Filter by:A Phase 1/2a Open Label Multicenter, Non-Randomized, Trial to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of CYNK-001 in Combination with Recombinant Human Interleukin-2 in Adults with Recurrent Resection Eligible IDH1 wild-type Glioblastoma. For phase I portion, the study objectives to assess the safety and feasibility CYNK-001 in combination with rhIL2 of Intravenous (IV) infusion and Intracavitary (IC) administrations following tumor resection and to establish a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and a Recommended Phase 2a Dose (RP2D) for IV and IC CYNK-001 administration. For Phase IIa, to evaluate efficacy and safety of CYNK-001 administrations in recurrent GBM as measured by Progression Free Survival at 6 months (PFS6M)
This study will find the maximum safe dose (MSD) or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CYNK-001 which are NK cells derived from human placental CD34+ cells and culture-expanded. CYNK-001 cells will be given after lymphodepleting chemotherapy for the systemic cohort (IV) (intravenous). The intratumoral cohort (IT) will not be giving lymphodepletion. The safety of this treatment will be evaluated, and researchers want to learn if NK cells will help in treating recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.
This study is a clinical trial to assess the efficacy and confirm the safety of intratumoral inoculation of G207 (an experimental virus therapy) combined with a single 5 Gy dose of radiation in recurrent/progressive pediatric high-grade gliomas
This pilot early phase I trial studies the side effects of vaccine therapy in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back. Vaccines made from a person's white blood cells mixed with tumor proteins from another person's glioblastoma tumors may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving vaccine therapy may work better in treating patients with glioblastoma.
Background: The brain is separated from the rest of the blood stream by the blood-brain barrier. This is like a filter that protects the brain. But is also a challenge when medicines need to get into the brain. Researchers want to give the new drug LB100 to people before brain tumor surgery. They will measure how much LB100 is in the blood and how much gets into the brain. This may help with the use of LB100 to treat brain tumors in the future. Objective: To see if LB100 can pass into the brain. Eligibility: People at least 18 years old with a brain tumor that requires surgery. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Medical history Blood tests Neurosurgery evaluation Scans Heart tests Tumor sample. This can be from a previous procedure. Participants will have their brain surgery at the Clinical Center. Participants will get a dose of the study drug through a plastic tube in a vein for 2 hours during surgery. Participants will have blood taken 7 times in the 8 hours after getting the study drug. Tumor samples will be taken during surgery. Participants will have a heart test after getting the study drug. Sticky pads on the skin will measure electrical activity of the heart. Two-three weeks after leaving the hospital, participants will have a follow-up visit. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. One month after surgery, they will be contacted in person or by phone to see how they are doing.
This phase II trial studies the side effects of autologous dendritic cells pulsed with tumor lysate antigen vaccine and nivolumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back. Vaccines made from a person's tumor cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving dendritic cell-autologous lung tumor vaccine and nivolumab may work better in treating patients with glioblastoma.
Background: A glioblastoma is a tumor in the brain. It is treated with surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. However, most people s tumors come back after therapy. When the tumor grows back, surgery or chemotherapy may not be possible or may no longer work. Repeat radiation therapy or re-irradiation, is an option for treating these tumors when they regrow. Objective: To find out the safety and highest tolerated dose of re-irradiation for people who have recurrent glioblastoma. Eligibility: People ages 18 50 who have glioblastoma that has been treated with radiation but has regrown. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam MRI of the brain: They will lie in a machine that takes pictures of the brain. Participants will have baseline tests before they start therapy. These will include: Blood tests Neuropsychological tests: These test things like memory, attention, and thinking. Quality of life questionnaire Eye and hearing tests Participants will get a CT of the brain prior to radiation start in order to plan the radiation treatment. Once the plan is completed, they will receive radiation once a day Monday Friday for a total of 10 17 treatments. They will lie on their back for about 10 minutes while they get the treatment. Participants will be monitored for side effects. After they finish treatment, participants will have visits 1, 2, and 3 months later. Then they will have them every 2 months for 3 years. These will include: Medical history Physical exam Blood tests MRI of the brain. Quality of life questionnaire Neuropsychological tests (at some visits) After 3 years, participants will be contacted by phone each month.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well bevacizumab with or without radiation therapy works in treating patients with glioblastoma that has returned after a period of improvement. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may block tumor growth by targeting certain cells. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. It is not yet known whether bevacizumab is more effective with or without radiation therapy in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
This randomized phase II study will assess the impact of pre-conditioning on migration and survival among newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) patients who have undergone definitive resection and completed standard temozolomide (TMZ) and radiation treatment, as well as the impact of tetanus pre-conditioning and basiliximab together on survival. After completing standard of care radiotherapy with concurrent TMZ, patients will be randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms: 1). receive cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific dendritic cell (DC) vaccines with unpulsed (not loaded) DC pre-conditioning prior to the 4th vaccine; 2). receive CMV-specific DC vaccines with Tetanus-Diphtheria Toxoid (Td) pre-conditioning prior to the 4th vaccine; 3). receive basiliximab infusions prior to the 1st and 2nd DC vaccines along with Td pre-conditioning prior to the 4th vaccine. A permuted block randomization algorithm using a 1:1:1 allocation ratio will be used to assign patients to a treatment arm. Randomization will be stratified by CMV status (positive, negative), with the assignment to arms I and II being double-blinded. Effective March 2017, randomization to Group III has been terminated.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of azurin-derived cell-penetrating peptide p28 (p28) in treating patients with recurrent or progressive central nervous system tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azurin-derived cell-penetrating peptide p28, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
