Cancer Paid Clinical Trials in Minnesota

Breast cancer patients who undergo neoadjuvant systemic therapy and have residual breast cancer identified at the time of surgery exhibit a high (>50%) risk of future life-threatening recurrences and death. Read Less

This is an observational case-control study to train and validate a genome-wide methylome enrichment platform to detect multiple cancer types and to differentiate amongst cancer types. The cancers included in this study are brain, breast, bladder, cervical, colorectal, endometrial, esophageal, gastric, head and neck, hepatobiliary, leukemia, lung, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate, renal, sarcoma, and thyroid. These cancers were selected based on their prevalence and mortality to maximize impact on clinical care. Additionally, the ability of the whole-genome methylome enrichment platform to detect minimal residual disease after completion of cancer treatment and to detect relapse prior to clinical presentation will be evaluated in four cancer types (breast, colorectal, lung, prostate). These cancers were selected based on the existing clinical landscape and treatment availability. Read Less

This phase III trial compares the effect of the combination of ramucirumab and pembrolizumab versus standard of care chemotherapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs 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. This trial may help doctors find out if giving ramucirumab with pembrolizumab is more effective at treating patients with stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer than standard chemotherapy.

This phase II trial studies how well TPIV100 and sargramostim work in treating patients with HER2 positive, stage II-III breast cancer that has residual disease after chemotherapy prior to surgery. It also studies why some HER2 positive breast cancer patients respond better to chemotherapy in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab. TPIV100 is a type of vaccine made from HER2 peptide that may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells that express HER2. Sargramostim increases the number of white blood cells in the body following chemotherapy for certain types of cancer and is used to alert the immune system. It is not yet known if TPIV100 and sargramostim will work better in treating patients with HER2 positive, stage II-III breast cancer. Read Less

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of increasing doses of narazaciclib (ON 123300) in combination with the standard daily dose (2.5mg) of letrozole in patients with Recurrent Metastatic Low-grade Endometrioid Endometrial Cancer and other Gynecologic Malignancies. Read Less

Phase 2 randomized controlled multi-center study of IS-002, in conjunction with near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging, for identification of prostate cancer during robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with (extended) pelvic lymph node dissection ((e)PLND) using the da Vinci® X/Xi Surgical System with Firefly® Fluorescence Imaging.

This study aims to facilitate discovery and validation of tests for early detection in subjects at high risk for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and to facilitate the use of state-of-the-art machine learning-based algorithms that utilize databases and images with the purpose of identifying early stages of pancreatic cancer, as well as people at high-risk.The study also aims to provide a platform for development of an interventional protocol for early detection of PDAC.

A Phase I, Multicenter, Open-label, Dose-Escalation, Safety, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Study of Minnelide™Capsules given daily for 21 days followed by 7 days off schedule in patients with Advanced Solid Tumors Read Less

This study will assess the ability of the Known Medicine platform to predict the efficacy of certain cancer drug treatments and to validate that tumor organoid drug sensitivity is representative of patient treatment outcomes. Read Less

The CORRECT - MRD II study will prospectively enroll patients who have undergone complete surgical resection for stage II or III colorectal cancer. Patients will be followed for a minimum of 3 years and up to 5 years for recurrence. Read Less

This research study is studying an intervention as a possible treatment for pancreatic cancer. Read Less

This trial is designed as a non-randomized pilot trial to study, in a preliminary fashion, whether proton radiation therapy (proton RT) reduces acute gastrointestinal toxicities at the end of treatment compared to intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) Read Less
