Filter by:This is an open-label, monotherapy study of pemigatinib in participants with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) or other recurrent gliomas, circumscribed astrocytic gliomas, and glioneuronal and neuronal tumors with an activating FGFR1-3 mutation or fusion/rearrangement. This study consists of 2 cohorts, Cohorts A, and B, and will enroll approximately 82 participants into each cohort. Participants will receive pemigatinib 13.5 mg QD on a 2-week on-therapy and 1-week off-therapy schedule as long as they are receiving benefit and have not met any criteria for study withdrawal.
A study is being performed to observe whether a novel type of brain imaging using a technique called PET-MRI may provide useful information in the 'mapping' of adult primary brain tumours. It employs a radiolabelled molecule targeting a particular molecule called PSMA which is hypothesised to be a marker of aggression in primary brain tumours. 'Mapping' of the concentration and distribution of this molecule within brain tumours via PET-MRI may provide vital clinical information regarding the extent and timing of treatment.
Every new classification depends on its prognostic power and on the type of treatment given. With the rapid evolution of diagnostic methods and the advance in new treatments, there is much less reliable information available on how patients with newly defined brain tumour entities should be treated and what to expect from the current treatments. The goal is to determine whether the new 2021 WHO classification, based on cIMPACT-NOW recommendations, results in more homogeneous patient groups than the old 2016 classification. Furthermore, it will help derive provisional guidelines on how patients with these newly defined tumour entities are best treated. These recommendations will be based on the experience of EORTC investigators with chosen treatments and their experience as reported in this data collection report.
This research study is being done to test a participant and caregiver-driven model of follow-up survivorship care,GROW Support (Glioma Specialists Reaching Out With Support), for post-treatment, low grade glioma patients.
This Clinical study is framed in the ALBATROSS Project: Clinically validated decision support system based on pixel level Artificial Intelligent models for deciding treatment in glioblastoma. The prospective multicenter international dataset compiled during the ALBATROSS project will include a cohort up to 300 new patients diagnosed with GB after June 1, 2020. Longitudinal images (T1, T2, T1c, FLAIR, PWI-DSC and DWI at least), complete molecular profiling, primary and secondary lines of treatment and clinical conditions will be included for each patient.
Glioblastoma is a highly aggressive and fatal form of primary malignant brain tumor with limited treatment options. fb-PMT affects a large group of cancer cell signaling pathways and thus may be effective in heterogeneous, treatment-resistant tumors such as Glioblastoma. fb-PMT also is actively transported across the blood-brain barrier into the brain. This study is being conducted to determine the dose level for further clinical development of fb-PMT to treat recurrent Glioblastoma.
The phase 1b study is aimed at determining the pediatric recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Infigratinib. The phase 2 study will evaluate efficacy and safety of infigratinib.
The purpose of this research study is to see if investigators can predict how brain functioning changes after radiation treatment based on PET scans and blood tests. Most participants experience at least mild decreases in their memory or attention after radiation therapy. Investigators hope that PET scans, lumbar puncture, and blood tests might help investigators predict who might have larger changes in their brain function after radiation.
Patients with brain tumours experience a loss of independence, which may occur suddenly or gradually. Communication with the patient may be rapidly impaired, due to impaired alertness, language and/or neurocognitive disorders. In addition to these clinical symptoms, there is a high level of anxiety and depression in this population due to the severity of the diagnosis, with a major impact on the patients' quality of life. In this study, we are mainly interested in the proportion of this population with communication disorders where speech therapy is important In order to better take into account anxiety, which is often difficult to verbalise due to communication problems, sophrology can be proposed as an alternative to psychological support, which is often too complicated or inappropriate. After having noted positive feedback from patients after joint speech therapy and sophrology treatment, we wish to evaluate the interest of coupling sophrology treatment for patients with glial tumours requiring speech therapy. Our hypothesis is that this association would improve the level of anxiety, the quality of life and have a positive impact on the patient's speech therapy.
This Study was designed to collect a series of patients with gliomas which were involved in language related cortex to analyze difference accuracy of language related cortex localization between BOLD-fMRI and ZOOMit-fMRI.
