This phase 1 study will evaluate a novel hEGFRvIII-CD3-biscFv Bispecific T cell engager (BRiTE) in patients diagnosed with pathologically documented World Health Organization (WHO) grade 4 malignant glioma (MG) with an EGFRvIII (epidermal growth factor receptor variant III) mutation (either newly diagnosed or at first progression/recurrence). The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of BRiTE in such patients.
BICHE- 1: Brain Irradiation for Childhood cancer - Endocrine monitoring during the first five years is a study of endocrine monitoring after cerebral radiotherapy. The study concerns patients in remission at the end of oncological treatment aged between 4 and 18 years at the time of inclusion and who have had radiotherapy before the age of 16, irradiating all or part of the brain, with a delay between the end of radiotherapy and inclusion of less than 5 years. Patients will be included during a routine visit to the paediatric endocrinologist. The protocol for the Biche 1 study has been designed and discussed in a multidisciplinary and multicentre manner, based on data from the...
1. To explore whether the combined administration of dexmedetomidine during and after surgery in patients undergoing brain tumor resection is an effective and safe modality to prevent postoperative delirium and improve sleep quality than giving it alone after surgery. 2. To explore whether intraoperative and postoperative administration of dexmedetomidine to patients undergoing brain tumor surgery can reduce postoperative acute pain and prevent chronic pain. 3. To explore whether intraoperative and postoperative administration of dexmedetomidine to patients undergoing brain tumor surgery can provide stable anesthesia depth,...
The study aims to investigate the effect of anti-estrogenic therapy in breast cancer patients on neural reward processing, psychosexual health, and quality of life, in reproductive vs. menopausal women. The investigators are directly comparing four groups 1) premenopausal women diagnosed with breast cancer receiving anti-estrogenic therapy, 2) postmenopausal women diagnosed with breast cancer with and without previous hormonal replacement therapy, receiving anti-estrogenic therapy, 3) premenopausal healthy women, and 4) postmenopausal healthy women. Furthermore, via assessment and integration of various data including subjective/self-report data via questionnaires and a...
This study is an open-label, multicenter, single-arm Phase II clinical study to evaluate the effectiveness of cadonilimab (AK104) in combination with anlotinib in the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic melanoma.
This is an open-label phase 1 study to assess the safety, feasibility, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of autologous T cells co-expressing two CARs targeting the cryptic EGFR epitope 806 a nd I L13Ra2 ( referred t o a s " CART-EGFR-IL13Ra2 cells") in patients with newly diagnosed, EGFR-amplified, MGMT-unmethylated glioblastoma, without evidence of disease recurrence/progression following completion of initial radiotherapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if cCeLL imaging is as accurate as standard biopsy practices for brain tumor surgeries. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is it as accurate as standard biopsy practices? - Can it be performed faster than standard biopsy practices? Participants will consent to having their tumor tissue assessed by both cCeLL and standard biopsy procedures. There are no additional participation requirements beyond the tumor removal surgery.
With the rapid development of targeted drugs, the treatment of patients with leptomeningeal metastasis has become a very difficult problem in clinical work. High-dose targeted drugs and intrathecal chemotherapy are important treatment methods for meningeal metastasis. However, it is vital to note that safety is also of concern in previous studies of intrathecal chemotherapy. In this study, we aim to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of patient using chemo-holiday therapy based on the cerebrospinal fluid cytology, combined with double-dose EGFR-targeted drug in patients with leptomeningeal metastases from EGFR-positive NSCLC.
This is an an interventional study to explore the mechanism of cerebrospinal fluid immune microenvironment in patients with advanced anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive non-small cell lung cancer with brain metastases treated with Iruplinalib.
The primary goal of this study is to establish the safety of chronic Convection Enhanced Delivery (CED) of the chemotherapeutic drug Topotecan for patients with recurrent malignant glioma that harbors the Isocitrate Dehydrogenase mutation (IDH-mut). The secondary goal of the study is to study drug distribution and assess the tumor response to prolonged continuous CED of Topotecan. Convection Enhanced Delivery is a novel method of drug delivery that allows administration of a drug directly to the brain. In CED, a drug pump is placed under the skin in the chest or abdominal region. The pump is connected to a catheter that is tunneled underneath the skin to the brain. The tip of...
