned (recurrent) or did not respond to treatment (refractory). Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Romidepsin and lenalidomide may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving rituximab together with romidepsin and lenalidomide may be a better treatment for B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

10. A Study to Evaluate Colorectal Polyps with Dietary Inflammation During Colonoscopy

    Jacksonville, Fla.

    Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in both men and women in the United States (1). Colorectal cancer arises from colonic polyps. The major types of polyps associated with colorectal cancer development are adenomatous (tubular which is most common and other types are villous and tubulovillous) and serrated (hyperplastic, sessile or traditional) polyps with varying degrees of dysplasia (2). Hyperplastic polyps are common but they have a low malignancy potential (3). There is evidence that colonic inflammation plays a major role in colon polyp and colorectal cancer development. For example, inflammatory bowel disease is a major predisposing factor for colorectal cancer occurrence, implicating inflammation in the development of colorectal cancer (4). In addition,  obesity, a chronic inflammatory state, is associated with increased colorectal cancer risk (5). However, the use of anti-inflammatory agents in the prevention of colorectal cancer is controversial, although there is some suggestion that its use may lower colorectal cancer risk (6,7). Diet may affect cytokine levels and inflammation (8). Diet rich in trans-fat and sugar has been shown to increase pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNFα (9, 10) and the Mediterranean Diet has been shown to decrease inflammatory cytokines (11) and decrease the risk of colon cancer in an UK study (12). Recently, the EDII was developed and validated to assess inflammatory potential of diet based on the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) (13).  Here we propose to investigate the association between diet-derived inflammation, as measured by the EDII, risk of colon polyps during screening colonoscopy and colorectal cancer development.
