This study is to collect and validate regulatory-grade real-world data (RWD) in oncology using the novel, Master Observational Trial construct. This data can be then used in real-world evidence (RWE) generation. It will also create reusable infrastructure to allow creation or affiliation with many additional RWD/RWE efforts both prospective and retrospective in nature.
There are no guidelines or prospective studies defining the optimal surgical treatment for gliomas of older patients (≥70 years) or those with limited functioning performance at presentation (KPS ≤70). Therefore, the decision between resection and biopsy is varied, amongst neurosurgeons internationally and at times even within an instiutition. This study aims to compare the effects of maximal tumor resection versus tissue biopsy on survival, functional, neurological, and quality of life outcomes in these patient subgroups. Furthermore, it evaluates which modality would maximize the potential to undergo adjuvant treatment. ...
Glioma patients have poor prognosis because of limited choices of treatment. Therapeutic cancer vaccines have been proved to improve survival in glioma, but resistance is a new challenge for vaccine treatment, and the mechanism is unclear. The applicant found in previous papers that glioma cells induced B7-H4 overexpression in macrophages, and the expression level of B7-H4 is highly correlated with vaccine resistance. Preliminary experiments indicated that B7-H4 protein in macrophages inhibited the expression of ATF3, STAT1 and CXCL9/10, which also resulted in decreased T cell infiltration in glioma model of mouse and was a negative...
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...
