Filter by:Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is notoriously difficult to treat, with current therapies often extending life by only a few months. The standard treatment involves surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy with Temozolomide (TMZ). The efficacy of TMZ, however, is significantly enhanced when the tumor's o6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) gene is methylated. Recent studies, such as the NOA-09 trial, have suggested that adding Lomustine (LOM) to TMZ could improve outcomes for patients with this specific tumor profile. Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that the addition of LOM to the TMZ regimen will lead to significantly improved survival rates among patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who have a methylated MGMT promoter compared to those receiving only TMZ. Treatment Plans: The study will randomly assign participants to two groups: - Control Group: Standard treatment with TMZ during and after radiation therapy. - Experimental Group: TMZ combined with LOM, starting on the first day of radiation therapy. Outcome Measures: The primary outcome measure will be survival. Other outcomes will include progression-free survival (time from randomization until tumor progression or death), safety profiles (adverse effects of the treatments), and quality of life measures as well as neurocognitive outcomes.
This is a randomized, open-label, phase 2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of oral ropidoxuridine as a radiation-sensitizing agent in patients with newly diagnosed wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase glioblastoma with an unmethylated O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase promoter, undergoing standard 60 Gy radiotherapy.
This phase II trial studies whether different imaging techniques can provide additional and more accurate information than the usual approach for assessing the activity of tumors in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The usual approach for this currently is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This study is trying to learn more about the meaning of changes in MRI scans after treatment, as while the appearance of some of these changes may reflect progressing tumor, some may be due the treatment. Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)-MRIs, along with positron emission tomography (PET) and/or magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy, may help doctors tell which changes are a reflection of the treatment and which changes may be due to progressing tumor.
The study aims at: 1. Perform a multilayer analysis relying on tight integration of in-depth multi-omics approaches with clinical data to discover immune markers, with attention to age and sex differences, predicting prognosis and defining key life/environmental elements, to guide AI-driven personalised treatments and ensure improved care and QoL of glioblastoma patients. 2. To deepen glioblastoma knowledge through the study of glioblastoma stem cell cultures and to assess the sensitivity of glioblastoma stem cell cultures to a number of chemotherapeutics in different experimental conditions. 3. To create a comprehensive, stakeholder-generated guidelines for the ethical use of patient data for artificial intelligence-assisted prediction systems in glioblastoma, including an online, easily accessible patient information brochure to increase patient empowerment in the field.
About 75% of CNS malignant tumors are classified as gliomas and the IDH-wildtype glioblastoma (GBM) represents the most aggressive form among CNS malignancies. This is a nationwide single-center phase II drug clinical trial with an approximate duration of 32 months. The clinical trial will be single-arm to evaluate the biological activity and effects of metformin in combination with TMZ in patients with GBM.
The goal of this phase II randomized clinical trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of Elemene plus Stupp Protocol (the new protocol) and Stupp Protocol alone (the standard protocol) in patients with newly-diagnosed glioblastomas (ndGBMs). The main questions to answer are: - Whether the new treatment protocol (Elemene plus Stupp Protocol) is clinically safe for ndGBM patients. - Whether the new treatment protocol (Elemene plus Stupp Protocol) brings better survival benefits for ndGBM patients compared to the standard-of-care Stupp Protocol. Study participants will be enrolled in 5 hospitals in China and randomly assigned to receive either the new protocol or the standard protocol. The overall survival (OS) rate in the 12th month, the progression-free survival (PFS) rate in the 6th month, OS, PFS, and adverse events assessed by the CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) will be evaluated for all patients.
Tailored approaches targeting crucial oncogenes and pathways have shown successful results in a number of cancer types and offer exciting perspective in neuro-oncology. IDH (Isocitrate dehydrogenase) wild-type (IDHwt) glioblastoma (GBM) (10%) present a unique and homogenous energetic metabolism which is specifically dependent on the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) rather than on the aerobic glycolysis. OXPHOS+ IDHwt GBMs overexpress mitochondrial markers and can be specifically inhibited by mitochondrial inhibitors in vitro and in vivo. Metformin is an oral inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I and is a widely used drug in diabetic and non-diabetic patients, safe and well tolerated in association with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Basing on drastic effect, the investigators have observed in vivo (reduction of >50% of tumor growth) and hypothesize that metformin could be specifically efficient to treat up-front patients affected by OXPHOS+ GBM, in association with the standard first-line treatment with radiotherapy and temozolomide (RT-TMZ). The investigators set up a dedicated molecular analysis including RNA assay and expression of OXPHOS markers for formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumors (FFPE), which allows to detect OXPHOS+ GBM at diagnosis. Here a phase II, open label, non-randomized multicenter trial including five French neurooncology centers (H. Foch-Suresnes, Pitié-Salpêtrière-Paris, Saint Louis-Paris, Lyon, Marseille) and one in Italy (Istituto Besta, Milan) is proposed. Newly diagnosed IDH wild-type GBM patients with the OXPHOS+ signature will be eligible for inclusion in this trial. The investigators expect to screen 640 patients and to include 64 patients over a period of 24 months with 24 months of follow-up.
