To collect and preserve glioblastoma tissue during standard of care tumor resection surgery and blood for future molecular and genetic testing. Tissue for research will be collected from three different regions within the same tumor to study how these regions differ in their structure, DNA, and RNA and also to compare the data obtained from this testing to imaging data found in the medical record. The goal of this study is to help us better understand what the glioblastoma tumor tissue looks like and how it functions. This understanding can lead to new therapies for the treatment of glioblastoma in the future.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about physical activity's effect on health in people who have had surgery of a non-functioning pituitary adenoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Do physical activity increase quality of life? - Do physical activity increase general health, cardiovascular fitness, self-efficacy and muscle strength and reduce fatigue and cardiovascular risk profile? Participants will at the start of the the study, at 6 months follow up and 12 months follow up: - Fill out health surveys - Perform a cycling test, hand strength test, chair stand test and wear and accelerometer for a week - Undergo a dual...
This research study is studying several investigational drugs as a possible treatment for Glioblastoma (GBM). The drugs involved in this study are : - Abemaciclib - Temozolomide (temodar) - Neratinib - CC115 - QBS10072S
A study to determine the feasibility and safety of individualized cancer stem cell targeted therapy based on high-throughput functional profiling of FDA/EMA-approved drugs in patients with GBM that has recurred or progressed following standards-of-care (RT, TMZ).
The current study will use a new treatment approach based on the molecular characteristics of each participant's tumor. The study will test the feasibility of performing real-time drug screening on tissue taken during surgery, and of having a specialized tumor board assign a treatment plan based on the results of this screening and genomic sequencing. The aim of this trial is to allow every child and young adult with medulloblastoma to receive the most effective and least toxic therapies currently available, and will pave the way for improved understanding and treatment of these tumors in the future.
The modern strategy of therapy of high-risk neuroblastoma, stage 4, consists of three phases - induction, consolidation and post- consolidation. Still current approaches demonstrates insufficient levels of ORR (overall response rate), OS (overall survival) and EFS (event free survival). NB-HR-2023 (neuroblastoma high risk) protocol aimed to investigate tolerability and toxicity and potential improvement of ORR, OS and EFS by overcoming of tumor heterogeneous drug resistance using the synergistic interaction of cytostatic and immunobiological agents in the induction. Protocol include the combination of standard chemotherapy (N5 and N6) with anti-GD2 MAB, which is potentially...
The study aims to induce plastic reorganization by a therapeutic protocol to increase the rate of gross total resection (GTR) and to optimize the oncological result.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and effectiveness of infliximab compared to steroids for the treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced colitis (ICI colitis) in patients with stage III/IV skin cancer. The main questions this study aims to answer are: - How many patients treated with infliximab experience steroid-free disease resolution after 7 weeks? - How many patients treated with steroids experience steroid-free disease resolution after 7 weeks?
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of infliximab and vedolizumab and to see how well they work in treating inflammation of the colon (colitis) caused by immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in patients with cancer of the genital and urinary organs (genitourinary) or melanoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as infliximab or vedolizumab, may help to treat immunotherapy induced colitis/diarrhea. This study may help to identify the optimal treatment strategy for immune checkpoint inhibitor-related colitis in patients with genitourinary cancer or melanoma.
Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NENs) represent the most common NeuroEndocrin Neoplasms (NEN) site, comprising 55-70% of all NENs, and they are extremely heterogeneous diseases in terms of clinical presentation and aggressiveness. In recent years there has been a significant increase in the incidence of such neoplasms, partially due to incidental findings of small indolent lesions. However, the behavior of GEP- NEN is variable and mainly dictated by some factors as age, sex, histologic grade, primary site, and stage at diagnosis1. As for grade which is defined by the proliferative activity as measured by mitotic count or ki67 staining, some 75% of neoplasms...
