The aim of this trial is to investigate whether neuroendoscopic hematoma evacuation combined with early use of methylprednisolone sodium succinate can improve the efficacy and safety in the treatment with that of simple neuroendoscopic surgery alone for patients with spontaneous basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage within 24 hours after the onset.
In this study the investigators will select and develop potential therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for glioblastoma (GB). Activities include tissue microarray (TMA) to test monoclonal antibodies specificity and target distribution, selection of glioblastoma specific functional monoclonal antibodies, identification of candidate targets.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the addition of NG101m adjuvant therapy to standard of care treatment of glioblastoma multiforme. All subjects will receive NG101m capsules along with the standard treatment of temozolomide and radiation.
To evaluate the efficacy of nilatinib maleate tablets combined with capecitabine in the treatment of HER2-positive advanced esophageal/esophagogastric junction/gastric adenocarcinoma with brain metastasis.
The phase II study is performed to assess the efficacy and safety of Nimotuzumab in patients with stage IV pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms and EGFR overexpression.
The study evaluates safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics at recommended phase II dose (RP2D) and preliminary antitumor activity of Niraparib + dd-TMZ "one week on, one week off" in patients affected by recurrent GBM IDH wild-type and recurrent IDH mutant (WHO grade 2-4) gliomas. The treatment will be administered until progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, consent withdrawal, lost to follow-up or death. The entire study is expected to last approximately 40 months.
This research study involves studying a device as a possible treatment for metastatic melanoma in the brain. The purpose of this study is to obtain information on the safety and effectiveness of the study device, NovoTTF-200A, in melanoma participants with brain metastases when it is combined with Pembrolizumab. The name of the study device involved in this study is: -- NovoTTF-200A The name of the drug used in this study is: -- Pembrolizumab
Rationale: The randomized trial NADINA has demonstrated that neoadjuvant treatment with nivolumab with ipilimumab improves event-free survival (EFS) in patients with macroscopic resectable stage III melanoma. In this study, therapeutic lymph node dissection (TLND) was standard of care, showing that patients achieving a major pathological response (MPR, i.e., ≤10% residual viable tumor bed) have an excellent outcome (EFS and Distant Metastasis Free Survival (DMFS)). The PRADO trial indicated that the MPR definition can also be revealed from a surrogate lymph node response, the index lymph node (ILN), allowing sparing the extensive surgery in MPR patients. In these MPR patients the...
The goal of this prospective observational cohort study is to assess the optimal in vitro production protocol for generating Cytokine-Induced Killer (CIK) cells, a type of T lymphocyte, and to evaluate the potential adverse effects of concurrent neuro-oncology therapies on these cells in glioblastoma (GBM) patients. Additionally, the study aims to explore mechanisms to enhance the antitumor activity of CIK cells against GBM by investigating GBM's immune escape mechanisms that may counteract the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-independent activity of CIK cells. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the most effective in vitro production protocol for generating highly...
Cushing's disease is a rare condition where the body produces too much of a hormone called cortisol. Cortisol helps with metabolism, the immune system, and managing stress. But too much cortisol can lead to problems like weight gain, high blood pressure, diabetes, and changes in appearance, such as a round face or a hump on the back. People with Cushing's disease often gain weight around their belly and may get stretch marks. They might also feel emotional changes, tiredness, or weakness. This disease is usually caused by a small, non-cancerous growth in the pituitary gland called a 'pituitary adenoma.' The pituitary gland is a small organ at the base of the brain and controls...
