This phase II trial studies how well reduced doses of radiation therapy to the brain and spine (craniospinal) and chemotherapy work in treating patients with newly diagnosed type of brain tumor called WNT)/Wingless (WNT)-driven medulloblastoma. Recent studies using chemotherapy and radiation therapy have been shown to be effective in treating patients with WNT-driven medulloblastoma. However, there is a concern about the late side effects of treatment, such as learning difficulties, lower amounts of hormones, or other problems in performing daily activities. Radiotherapy uses high-energy radiation from x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide and lomustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving reduced craniospinal radiation therapy and chemotherapy may kill tumor cells and may also reduce the late side effects of treatment.

The purpose of this study is to create a long-term, prospective database of cutaneous lymphoma that will lead to a better understanding of the biological behavior of cutaneous lymphomas as well as the effectiveness of interventions.

Rochester, Minn.
This phase II trial studies how well erismodegib and lenalidomide after stem cell transplant works in treating patients with multiple myeloma. Erismodegib and lenalidomide may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and may delay the recurrence of myeloma after a stem cell transplant.

This is a dose escalation followed by dose expansion study of TL32711 in combination with 5-Azacitidine in subjects with Myelodysplastic syndrome who are naïve, have relapsed or have failed prior 5-azacitidine therapy. Pre-clinical and mechanistic studies support that 5-Azacitidine may modulate pathways that enable birinapant-mediated anti-tumor activity.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safe dose of EPZ-5676, to evaluate the safety of EPZ-5676 in patients with advanced hematologic malignancies, and to conduct a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of EPZ-5676 in patients with acute leukemias bearing rearrangements of the MLL gene.
Currently this study is in the MLL-r restricted/expansion phase and is only enrolling patients with rearrangements involving the MLL gene, including 11q23 or partial tandem duplications (PTD).

Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
The purpose of this study is is to assess the side effects and best dose of akt inhibitor MK2206 when given together with bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab, and to see how well they work in treating patients with treatment resistant chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving Akt inhibitor MK2206 with bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab may be an effective treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma that has returned after treatment.

Rochester, Minn.
The goal of this study is to correlate protein content in vestibular schwannomas and cerebrospinal fluid to patient outcomes, imaging findings, and other relevant clinical endpoints in patients who presented with both this tumor type and hydrocephalus.
-
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
The purpose of this study is to determine the response of entrectinib (RXDX-101) for the treatment of patients with solid tumors that have an NTRK1/2/3, ROS1, or ALK gene rearrangement.

Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to gain stepwise understanding of the fundamental biology governing human antitumor immunity, by systematic study of the tumor-immune interface at the level of the TME, taking advantage of the heterogeneity of different interacting tumor and immune cell subsets.

The purpose of this repository is to collect tissue and blood specimens of non-melanoma skin cancers for future studies. The aim is to create a single, annotated bio-repository of non-melanoma skin cancers. Additionally, we may create cell lines and patient derived tumors from collected samples. This is a highly significant first step to understand the underlying drivers of disease.
