Filter by: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).
The primary objective of this phase II trial is to determine the efficacy and safety of ONC201, an oral small molecule imipridone DRD2 antagonist, in adult subjects with recurrent high-grade glioma. This study will test the research hypothesis that histone H3 K27M mutation sensitizes to oral administration of ONC201 in gliomas.
The purpose of this research study is to see if people can produce ketones in their blood with the modified Atkins diet. Modified Atkins diet is a diet that produces ketones in your blood by restricting carbohydrates to <20 grams per day. Ketones are substances that are produced in the blood when fat is being broken down. Ketones may help radiation work better and may starve your tumor because it is thought that some brain tumors can not use ketones to grow and can only use sugar or glucose to grow.
This is a study to determine the efficacy, safety and clinical benefit (how well the drugs works), of the pharmaceutical compositions in Nasal Spray NST-4G for the treatment of brain tumors( Recurrent Glioblastoma, Gliosarcoma,Anaplastic Gliomas, Previously Treated). All drugs target the inhibition of the growth factors and neo-angiogenesis as one the main reasons for the growth of the tumor. The purpose of the Nasal Spray NST-4G study is to determine the safety and tolerability in order to establish the best dose level to be used in future studies.
MRI elastography detects the movement of tissues in the human body and monitors their response to mechanical stress in order to reveal their mechanical properties, like palpation. These depend on the structure of the tissues, their biological conditions and possible conditions. This non-invasive technique allows exploration of deep organs such as the brain that the doctor's hand can not reach. MRI elastography may prove to be an essential tool for study, diagnosis, staging and therapeutic monitoring of brain diseases. Neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Creutzfeldt-Jakobes) and cancers largely modify the mechanical properties of the affected tissues. For a first evaluation of the technique, we are interested in glial tumors representing half of the intracranial tumors in adults (incidence: 5 cases per 100 000 inhabitants), the second cancer in children and the third cause of death in l Young adult.
Studying QoL in patients DLGG receiving TMZ is complex because of the multiples interactions between tumor characteristics, neurocognitive functioning, treatments, environment and psychopathological context in which these patients experience symptoms. It is, however, important to accurately evaluate these aspects in consideration of the young age, generally preserved QoL at the time of diagnosis, possible implications of the disease on the professional (DLGG patients are often still active), social and familial domain, and relatively long survival of these patients. In the absence of a curative treatment for DLGG, preserving patients' QoL is indeed a major goal.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CAR-T cell immunotherapy in treating with GD2 positive glioma patients.
This phase II trial studies how well intensity-modulated stereotactic radiation therapy works in treating patients with grade II-IV glioma. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue.
This Protocol is a pilot, clinical interventional study to selected patients between five and fourteen years of both sexes, carriers of the diagnosis of glioma brain stem and high grade recurrent in the central nervous system tumors, in whom there has been no response to conventional-based surgery/radiation/chemotherapy treatment or whose location does not allow treatment with conventional measures, and that already have an indication for a neurosurgical palliative procedure. It will be a close pharmacovigilance on possible adverse effects related to the nanomaterial based on the profile of cisplatin (chemotherapeutic platinum derivative), since documented toxicity data are not counted for NPt-Ca. Quality of life will be documented with PedsQL Cancer Module© and tumor size by magnetic resonance brain images.
This trial studies how well a couple-based mind body program works in improving spiritual, psychosocial, and physical quality of life in patients with high or low grade glioma or tumors that have spread to the brain and their partners. A couple-based mind body program may help to improve spiritual well-being, sleep difficulties, depressive symptoms, and overall quality of life in patients with glioma or tumors that have spread to the brain and their partners.
