Filter by:The purpose of this study is to develop and test a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique to see if it can be used to tell the difference between tumor growth from worsening of cancer and growth from the effects of treatment in participants who have brain tumors treated with radiation therapy called stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS).
This study is for patients who have had surgery to remove brain metastasis and are planned to have stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) after their brain surgery. It will be optional for patients to have a pre-surgery 18F-Fluciclovine PET/CT scan. The goal of the study is to determine whether a specific imaging agent, known as 18F-Fluciclovine, will help physicians evaluate the extent of surgery and determine if there is any visible tumor above what MRI alone can identify as well as improve the physicians' ability to detect recurring disease. This agent (18F-Fluciclovine) is investigational for the imaging of brain metastases.
This research study will evaluate how well brain metastases associated with HER-2 positive breast cancer can be controlled using a type of radiation known as stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) when combined with three therapeutic agents, tucatinib, capecitabine, and trastuzumab. The combined use of SRS with the three drugs is considered investigational.
This study is a single-arm, multicenter, open-labeled clinical study of UTD1 combined with Capecitabine in metastatic HER2-negative breast cancaner patients with brain metastases. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of UDT1 combined with capecitabine in metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer patients with brain metastases.
A single-arm pilot study, to assess the efficacy of cerebellar IMRT combined with cerebral SRS in patients with brain metastases that are predominantly in the posterior fossa - a novel treatment approach
This study is a a single-arm, single-center, open-label, prospective phase II trial. The aim of this phase II study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Furmonertinib in patients with EGFR mutation (including 19del or 21L858R or T790M) in advanced NSCLC with brain metastases.
Standard Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is based on the excitation of hydrogen nuclei that are presents in water molecules, which abundance in human body allows for obtention of superior contrast. However, assessing the presence of other molecules than water in tissues is also of great clinical interest to probe metabolites related to physiological body function and pathological conditions. Chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) allow to overcome some limitations of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) by exploiting chemical properties of the targeted molecule through a continuous process of re-saturation and exchange, and thus detecting it with increased sensitivity, from two orders of magnitude. Moreover, CEST technique is based on imaging sequences and can therefore benefit from well-known fast acquisition strategies, as well as improved spatial resolution.
Cerebral metastases are common intracranial tumor, its incidence increased year by year, in recent years, although the whole brain radiation therapy, surgical resection, stereotactic radiosurgery treatment, targeted drugs, and other comprehensive treatment in patients with symptoms of mitigation and the extension of survival has played a positive role, but due to individual differences, treatment in patients with poor compliance were a lot of factors, Further treatment of brain metastases after conventional treatment requires the assistance and cooperation of clinical multi-disciplines. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous Ommaya capsule injection of autologous bi-dimensional specific T cells in the treatment of glioma and combined with pemetrexed in the treatment of brain/meningeal metastasis. Using translational research techniques and means, to find molecular indicators related to clinical prognosis and outcome, establish the clinical use standard of this holistic treatment technology, and popularize it in multi-centers.
This study investigates fluorine-18-AlphaVBeta6-BP ([18F]-αvβ6-BP) as a Positron Emission (PET) imaging agent in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases. Investigators hypothesize that [18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/Computed Tomography (CT) is a sensitive tool for disease assessment in patients with metastatic NSCLC, including those with brain metastases.
The purpose of the study is to see if stereotactic radiosurgery/SRS is an effective treatment for people with a new diagnosis of brain metastases from small cell lung cancer/SCLC.
