Filter by:This study aims to evaluate the role of Regorafenib in prolonging the overall survival of glioblastoma multiforme patients who progressed after surgery and Stupp regimen with or without bevacizumab.
This study is for newly diagnosed WHO Grade IV malignant glioma patients to determine whether an investigational drug known as marizomib (MRZ) will improve the treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients by delaying the growth of the cancer, reducing the size of the tumor, and/or improving survival. Marizomib (MRZ) is being added to standard-of-care treatments of radiotherapy (RT), temozolomide (TMZ), and Optune.
Systematic retrospective medical chart and medical imaging file review of all patients receiving brain MRI for the follow-up of glioblastoma.
Single-agent, open-label, multi-center sequential dose escalation and expansion study of BAL101553, administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion over 48 hours to adults with advanced or recurrent solid tumors or recurrent glioblastoma.
The present study proposes a new and potentially superior clinical approach to Optune™ therapy of selected glioblastoma patients. The approach is based on combining TTFields with targeted surgical skull remodeling, such as minor craniectomy or a distribution of burr holes, designed for the individual patient. Pre-clinical modeling results suggest that such procedures may enhance the induced electrical field strength by up to ~100% and thereby potentially improve the clinical outcome of treated patients to a significant extent. The study is an open label phase 1 clinical pilot experiment designed to investigate feasibility, safety and efficacy of the concept. Fifteen patients with first recurrence of glioblastoma will be included in the trial. All patients will receive TTFields therapy with targeted craniotomy and best physician's choice chemotherapy.
Glioblastoma face an increased risk of venous or arterial thromboembolism. Furthermore, the most frequent immune cells in glioblastoma are tumor associated macrophages, which find theirself in an anti-inflammatory (M2) phenotype. Increased conjugates between circulating platelets and monocytes reflect an pro-inflammatory status.
This early phase I trial studies the how well fluorodeoxyglucose F-18 (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging works in diagnosing patients with confirmed or suspected glioblastoma. Diagnostic procedures, such as FDG PET, may help find and diagnose glioblastoma.
This is a two-part Phase I add-on clinical trial in newly diagnosed glioblastoma or GBM. By "add-on" what is meant is that the experimental intravenous therapy, RRx-001, is combined or "added on" to standard of care. In newly diagnosed GBM standard of care consists of radiotherapy + temozolomide (TMZ) for 6 weeks followed (after a 4-6 weeks break) by maintenance TMZ given until the tumor progresses or worsens. By "maintenance" therapy what is meant is that TMZ is given less frequently to prolong or extend the time during which the tumor remains stable. G-FORCE-1 will be conducted in two parts; in the first part of the study (Dose Escalation, Part A) patients will be entered or assigned sequentially (that is consecutively) to gradually escalating or increasing doses of RRx-001 after patients have been entered on the previous dose until such time as it is no longer tolerated. At each dose level, a separate cohort or small group of at least 3 evaluable patients will be treated. RRx-001 will be administered by intravenous infusion (in other words, by slow injection in the veins) over 30-45 minutes once weekly during radiotherapy for 6 weeks followed by the FDA-approved chemotherapy, temozolomide (TMZ) alone for up to 6 months or longer. In the second part of this study (Part B), new groups or cohorts of patients will receive RRx-001 at the dose established in Part A by intravenous infusion over 30-45 minutes once weekly during radiotherapy for 6 weeks. Then, after a 4-6 weeks break, each cohort will receive increasing doses of RRx-001 and temozolomide (in other words, a double dose escalation) to establish an acceptable safety and activity window, in other words, a dose range that is relatively free of toxicity as well as active against the tumor, although the primary purpose of this study is to assess or evaluate safety. The reason or rationale to "add on" RRx-001 to radiotherapy and TMZ, which is described in more detail below on this page, is as follows: RRx-001 is a radiosensitizer and a chemosensitizer, which means that experimentally it increases the activity of radiation and chemotherapy in tumors. In addition, in other ongoing clinical trials, patients have experienced minimal toxicity or side effects with RRx-001 alone and also in combination with radiation in the brain; therefore, the hope is that RRx-001 will synergize or combine well with radiotherapy and TMZ in GBM without adding toxicity
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of intra-tumor and interstitial therapy with hBMP4 in increasing doses in patients with progressive and/or multiple recurrent Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter study in approximately 52 adults with primary (de novo) GB that has recurred or progressed (first or second recurrence, including this recurrence) after treatment(s) including surgery and radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy and following discontinuation of any previous standard or investigational lines of therapy.
