Filter by:This study proposes to analyze data from intraoperative ECoG recordings acquired during wakefulness interventions in order to identify the connection networks involved in cognitive functions. This study also proposes to correlate the ECoG data with the imaging data and to analyze the disturbances of the electrophysiological signals induced by the cortical and subcortical brain lesions: this will make it possible to establish a more detailed mapping of the tumor areas and to compare disturbances recorded to those recorded in healthy areas. Thus, this approach should make it possible to improve the quality of excision of glial lesions located in eloquent areas, while reducing the risk of neurological sequelae and thus improve the survival and quality of life of patients.
HGG comprises diffuse midline gliomas (DMG), including diffuse infiltrating brainstem glioma (DIPG), characterised by histone gene mutations, as well as non-DM HGGs mainly in non-midline supratentorial areas, with distinct molecular abnormalities. First-line treatment comprises surgery when doable (non-DM HGGs), and radiotherapy in all cases. Chemotherapy or other drugs in clinical trials may be added during and/or after radiotherapy depending on the HGG subtype. The recurrence rate is nevertheless high in all paediatric and adolescent HGGs. If the time interval between the end of first-line radiotherapy and relapse is long enough, re-irradiation often provides good palliation of symptoms, delays disease progression, improves quality of life and has minimal and manageable toxicity. Nevertheless, strategies to increase efficacy without increasing toxicity in the treatment of recurrent paediatric HGG are much needed. AsiDNA™ is a DNA repair inhibitor that increases the vulnerability of tumour cells to irradiation without increasing toxicity in healthy tissues. Its novel mechanism of action, based on perturbation of the DNA damage recognition steps in DNA repair, makes its activity specific to tumour cells. Intravenous administration of AsiDNA is currently being investigated in adults with advanced solid tumours. The MTD was not reached during the escalating dose study on the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of AsiDNA administered as a 1-hour infusion, however an optimal dose range (400-600 mg) was identified for further development, based on the favourable safety and PK profiles. Preclinical studies on AsiDNA added to radiotherapy have shown increased survival and no increase in short- or long-term toxicity due to the high doses of irradiation. The study will provide paediatric patients who have recurrent HGG with early access to innovation, even during the early drug development stage in adults.
The purpose of this study is to determine what effects (good and bad) niraparib has on patients with recurrent brain cancer.
Glioma patients with history of venous thromboembolism (VTE) treated on low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and who decided with their physician to convert to Apixaban (oral drug) will be enrolled into our study and will collect data regarding recurrent VTE and Intracranial hemorrhage and the incidence of these events.
This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, dose-exploration, combination/expansion study, which will start by evaluating the safety and tolerability of NTX-301, an oral DNMT1 inhibitor, as a monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumours, who have failed treatment with available therapies known to be active for treatment of their corresponding disease. It will then explore the safety and tolerability of NTX-301 in combination with platinum-based therapy in patients with ovarian and bladder cancer. Optionally, the safety and tolerability of NTX-301 in combination with Temozolomide (TMZ) in patients with Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutated high-grade glioma will also be assessed.
This is a 2-part multicenter Phase 1b study designed to test icapamespib in patients with recurrent brain lesions. Part 1 of the trial will be a standard 3 by 3 dose escalation design where different doses are examined. Part 2 will be a dose expansion cohort to further evaluate the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). The RP2D is defined as the dose level recommended for further clinical study, or the highest dose tested.
The purpose of this study is to first, in Part A, assess the safety, tolerability and drug levels of Bempegaldesleukin (BEMPEG) in combination with nivolumab and then, in Part B, to estimate the preliminary efficacy in children, adolescents and young adults with recurrent or treatment-resistant cancer.
This phase IV trial studies the side effects and how well perampanel works in reducing seizure frequency in patients with high-grade glioma and focal epilepsy. Perampanel is a drug used to treat seizures. Giving perampanel together with other anti-seizure drugs may work better in reducing seizure frequency in patients with high-grade glioma and focal epilepsy compared to alternate anti-seizure drugs alone.
The primary goal of this Phase 1 study is to determine if a new investigational drug, OS2966, when delivered directly to the brain of adult participants with recurrent/progressive high-grade glioma (HGG) is safe and well tolerated. OS2966 is a therapeutic antibody blocking a cell surface receptor governing fundamental biological processes that allow cancer cells to grow, spread and become resistant to cancer treatment. Despite availability of new promising cancer treatments, successful treatment of HGG has been limited by the presence of the brain's protective blood brain barrier (BBB). The BBB is made up of tightly knit cells that block entry of several substances including cancer treatments. To overcome this obstacle, a technique called convection-enhanced-delivery (CED) will be utilized to deliver OS2966 directly to the site of disease. Convection-enhanced delivery involves placement of one or more catheters into the brain tumor and tumor-infiltrated brain in order to slowly pump a therapy into the tissue. To be eligible for this study participants must require surgical resection of their recurrent HGG.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether use of an ultra-high sensitivity camera with enhanced imaging technology can be used during surgery to detect areas of brain tissue affected by diffuse glioma, a type of brain cancer.
