Filter by:The investigators plan to collect clinical and molecular data, including ICH, PCR, NGS and methylome, from patients operated on for grade 2 or grade 3 meningioma. The purpose of the study is to identify reliable and easy-to-assess predictive factors for recurrence and survival after surgery.
The primary objective of this Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation, and exploratory study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability profile (establish the maximum-tolerated dose) and evaluate the occurrence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) following single weekly or multiple-day weekly dose regimens of single-agent, oral ONC206 in patients with recurrent, primary central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms.
Approximately 90% of children with malignant brain tumors that have recurred or relapsed after receiving conventional therapy will die of disease. Despite this terrible and frustrating outcome, continued treatment of this population remains fundamental to improving cure rates. Studying this relapsed population will help unearth clues to why conventional therapy fails and how cancers continue to resist modern advances. Moreover, improvements in the treatment of this relapsed population will lead to improvements in upfront therapy and reduce the chance of relapse for all. Novel therapy and, more importantly, novel approaches are sorely needed. This trial proposes a new approach that evaluates rational combination therapies of novel agents based on tumor type and molecular characteristics of these diseases. The investigators hypothesize that the use of two predictably active drugs (a doublet) will increase the chance of clinical efficacy. The purpose of this trial is to perform a limited dose escalation study of multiple doublets to evaluate the safety and tolerability of these combinations followed by a small expansion cohort to detect preliminary efficacy. In addition, a more extensive and robust molecular analysis of all the participant samples will be performed as part of the trial such that we can refine the molecular classification and better inform on potential response to therapy. In this manner the tolerability of combinations can be evaluated on a small but relevant population and the chance of detecting antitumor activity is potentially increased. Furthermore, the goal of the complementary molecular characterization will be to eventually match the therapy with better predictive biomarkers. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: - To determine the safety and tolerability and estimate the maximum tolerated dose/recommended phase 2 dose (MTD/RP2D) of combination treatment by stratum. - To characterize the pharmacokinetics of combination treatment by stratum. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE: - To estimate the rate and duration of objective response and progression free survival (PFS) by stratum.
A Phase II, Open-label, Single Arm Trial of Pembrolizumab for Refractory Atypical and Anaplastic Meningioma
Meningiomas with malignant components include grade II meningiomas (GIIM, the most common ones) and grade III meningiomas (GIIIM). They represent 5-35% of all meningiomas. Histological diagnosis of GIIM criteria were changed in 2007 and might be viewed by some as being quite subjective. "Standards of care" and consensus do not exist for GIIM, particularly in regards to performing, or not, radiotherapy after surgery. One other limitation in the literature is lack of data on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Clinical trials for GIIM are very difficult to conduct. No results have been made available. Here, we propose to study clinical, pathological, radiological and therapeutic factors of an exhaustive population of GIIM and GIIIM patients, at national level. The main objective (for GIIM) is to assess the impact of postoperative radiotherapy, or the absence of postoperative radiotherapy, on overall survival and on quality of life
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as cellular adoptive immunotherapy, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Donor T cells that are treated in the laboratory may be effective treatment for malignant glioma. Aldesleukin may stimulate the white blood cells to kill tumor cells. Combining different types of biological therapies may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best way to give therapeutic donor lymphocytes together with aldesleukin in treating patients with stage III or stage IV malignant glioma.
