Below are current clinical trials.

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

1. A2B101-101: Obtaining Solid Tumor Tissue From Subjects Having Surgical Resection For Certain Tumor Types And Leukapheresis For CAR T-cell Therapy Manufacturing

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

   The primary objectives for this study are: 

   • The percentage of subjects who can enroll on an A2 CAR T-cell therapy study within approximately 6 months of documentation of HLA-A LOH status

   • The percentage of subjects who can enroll on an A2 CAR T-cell therapy study within approximately 12 months of documentation of HLA-A LOH status

   • The percentage of subjects who can enroll on an A2 CAR T-cell therapy study within approximately 18 months of documentation of HLA-A LOH status

   • The percentage of subjects who can enroll on an A2 CAR T-cell therapy study within approximately 24 months of HLA-A LOH status

   • Percentage of screened subjects experiencing loss of heterozygosity of HLA-A*02.

2. Epidemiology Of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

   Rochester, Minn.

   The overall goals of this study are to evaluate similarities and differences of the known genetic and non-genetic epidemiological factors associated with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) risk across African Americans, Hispanics, and Caucasian populations.

3. Study of RP-6306 With FOLFIRI in Advanced Solid Tumors

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of RP-6306 with FOLFIRI in patients with eligible advanced solid tumors, determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), identify a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and preferred schedule, and assess preliminary anti-tumor activity.

4. Investigation Of Ubamatamab Combination Therapy In Adult Participants With Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   This study is researching an experimental drug called ubamatamab, also referred to as "study drug". The study is focused on participants who have advanced ovarian cancer.
   
   The aim of the study is to see how safe, tolerable, and effective the study drug is on its own and in combination with other anti-cancer drugs (bevacizumab, cemiplimab, fianlimab, REGN10597 and a standard chemotherapy drug, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin \[PLD\]), referred to as "combination drugs'.
   
   The study is looking at several other research questions, including:
   
   * What side effects may happen from taking the study drug and its experimental combinations
   * How much study drug and fianlimab is in the blood at different times
   * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects) and its combinations

5. Onvansertib For The Treatment Of Recurrent Or Refractory Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia

   Rochester, Minn.

   This phase I trial evaluates the safety, effectiveness, and best dose of onvansertib for the treatment of patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Onvansertib is a drug that binds to and inhibits an enzyme called PLK1, preventing cancer cell proliferation and causing cell death.

6. 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.

7. MR-Guided Cryoablation Of Prostate Bed Recurrences

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this research is to see if MR-guided cryoablation can effectively treat prostate tumor recurrences.

8. Hematology Electronic Consultations (e-Consults) the Mayo Clinic Experience

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate hematology e-consults to determine their specific use, time to completion, advantages and disadvantages, perceptions from primary care physicians and specialists and economic impact. 

9. Fertility Outcomes in Lymphoma Patients

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The objectives of this study are to analyze impact of radiation on fertility, to correlate the clinical outcome of fertility after chemotherapy and or radiation, and to evaluate the different modalities and cost/benefit of fertility preservation in lymphoma patients

   Lymphoma is a diversified disease with outcomes differing upon the types and subtypes of lymphoma as well as treatment modalities used. Fertility outcomes in patients treated with chemotherapy and/or radiation could vary and largely unknown.

10. Serum Derived From Patient Donors With Paraneoplastic Pemphigus (PNP) to Be Used as a Positive Control for PNP Test

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to obtain serum from patients with certain rare immunobullous diseases (e.g., paraneoplastic pemphigus, laminin-332 pemphigoid) to replenish a source of positive control for our clinical testing (e.g., Mayo test codes PNPAB, RSBV).  

    • To verify the performance characteristics of anti-Paraneoplastic Pemphigus (PNP) serum and validate its use as a positive control in PNP test.  

    • Serum from patients with PNP will be used for a positive control for the PNP test upon successful validation. 

    Background:  

    For various rare immunobullous diseases, detection of a circulating autoantibody is necessary for accurate diagnosis. As a CLIA requirement, every clinical test run requires positive and negative controls for quality control.  Currently, we use either archived sera or commercially available sera from patients with known relevant immunobullous diseases as a structural integrity positive control of rat bladder or transfected cells, which are the substrates for these indirect immunofluorescence tests.  

    While we have no difficulty locating negative control sera, it is challenging to source positive control sera, due to the rarity of these diseases. Specifically, commercial positive control serum is no longer available for purchase and only limited archived material is available.
