Filter by:The purpose of the study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of avelumab in combination with Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) for blood barrier disruption in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
The primary objectives of this study are to determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of PAC-1 in combination with temozolomide in patients with high grade glioma: glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) or anaplastic astrocytoma after progression following standard first line therapy (Component 2), by evaluation of toxicity and tolerability.
This is an expanded access program (EAP) for patient with Melanoma and Glioblastoma who have progressed after prior Protocol therapy including Bevacizumab, Temozolomide ( TMZ ), Ipilimumab, BRAF and MEK inhibitors. The patients whose tumors are EGFR, MET or ALK positive should first receive an EFGR or ALK inhibitor, respectively, prior to treatment with pembrolizumab.
The main purpose of this study is the evaluation of concomitant association of ultrafractionated irradiation and Temodal® in patients with inoperable primary glioblastoma multiforme; study of tolerance and objective response rate. The secondary purposes of this study are the evaluation of progression free survival, global survival and tolerance through toxicity study. The therapeutic response according to methylation or not of MGMT is also evaluated.
The purpose of this prospective, nonrandomized controlled phase IV study is to compare standard and advanced MRI for their ability to predict response to Optune therapy.
This is a Phase 1/1b Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of AMG 596 monotherapy or in combination with AMG 404 in Subjects with Glioblastoma or Malignant Glioma Expressing Mutant Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Variant III (EGFRvIII). This is a first in human (FIH), open-label, sequential-dose-escalation study in subjects with EGFRvIII-positive glioblastoma or malignant glioma. This study will enroll 2 groups of subjects according to disease stage, recurrent disease (Group 1) and maintenance treatment after SoC in newly diagnosed disease (Group 2).
Glioblastoma is the most common and the most aggressive primary brain cancer in adults. Indeed, despite very intensive treatments (i.e. maximal safe surgery, radiotherapy and several lines of cytotoxic chemotherapies), inducing significant adverse events, the prognosis of glioblastoma patients remains dismal with a median overall survival of ~15 months. Therefore, more efficient and less toxic therapies are urgently needed to improve survival and quality of life of glioblastoma patients. The oncolytic virus TG6002 has shown efficacy and good safety profile in several preclinical models of glioblastoma in vitro (i.e. cell line) and in vivo (i.e. xenografts in Swiss/Nude mice). Comprehensive toxicology studies of TG6002/Flucytosine have been completed in rabbits and monkeys supporting safety investigations of TG6002/Flucytosine in human patients. Taken these data all together, TG6002/Flucytosine appears as a very promising therapeutic strategy in glioblastoma patients that merits consideration for early phase clinical trial.
Brain tumours are the leading cause of cancer deaths in children, men under the age of 45 and women under the age of 25. Glioblastoma is the most common and most malignant primary tumour. The predominant treatment is surgical removal of the tumour followed by radiotherapy. Sadly the majority of patients given this treatment develop recurrent and progressive disease. Better understanding of the invasive margin might improve outcomes by facilitating more complete surgical resection beyond the traditional contrast enhancing margins. Diffusion tensor MRI (DTI) is an imaging technique which may be able to predict the site of tumour recurrence. DTI has previously been shown to identify regions, which have been confirmed with biopsies, to be areas of invasive tumours and are present before progression is seen with an MRI. The primary aim of this study is to qualify an imaging biomarker that can be applied at initial presentation, that can accurately predict the site of where glioblastomas will progress after treatment and allow personalisation of both radiotherapy and surgical targets.
This is a pilot, observational study to evaluate the intraoperative sensitivity of the Chaos Wand in detecting tumor tissue with glioblastoma disease.
This investigation is not only to develop an improved radiation/temozolomide approach, but also develop a regimen with potential to form the basis of better combined therapy with immune based treatments.
