In view of the synergistic effects of rituximab, zanubrutinib, and lenalidomide and severe complications caused by current standard chemotherapy regimens in Patients for primary or secondary CNS lymphoma, we intend to conduct a prospective clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of Rituximab, Zanubrutinib in combination with Lenalidomide. Besides, the efficacy of Zanubrutinib or Lenalidomide in maintenance was also compared.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of the new treatment proposed in this study. Conducting a prospective study "CNS-2015" in patients with PDLBCL CNS made it possible to achieve 2-year EFS, DFS and OS of 83%, 83% and 88%, respectively. The presence of early relapses of the disease has now led to the need to find an alternative program for patients with PDLBCL CNS. In the new "CNS-2021" protocol, lenalidomide was included in the R-MPV program in order to intensify the induction stage. In the conditioning regimen, thiotepa was replaced by carmustine, due to its significant CNS bioavailability. In order to possibly prevent early relapses, an anti-PD-1...
This phase I/Ib trial tests the side effects, best dose, tolerability, and effectiveness of RMC-5552 in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent). RMC-5552 is a type of medicine called an mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor. These types of drugs prevent the formation of a specific group of proteins called mTOR. This protein controls cancer cell growth, and the study doctors believe stopping mTOR from forming may help to kill tumor cells.
This is a Phase I study to demonstrate the manufacturing feasibility and safety, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of RNA-LP vaccines in adult patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
The Investigators have demonstrated in preclinical studies that RNA liposomes activate APCs, induce antigen-specific T cell immunity, and can supplant DCs in a cell therapy model for HGG and have shown feasibility and activity of this approach in preclinical models and in canine patients with a spontaneous malignant glioma. In one arm of this study, we will investigate the safety and immunologic activity of RNA-LP vaccines in pediatric patients with recurrent pHGG. The investigators have also shown that intravenous administration of tumor mRNA loaded lipid particles (LPs) localizes primarily to lung, transfect antigen presenting cells (APCs) and lead to an activated T cell...
Patients scheduled for neurovascular interventions may be eligible to have their procedure done robotically.
This trial studies the role of the gut microbiome and effectiveness of a fecal transplant on medication-induced gastrointestinal (GI) complications in patients with melanoma or genitourinary cancer. The gut microbiome (the bacteria and microorganisms that live in the digestive system) may affect whether or not someone develops colitis (inflammation of the intestines) during cancer treatment with immune-checkpoint inhibitor drugs. Studying samples of stool, blood, and tissue from patients with melanoma or genitourinary cancer may help doctors learn more about the effects of treatment on cells, and help doctors understand how well patients respond to treatment. Treatment with fecal...
Upwards of 40% of cancer patients will develop brain metastases during their illness, most of which become symptomatic. The burden of brain metastases impacts the quality and length of survival. Thus the management of brain metastases is a significant health care problem. Standard treatment options include stereotactic radiosurgery and/or whole brain radiation. There is a great interest in studying the association between the functional characteristics of tumors - such as tumour hypoxia and lactate accumulation - and clinical outcomes in order to guide management. These characteristics may predict future tumor behavior and stratify risk of therapy failure. Hyperpolarized 13C MR...
Patients with recurrent Glioblastoma (GBM) are commonly presented to surgeons, along with the question of whether or not to re-resect the recurrence. There is no Level 1 evidence to support a role for repeat surgery in this context, but a multitude of observational research suggests that repeat surgery may improve quality survival. Unfortunately, these studies all suffer from selection bias. The goal of this study is to provide a care trial context to help neurosurgeons manage patients presenting with recurrent GBM, with no additional risks, tests, or interventions than what they would normally encounter in routine care. Secondary goals include a test of the hypothesis that...
This is a randomized, open-label, phase 2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of oral ropidoxuridine as a radiation-sensitizing agent in patients with newly diagnosed wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase glioblastoma with an unmethylated O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase promoter, undergoing standard 60 Gy radiotherapy.
