Below are current clinical trials.

Filter this list of studies by location, status and more.

1. Early Pancreatic Cancer Detection

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The primary purpose of this study is to standardize the collection of demographic, clinical, and imaging data, and biosamples for a large high-risk familial Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarinoma (PDAC) cohort at consortium clinical cancer centers, worldwide.

2. A Study To Collect Thoracic Specimens To Develop A Thoracic Specimen Registry

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

   The primary objective of this proposal is to develop a Thoracic Specimen Registry at Mayo Clinic. The purpose of the registry will be to support ongoing research in the etiology, early diagnosis, clinical management, and prognosis of lung cancer and other cancers and diseases of the thorax by developing a complete repository of specimens from patients with thoracic disease including but not limited to suspected lung cancer, mediastinal and pleural tumors and from patients at a very high risk of developing other thoracic cancers or other thoracic diseases. 

3. Immune Response To Antigens

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to sequence patient germline and tumor samples, and nominate top neoantigen candidates using an in-house developed bioinformatics pipeline, and to validate the neoantigen candidates by laboratory assays using patient peripheral blood immune cells or serum.

4. 3D Ultrasound For The Imaging Of Axillary Lymph Nodes In Patients With Breast Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   The overall goal of this project is to study a new 3D ultrasound imaging technology for evaluation of axillary lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer.

    

5. A Survey of Pheochromocytoma and Paraganglioma Patient Environment

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the association of environmental, geographic factors, as well as presence of comorbidities associated with hypoxia with development of pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGL), location of PPGL, and number of PPGL.

    

6. A Study To Evaluate VSV-hIFNbeta-NIS To Treat Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myleoma, Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Or T-cell Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus carrying the human NIS and IFN beta genes (VSV-hIFNbeta-sodium iodide symporter [NIS]) in treating patients with multiple myeloma, acute myeloid leukemia, or T-cell lymphoma that has come back or does not respond to treatment. A virus, called VSV-hIFNbeta-NIS, which has been changed in a certain way, may be able to kill cancer cells without damaging normal cells.

7. A Study To Evaluate The Feasibility Of Intraoperative Microdialysis (Tissue Sampling) During Neurosurgery For Central Nervous System Malignancies

   Rochester, Minn.

   Intraoperative Microdialysis During Neurosurgery for Central Nervous System Malignancies

8. Validation Of DNA Methylation Markers For Universal And Site-specific Guided Cancer Detection, VANGUARD Study

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study explores the potential value of a new blood test approach for early detection of cancer.

9. A Study To Compare Standard Chemotherapy To Therapy With CPX-351 And/or Gilteritinib To To Treat Newly-diagnosed AML With Or Without FLT3 Mutations

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare standard chemotherapy to therapy with CPX-351 and/or gilteritinib for patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia with or without FLT3 mutations. 

10. Cell, Serum, and Buccal Bank for Patients with Chronic Myeloid Disorders and Acute Leukemia

    Rochester, Minn.

    This study is being done to store blood, buccal (cheek) cells, genetic material including DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid), and bone marrow so that they can be used for laboratory studies that may contribute to finding the causes of disease and factors that may determine disease progression and treatment response.
