This phase III trial tests how well adding dinutuximab to induction chemotherapy along with standard of care surgery radiation and stem cell transplantation works for treating children with newly diagnosed high risk neuroblastoma. Dinutuximab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to a molecule called GD2, which is found in greater than normal amounts on some types of cancer cells. This helps cells of the immune system kill the cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs such as cyclophosphamide, topotecan, cisplatin, etoposide, vincristine, dexrazoxane, doxorubicin, temozolomide, irinotecan and isotretinoin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing or by stopping them from spreading. During induction, chemotherapy and surgery are used to kill and remove as much tumor as possible. During consolidation, very high doses of chemotherapy are given to kill any remaining cancer cells. This chemotherapy also destroys healthy bone marrow, where blood cells are made. A stem cell transplant is a procedure that helps the body make new healthy blood cells to replace the blood cells that may have been harmed by the cancer and/or chemotherapy. Radiation therapy is also given to the site where the cancer originated (primary site) and to any other areas that are still active at the end of induction.

This study is for people who have Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), Fanconi Anemia (FA) or a bone marrow failure disorder that puts them at a higher risk of developing a form of skin cancer called squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). To learn more about these disorders and their relationship to cancer, researchers are collecting skin and blood samples to study in the lab. Blood and skin donated to the will be used by researchers at the University of Minnesota in studying the causes, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of these disorders. We expect that this study will take about two hours, or the amount of time it takes to check in for a clinic visit and collect the specimens.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T in detecting lesions during a PET scan. This study is open to men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer who plan to have a prostatectomy and lymph node removal. Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T is an investigational PET imaging agent, given to you via IV injection, similar to the way other imaging agents are used in many other types of scans. Cu 64 specifically targets the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) that is found on the surface of metastatic prostate cancer cells. Increased image contrast may make it easier for the doctor to see smaller lesions compared to other imaging agents.

AML is a type of blood cancer where infection fighting cells called white blood cells (WBCs) don’t grow up or “mature” like they are supposed to. Instead, they stay stuck as infant or immature “blast” cells. This study will investigate the potential risks and benefits of adding a targeted therapy called ziftomenib to intensive therapy (7+3) OR non-intensive (Venetoclax + Azacitidine) for patients whose cancers are found to have KMT2A rearrangements or mutations in the NPM1 gene. We will also see if the use of ziftomenib as maintenance therapy following consolidation is beneficial.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of a new investigational drug called CRN04894, also called atumelnant for treating pediatric participants with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH). We want to see how safe atumelnant is at different doses and how well the body accepts (tolerates) it and how it moves through the body (how it gets in, spreads around, gets used, and then leaves), also known as pharmacokinetics (PK). We also want to see if if atumelnant produces the expected effect in the body, if it helps control the CAH, and if we can reduce the steroid (GC) dose.

The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of NXC-201 to treat AL amyloidosis. The people in this study have AL amyloidosis that came back or does not get better with treatment. NXC-201 is a cellular therapy made from your own white blood cells called T cells. If you join this study, we will collect some of your T cells and modify (change) them in a lab. This modification will help your T cells find and kill abnormal plasma cells. These genetically changed T cells are called chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells. NXC-201 is a CAR T cell therapy and is given intravenously (by vein). To prepare your body for NXC-201, you will also get fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, which are chemotherapy drugs. After you get NXC-201, you will be in the hospital for at least 10 days.

We have determined that the microbes (bacteria) in the colon can play a role in causing and preventing complications of colon surgery. While the surgical bowel prep before surgery eliminates the harmful bacteria, it also eliminates the beneficial bacteria that aid wound healing. The purpose of this study is to determine if we can restore the presence of good bacteria (also known as ‘intestinal microbiota’) in the colon by transplanting them from a healthy donor.
