Filter by:The purpose of this research is to study the safety and efficacy of Camrelizumab treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastomas.
This study will investigate whether or not intensified radiation therapy adapted during the radiation treatment course to high-risk, treatment-resistant tumor regions will improve overall survival in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) compared to conventional chemoradiotherapy.
Glioblastomas are the most common and most aggressive primary brain tumors in adults. The prognosis is poor despite multimodal therapy with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Therefore, novel treatments are urgently needed. L19TNF is a fully human fusion protein consisting of human tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α fused to the L19 antibody in scFv format, specific to the extra-domain B of fibronectin. TNF not only induces apoptosis or necrosis in certain target cells, but also exerts inflammation and immunity. L19TNF selectively delivers TNF to the tumor site to spare normal tissues from undesired toxicity. Preclinical experiments with L19TNF have demonstrated tumor growth retardation in various mouse tumor models including models of glioma.
The primary objective will be to demonstrate the manufacturing feasibility and safety, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of RNA-LP vaccines in (Stratum 1) adult patients with newly diagnosed GBM (MGMT unmethylated). Funding Source - FDA OOPD
In this pilot study, the study evaluators will evaluate the ability of positron emission tomography (PET) with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG PET) and the computed tomography (CT) perfusion scanner, individually and combined, to predict the effectiveness of anti-angiogenic treatment.
This is an open-label single arm study. All patients will receive the investigational agent.
This phase I trial investigates the side effects and best dose of Peposertib, and to see how well it works in combination with radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma or gliosarcoma. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Peposertib may further stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving Peposertib with radiation therapy may work better than radiation therapy alone in treating patients with glioblastoma or gliosarcoma.
Currently,6 cycles of Temozolomide adjuvant chemotherapy after concurrent radiotherapy and Temozolomide chemotherapy(STUPP regimen)for newly diagnosed postoperative GBM can increase the 2-year and 5-year overall survival rates of patients to 26.5% and 9.8%, respectively. However, most patients are still unable to avoid tumor recurrence and death.Anlotinib is an efficient multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that effectively block the migration and proliferation of endothelial cells and reduce tumor microvascular density by targeting VEGFRs, FGFRs, PDGFRs. It has been proved to be safe and effective in advanced lung cancer(including NSCLC,SCLC)after second-line standard chemotherapy failure,and advanced soft tissue sarcoma after anthracycline-containing chemotherapy failure.Here, we prepared to evaluate whether the combination of dose-dense Temozolomide and Anlotinib can preferably improved survival of the first recurrent or progressive GBM after STUPP regimen.
The primary objective of this Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation, and exploratory study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability profile (establish the maximum-tolerated dose) and evaluate the occurrence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) following single weekly or multiple-day weekly dose regimens of single-agent, oral ONC206 in patients with recurrent, primary central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms.
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common brain tumor in adults. The strikingly poor survival for patients with GBM (average survival 14-16 months following diagnosis) is due in part to limited early detection methods and an absence of effective therapeutic options. The study proposed would establish important evidence for the use of Health Canada approved drugs such as amantadine as a safe, effective and affordable way to monitor GBM. The method is based on the overproduction of a key enzyme in GBM cells called spermine/ spermidine n-acetyl transferase (SSAT1). The increased SSAT1 expression in GBM results in increased metabolism of the drug which is detected in the blood or urine of patients with GBM. The levels of acetyl-amantadine captured will be correlated with the tumor burden as seen on the MRIs of these patients. Thus, the study aims to determine the usefulness of amantadine as a diagnostic biomarker for GBM.
