This phase III trial studies how well blinatumomab works in combination with chemotherapy in treating patients (365 Days to 31 Years) with newly diagnosed, standard risk B-lymphoblastic leukemia or B-lymphoblastic lymphoma with or without Down syndrome. Monoclonal antibodies, such as blinatumomab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vincristine, dexamethasone, prednisone, prednisolone, pegaspargase, methotrexate, cytarabine, mercaptopurine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and thioguanine, 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. Leucovorin decreases the toxic effects of methotrexate. Giving monoclonal antibody therapy with chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. Giving blinatumomab and combination chemotherapy may work better then combination chemotherapy alone in treating patients with B-ALL. This trial also assigns patients into different chemotherapy treatment regimens based on risk (the chance of cancer returning after treatment). Treating patients with chemotherapy based on risk may help doctors decide which patients can best benefit from which chemotherapy treatment regimens.

This study will test whether adding in daily weighing (5-7 days per week) is helpful in weight loss. In adults, it has been found to be helpful to have individuals who are obese to be more successful with their weight loss efforts if they weigh themselves at home every day. We want to see if this could be helpful in children as well. This research will last for about 12 weeks (3 months).

This study is being done to look at how pregnancy affects the health of women with cystic fibrosis (CF) and to look at the health of babies born to women with CF. It is expected that most but not all women will be taking the newest CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) modulator medication called TRIKAFTA®. It is not known how this medication will affect the health of mother and infant.

This phase I/II trial studies how well tiragolumab and atezolizumab works when given to children and adults with SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficient tumors that that has either come back (relapsed) or does not respond to therapy (refractory). SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficiency means that tumor cells are missing the SMARCB1 and SMARCA4 genes, which is related to having more aggressive cancers that are harder to treat. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as tiragolumab and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

This is a study about a special park program built for kids and families who identify as African American or Black, live in the Twin Cities region, and participate in less physical activity than is recommended. This research study takes approximately 4 months, from June to September, with 1 additional visit in May. All activities will happen at French Regional Park, in Plymouth, MN.

There are certain genetic changes in the leukemia cell thought to drive the disease in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Ziftomenib is an investigational drug that blocks the menin pathway in hopes of preventing or slowing the leukemia cells from growing and dividing. The purpose of this study is to determine the safe dose of an investigational new drug (ziftomenib) used in combination with other study drugs i.e., venetoclax and azacitidine, to treat cancer. This will include an evaluation of side effects associated with ziftomenib in combination with the other study drugs and how ziftomenib works in combination with the other study drugs (venetoclax and azacitidine).

Smokeless tobacco users who are unable or unwilling to quit tobacco use may be exposed to the potent oral and esophageal carcinogen NNN not only from tobacco itself, but also via its endogenous synthesis from nornicotine. The proposed study will lead to an understanding of the endogenous formation of NNN from nornicotine in humans, and will also investigate the effect of the reduction of nornicotine content in smokeless tobacco on the extent of endogenous NNN formation. The knowledge gained in this study will lead to the development of recommendations for the regulation, or potentially elimination, of nornicotine in smokeless tobacco products in order to minimize exposure to NNN in the users of these products.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the effectiveness and safety of a new study drug called AFM13 when used in combination with a new cell therapy called AB-101. AFM13 is an antibody designed to bind to cancer cells and to “natural killer” cells. AB-101 refers to natural killer cells that were obtained from human umbilical cord blood. Natural killer cells are part of your immune system and their primary function is fighting infections and cancer. AFM13 binds the natural killer cells and links them with the cancer cells, so they can eliminate the cancer cells.

This study is to investigate if robotic assisted laparoscopy (small incision surgery), is worse than open surgery (otherwise known as a laparotomy) when performing a radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. Previous research has been done and shown that patients receiving laparoscopy had an increased risk of recurrence of their cervical cancer. But since that time a lot has been learned and improvements have been made, hence why we are relooking at the differences between the two surgical approaches.

The purpose of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study - ARIC Generation 2 research study is to evaluate the link between glucose and heart problems in adults with type 2 diabetes. Heart problems can be common in people with type 2 diabetes. We are interested in measuring your blood sugar (glucose) using a continuous glucose monitor and monitoring your heart rhythm at the same time.

The purpose of this research is to compare any good and bad effects of using radium-223 along with docetaxel chemotherapy (at a lower dose) treatment versus using docetaxel alone (at the usual dose). The addition of radium-223 to docetaxel could be a better cancer treatment than just docetaxel alone, but it could also cause additional side effects. This study will allow the researchers to know whether this different approach is better, the same, or worse than the usual approach.

