This study is testing an compound called TP-3654, which is an investigational product being developed for Myelofibrosis.

This study tests whether the study drug, a T-cell engager therapy engineered to have fewer off-target effects by increasing its specificity to tumor cells, is safe and tolerable in subjects with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) The study will also assess the potential Phase 2 dose regimens and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose.

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.

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of a new procedure to treat Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I Hurler-Scheie and Scheie (MPS I). This procedure involves collecting some white blood cells (termed “B cells”) and growing them outside of the body in a laboratory. While the cells are in the lab, the B cells will be changed to produce more of the IDUA that is missing. This process is called “genetic modification.” The newly modified B cells are then infused back into the participant.

This study will help to identify challenges and barriers to self-performing anal cancer screening tests, and may identify unique ways to make this form of screening easier, more cost-effective, and more frequently performed. We believe that it has the potential to minimize the frequency of both disease and death from anal cancer among high-risk patient groups.

The overall goal of this phase 3 non-inferiority study is to assess if selumetinib works as well as the standard treatment using carboplatin and vincristine (called CV) for subjects with low-grade glioma (LGG).

The purpose of RESTORATiVE303 is to see if the study drug, which is called VE303, is safe and effective in preventing another episode of Clostridioides Difficile Infection (CDI). VE303 is an investigational drug that has 8 strains of live bacteria, called “commensals.” Commensals are the type of bacteria that live in harmony with the body, without harming health. These specific bacteria are often found in the intestines of normal, healthy people. They were selected for inclusion in VE303 because they rarely infect humans (mostly in very weakened patients), they do not carry any toxins that can make one sick, and they are not known to carry any risk of creating or spreading resistance to antibiotics.

This study is recruiting people who have developed an infection of the lower intestine (the colon) by bacteria called Clostridioides difficile (abbreviated C. difficile or C. diff). The standard treatment for this infection is with antibiotics, but in some people, the infection keeps coming back. The purpose of this research is to test whether an investigational drug can prevent a return of the infection. We want to make sure LMN-201 is safe when used as part of standard of care for C. diff, and we want to see if we can improve treatment and reduce re-infection.

We will enroll healthy pregnant women (following enrollment, all subsequent study procedures will be completed postpartum) or postpartum women on hormonal birth control or no hormonal birth control with either a recent history of smoking and a desire to remain abstinent after childbirth, or who are currently smoking and motivated to quit smoking. Participants will be recruited throughout the continental United States (US). Participants living in Minnesota (our clinical site) will receive a 12-week course of exogenous progesterone. Participants will be followed for six months with remote visits, self-administered surveys, and self-collection of dried blood spots to measure hormones and smoking-related biomarkers.

This study is designed to determine whether BSB-1001 - a product made of genetically modified cells - is safe and possibly effective when given to patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML), Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL), or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) who are also receiving a stem cell transplant with a matched donor.

The primary purpose of this study is to identify a safe dose of GTB-3650. The study also provides preliminary disease response information for larger future studies. GTB-3650 is designed to target CD33 on leukemia/MDS cells. Cancer cells must overexpress CD33 (also referred to as CD33+), a marker found in some blood/bone marrow cancers. Based on similar studies and lab studies, it is felt there is a chance of benefit from the study treatment but the duration of benefit is unknown.

This research study is testing a potential new treatment for refractory chronic migraine (RCM). The potential new treatment is called ShiraTronics Migraine Therapy. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the ShiraTronics Migraine Therapy System. The ShiraTronics System delivers mild electrical pulses to nerves associated with migraine pain around the back and front of your head. These electrical pulses interrupt or change the transmission of pain signals to the brain, which can potentially relieve your chronic migraine pain and symptoms. The ShiraTronics System is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for investigational (under research) use, and not approved for sale.

Stem cell transplants (sometimes referred to as a bone marrow transplants) have been done for over 40 years but research continues to further refine the method to reduce side effects without affecting transplant success. The purpose of this study is to improve on transplant outcomes while reducing the potential side effects based on what has been learned from previous transplant studies using a reduced intensity preparative regimen. Information collected during this study (transplant outcomes and side effects) will be compared with the outcomes of the previous reduced intensity conditioning transplant study that enrolled more than 300 patients since 2002.

This study’s strategy is to take a personalized approach, using a type of donor source combined with a drug regimen specific to that source. The common risks of a transplant approach include graft failure – when the transplant does not take; graft versus host disease (GVHD) – when the transplanted donor cells attack the recipient; and a late effect of infertility. We are studying whether this new approach with conditioning regimen matched with donor source is safer and more effective than our previous approach. Additionally, we are testing whether the dose of radiation will reduce the risk of graft failure.

