1. Database of All Patients with Peritoneal Surface Malignancies Treated at Mayo Clinic

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to:

   1. Establish a prospective database of all patients with peritoneal surface malignancies seen by Dr. Travis Grotz at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester.
   2. Design and implement quality improvement projects utilizing this database
   3. Design and implement outcomes research using this prospective database
   4. Design and implement quality of life studies using this prospective database

2. Thoracotomy Versus Thoracoscopic Management Of Pulmonary Metastases In Patients With Osteosarcoma

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopic resection for thoracic event-free survival (tEFS) in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma.

   Furthermore, to determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopy for event free survival (EFS), for overall survival (OS), and if thoracoscopy is superior to open surgical resection for postoperative pain interference in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma.

3. A Phase 1/​2 Study Of STP938 For Adult Subjects With Relapsed/​Refractory B-Cell And T-Cell Lymphomas

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of STP938 as a single agent in adult subjects with R/R B-cell and T-cell lymphomas.

4. A Study Of The Possible Use Of A New Imaging Method With Glioma Tumors

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to see if Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) a recently developed imaging technique can be used to characterize and help stage glioma tumors and evaluate response to therapy.

5. Combination Therapy Of Acalabrutinib, Venetoclax And Durvalumab To Treat Richter Transformation

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine if the drug combination of acalabrutinib, durvalumab, and venetoclax will work to treat Richter’s transformation, and what doses of these drugs are safe for people to take. We also want to learn about the side effects of this combination. All study subjects will receive acalabrutinib, durvalumab, and venetoclax. Acalabrutinib is FDA approved for treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma. Durvalumab is FDA approved for treatment in lung cancers including  non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer. Venetoclax is FDA approved for the treatment of CLL and SLL. The drug combination of acalabrutinib, durvalumab, and venetoclax is experimental and isn’t approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, the FDA has allowed the use of this drug in this research study.

6. Low-grade UTUC Treated With Nadofaragene Firadenovec Administered To Renal Pelvis

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

   The primary purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety \& tolerability of Nadofaragene Firadenovec in subjects with LG-UTUC. To help with this evaluation, a safety lead-in period will be conducted for the first 6 subjects. Complete response is at 3 or 6 months defined as absence of any UTUC in the renal pelvis.

7. Proton Therapy for Partial Breast Irradiation in Early Stage Breast Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to determine freedom from ipsilateral breast recurrence occurrences in patients receiving partial breast proton radiation therapy limited to the region of the tumor at 3 years.

8. A Study to Establish a Living Breast Organoid Biobank for Translational Research

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

   Researchers at Mayo Clinic are developing a Biobank of adult stem cell-rich breast organoids, a new research resource to facilitate normal and cancer stem cell research. Subjects in the Biobank will provide samples of excess breast tissue, complete a health questionnaire, and allow access to medical records now and in the future. The Biobank serves as a library for researchers; instead of having to look for volunteers for each new project, researchers can use samples from the Biobank as well as share information already collected.

9. Highly Selective CDK7 Inhibitor Q901 In Selected Advanced Solid Tumors

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

   The purpose of part one of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and safety profile of Q901 monotherapy when administered via intravenous (IV) infusion once-weekly (QW) for 4 weeks and once every 2 weeks (Q2W) thereafter. Also, to establish for future clinical development the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Q901 monotherapy when administered via IV infusion QW for 4 weeks and Q2W thereafter. 

   The purpose of part two of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability and evidence of anticancer activity of Q901 as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab. In Part 2 Cohort 1, an expansion phase at the established RP2D will be undertaken in participants with selected advanced solid tumors. In Part 2 Cohort 2, a safety run in and expansion phase will be undertaken with Q901 at the RP2D administered in combination with pembrolizumab (400 mg Q6W) in participants with advanced solid tumors.

10. Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers For Brain Tumors

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to help generate a repository of Cerebrospinal  Fluid (CSF) samples relevant to neuro-oncology research that may facilitate the identification of biomarkers that are predictive of disease burden, therapeutic susceptibility or response to therapy. This protocol will also provide a vehicle for CSF access for patients or providers wishing to generate or evaluate individualized biomarkers as part of other research or individualized therapy protocols.
