Patients with advanced HER2+ breast cancer on maintenance trastuzumab/pertuzumab or T-DM1 with 1st or 2nd intracranial disease event (brain metastases) and stable extracranial disease will be enrolled. They will receive local therapy with stereotactic radiosurgery ± surgical resection if indicated followed by enrollment. Patients will continue standard of care trastuzumab/pertuzumab or T-DM1 with the addition of tucatinib. Hormone receptor positive patients requiring endocrine therapy should continue. Study treatment will continue until disease progression or intolerable side effects. Patients on trial with extracranial disease ...
The objective of the observation is to collect and document data on treatment strategies for secondary central nervous system lymphoma (SCNSL) in routine clinical practice, whether obtained in the context of clinical trials or outside of trials. In particular, the following questions will be specified: - What therapeutic approaches are being pursued? - What is the clinical outcome of the various treatment options? - What is the frequency of serious adverse events with each therapeutic approach?
The study is being conducted to determine if a same-day, low-dose intravenous (into a vein) injection of indocyanine green (ICG) (FDA-approved dye) being detected by using an imaging system can be a useful tool in identifying and differentiating tumor tissue from normal tissues.
Currently, treatment with a specific anti-epileptic drug mainly depends on the physicians' preference, as there are no studies supporting the use of one specific anticonvulsant in glioma patients. The overall aim of this randomized controlled trial is to directly compare the effectiveness of treatment with levetiracetam or valproic acid in glioma patients with a first seizure.
This is a single-arm and open-label study to explore X+MTX+Ritu (ATG-010, Methotrexate, Rituximab) regimen in Relapse refractory PCNSL patients. Approximately 30 patients will be enrolled in the study. In dose escalation phase, patients with Relapse refractory PCNSL will be treated with X+MTX+Ritu regimen and escalating doses of oral ATG-010 weekly in a 3+3 design. Then a phase 2 expansion at the recommended dose level based on phase 1b trial will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability.
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, exploratory study initiated by investigator to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Selinexor (S) combined with pomalidomide (P) and dexamethasone (D) in the treatment of multiple myeloma with CNS involvement.
This phase II trial studies the effect of selpercatinib given before surgery in treating patients with thyroid cancer whose tumors have RET alterations (changes in the genetic material [deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)]). Selpercatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving selpercatinib before surgery may help shrink the tumors and help control the disease.
This study is to prospectively compare the standard supine (control group) and the semi-sitting position (head elevation of 30°; intervention group) in endoscopic endonasal pituitary surgery.
The study involves enrollment of patients with sebaceous carcinoma, Merkel's carcinoma, Porocarcinoma, Melanoma, and squamous cell Ca of the ocular surface and adnexa both primary and relapsed after surgical and/or radiation-chemotherapy treatment at the Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli, IRCCS. The study will last 9 years: 1 year will be devoted to the first phase of the study. Patient enrollment will continue for an additional 3 years, and 5 years will be devoted overall to patient follow-up so that survival outcomes at 1-3 and 5 years can be assessed in a congruent number of patients. A preliminary analysis of the...
The registry of this study was subjected to patients who were radiologically diagnosed with a non-malignant brain tumor at Seoul National University Hospital since 2001, and who have had magnetic resonance (MR) re-examination after first MR exam or will be re-examined because it was determined that immediate treatment would not be needed at the first visit to the hospital. In all MRs taken by patients, the date of imaging and the volume of the tumor are measured, and we aim to establish a natural growth history for non-malignant brain tumors.
