Background: Glioma is a type of brain cancer. Some of these tumors have gene mutations. These mutations can cause a substance called 2-HG to build up in the brain. This makes the tumors more aggressive. Researchers want to better understand 2-HG buildup in the brain. They hope this can help them design better ways to test for gliomas. Objective: To monitor the level of 2-HG in the brains of people with gliomas that have mutations in the IDH1 or IDH2 genes. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with gliomas with mutations in the IDH1 or IDH2 genes Design: Participants will be screened...
This is a multi-centered, radiation dose escalation, open, exploratory, Phase 1/2a clinical trial on the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic characteristics of BNCT in patients with recurrent high-grade gliomas. The Phase I clinical study is to explore the adequate radiation dose level of BNCT based on confirmation of the maximum tolerated dose (radiation dose) of BNCT in patients with recurrent high-grade gliomas and characterize the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics. To evaluate the primary objective of tolerability, subject population with history of exposure to a similar treatment recurrent high-grade glioma who received...
This is a First-In-Human (FIH) study of [68Ga]-FF58 to characterize the imaging properties, safety, biodistribution and dosimetry properties of [68Ga]-FF58 in adults with relapsed or refractory (r/r) glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), breast cancer (BC) that has metastasized to the brain, gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEA) or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) expected to overexpress alpha-v beta 3 (αvβ3) and alpha-v beta 5 (αvβ5) integrins.
This is a multi-site, global, open-label study that includes a phase 1b evaluation of elacestrant in combination with abemaciclib in women and men with with or without brain metastases from ER-positive, HER-2 negative breast cancer. Phase 1b is designed to select the recommended phase 2 dose and will be followed by a phase 2 evaluation of elacestrant in combination with abemaciclib in patients with active brain metastases from ER-positive, HER-2 negative breast cancer.
This is a Phase I study that examines the rate of dose limiting side effects in patients with malignant astrocytoma treated with combination acetazolamide (ACZ) and temozolomide (TMZ). Eligible patients must have histologically proven newly diagnosed, O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) methylated WHO grade III or IV astrocytoma and be planning to undergo treatment with standard adjuvant TMZ (after completing treatment with TMZ and ionizing radiation (IR)). During this study, patients will receive daily oral ACZ with TMZ. During each cycle, ACZ will be started on the day of TMZ initiation and continued for a total of 21...
Among the mechanisms responsible for resistance to immunotherapy, metabolism seems to play a major role. A better understanding of tumor metabolism appears to be absolutely necessary in order to propose efficient therapeutic alternatives to target tumor cells without exerting a deleterious effect on the cells responsible for the anti-tumor immune response. The main objective is to evaluate metabolism modulations in melanoma cells extracted from metastases of patients sensitive and resistant to immunotherapies (anti-PD1 or anti-PD1+anti-CTLA4).
This is a phase II prospective, randomized, double-blind, longitudinal study evaluating whether the administration of aspirin can delay or slow tumor growth and maintain or improve hearing in VS patients.
This study will test the use of comprehensive ablative radiation therapy (CART), with the immunotherapy drug avelumab, in people with Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) that has progressed after treatment and cannot be removed with surgery. The study researchers want to find out if CART works well when combined with avelumab.
This study consists of 2 parts: Dose Escalation Part 1 and Dose Expansion Part 2. The Dose Escalation Part 1 will evaluate the safety and tolerability of Avelumab in combination with Lenvatinib and determine the recommended Avelumab and Lenvatinib dose for expansion. Dose Expansion Part 2 will assess the efficacy of Avelumab in combination with Lenvatinib by Progression-free Survival in participants with pre-defined primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors.
Primary Objective: To determine the response rate (RR) of metastatic or locally advanced pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma to axitinib administered daily. Secondary Objectives: - Determine the progression-free survival. - In an exploratory manner examine the extent of activation of the VEGFR pathway in pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma using a semi-quantitative immunohistochemistry assay and examine the relationship with response to therapy. - Perform pharmacogenomics analyses of drug metabolism and transport proteins through germline DNA examination.
