Filter by:The 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO) is a mitochondrial protein that is weakly expressed in the healthy brain. However, there is an increase in the expression of TSPO in glial tumors. It is even associated with a higher malignancy and a shorter survival of patients. Among the different TSPO ligands, the most commonly used tracers in PET imaging are [18F]DPA-714 and 18F-GE180. We hypothesize that [18F]DPA-714 PET could improve the current performance for tumor grade definition in vivo, which is a major issue for the therapeutic management of gliomas.
This research is being conducted to see if patients diagnosed with high grade gliomas can adhere to the supplemented High-Fat Low-Carbohydrate (sHFLC) + KetoPhyt diet, and to see how this diet might affect cancer cells in the bloodstream. This diet is experimental and is not routinely prescribed for patients with high-grade gliomas. The results of this study may be used to support larger studies investigating possible anti-tumor affects of the sHFLC + KetoPhyt diet.
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.
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.
This study aims to look at how BAY 2402234 responds in body in patients with recurrent glioma.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MT-201-GBM (pp65CMV antigen monocytes) that will be administered to patients newly diagnosed with a type of brain tumor called glioblastoma (GBM) that has an unmethylated MGMT (O[6]-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase) (MGMT) gene promoter.
This phase I trial investigates the side effects and effectiveness of chemotherapy followed by a donor (allogeneic) stem cell transplant when given to patients with high grade brain cancer. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine, thiotepa, etoposide, melphalan, and rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin, 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. Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into a patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make more healthy cells and platelets and may help destroy any remaining cancer cells.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CAR-T cell immunotherapy in treating with GD2 positive glioma patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate any preliminary evidence of anticancer activity of pembrolizumab combined with either pemetrexed or abemaciclib when used following surgery and before standard therapy with radiation and temozolomide in patients with newly diagnosed high grade glioma. Additional aims of the study are to: - Find out the side effects (good and bad) of pembrolizumab combined with pemetrexed or abemaciclib; - • Evaluate tumor characteristics by collecting brain tumor tissue samples. - Measure the amount of pembrolizumab, pemetrexed, and/or abemaciclib that gets in the body by collecting blood and cerebrospinal fluid. - Look at biomarkers (biochemical features that can be used to measure the progress of disease or the effects of a drug) in blood and cerebrospinal fluid if available.
The primary aim of this study is to determine the presence of gemcitabine in childhood diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) (previously classified as diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma [DIPG]) after systemic treatment with the drug.
