Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine how safe and how well-tolerated the experimental study drug, C134 is when re-administered into the brain where the tumor is located.
Temozolomide provided significant and clinically meaningful benefit in MGMT gene promoter methylation glioblastoma. However, in unmethylated patients, the effect of Temozolomide is limited. The aim of this study is to compare the effect of Cisplatin plus Temozolomide and Temozolomide in patients with MGMT gene promoter unmethylation glioblastoma
The purpose of this research study is to determine the safety and efficacy of administering two doses of lerapolturev in residual disease (within tumor margins) after surgery, followed later by repeated injections of lerapolturev in the subcutaneous area (under the skin) around the lymph nodes of the head and neck for adult patients diagnosed with recurrent glioblastoma at the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center (PRTBTC) at Duke.
Standard of care therapy and all FDA approved adjuvant therapy for glioblastoma continue to provide < 12-month progression free survival (PFS) and < 24-month overall survival (OS). Standard of care therapy continues to be defined by the volume of tumor that enhances with gadolinium on standard magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The investigators have identified a significant tumor burden in non-enhancing (NE) regions beyond the contrast-enhancing (CE) portion of tumor. Furthermore, the investigators have adapted a pH-sensitive technique called amine chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI to identify tumor cells in NE regions with high sensitivity and specificity. This study is a randomized trial of CEST based resections versus standard of care in newly diagnosed glioblastoma with primary endpoint of progression free survival and secondary endpoints of overall survival and quality of life metrics. The hypothesis being tested is whether surgical resection of infiltrating tumor cells visualized by CEST MRI contributes to survival in glioblastoma patients.
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the study drug olutasidenib to treat newly diagnosed pediatric and young adult patients with a high-grade glioma (HGG) harboring an IDH1 mutation. The main question the study aims to answer is whether the combination of olutasidenib and temozolomide (TMZ) can prolong the life of patients diagnosed with an IDH-mutant HGG.
This phase II trial tests how well retifanlimab with bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy, compared to bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy alone, works in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as retifanlimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Giving retifanlimab with bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy may work better in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma than bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy alone.
PreOperative PreRAdIotherapy Tumour Treating Fields (PORTRAIT) is a Phase I study that will test the safety and feasibility of Optune administered preoperatively and preradiotherapy in patients with a new radiological diagnosis of glioblastoma (GBM). Participants will be required to undergo additional MRI sequencing scans and provide blood, tear fluid and tissue samples over a maximum of 6 months. After the study patients will follow their standard treatment pathway.
In Australia, glioblastoma (GBM) has a higher annual fatality rate than a variety of other cancers, such as melanoma, bladder, and kidney tumors. While the 5-year survival rate for other cancers, such as breast and prostate cancer, has increased, there have been no notable advancements in GBM during the past ten years, and the incidence and mortality patterns have barely changed between 1982 and 2011. In particular, GBM poses a challenging therapeutic dilemma for patients and physicians due to its aggressive biology and resistance to available treatments. Recent studies showed that cytomegalovirus (CMV) is expressed in GBM tumors, making it a good target for immunotherapy trials. This phase I trial aims to determine the safety and tolerability of the PEP-CMV vaccine in patients with newly diagnosed MGMT-unmethylated GBM in combination with one cycle of adjuvant temozolomide.
The goal of this interventional study is the development and validation of imaging markers, MRI and PET, plasma biomarkers, and/or cell markers that could support clinicians and researchers in differentiating pseudoprogression from true tumor progression in routine clinical activities and clinical trials in patients affected by glioblastoma. The endpoints of the study are: - the elaboration of predictive models using imaging advanced biomarkers, PET and MRI, biological serum markers, and cancer cell derived makers to differentiate tumor pseudoprogression or real progression in patients affected by glioblastoma who underwent therapeutical protocol as per treating physicians' indications (Stupp or hypofractionated RT) - to establish an in vivo murine model of pseudoprogression by orthotopic transplantation of glioblastoma stem cells derived from thirty-five patient subjected to subsequent treatment with irradiation and temozolomide administration. Participants will undergo: - baseline MRI and 18F-GE-180 PET imaging, and blood withdrawal - surgery - collection of glioblastoma stem cells (and hematopoietic stem cells from a sub-group of subjects) - standard treatment with radiotherapy and chemotherapy - MRI every 3 months - PET and blood withdrawal in case of MRI evidence of either suspected tumor progression or pseudoprogression - second surgery OR stereotactic biopsy OR clinico-radiological follow-up as for standard of care according to the Institutional Multidisciplinary Brain Tumor Board
This is a Phase 1/2a, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and preliminary clinical activity of RZ-001 administered in combination with VGCV in subjects with hTERT-positive GBM.
