Filter by:The study evaluates safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics at recommended phase II dose (RP2D) and preliminary antitumor activity of Niraparib + dd-TMZ "one week on, one week off" in patients affected by recurrent GBM IDH wild-type and recurrent IDH mutant (WHO grade 2-4) gliomas. The treatment will be administered until progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, consent withdrawal, lost to follow-up or death. The entire study is expected to last approximately 40 months.
As a part of molecular imaging, many PET tracers have been investigated in this regard. Those include 18F-FDG being glucose analogue, 18F-FLT representing nucleoside metabolism, and 18F-FDOPA, 18F-FET, 11C-MET as amino acids analogues. Among these, 18F-FDG is the most commonly used tracer due to its broader use and easy availability. However, high physiological uptake in the brain is a significant limitation. The main limitation of other tracers is the need for onsite cyclotrons for their production, making their availability difficult. So, the search for an ideal modality is still ongoing, and the latest addition to this search is a radio ligand labeled Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA). It is a new but potentially promising radiotracer, currently showing its utility in different malignancies. Investigators, therefore, aim to identify whether Ga-68 PSMA PET-CT has better diagnostic accuracy in the detection of recurrent gliomas than conventional imaging modalities.
The changes of target and organs at risk in patients with high-grade glioma during concurrent chemoradiotherapy were evaluated by MRI image between radiotherapy fractions.
The purpose of this study is to determine how safe and how well-tolerated the experimental study drug, C134 is when re-administered into the brain where the tumor is located.
Rationale: Proton beam therapy has recently become available for the treatment of patients with WHO grade 2 and 3 IDH mutated (IDHmt) glioma in the Netherlands. The dose distributions associated with proton therapy have substantially reduced the volume of the normal brain irradiated with low and intermediate radiotherapy doses. Whether this impacts rates of progressive disease or safety issues and how this compares with a similar population treated with photon therapy is currently unknown. Objective: To investigate short term outcomes after proton and photon radiotherapy for grade 2 and 3 IDHmt glioma.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the performance characteristics of O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (FET) PET in differentiating pseudoprogression from tumour progression in patients with equivocal conventional imaging and determine the sensitivity and specificity of [18F]FET-PET in delineating disease. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - whether 18F-FET-PET will demonstrate high diagnostic accuracy to detect true tumour progression - whether we can optimise the threshold cut-offs for TBRmax and other relevant parameters in discriminating pseudoprogression and disease progression Participants will undergo a limited 18F-FET PET/CT of the brain in SGH.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and feasibility of administering repeated doses of neural stem cell (NSC)-conditionally replicative adenovirus (CRAd)-survivin (S)-protomer (p)k7, in persons with newly diagnosed high grade glioma. The main questions it aims to answer are: - whether multiple doses of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 are safe and feasible - how multiple doses of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 influence tumor response, overall survival, time to tumor progression, and quality of life. Participants will: - undergo a biopsy to confirm high grade glioma, then receive the first dose of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 into the brain - about 2 weeks later, undergo surgery to remove the tumor and receive the second dose of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 into the brain - start chemoradiation about 2 weeks after surgery, then about 2 weeks later, receive the 3rd dose of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 into the brain - four weeks later, at the end of chemoradiation, receive a fourth dose of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 into the brain. - after radiation is finished, receive standard of care chemotherapy and tumor-treating fields. Two additional doses of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 will be given every 4 weeks. Every other patient enrolled will receive N-acetylcysteine amide (NACA), from registration until the day prior to surgery and the second dose of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7.
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the study drug olutasidenib to treat newly diagnosed pediatric and young adult patients with a high-grade glioma (HGG) harboring an IDH1 mutation. The main question the study aims to answer is whether the combination of olutasidenib and temozolomide (TMZ) can prolong the life of patients diagnosed with an IDH-mutant HGG.
This phase II trial tests the effect of decreasing (tapering) doses of dexamethasone on steroid side effects in patients after surgery to remove (craniotomy) a brain tumor. Steroids are the gold standard post-surgery treatment to reduce swelling (edema) at the surgical site to reduce neurological symptoms. Although, corticosteroids reduce edema, they have side effects including high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and can impair wound healing. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response. It also works to treat other conditions by reducing swelling and redness. Tapering doses dexamethasone may decrease steroid side effects without increasing the risk of edema in patients with brain tumors after a craniotomy.
This is a Phase 1 open label study designed to assess the safety and tolerability of the oncolytic herpes simplex virus 1 (oHSV1) study drug, MVR-C5252, administered intratumorally by convection-enhanced delivery (CED) in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma. Once the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is established in the dose escalation portion of the trial, a dose expansion cohort at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wildtype recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) will evaluate preliminary efficacy of the study drug.
