  • A Blood Collection Protocol to Study the Immune Responses of Cancer Patients with Malignancies Scottsdale/Phoenix, AZ; Rochester, MN

    This is a peripheral blood Collection Protocol to study the T-cell immune responses of patients with malignancies displaying one of three different patterns of antigen expression: (1) Cohort 1 focuses on cancers displaying a high (80-90%) frequency of MUC1 expression and variably high (unreported to 50%) HER2/neu (“HER2”) expression; (2) Cohort 2 focuses on primary or secondary myelofibrosis (MF) displaying mutated calreticulin (muCALR); (3) Cohort 3 focuses on glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) which often displays the cytomegalovirus tegument protein CMVpp65. Cohort 1 includes blood collections for in vitro studies which are a component of NIH-funded Project 3 within the Mayo Clinic ...

  • Study of Generating and Banking Clinical-grade Stem Cells for Regenerative Medicine Jacksonville, FL

    The purpose of this study is to collect, convert and bank blood cells from healthy volunteers into stem cells (iPSCs) at a current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) facility within the Discovery and Innovation building on the Mayo FLorida campus. After comprehensive validation, we will bank those cGMP-iPSCs as a resource available to Mayo Clinic investigators and also to outside investigators as appropriate. Those bio-specimens could be unique resources to develop new protocols for production of clinical grade iPSC-derived cells, cell-derived products such as extracellular vesicles, and tissues to support Investigational New Drug (IND) and related clinical trials.
