This is a randomized, two-arm, open-label, phase 0 trial to assess intratumoral pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of niraparib in subjects with progressive IDH1 or IDH2 mutant glioma. - This research study involves an experimental treatment called Niraparib.
This research is being done to see how effective the drug niraparib is against cancer that has metastasized to the central nervous system (CNS). - This research study involves the study drug niraparib.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of intravenously infused nitroglycerin on the incidence of the cardio-respiratory side effects during the intra-arterial chemotherapy for retinoblastoma in pediatric patients. The intra-arterial chemotherapy at the ophthalmic artery is an important treatment option for retinoblastoma. However, the cardio-respiratory side effects (sudden onset of bradycardia, hypotension, a severe decrease in the compliance of lung, hypoxia) occasionally occurs during catheter manipulation in the ophthalmic artery. One of the purported mechanisms of cardio-respiratory side effects is vagal...
The goal of this interventional phase III clinical trial is to evaluate objective intracranial response rate (iORR) after a treatment with total cranial radiation therapy plus concomitant transdermal nitroglycerin (NTG) addition or total cranial radiation therapy only in patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer with brain metastases and EGFR mutation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Determine progression-free survival (PFS) to CNS and overall survival (OS). Evaluate and compare the quality of life (QoL) of patients during and after treatment. Evaluate the cognitive function of patients before, during and after...
This is an open-label, non-randomised, phase II, multicenter clinical trial. 71 stage IV or recurrent, non-small cell lung cancer patients with synchronous brain metastases will be enrolled in this trial to evaluate the efficacy of Nivolumab plus Ipilimumab plus two cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy as first line treatment.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of nivolumab when given together with multi-fraction stereotactic radiosurgery and to see how well they work with or without ipilimumab in treating patients with grade II-III meningioma that has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal ...
The current study assesses the tolerability and efficacy of combination therapy with PD-1 (nivolumab) and pan-RAF-kinase (Tovorafenib) inhibition for the treatment of children and young adults with craniopharyngioma.
Patients with advanced melanoma are, amongst others, currently treated with nivolumab monotherapy or with nivolumab and ipilimumab followed by nivolumab. Even though registration studies administered nivolumab in a 3 mg/kg 2 weekly scheme, currently, nivolumab monotherapy is either administered in a 240 mg 2-weekly scheme or in a 6 mg/kg or 480 mg 4-weekly scheme. With the current dosing regimen, steady-state is achieved after approximately 5 to 6 months, whereas a tumour response is usually observed earlier in patients with metastatic melanoma. Moreover, PD-1 receptor occupancy is almost saturated above doses of 0.3 mg/kg, or at ...
Background: Gliomas are the most common malignant brain tumors. Some have certain changes (mutations) in the genes IDH1 or IDH2. If there are a high number of mutations in a tumor, it is called hypermutator phenotype (HMP). The drug nivolumab helps the immune system fight cancer. Researchers think it can be more effective in patients with IDH1 or IDH2 mutated gliomas with HMP. They will test gliomas with and without HMP. Objectives: To see if nivolumab stops tumor growth and prolongs the time that the tumor is controlled. Eligibility: Adults 18 years or older with IDH1 or IDH2 mutated gliomas ...
This is a Phase 1 study with Phase 2 expansion cohort. Phase 1 will assess the safety and tolerability of universal donor TGFβi NK Cell in combination with irinotecan, temozolomide, and dinituximab. The phase 2 of the study will estimate the response to treatment.
