View clinical trials related to Glioma.
Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about treatment for a type of brain cancer called glioma. This clinical trial is for people with glioma who have been cancer-free for a period of time but their cancer has come back. The primary goals of this clinical trial are the following: - To determine the recommended dose of PCI-24781/Abexinostat with metronomic temozolomide - To evaluate side effects associated with using PCI-24781/Abexinostat with metronomic temozolomide
The purpose of this study is to better define longitudinal genomic alterations in patients with glioblastoma (GBM), and to determine if plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) or cell free DNA (cfDNA) is associated with disease recurrence, survival, tumor characteristics, and/or peripheral immunosuppression.
The primary goal of this Phase I study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of oncolytic adenovirus mediated double suicide-gene therapy in combination with fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery in patients with recurrent high-grade astrocytoma undergoing resection.
This is an open label study of apixaban for venous thromboembolism prevention in patients with newly diagnosed grade 4 glioma.
The 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO) is a mitochondrial protein that is weakly expressed in the healthy brain. However, there is an increase in the expression of TSPO in glial tumors. It is even associated with a higher malignancy and a shorter survival of patients. Among the different TSPO ligands, the most commonly used tracers in PET imaging are [18F]DPA-714 and 18F-GE180. We hypothesize that [18F]DPA-714 PET could improve the current performance for tumor grade definition in vivo, which is a major issue for the therapeutic management of gliomas.
Primary malignant central nervous system (CNS) tumors are the second most common childhood malignancies. Amongst, medulloblastomas are the most common malignant brain tumor of childhood and occur primarily in the cerebellum. According to molecular characteristics, medulloblastomas were classified into four subtypes: WNT, SHH, Group3 and Group4 and different prognosis were noticed between subgroups. Several genetic predispositions related to clinical outcome were also discovered and might influence the treatment of medulloblastomas as novel pharmaceutical targets. This study aims to investigate genetic and cellular profiles of pediatric brain malignancies, mostly medulloblastomas, and other central nervous system tumor based on WGS, RNA-seq, single-cell sequencing and spatial transcriptomics. We also aim to investigate the correlation between genetic characteristics and clinical prognosis.
The goal of this research study is to determine the best dose of CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells for treating participants with glioblastoma. The name of the treatment intervention used in this research study is: -CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells (or Autologous T lymphocytes).
The aim of this observational study is to enable rapid diagnosis of molecular biomarkers in patients during surgery by medical imaging and artificial intelligence models, to help clinicians with strategies to maximize safe resection of gliomas. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To solve the current clinical shortcomings of intraoperative molecular diagnosis, which is time-consuming and complex, and enables rapid and automated molecular diagnosis of glioma, thus providing the possibility of personalized tumor resection plans. 2. To implement a neuro-navigation platform that combines preoperative magnetic resonance images, intraoperative ultrasound signals and intraoperative ultrasound images to address real-time molecular boundary visualisation and molecular diagnosis for glioma, providing an approach to improve glioma treatment. Participants will read an informed consent agreement before surgery and voluntarily decide whether or not to join the experimental group. they will undergo preoperative magnetic resonance imaging, intraoperative ultrasound, and postoperative genotype identification. Their imaging data, genotype data, clinical history data, and pathology data will be used for the experimental study. The data collection process will not interrupt the normal surgical process.
This interventional, clinical pilot-study will initiate and evaluate 68Ga/177Lu-PSMA theranostics in Norway as treatment alternative for patients with recurrent grade 3 and grade 4 gliomas. The main goal is to improve existing diagnostic and therapeutic methods in glioma management, and introduce a novel, well-tolerated radionuclide treatment that possibly can increase the overall survival and quality of life for a patient group that today have very short expected survival and no standard recommended therapy.
Our study considered the relevant immune and inflammatory indices, such as immunoglobulin kappa light chain, TNF, and CD4+ Helper T lymphocyte% in a multi-institutional study with a large patient cohort (n=1282) from the east, northeast, and southeast of China. Our study shed light on the association of peripheral immune system status with prognosis, tumor grade, and subtype of glioma, which can potentially benefit future diagnostic and prognostic processes of glioma given its noninvasive nature. Moreover, the preoperative inflammatory status can be leveraged for timely interventions to reverse the immunosuppressive status of cancer patients and enhance anti-tumour immunity of glioma.
