Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to monitor and validate the performance and stability of the BRAHMS Chromogranin A (CgA) II KRYPTOR Assay in patients with Gastroentero-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs).

The purpose of this registry at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville, is to keep a database and biospecimens of all patients treated surgically and non-surgically for a gastro-enteropancreatic mass or a suspected metastatic lesion from a gastro-entero-pancreatic primary. This registry will keep demographic, clinical and pathologic data on each patient as well as follow-up information on outcome endpoints such as death and recurrence of disease, blood cell samples, and tissue samples from surgically removed tumors.

Advanced Accelerator Applications is currently pursuing marketing approval for 177Lu-DOTA0-Tyr3-Octreotate (Lutathera). This expanded access therapeutic protocol aims to allow patients suffering from inoperable, somatostatin receptor positive, neuroendocrine tumors, progressive under somatostatin analogue therapy to access the investigational product, 177Lu-DOTA0-Tyr3-Octreotate (Lutathera), prior to its commercial availability.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the challenges, behavioral patterns, and preferences of minority patient participation in clinical trials. Also, to develop and validate a personalized clinical trial educational platform to boost participation among underserved cancer patients.

Falls are common and catastrophic in cancer patients. Cancer patients are vulnerable to falls due to muscle loss. In prescribing exercise in a data driven manner to cancer patients, our hypothesis is this "prescription" for exercise will eventually be demonstrated to reduce the occurrence of injurious falls.
