Filter by:This study is being conducted to help determine whether β-elemene as maintain treatment for complete remission patients of newly diagnosed malignant gliomas following standard treatment, is able to delay tumor growth, or impact how long people with newly diagnosed high-grade glioma.
Contrast-enhanced MRI is the most common way for evaluating neuroepithelial tumor grading and monitoring for tumor recurrence,but the ability to predict tumor behavior remains very limited.In this study, the investigators will use multi-b-value diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI),three-dimensional arterial spin labeling(3D-ASL) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI imaging(DCE) to evaluate neuroepithelial tumor grading and monitor for tumor recurrence.
This registry aims to collect clinical and radiologic information including detailed clinical, conventional MR and advanced MR imaging data of patients with brain gliomas. Advanced MR imaging may include diffusion-weighted imaging, perfusion-weighted imaging (dynamic susceptibility contrast, arterial spin labeling, dynamic contrast enhancement), and chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) imaging. This registry will describe course of disease and long-term outcomes of brain gliomas.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CAR-T cell immunotherapy in patients with MUC1 positive relapsed or refractory solid tumor.
The cost of particle therapy (PT) are considerably higher than conventional radiotherapy (RT) with photons. Considering potential dosimetric advantages of PT, it is necessary to determine if PT are more cost-effective than photons per indication regarding quality of life, survival, and progression free survival. Given the lack of evidence for the benefit of particle therapy in relevant cases, investigators proposed an in silico trial to investigate to what extend proton therapy decrease the amount of irradiated normal tissue and, consequently, the risk of side effects in the surrounding normal tissue as well as the risk of secondary tumors. Given validated dose-response curves and/or NTCP models, a 10% lower mean dose of proton therapy on normal tissue compared to photon therapy should result in at least a 20% lower risk of side effects.
In this research study the investigators want to learn more about the effects, both good and bad, when the study drug Ribociclib is given after radiation therapy. The investigators are asking people to be in this research study that have been newly diagnosed with a high grade glioma, and the tumor has been screened for the Rb1 protein, and have recently finished radiation therapy. Patients with a DIPG or a Bi-thalamic high grade glioma do not need to have tumor tissue screened for the Rb1 protein but do need to have finished radiation therapy. Tumor cells grow and divide quickly. In normal cells, there are proteins called cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK 4 and 6) that control cell division. Another protein Rb1 also controls cell division and works to stop cells from dividing so they do not become cancer cells. But in cancer, the CDK 4 and 6 proteins are out of control making the cells divide and grow quickly. The study drug, ribociclib stops the CDK 4 and 6 proteins. When the CDK 4 and 6 proteins are stopped, the normal Rb1 protein can now work to slow cell growth. For patients with HGG, to be in this study tumor tissue must have a normal Rb1 protein. The researchers think that if the study drug is given soon after radiation therapy, it may help improve the effect of the radiation in stopping the tumor from growing. The study drug, Ribociclib is considered investigational as it has not yet been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration. The study drug has been tested in children and adults with cancer in prior research studies.
This is a multi-center, open label trial of combination therapy with Toca 511 and ascending doses of Toca FC added to the SOC for newly diagnosed HGG.
This trial develops a non invasive diagnostic approach of IDH1 mutated gliomas combining mutation detection from free plasmatic DNA, D-2HG dosage in urine samples, and D-2HG detection by Brain Spectro MRI. In group 1 (25 patients), patients with presumed grade II-III gliomas candidate to surgery will undergo spectro MRI, plasma, urine dosages. Results will then be confronted to tumor mutational status and D-2HG. In group 2 (15 patients), patients with known IDH1 mutation will undergo spectro MRI, plasma, urine dosages overtime in order to correlate results with the response to treatment.
This study seeks to evaluate the tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and safety of ABT-414 in Japanese participants with newly diagnosed and recurrent, World Health Organization (WHO) grade III or IV malignant glioma.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of terameprocol in treating patients with high-grade glioma that has come back. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as terameprocol, 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.
