The trial is designed as a multicenter randomized controlled study. 246 patients with presumed Glioblastoma Multiforme in eloquent areas on diagnostic MRI will be selected by the neurosurgeons according the eligibility criteria (see under). After written informed consent is obtained, the patient will be randomized for an awake craniotomy (AC) (+/-123 patients) or craniotomy under general anesthesia (GA) (+/-123 patients), with 1:1 allocation ratio. Under GA the amount of resection of the tumour has to be performed within safe margins as judged by the surgeon during surgery. The second group will be operated with an awake craniotomy ...
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of NV-A01 in the treatment of advanced glioma patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. The safety of NV-A01 in the treatment of advanced glioblastoma patients. 2. The effectiveness of NV-A01 in treating patients with advanced glioblastoma.
This is a single arm clinical study to estimate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of Chimeric Antigen Receptor-modified T cells (CAR-T) SNC-109 in patients with recurrent glioblastoma (r-GBM) and preliminarily evaluate the effectiveness, the immunogenicity of the product, as well as their correlation between the changes of cytokines from baseline level after cellular infusion.
The study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy for patients with maligant glioblastoma multiforme. Autologous TiLs should be given by intravenous infusion after 5 days of lymphodepletion treatment.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of thiotepa and pomalidomide in the treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).
A greater extent of resection of the contrast-enhancing (CE) tumor part has been associated with improved outcomes in high-grade glioma patients. Recent results suggest that resection of the non-contrast-enhancing (NCE) part might yield even better survival outcomes (supramaximal resection, SMR). Therefore, this study evaluates the efficacy and safety of SMR with and without mapping techniques in HGG patients in terms of survival, functional, neurological, cognitive, and quality of life outcomes. Furthermore, it evaluates which patients benefit the most from SMR, and how they could be identified preoperatively. This study is an...
Resection of the vestibular schwannoma leads to acute peripheral or combined vestibular loss caused by a surgical lesion to the branches of the vestibular nerve and, less frequently also the lesion of the cerebellum. The lesion presents in patients with postural instability, vertigo, oscillopsia, and vegetative symptoms that may accompany it. The organism reacts to this state with the process of central compensation with the significant role of the cerebellum. The goal of the rehabilitation is to support this process and thus to make recovery faster and more efficient since not all patients are capable of complete restoration of the...
This non-interventional study aims to investigate change over time in cognitive function, sleep quality, and activity in daily life as important determinants of QoL in a large cohort of GBM patients in Germany treated with TTFields in routine clinical care using low-threshold, electronic PRO and modern automated tracking data analyses. The gained results will allow even better understanding of TTFields therapy in daily life of GBM patients and consequently, better informing patients about what to expect when starting this therapy, increasing therapy compliance in the long-term.
This phase I/II trial studies how well tiragolumab and atezolizumab works when given to children and adults with SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficient tumors that have either come back (relapsed) or do not respond to therapy (refractory). SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficiency means that tumor cells are missing the SMARCB1 and SMARCA4 genes, seen with some aggressive cancers that are typically hard to treat. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as tiragolumab and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
The purpose of this study is to improve upon the knowledge currently available about pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors by further examining biological samples from pediatric patients with tumors undergoing surgery.
