A Prospective Feasibility Study Using ctDNA to Tailor Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Patients With Colorectal or Appendiceal Adenocarcinoma
Recruiting
To learn if circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) testing before cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with or without heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) can show if patients have a low or high risk of the disease returning and help doctors decide if less or more intense chemotherapy is needed as treatment before surgery. ctDNA testing measures the amount of tumor DNA (genetic information) in the blood.

Sequential Therapy in Multiple Myeloma Guided by MRD Assessments
Recruiting
This research study will determine the proportion of patients with lowest minimal residual disease (MRD) response obtainable after receiving 6 cycles of study treatment. Minimal residual disease is multiple myeloma cells below the level of 1 cancer cell out of 100,000 in the bone marrow. For patients who become MRD "negative" (i.e. less than 1 cancer cell out of 100,000) at the end of 6 cycles of therapy, this study will study if that good response can be maintained with 3 additional cycles of...

Preoperative Y-90 Radioembolization for Tumor Control and Future Liver Remnant Hypertrophy in Patients With Colorectal Liver Metastases
Recruiting
A prospective, interventional study evaluating the safety of Y-90 TARE for tumor control of the right side and induction of left liver hypertrophy as part of a planned single-stage or two-stage hepatectomy for patients with CLM and insufficient FLR at the time of presentation.

Impact Of Muscle Vibration On Gait Control
Recruiting
This is a single-site interventional open label pilot study of a non-significant risk medical device on patients with defined peripheral neuropathy secondary to chemotherapy (N=10). Patients who have received chemotherapy and have evidence of neuropathy will be seen at MD Anderson. Their severity of neuropathy will be documented and assessed by physical therapy, occupational therapy and based on self-reported activities of daily living (ADL) impairment.

Short Stitch Versus Traditional Suture for the Prevention of Incisional Hernia After Open Hepatectomy
Recruiting
This clinical trial compares two different kinds of surgical closing techniques, short stitch suture or traditional suture, in patients who are having liver tumor surgery. This study may help researchers learn if one technique can lower the chances of developing a hole in the wall of the abdomen (an abdominal hernia) at the incision site better than the other.

Dyadic Yoga Intervention for the Improvement of Healthcare Utilization and Quality of Life in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer Undergoing Chemoradiation and Their Caregivers
Recruiting
This study evaluates if partner-based (dyadic) yoga programs may improve the quality of life of patients with head and neck cancer undergoing chemoradiation and their caregivers, and if it is a cost-effective option. Yoga programs may decrease how often patients come to the hospital during and after treatment with chemoradiation, and improve the quality of life for both patients and caregivers.

Pegloticase for the Reduction of Uric Acid in Patients With Tumor Lysis Syndrome
Recruiting
This trial studies the effect of pegloticase in reducing uric acid levels in patients with hyperuricemia (high blood levels of uric acid) caused by tumor lysis syndrome. Tumor lysis syndrome occurs when the breakdown products of cancer cells, such as uric acid, enter the blood stream. High levels of uric acid in blood may cause kidney damage and reduce kidney function. The goal of this trial is to learn if pegloticase may lower uric acid levels in blood when given to cancer patients with hyperur... Read More

Addition of Cord Blood Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells to Ruxolitinib for the Treatment of Steroid-Refractory Acute Graft Versus Host Disease
Recruiting
This early phase I trial is to find out the effect of adding cord blood tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (cb-MSCs) to ruxolitinib in treating patients with acute graft versus host disease that does not respond to steroid therapy (steroid-refractory). Ruxolitinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. cb-MSCs are a type of tissue helper cell that can be removed from donated umbilical cord blood tissue and grown into many different cell...
