Filter by:Growing evidence of Tranexamic Acid (TXA) being used to reduce blood loss and blood transfusions in various guidelines. However, the adverse effects of TXA especially seizure has always been a problem of concern, especially in neurosurgery. Therefore, this study aims to provide a scientific evidence for the safety of TXA in supratentorial meningiomas resection patients.
This Phase 3 open-label single-arm study is designed to investigate the safety, diagnostic performance, and clinical usefulness of Gleolan for the real time detection and visualization of meningiomas during tumor resection surgery. The study is planned to run for 15 months with individual study participation lasting for approximately 2 months.
9-ING-41 has anti-cancer clinical activity with no significant toxicity in adult patients. This Phase 1 study will study its efficacy in paediatric patients with advanced malignancies.
Approximately 90% of children with malignant brain tumors that have recurred or relapsed after receiving conventional therapy will die of disease. Despite this terrible and frustrating outcome, continued treatment of this population remains fundamental to improving cure rates. Studying this relapsed population will help unearth clues to why conventional therapy fails and how cancers continue to resist modern advances. Moreover, improvements in the treatment of this relapsed population will lead to improvements in upfront therapy and reduce the chance of relapse for all. Novel therapy and, more importantly, novel approaches are sorely needed. This trial proposes a new approach that evaluates rational combination therapies of novel agents based on tumor type and molecular characteristics of these diseases. The investigators hypothesize that the use of two predictably active drugs (a doublet) will increase the chance of clinical efficacy. The purpose of this trial is to perform a limited dose escalation study of multiple doublets to evaluate the safety and tolerability of these combinations followed by a small expansion cohort to detect preliminary efficacy. In addition, a more extensive and robust molecular analysis of all the participant samples will be performed as part of the trial such that we can refine the molecular classification and better inform on potential response to therapy. In this manner the tolerability of combinations can be evaluated on a small but relevant population and the chance of detecting antitumor activity is potentially increased. Furthermore, the goal of the complementary molecular characterization will be to eventually match the therapy with better predictive biomarkers. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: - To determine the safety and tolerability and estimate the maximum tolerated dose/recommended phase 2 dose (MTD/RP2D) of combination treatment by stratum. - To characterize the pharmacokinetics of combination treatment by stratum. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE: - To estimate the rate and duration of objective response and progression free survival (PFS) by stratum.
This research study is studying a drug as a possible treatment for High Grade Meningioma. The drug involved in this study is an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab
In this research study the researchers want to learn more about the effects (both good and bad) the study drug selumetinib has on participants with neurofibromatosis type II (NF2) related tumor. The researchers are asking patients with NF2 related tumors to be in the study, because their hearing has decreased and/or their NF2 related tumor has started to grow. The goals of this study are: - Determine if selumetinib will stop NF2 related tumors from growing - Measure the changes in hearing after receiving selumetinib for 6 months. - Determine if selumetinib improves how participants feel (physically and emotionally) and how participants can perform daily activities. - Examine tumor tissue, if available, in a laboratory to see if NF2 related tumors have targets of selumetinib.
This research study is studying a chemotherapy as a possible treatment for Meningiomas (recurrent). The study intervention involved in this study is: --AZD2014 (vistusertib)
This is a prospective observational trial consisting of robotic multisession radiosurgery (CyberKnife ®) for large and medium size and/or located at critical site benign intracranial meningiomas.
In the proposed trial, patients will be administered ribociclib prior to surgical resection of their tumor. Patients will be enrolled in time-intervals sequentially (non-randomized). All patients will be orally-administered 5 doses of LEE011 (900 mg/d) with the final dose occurring at one of 3 intervals before brain tumor resection.
Traditional treatment options for optic nerve sheath meningiomas (ONSM) include observation, surgery and radiotherapy, but to date none of these has become the clear treatment of choice. The role of the radiotherapy remained uncertain because of the concern about radiation related optic neuropathy In the recent past two large series of patients treated with a fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy confirmed these positive experiences in tumour control and greatly reduced the concern about the treatment related toxicity. Under the light of successful meningiomas treatment, radiosurgery, had proposed as a treatment option. Single session, high conformality, frame based radiosurgery systems are seldom if ever proposed as ONSMs treatment due to the known dose tolerance of the optic nerve. The first experience in ONSMs treatment with multisession radiosurgery treatment was quite promising. The aim of the present study is to prospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of multisession radiosurgery in ONSMs treatment. In order to evaluate multisession radiosurgery 50 patients will be enrolled in the present study. All patients will be treated by using multisession radiosurgery, with 5 fractions of 5 Gy each to a total dose of 25 Gy prescribed to the 75-85% isodose line. Patients were evaluated both for tumor growth control and visual function.
