Filter by:This is an open label, single arm, prospective, and pilot study. Eligible patients will be enrolled after acquiring the signed informed consent and then will receive the treatment of re-RT combined with FUS (FUS + re-RT) on an outpatient basis. The re-RT in FUS + re-RT treatment will include fractioned stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treatment (FUS + SRS) or conventional radiotherapy (cRT) treatment (FUS + cRT). The treatment of SRS or cRT treatment given to patients is determined by the investigator depending on the volume and location of the treatment region.
This is a first-in-human, open label, multicenter study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and the preliminary antitumor activity of TAS2940 in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who are not candidates for approved or available therapies.
Patients will receive a vaccine called SurVaxM on this study. While vaccines are usually thought of as ways to prevent diseases, vaccines can also be used to treat cancer. SurVaxM is designed to tell the body's immune system to look for tumor cells that express a protein called survivin and destroy them. The survivin protein can be found on up to 95% of glioblastomas and other types of cancer but is not found in normal cells. If the body's immune system knows to destroy cells that express survivin, it may help to control tumor growth and recurrence. SurVaxM will be mixed with Montanide ISA 51 before it is given. Montanide ISA 51 is an ingredient that helps create a stronger immune response in people, which helps the vaccine work better. This study has two phases: Priming and Maintenance. During the Priming Phase, patients will get one dose of SurVaxM combined with Montanide ISA 51 through a subcutaneous injection (a shot under the skin) at the start of the study and every 2 weeks for 6 weeks (for a total of 4 doses). At the same time that patients get the SurVaxM/Montanide ISA 51 injection, they will also get a second subcutaneous injection of a medicine called sargramostim. Sargramostim is given close to the SurVaxM//Montanide ISA 51 injection and works to stimulate the immune system to help the SurVaxM/Montanide ISA 51 work more effectively. If a patient completes the Priming Phase without severe side effects and his or her disease stays the same or improves, he or she can continue to the Maintenance Phase. During the Maintenance Phase, the patient will get a SurVaxM/Montanide ISA 51 dose along with a sargramostim dose about every 8 weeks for up to two years. After a patient finishes the study treatment, the doctor and study team will continue to follow his/her condition and watch for side effects up to 3 years following the last dose of SurVaxM/Montanide ISA 51. Patients will be seen in clinic every 3 months during the follow-up period.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety/tolerability/feasibility of pembrolizumab and radiation therapy before surgical resection in patients with recurrent glioblastoma as defined by treatment-related AEs and the number of patients who do not necessitate a delay in surgical resection, and to assess overall survival. The secondary objectives are to assess progression free survival, and to assess the T cell clonality, CD8 T cell activation and Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocyte (TIL) score after treatment
Patient education plays an essential role in patient-centered care as it enhances patient satisfaction and information comprehension. However, about 40-80% of the information patients receive from healthcare professionals is forgotten and about half of the information patients remember is incorrect. To give informed consent, patients must be able to understand and recall the discussed information correctly. This is especially important in brain tumor patients, in which different treatment options determine outcome and risks. The goal of treatment in brain tumors is resection as completely as possible, without damaging healthy brain tissue. To this end, patients must understand the complex relation of the tumor to healthy brain tissue. This relation is different in each patient and three-dimensional (3D) in nature. Current two-dimensional visual tools lack the ability to properly display these complex 3D relations. In this study, we will investigate the effect of the use of 3D models in patient education, taking into account patient specific factors that might act as confounders. We will conduct a case control, multi-center study in the Radboud University Medical Center (Radboudumc) Maastricht University Medical Center (MUMC). Patients will be enrolled in the control group until inclusion for the control group is completed (n=30), after which patients will be enrolled in the intervention group (n=30). Patients will be cognitively tested using the Amsterdam Cognition Scale (ACS). After the consultation with their neurosurgeon, patients will be asked to fill out two questionnaires, consisting of two parts (patient experiences and information recall), one week apart.
Addition of Anlotinib Hydrochloride to the Stupp Regimen Versus the Stupp Regimen Alone for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma.Take PFS as the main evaluation index, the purpose is to evaluate its effectiveness
This Phase 0 surgical window of opportunity trial seeks to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) properties of an FDA-approved proprotein convertase/ kexin type 9 serine protease inhibitor (PCSK9i) in patients with primary and recurrent World Health Organization (WHO) grade IV malignant glioma. The investigators intend to evaluate whether a clinically licensed PCSK9i called evolocumab (also known as Repatha) can be repurposed as a potential immunotherapeutic for high grade glioma by testing its ability to access the intracranial space. The primary objective is to evaluate whether evolocumab crosses the blood brain barrier (BBB) and is measurable in the resected tumor specimens of patients with primary and recurrent high grade glioma or glioblastoma.
TMZ is a standard therapy for GBM. The study will demonstrate that Daratumumab can collaborate with TMZ to enhance the cytotoxicity against GBM cells. Collectively, the preclinical data along with existing in vivo studies by others provides the rationale for therapeutic targeting of CD38 in GBM and its microenvironment. Daratumumab is commercially available, is safe and well tolerated when combined with alkylating chemotherapy, radiation therapy and has attained therapeutic CSF levels. Thus, the addition of Daratumumab to the frontline treatment regimen of GBM can potentially have a significant clinical benefit. Approximately 16 subjects will be enrolled in this trial. Up to 6 will be enrolled in the phase I part and 10 to 13 in the phase II part to come up with a total of 16 patients with 2 phases combined.
Multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase 1/2 study on the safety and efficacy of the combination of NMS-03305293 and temozolomide (TMZ) in adult patients with diffuse gliomas (Phase 1) and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wild type glioblastoma (Phase 2) at first relapse.
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are the most prevalent malignant tumor in central nervous system. At recurrence, no clear standard-of-care therapy is agreed for recurrent GBM (rGBM) and median overall survival is estimated to rarely exceed 6-9 months with effective therapies. Neoadjuvant therapy with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibodies were confirmed to be helpful to extend survival in rGBM. Vaccine, dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with glioblastoma stem-like cell (GSC) antigens (GSC-DCV), could extend survival for GBM patients in our previous clinical study (PMID: 30159779). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficiency of using the neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 antibody (Carilizumab) plus DC vaccine (GSC-DCV) in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
