Filter by:This study assesses the safety of using tissue autograft of a pedicled temporoparietal fascial (TPF) or pericranial flap into the resection cavity of newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients. The objective of the study is to demonstrate that this surgical technique is safe in a small human cohort of patients with resected newly diagnosed GBM and may improve progression-free survival (PFS).
This is a prospective, non-randomized, observational registry study evaluating a patient-specific ex vivo 3D (EV3D) assay for drug response using a patient's own biopsy or resected tumor tissue for assessing tissue response to therapy in patients with advanced cancers, including ovarian cancer, high-grade gliomas, and high-grade rare tumors.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of APX005M in treating younger patients with primary malignant central nervous system tumor that is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive), or newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. APX005M can trigger activation of B cells, monocytes, and dendritic cells and stimulat cytokine release from lymphocytes and monocytes. APX005M can mediate a direct cytotoxic effect on CD40+ tumor cells.
At present, the investigators want to evaluate safety and efficacy of cell therapy based on Tumor-infiltrating T Lymphocyte (TIL)in glioblastoma. Here, we also constructed a transgenic modified TIL cells, stablely express a high-level full-length PD1 antibody (PD1-TIL cells), which can transduce signals to activate T cells and result in tumor killing. In this study, we design two group patients treated with TIL cells and PD1-TIL cells respectively to determine the safety and efficacy of autologous TILs or genetically modified TILs in patients with glioblastoma.
This is a phase I trial using EGFR Bi-armed Activated T-cells (BATs) in combination with standard of care temozolomide (TMZ) and radiation (RT) in patients with glioblastoma (GBM). The purpose of the study is to determine a safe dose of EGFR BATs when given with standard of care therapy.
The purpose of this Phase 2, open-label, single-arm study is to determine the safety and the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of VAL-083 in combination with a standard of care radiation regimen when used to treat newly diagnosed GBM in patients with unmethylated promoter of the methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (uMGMT) gene. Pharmacokinetic (PK) properties will be explored and tumor responses to treatment will be evaluated.
The primary objective of this study is to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of belzutifan Tablets and/or the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of belzutifan Tablets in patients with advanced solid tumors
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.
Temozolomide (TMZ) is the chemotherapy drug approved by the FDA to increase survival in glioblastoma (GBM) patients beyond surgical resection and radiation therapy alone. Give its activity in astrocytomas, TMZ is commonly used in grade III anaplastic astrocytoma (AA) as well. Both grade III AA and grade IV GBM are high grade gliomas (HGG). The short half-life of this drug and known oscillations in DNA damage repair make it an ideal candidate for chronotherapy. Chronotherapy is the improvement of treatment outcomes by minimizing treatment toxicity and maximizing efficacy through delivery of a medication according to the timing of biological rhythms within a patient. Chronotherapy has improved outcomes through the reduction of side effects and increase in anti-tumor activity for a variety of cancers, but has never been applied to the treatment of gliomas. Based on the preliminary preclinical data for chronotherapeutic TMZ treatment of intracranial glioma xenografts and the success of chronotherapy in the treatment of other cancers, the invesitgators hypothesize that the timing of TMZ treatment will alter its efficacy and toxicity.
Glioblastoma Multiforme is one of the most common, and unfortunately one of the most aggressive brain tumors in adults with most of the patients recurring and dying of the disease with a median survival of 16 months from diagnosis. Current treatment for patients with newly diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is safe maximal surgical resection followed by concomitant conventional Radiotherapy (RT) delivered in 6 weeks + Temozolomide (TMZ) followed by TMZ for 6 to 12 cycles. Recent scientific research has shown that Metformin, a common drug used to treat diabetes mellitus, may improve the results of the treatment in patients with a variety of cancers, such as breast, colon, and prostate cancer. Metformin is an attractive and safe medication to be used in this group of patients because of its very low toxicity. In our center the investigators have been using TMZ for 2 weeks prior to a short course (4 weeks) of RT which equivalent to the standard RT of 6 weeks. Temozolomide is used 2 weeks before RT + TMZ, and this is followed by the 6 to 12 cycles of TMZ. Our results are quiet encouraging with a median survival of 20 months, and acceptable toxicity.
