1. A Study to Compare Two Surgical Procedures in Women With BRCA1 Mutations to Assess Reduced Risk of Ovarian Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   This trial studies how well two surgical procedures (bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy) work in reducing the risk of ovarian cancer for women with BRCA1 mutations. Bilateral salpingectomy involves the surgical removal of fallopian tubes, and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy involves the surgical removal of both the fallopian tubes and ovaries. This study may help doctors determine if the two surgical procedures are nearly the same for ovarian cancer risk reduction for women with BRCA1 mutations.

2. A Study of Prostate Cancer Care and Survivorship Among Sub-Saharan African Immigrant Impacted by Social Determinants of Migrant Health Factors

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary objective of this study is to employ the social determinant of migrant health framework (International Organization for Migration, n.d.) to examine the impact of immigration on the health-seeking behaviors of Sub-Saharan African Immigrant (SSAI) and Caribbean Immigrant (CI) men including informed-decision making, psychosocial effects and coping mechanisms.  

3. Understanding the Patient Experience in Progesterone Management for Endometrial Cancer and Complex Atypical Hyperplasia

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to gain a deeper understanding of the specific patient experience for women undergoing progesterone management for early-stage endometrial cancer and complex atypical hyperplasia due to morbid obesity (BMI ≥ 40).

4. MElanoma Research Lymph node prediction Implementation National_001 (MERLIN_001)

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study aims to create a registry for primary melanoma gene-signature to predict sentinel node (SN) status and determine its prognostic value for more accurate staging of SN-negative melanoma patients.

5. A Study to Evaluate Olaparib and Temozolomide in Treating Patients With Advanced, Metastatic, or Unresectable Uterine Leiomyosarcoma

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

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate olaparib and temozolomide in treating patients with uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) that has spread to other places of the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving olaparib and temozolomide may work better than giving either drug alone in treating patients with LMS.

6. International Hepatobiliary Neoplasia Registry and Biorepository

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

   This study is being done to:

   1. Create a registry of patients having or at risk for cancer of the liver or bile ducts (also known as hepatocellular carcinoma or cholangiocarcinoma), or gallbladder cancer, and those individuals who have normal risk factors in order to improve the ability to diagnose and treat these cancers. We will use information in the medical record in this registry including how far advanced the cancer is (stage) and what treatments are used to treat the cancer.

   2. A second purpose of this study is to obtain blood and tissue samples from participants having or at risk for developing cancer of the liver or bile ducts or gallbladder cancer to be used for future research testing. Future testing may include searching for changes in the genetic material (DNA and other molecules).

7. Interviews About Social Determinants of Health in Southeast Asian Americans to Identify Liver Cancer Disparities

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study is intended to understand the experiences and barriers to cancer care for individuals diagnosed with liver or any other type of cancer. Individual interviews will be conducted. 

8. A Study to Analyze the Association Between Financial and Health Insurance Literacy and Financial Distress in Patients Being Treated for Cancer

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the level of financial and health insurance literacy and financial distress in cancer patients coming to the infusion center by analyzing the correlation amongst these outcomes, as well assessing their association with baseline sociodemographic and disease/ treatment factors.

9. A Study to Determine the Effect of Distance Reiki on Patient Reported Quality of Life (PRQoL) and Immunity Among Multiple Myeloma Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   This study aims to demonstrate acceptability and feasibility of the use of Distance Reiki therapy versus sham Reiki therapy among multiple myeloma patients.It also aims to determine if there is a minimal clinically meaningful improvement in various QOL domains (Physical, Social, Emotional), overall QOL with use of Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS-29) and Single Item Linear Analogue Scale (LASA) after Distance Reik. Lastly, it aims to analyze the effect of Distance Reiki on expansion of the immune repertoire by comparing immune repertoires at baseline and at the end of the study by using Mass spectrometry by CyTOF® and  multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) sequencing of the T-cell receptors (TCRs) for assessment of immune repertoire diversity by iRepertoire®.

10. Profiling of Lung Cancer for Identification of Treatment Targets and Strategies

    Jacksonville, Fla.

    The purpose of this research trail is to study the genetic alteration/mutation and immune profiling in surgical resected Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) tumor samplesand to investigate the correlation between genetic alteration/mutation status and tumor immune micro-environment.