The primary research element is to determine whether a graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen of post-transplant cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus and MMF will reduce the likelihood of chronic GVHD in patients receiving a standard hematopoietic myeloablative stem cell transplant. The treatment related components of this protocol are established clinical practices. We are looking at cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD requiring systemic immunosuppressive treatment at 1 year post-transplant.

This study aims to find out whether MyoPAXon, a genetically modified cellular therapy treatment, is safe to give to patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), and whether it has any positive effect on their disease. It will also determine how much MyoPAXon is safe to give to a person at one time.

Finding liver cancer early is important to increase chances of getting treatment and decreasing risk of dying from cancer. The purpose of this research is to compare the effectiveness of two liver cancer screening methods to detect liver cancer at an early stage. Participants will be randomly (by chance) placed in one of two study groups – one group will undergo ultrasound imaging of the liver with or without a blood test to measure a specific protein, whereas the second group will undergo a blood test for liver cancer screening called a GALAD score. The GALAD score combines three blood tests to screen for liver cancer. We do not currently know if GALAD would help detect liver cancer earlier than standard screening.

This study is being conducted to compare the efficacy of subcutaneous amivantamab plus lazertinib in previously untreated EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer OR subcutaneous amivantamab plus chemotherapy after having received prior therapy for EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer.

The Kidney Precision Medicine Project (KPMP) is a research study. Our goal is learn more about kidney injury and kidney disease. By studying your kidneys, we may learn more about why chronic kidney disease happens and how to treat it more effectively or even how to prevent it. Or participants have had diabetes for many years and have not clinical signs of chronic kidney disease. By studying your kidneys, we may learn more about the factors that help protect you from kidney disease. KPMP will last for at least 10 years.

This phase I/II trial evaluates the highest safe dose, side effects, and possible benefits of tegavivint in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with recurrent or refractory solid tumors, including lymphomas and desmoid tumors.

Blood vessel inflammation can damage parts of the body. The medicines we use to treat AAV try to turn off the blood vessel inflammation to prevent damage to the body. The purpose of this study is to see how safe and how well a medicine called avacopan works when combined with a child’s regular medicine used to treat their AAV. This medicine is not approved in children, so will be called a “study drug.”

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of FT825 at different doses and to understand the way the body processes and responds to FT825. The study will also find out what effects FT825, when given with or without a monoclonal antibody (cetuximab) and different chemotherapy regimens, have on cancer. FT825 is a type of cell product made up of “T cells.” T cells are part of your immune system and are important in helping fight infections. T cells are also important in eliminating cancer cells.

This study is being done to learn more about the safety and effectiveness of ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) against extensive stage small cell lung cancer.

This research trial studies the Project: Every Child for younger patients with cancer. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.

We are doing this study to see if we can lower the chance of endometrial cancer coming back and causing death by adding a drug or drugs that target HER2 proteins in addition to the usual combination of chemotherapy drugs. We want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your endometrial cancer. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for endometrial cancer, which in this case would be chemotherapy.

The purpose of this research study is to obtain information on the safety and effectiveness of PBCAR0191 to treat certain types of cancers, such as Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. It is made from a type of blood cells known as T cells. The T cells in PBCAR0191 came from people who have donated their blood. The donated T cells have been genetically changed, so that they may be able to kill specific cancer cells commonly present in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

The purpose of this study is to determine the dose of a new medication being studied for babies who are exposed to cytomegalovirus during birth. This is called congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV). Cytomegalovirus is the leading cause of hearing loss and the leading viral cause of developmental delays in children. If a baby participates in this study, in addition to the study medication, he/she will still receive the current best treatment for cCMV, which is oral Valganciclovir.

The primary purpose of this study is to record outcomes and patient characteristics in the Cancer Center’s and BMT databases for patients who are undergoing an allogeneic (donor) hematopoietic stem cell transplant. The data will be analyzed for transplant “milestones” such as time to blood count recovery (engraftment) and how patients are doing at 3 months and 6 months after the transplant. Participation in this study will not alter treatment or medical care. All information for this study will be collected from medical records.

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Budesonide in low and high dose extended- release tablets in pediatric participants with active, mild to moderate Ulcerative Colitis and to evaluate the level of budesonide that remains in the blood after taking it. Participants will be asked to take an oral (by mouth) form of Budesonide or a placebo once daily for 8 weeks. A placebo is a tablet that does not contain any active study drug (Budesonide).

LD/CD (medications to treat Parkinson's disease) will be delivered using an assembly of nested sachets made of permeable material. The assembly is placed in the oral/buccal cavity (between cheek and gum of lower jaw) and delivers continuous release of CD and LD for both transmucosal and gastrointestinal absorption. The combination of CD/LD in the inner sachet varies from that in the outer sachet. This allows for sequential release of CD and then LD to mimic a CD pretreatment method which is known to increase LD absorption and prolong its half-life.
