1. 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.

2. Celiac Disease Registry

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to develop a resource (bank) of biospecimens (blood, tissue, stool) and data collected from individuals with known or suspected gluten enteropathy, including celiac disease (CD) and dermatitis herpetiformis (DH).  Other enteropathies will also be included: collagenous sprue, idiopathic sprue, lymphocytic enterocolitis, idiopathic enteropathies, collagenous gastritis, Whipple’s disease, and other miscellaneous inflammatory disorders of the small intestine. This resource will be invaluable in answering the important questions outlined above and other future unanswered questions.   

3. Improving the Quality of Care for Adults with Inflammatory Bowel Disease

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the impact of an Adult Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) learning health system approach that enables patients and their care teams to coproduce optimal health and high value care.

4. Interviews About Social Determinants of Health in Southeast Asian Americans to Identify Liver Cancer Disparities

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study is intended to understand the experiences and barriers to cancer care for individuals diagnosed with liver or any other type of cancer. Individual interviews will be conducted. 

5. Phase II Study of NGC-Triple Regimen in Potentially Resectable Pancreatic Cancer Patients

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   This is a phase II multi-center study of nab-paclitaxel, gemcitabine and cisplatin (NGC triple regimen) as preoperative therapy in potentially resectable pancreatic cancer patients. DISEASE STATE - Potentially operable or borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma as assessed by standard CT criteria and histologically confirmed. - Staging by pancreatic protocol, helical abdominal computed tomography (with contrast) or MRI (with contrast) required (endoscopic ultrasound is not required). - No evidence of metastatic disease. Lymphadenopathy (defined as nodes measuring >1 cm in short axis) outside the surgical basin (i.e., para-aortic, peri-caval, celiac axis, or distant nodes) is considered M1 (unless nodes are biopsied and are negative, then enrollment can be considered after review with the study PI). Potentially Resectable Pancreatic Cancer - No involvement of the celiac artery, common hepatic artery, and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and, if present, replaced right hepatic artery. - No involvement or <180° interface between tumor and vessel wall of the portal vein and/or superior mesenteric vein (SMV-PV) and patent portal vein/splenic vein confluence. - For tumors of the body and tail of the pancreas, involvement of the splenic artery and vein of any degree is considered resectable disease. Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer - Tumor-vessel interface ≥180° of vessel wall circumference, and/or reconstructible occlusion of the SMV-PV. - Tumor-vessel interface <180° of the circumference of the SMA. - Tumor-vessel interface <180° of the circumference of the celiac artery. - Reconstructible short-segment interface of any degree between tumor and hepatic artery.

6. Evaluation of Outcomes in Metastatic Gastric and Esophageal Carcinoma in Relation to Immunotherapy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is:

   • To assess the efficacy of treatment with checkpoint inhibitors (Pembrolizumab or Nivolumab) in metastatic gastric and esophageal carcinoma through retrospective chart review.
   • To explore if response to checkpoint inhibitors is dependent on biomarkers on tumor tissue.

7. A Study to Assess Outcome of Hospitalization for Cirrhosis Patients

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

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcome of hospitalization related to the presence of cirrhosis. We are participating in optional blood, saliva, urine, ascitic fluid and stool collection. 

    

    

8. Prospective Tissue Collection of Hepatic Epithelia:

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this research study is to improve our understanding of normal liver and gallbladder function and liver and gallbladder diseases including PBC, PSC, ADPKD (Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease), and ARPKD (Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease) and gallbladder inflammation (cholecystitis).

    

    

9. A Study of Measurable Ultrasound Imaging Biomarkers of Crohn's Disease

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a new multi-parameter ultrasound technology for evaluation of Crohn’s disease.

10. A Study of a New Molecular Approach to Blood DNA Screening for Cancer

    Rochester, Minn.

    The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the distribution of marker levels determined by this multi-marker, multi-compartment blood DNA test approach across persons without known cancer or precancer.
