This phase II trial studies how well lutathera works in treating patients with meningioma that cannot be treated with surgery (inoperable) and is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive) after external beam radiation therapy. Lutathera is a radioactive drug administered in the vein that is designed to target and kill tumor cells. The goal of this study is to determine whether this drug is safe and effective in treating meningiomas that progress after radiation treatment. WHO Grade I and Cohort WHO II/III cohorts will be evaluated.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Lutathera (177Lu-DOTATATE) in patients with progressive or recurrent High-Grade Central Nervous System (CNS) tumors and meningiomas that demonstrate uptake on DOTATATE PET. The drug will be given intravenously once every 8 weeks for a total of up to 4 doses over 8 months in patients aged 4 to <12 years (Phase I) or 12 to </=39 years (Phase II) to test its safety and efficacy, respectively.

This pilot trial studies whether a procedure called lymphovenous bypass would prevent lymphedema (arm swelling) in patients with inflammatory breast cancer or non-inflammatory breast cancer that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes or melanoma. The lymphovenous bypass procedure creates a path for lymphatic fluid to flow away from the arms. It is usually done after a diagnosis of lymphedema. In this study, giving lymphovenous bypass before underarm lymph node surgery may help prevent lymphedema from forming.
Single-centre, first-in-man phase I/II trial to demonstrate safety and efficacy of MAGE-C2/HLA-A2 TCR T cells (MC2 TCR T cells) in advanced melanoma (MEL) and head-and-neck carcinoma (HNSCC).
this study will investigate the relationship between tumor stiffness and adhesion in gliomas using MRE. By utilizing preoperative MRE and Intraoperative neuronavigation, followed by comprehensive molecular pathology analysis, we aim to explore the correlation of tumor stiffness and adhesion with molecular and genetic characteristics of gliomas. Additionally, the predictive value of MRE in terms of pathological staging and prognosis will be determined. This research may pave the way for improved clinical decision-making, personalized treatment approaches, and more accurate clinical trials for glioma patients.
This clinical trial uses a type of imaging scan called magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to study brain tumor biology in patients with glioblastoma that can be removed by surgery (resectable). Malignant gliomas are the second leading cause of cancer mortality in people under the age of 35 in the United States. Glioblastoma is a type of malignant glioma with very poor patient prognosis. There are currently only about 3 drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of glioblastoma, one of them being administration of bevacizumab, which is very expensive. It is the most widely used treatment for glioblastoma with dramatic results. However, previous clinical...
This study is an ambispective cohort study to evaluate the displacement and deformation of large brain metastases (BM) treated with magnetic resonance imaging-guided adaptive radiotherapy (MRIgART)
The researchers think that the use of advanced MR imaging may help people with this disease, because it may better predict areas within a malignant glioma (brain tumor) that are at a high risk of recurring. WeThe reserchers are doing this study to see whether this advanced imaging is a safe treatment that causes few or mild side effects in people with brain tumors.
This study is a single-center observational clinical study, which evaluates the diagnostic value of magnetoencephalography (MEG) in the diagnosis of neurodevelopmental diseases in children, such as the localization of epileptic foci and brain functional areas, intracranial tumors, cerebrovascular diseases, autism, mental retardation, and neuropsychiatric disorders.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well obinutuzumab works as maintenance treatment in patients with central nervous system lymphoma who have achieved the disappearance of all signs of cancer in response to treatment (complete response) or a decrease in the size of a tumor, or in the extent of cancer in the body, in response to treatment (partial response). Immunotherapy with obinutuzumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
