Filter by:The FeelFit study aims to assess the effectiveness of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) in improving self-reported physical fitness in adult brain tumor patients during periods of stable disease, as compared to a waiting-list control group. Furthermore, several secondary and exploratory outcomes will be evaluated. The study is part of the GRIP (GuaRding quality survivorshiP) project, which aims to improve quality of life in brain tumor patients.
This is a health services intervention study aimed at understanding the impact of intensive multi-disciplinary care compared with standard care on patient-reported symptom outcomes and prognostic awareness in patients with brain metastases.
Resection of glioblastoma in or near functional brain tissue is challenging because of the proximity of important structures to the tumor site. To pursue maximal resection in a safe manner, mapping methods have been developed to test for motor and language function during the operation. Previous evidence suggests that these techniques are beneficial for maximum safe resection in newly diagnosed grade 2-4 astrocytoma, grade 2-3 oligodendroglioma, and recently, glioblastoma. However, their effects in recurrent glioblastoma are still poorly understood. The aim of this study, therefore, is to compare the effects of awake mapping and asleep mapping with no mapping in resections for recurrent glioblastoma. This study is an international, multicenter, prospective 3-arm cohort study of observational nature. Recurrent glioblastoma patients will be operated with mapping or no mapping techniques with a 1:1 ratio. Primary endpoints are: 1) proportion of patients with NIHSS (National Institute of Health Stroke Scale) deterioration at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery and 2) residual tumor volume of the contrast-enhancing and non-contrast-enhancing part as assessed by a neuroradiologist on postoperative contrast MRI scans. Secondary endpoints are: 1) overall survival (OS), 2) progression-free survival (PFS), 4) health-related quality of life (HRQoL) at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery, and 4) frequency and severity of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in each arm. Estimated total duration of the study is 5 years. Patient inclusion is 4 years, follow-up is 1 year. The study will be carried out by the centers affiliated with the European and North American Consortium and Registry for Intraoperative Mapping (ENCRAM).
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE To establish feasibility and acceptability of diagnostic brain MRI in young children for specified indications using an upright MRI system without sedation or anaesthesia. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES To establish how young children who undergo brain MRI using upright MRI view the experience To establish how parents / carers of young children who undergo brain MRI using the upright MRI view the experience for their child and for themselves. To establish how image quality compares between brain MRI using the upright MRI scanner and the standard MRI scanner used in clinical practice.

Exploratory Purpose - To identify mechanisms of adaptive resistance using Guardant 360 panel. To conduct NGS using Guardant 360 panel in serial plasma collection before treatment and at the time of progression. - To identify the profiling of interstitial lung disease (ILD) after treatment of T-DXd. To perform the baseline and follow-up PFT. To perform high-resolution chest CT to evaluate for ILD by radiologic expert. To evaluate cytokine level in serially collected plasma (every 6 weeks for the first 24 weeks and then every 12 weeks). The investigators recommend doing one HRCT at baseline and a second one in the event of ILD. 3. Background Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2, ERBB2)-activating mutations occur in 2% of lung cancers as a distinct molecular target. HER2-targeted therapy is standard of care for HER2-mutation positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd, DS-8201, Enhertu) is a novel antibody drug conjugate that is comprised of 3 components: a humanized anti-HER2 IgG1 monoclonal antibody with the same amino acid sequence as trastuzumab; a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload, an exatecan derivative; and a tetrapeptide-based cleavable linker. Recently, T-DXd induced a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of almost 61% and a durable benefit in heavily pre-treated patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer, according to results from the phase II DESTINY-Breast01 trial. In addition, the DESTINY-Gastric trial showed the superiority of T-DXd compared with standard chemotherapy in terms of response rate and progression-free and overall survival in this setting. Altogether, T-DXd received breakthrough therapy designation and orphan drug designation in gastric cancer, and approval for the treatment of advanced HER2-positive breast cancer. Recently, T-DXd showed durable systemic disease control along with CNS response. Ongoing trials are assessing the activity of T-DXd in patients with breast cancer and active brain metastases. T-DXd has been approved in the US for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic NSCLC whose tumours have activating HER2 mutations, as detected by a FDA-approved test, and who have received a prior systemic therapy. The accelerated approval by the FDA was based on the results from the DESTINY-Lung02 Phase II trial. An interim efficacy analysis in a pre-specified patient cohort showed T-DXd (5.4mg/kg) demonstrated a confirmed ORR of 57.7% (n=52; 95% CI 43.2-71.3), as assessed by blinded independent central review, in patients with previously treated unresectable or metastatic non-squamous HER2-mutant NSCLC. Complete responses (CR) were seen in 1.9% of patients and partial responses (PR) in 55.8% of patients with a median DoR of 8.7 months (95% CI 7.1-NE).
This is a single arm phase 2 trial is to evaluate the efficacy of SRS plus adagrasib for the treatment of brain metastases for patients with KRAS G12C-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A total of 30 patients will be enrolled on this study.
The goal of this multi-centre, prospective study is to assess the frequency of asymptomatic brain metastasis in patients with stage II or III Triple Negative or HER2 positive breast cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What proportion of patients with stage II or III Triple Negative or HER2 positive breast cancer have asymptomatic brain metastases identified on a screening contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (or computed tomography when Magnetic resonance is not possible) of the brain? 2. How do patients feel about undergoing brain imaging to screen for asymptomatic Brain metastasis? 3. What clinical and tissue-based biomarkers are associated with asymptomatic detection of Brain metastasis? Participants will undergo a brain imaging, collect one blood sample to perform ctDNA analysis, and fill the Testing Morbidities Index (TMI) after imaging is done. Procedures must take place within one year of initial diagnosis, either prior to or after completion of (neo)-adjuvant systemic therapy.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of hippocampal-sparing WBRT combined with SRS as first-line treatment for SCLC patients with brain metastases.
This is a Phase I/II Study to determine the safety and efficacy of Sacituzumab Govitecan and Zimberelimab with stereotactic radiation (SRS) in participants with metastatic triple negative breast cancer with brain metastases, compared to treatment with Sacituzumab Govitecan alone.
The goal of this interventional phase III clinical trial is to evaluate objective intracranial response rate (iORR) after a treatment with total cranial radiation therapy plus concomitant transdermal nitroglycerin (NTG) addition or total cranial radiation therapy only in patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer with brain metastases and EGFR mutation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Determine progression-free survival (PFS) to CNS and overall survival (OS). Evaluate and compare the quality of life (QoL) of patients during and after treatment. Evaluate the cognitive function of patients before, during and after treatment. Evaluate treatment-associated toxicity to grade adverse treatment events Evaluation of HIF1α, VEGF and ROS1 in peripheral blood before and after nitroglycerin treatment. All participants will have laboratory tests at the beginning and end of radiation therapy. Cranial MRI will be performed prior to treatment and 12 weeks after the end of treatment, then every 16 weeks until intracranial progression. Patients in the interventional group will be given 36 mg patches of transdermal nitroglycerin for 24 hours with a 12-hour rest interval during treatment with radiation therapy. The control group will only receive total cranial radiation therapy at the same doses and with the same schedule.
