1. Study Of Gastric Cancer And Limited Peritoneal Metastasis Using Robotic Cytoreduction And Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess short-term morbidity and disease-free survival outcomes for patients with gastric adenocarcinoma with limited low volume peritoneal metastasis and/or positive peritoneal cytology undergoing robotic cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

2. Undiagnosed Tumor/Undifferentiated Mass Registry

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

   The purpose of this study is to create a research registry to prospectively collect research biospecimens and corresponding clinical data from subjects with an undiagnosed tumor or undifferentiated mass.

3. A Clinical Use Application for the Humanitarian Use Device Exemption Use Protocol of TheraSphere for Treatment of Unresectable Primary or Secondary Liver Neoplasia

   Eau Claire, Wis.

   This protocol allows multiple treatments with TheraSphere® that may be delivered on an outpatient basis. Patients may receive a single dose to a liver lobe or segmental treatment delivered as a sequence of treatments approximately 30-90 days apart. The principal clinician, working with a multidisciplinary team, will develop a specific treatment plan for each patient, based upon the presenting condition of the patient, the vascular anatomy and the desired goal of treatment.

4. 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.

5. Evaluating Highly Flexible (aka AIR) RF Coils for Patients Undergoing MR Imaging for Radiation Therapy Planning

   Rochester, Minn.

   To assess the quality of images obtained with a new RF (AIR) coil when compared to those obtained using FDA approved RF coils of patients undergoing MR imaging for radiation therapy treatment planning.

6. A First-in-human Trial of GEN3017 in Hodgkin Lymphoma and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and anti-tumor activity of GEN3017 as a monotherapy in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) CD30-expressing lymphomas.  GEN3017 will be administered via subcutaneous injections.  All participants will receive active drug; no one will be given placebo.

7. 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.

    

8. Prospective Use Of Philips ISuite For Interventional Procedures

   Rochester, Minn.

   This research study is being done to look at new MRI imaging guidance software, Philips Interventional iSuite software, to see if using will improve the physician's ability to quickly place and guide needle tip position for biopsies and ablations.

9. Establishment Of Preclinical Models From Patients With Gynecological Malignancies

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   Effective treatments for recurrent gynecological cancer are lacking, and there is a need for novel therapeutic options. One of the barriers to improving outcomes in this subgroup of patients is the paucity of tumor models that can mimic patient characteristics to study novel therapies. Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models are considerate the most representative pre-clinical model of human cancer, recapitulating the key characteristics of the original patient tumor. Other preclincal models to test drug effcicacy includes ex vivo 3D culture and 2D culture systems. In this study, we make and test preclinical models of gynecological cancers (ovarian, fallopian tube, peritoneal, uterine, vulvar, cervix, and vaginal) of any histologic subtype using surplus tumor specimens obtained at the time of routine tumor biopsy procedure, or clinically-indicated surgery.

10. Colorectal Cancer Screening In Black And Underserved Communities In The Phoenix Metro Area

    Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

    The aims of this study are to increase the number of Black consultants at MCA, make a meaningful impact on interactions among staff, leadership, and patients, and increase the number of Black staff in leadership roles beyond Diversity and Inclusion efforts.
