1. Novel SEQUEnced Immunotherapy With Anti-angiogenesis And Chemotherapy In Advanced GastroesophageaL Adenocarcinoma (SEQUEL)

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a randomized Phase 2 study of novel SEQUEnced immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) with anti-angiogenesis and chemotherapy in advanced gastric and gastroesophageaL junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma (SEQUEL) designed to to evaluate the best overall response rate (BORR) of combined ramucirumab (RAM) plus paclitaxel (+/- pembrolizumab) following induction pembrolizumab (PEM) in patients with advanced gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma.

2. Studying The Effect Of Levocarnitine In Protecting The Liver From Chemotherapy For Leukemia Or Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare  the effect of adding levocarnitine to standard chemotherapy vs. standard chemotherapy alone in protecting the liver in patients with leukemia or lymphoma. 

3. Minnesota Spinal Cord Injury Data Network

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a study to generate feasibilty data regarding the collection of health and psychosocial outcomes after acquired spinal cord injury (SCI)

4. 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.

5. A Study to Collect Ovarian Tissue from Girls Undergoing Fertility-preserving Cryopreservation

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to study the handling of ovarian tissue, cryopreservation technology, and oocyte maturation for female pediatric cancer patients and other female patients whose future fertility will be affected due to a disease or treatment.

6. Impact Of Surgical Removal Or Reduction Procedures On Markers Of Immune Function In Adult Patients With Renal And Bladder Tumors And Pediatric Patients With Genitourinary Tumors

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to find out more about certain markers of immune suppression in people with kidney tumors (whether the tumors are benign or cancer). Also want to find out if kidney tumor treatment leads to an improvement in these immune markers.

7. Pre-myeloid Cancer And Bone Marrow Failure Clinic Study

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

   The purpose of this study is to test a new technology called Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) that may help identify this risk associated with precursor conditions and the likelihood that they will change into overt blood and bone marrow cancers. NGS is a procedure that looks at relevant cancer associated genes and what they do.

8. A Study Of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Biomarker Monitoring Progression And Treatment Response Of Locally-advanced Unresectable And Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Therapies

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to determine if LIF (Leukemia Inhibitory Factor) level is positively correlated with disease progression and CA19-9 level in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients and is a reliable biomarker of response.

9. Accelerated Vs Standard BEP Chemotherapy For Patients With Intermediate And Poor-risk Metastatic Germ Cell Tumours

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine whether accelerated BEP chemotherapy is more effective than standard BEP chemotherapy in males with intermediate and poor-risk metastatic germ cell tumours.

10. A Registry For Children Treated With Proton Radiation Therapy

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of the Pediatric Proton Consortium Registry (PPCR) is to enroll children who have been treated with proton radiation in the United States in order to describe the population that currently receives protons and better evaluate its benefits over other therapies. The data collected from this study will help facilitate research on proton beam radiation therapy and allow for collaborative research. The PPCR will collect demographic and clinical data which many centers that deliver proton radiation therapy already collect in routine operations.
