Filter by:The purpose of this study is to to describe the effect of a palliative regimen consisting of Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) on distress, quality of life (QOL), neurocognition, days in the hospital, patient disposition, and readmission in newly diagnosed World Health Organization (WHO) grade IV malignant glioma (glioblastoma (GBM) or gliosarcoma) patients unable to undergo broader surgical resection. The primary objective is to assess changes in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) distress thermometer in newly diagnosed WHO grade IV malignant glioma patients who receive LITT. *Please note: This study was originally designed as a interventional device study studying the effect of the LITT procedure; however, it was re-designed as an observational study in which the patient population being studied is approved to receive the LITT procedure.
To assess: - efficacy of APL-101 as monotherapy for the treatment of NSCLC harboring MET Exon 14 skipping mutations, NSCLC harboring MET amplification, solid tumors harboring MET amplification, solid tumors harboring MET fusion, primary CNS tumors harboring MET alterations, solid tumors harboring wild-type MET with overexpression of HGF and MET - efficacy of APL-101 as an add-on therapy to EGFR inhibitor for the treatment of NSCLC harboring EGFR activating mutations and developed acquired resistance with MET amplification and disease progression after documented CR or PR with 1st line EGFR inhibitors (EGFR-I)
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well atezolizumab works in combination with temozolomide and radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy beams to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. It is not yet known how well atezolizumab works in combination with temozolomide and radiation therapy in treating patients with glioblastoma.
This study aims to treat patients who have been diagnosed with brain cancer including glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The treatment combines two different approaches to fight cancer: immune modulators and antigen-specific T cells. Immune checkpoint antibodies have been tested on various tumors with good outcomes. GBM is known to express increased levels of certain antigens that can be targeted by antigen-specific T cells. Thus, in this study, the gene-modified T cells specific for GBM antigens will be combined with immune modulatory genes to treat patients in dose escalation cohorts.
The objective of N²M² is the improvement of overall survival of patients with glioblastoma with an unmethylated MGMT promoter based on molecular characterization and use of targeted compounds in a modern trial design. The progression-free survival rate at six months (PFS-6) will be used to make decisions.
This randomized pilot clinical trial studies health care coach support in reducing acute care use and cost in patients with cancer. Health care coach support may help cancer patients to make decisions about their care that matches what is important to them with symptom management.
This study was conducted on the post-operative tumor tissues from 62 GBM patients. 20 slices are necessary for all the CD95 and CpG2 test in the central lab by the methods of immunisation and DNA methylation.
This research study is evaluating an investigational drug, an oncolytic virus called rQNestin34.5v.2. This research study is a Phase I clinical trial, which tests the safety of an investigational drug and also tries to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug as a possible treatment for this diagnosis of recurrent or progressive brain tumor.
Neuro-oncological trials may fail due to the drug never getting to the intended target (i.e. within the tumor micro environment). Also, changes' occurring in tumor cells when removed from patients and grown in-vitro is another limiting factor influencing the clinical success. Important questions are therefore: 1. Does the drug get there? 2. Does the drug do what it is intended to do? To improve chances of clinical success there is a need for rational and intelligent selection of potential drugs in future trials. This is an initiative for analyzing tumor concentration of preoperative administered repurposed drugs
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and clinical activity of Pamiparib in combination with radiation therapy (RT) and/or temozolomide (TMZ) in participants with newly diagnosed or recurrent/refractory glioblastoma.
