Filter by:This is a non-randomized two-part study of MK-4827 given with temozolomide in participants with advanced cancer. In Part A of the study, the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MK-4827 when combined with temozolomide will be found by increasing the MK-4827 dose level in successive cohorts. In Part B of the study, participants with advanced glioblastoma multiforme and advanced melanoma will be enrolled to further evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of the MK-4827 + temozolomide combination.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and clinical efficacy of intradermal vaccination with autologous RNA-modified dendritic cells (DCs) - engineered to express the WT1 protein - in patients with limited spread metastatic solid tumors, i.e. breast cancers, glioblastoma grade IV, sarcomas, malignant mesothelioma and colorectal tumors. Based on the results of our previously performed phase I study with autologous WT1 mRNA-transfected DC, the investigators hypothesize that the vaccination with DC will be well-tolerated and will result in an increase in WT1-specific CD8+ T cell responses.
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as lomustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known which regimen of bevacizumab given together with lomustine is most effective in treating patients with glioblastoma multiforme in first recurrence. PURPOSE: The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether the addition of bevacizumab to lomustine improves overall survival (OS) in patients with recurrent glioblastoma compared to treatment with lomustine alone.
TVI-Brain-1 is an experimental treatment that takes advantage of the fact that your body can produce immune cells, called 'killer' white blood cells that have the ability to kill large numbers of the cancer cells that are present in your body. TVI-Brain-1 is designed to generate large numbers of those 'killer' white blood cells and to deliver those cells into your body so that they can kill your cancer cells.
This, international, multi-center, Phase 2 study of verubulin will be conducted in patients with newly diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM). The study will be conducted in two parts. Part A is an open-label dose finding study that will determine the safety and tolerability of verubulin in combination with standard treatment. Part B is a randomized open-label study that will investigate progression-free survival and overall survival of patients receiving verubulin, at the dose determined in Part A, in combination with standard treatment versus standard treatment alone.
This is a phase 2, multicenter study to determine the safety and efficacy of ICT-107 in treating a type of brain tumor called Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM). ICT-107 is an immunotherapy in which the patient's immune response will be stimulated to kill the tumor cells. Patients must be newly diagnosed with GBM and not yet received chemoradiation. Some of the patient's white blood cells (WBC) will be removed and cultured in a laboratory with purified antigens, similar to those on GBM cells. The patient's own WBC/DC that have been exposed to the tumor antigens will then be given back to the patient as a vaccine over several months. The goal is for the ICT-107 vaccine to stimulate the patient's immune response to kill the remaining GBM tumor cells after surgery and chemotherapy.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. O6-benzylguanine may help temozolomide work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Giving genetically modified peripheral blood stem cells during or after treatment may prevent side effects caused by chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies O6-benzylguanine and temozolomide in combination with genetically modified peripheral blood stem cells in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme.
The primary objective of this Phase II study is to evaluate the progression-free survival at 6 months in adult subjects with a first recurrence of Glioblastoma Multiforme who are treated with MEDI-575.
The goal of this Phase I portion of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of bevacizumab with or without vorinostat, that can be given to patients with malignant gliomas. The safety of these drug combinations will also be studied. The goal of this Phase II part of this clinical research study is to learn if bevacizumab when given with or without vorinostat can help to control malignant gliomas. The safety of these drug combinations will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of VB-111 in patients with Relapsed Glioblastoma Multiforme.