The purpose of this study is to find out what dose of CABA-201 can be safely administered to patients with SLE, including those with lupus nephritis (LN). SLE is thought to involve B cells that cause the body to attack different tissues in the body including your skin, joints, kidneys, heart, lungs, brain, and blood cells. LN is a type of kidney disease caused by SLE. CABA-201 is a chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR T) therapy. In this study, we will take some of your T cells, a type of white blood cell, and genetically modify them (put in a “code”) so that they may find and remove the B cells in your body, including the B cells that are involved in causing your disease. Once your cells are modified, CABA-201 cells will be re-infused into your body intravenously (through the vein).

The purpose of this study is to better understand how switching from smoking to the use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) may change users’ exposures to various harmful chemicals. Your participation will also help us to understand how nicotine that is present in e-cigarettes is taken in and modified by your body.

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 first-in-human study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of TORL-1-23 in patients with advanced cancer.

To maintain a biorepository (sample bank) of biological samples from different tobacco users and non-users to investigate how tobacco and nicotine products affect our bodies. The samples will be used by researchers to develop methods to look for biological “markers” (biomarkers), or chemical changes in the body, that occur due to tobacco or nicotine exposure. The goal is to eventually use these biomarkers to improve detection, prevention, and treatment strategies for tobacco-related diseases.

A Phase I/II trial of single agent intravenous CBL0137 in pediatric patients (≥ 12 months and ≤ 30 years) with relapsed/refractory solid tumors, including CNS tumors and lymphoma.

In this study, the researchers are collecting blood samples to learn more about laronidase treatment in children that receive a hematopoietic cell transplantation. The laronidase dose regimens used after a hematopoietic cell transplantation may differ from those administered before. This study will establish the basis for determining if there is a need to adjust laronidase dosing regimens after receiving a hematopoietic cell transplantation.

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.

Nephrotic syndrome is a condition which affects the kidneys causing them to leak protein from the blood into the urine. Nephrotic syndrome is a disease that can improve (remission) and worsen (relapse) at different times throughout childhood. By collecting health information and laboratory samples, our goal is to learn more about these kidney diseases and find better ways to prevent and treat people with nephrotic syndrome. New knowledge will be shared with researchers and the public.

The study will test dordaviprone (also known as ONC201), a new drug that is being developed for treating people with glioma. ONC201 may help to remove tumor cells without affecting normal cells of the body. ONC201 is a first-in-class drug, which means it is a new drug having unique action.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of PC945 when given in combination with the antifungal therapy that is normally given for this condition, also known as the standard of care (SoC). This study will also assess how PC945 is processed in the body (e.g., distributed, transformed, and removed) by measuring the levels of PC945 in your blood and lungs; this is called pharmacokinetics (PK).

The I-SPY2 study uses 10 years of results to help your doctor understand more about your tumor and how to classify it better. This means your doctor will have more information and might be able to offer you a new treatment that could work better than the usual treatments. We need better treatments and better ways to identify which patients will benefit most from particular treatments.

The purpose of this screening study is to collect samples to conduct the testing of specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA). TScan Therapeutics is developing cellular therapies across multiple solid tumors in which the eligibility criteria require that participants have specific HLA types. The results from this screening study will be used to determine if participants meet the eligibility criteria and could potentially be enrolled in a future TScan treatment study.

The main purpose of this study is to look at how safe and well tolerated the study drug is in combination with ribociclib (Group 1) or alpelisib (Group 2), the levels of the study drug and ribociclib or alpelisib in your blood, and how your body and your cancer respond.

This phase II trial studies how well inotuzumab ozogamicin works in treating younger patients (≥1 year and < 22 years ) with CD22 positive B acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Immunotoxins, such as inotuzumab ozogamicin, are antibodies linked to a toxic substance and may help find cancer cells that express CD22 and kill them without harming normal cells.

The purpose of this study is to learn whether the use of Pregnyl with the drug ruxolitinib is able to reduce the need for high dose steroids to treat severe acute Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD).

This is an early study of TAK-280 for people diagnosed with a type of cancer that cannot be treated or removed by surgery and the tumor is growing or has spread during or after other standard cancer treatment.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and ability of a transplant with your own gene modified stem cells (autologous stem cell transplant) to treat sickle cell disease. The goal is to determine if a sufficient amount of hemoglobin that prevents red blood sickling can be produced after the gene modified stem cells are returned to your body. This study may provide information on the potential usefulness of bb1111 for treatment of sickle cell disease

We are studying FT522 - a new product that is made by modifying cells in a laboratory - both with and without additional drugs, to see if it can help treat people with B-cell lymphoma. This study is for people who have had at least one treatment for their lymphoma, but the cancer either returned or did not respond to the treatment. We are testing this product to see what side effects it might have, as well as to see whether it is effective at treating B-cell lymphoma.
