Diffuse gliomas are common tumors involving the brain. They are usually treated by surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy. Radiotherapy is used for the treatment of brain tumors which causes damage to the tumor cells. However, radiotherapy can also affect the surrounding healthy cells in the brain, causing inflammation and swelling in the region, which is known as radio necrosis (RN). This is considered a late side effect of radiation and is seen in 10-25% of patients treated with radiation for brain tumors. Sometimes, radionecrosis can be detected on routine imaging during follow-up without new symptoms (asymptomaticRN). ...
Cranial radiation therapy (RT), commonly used to treat benign and malignant brain tumors, can lead to cognitive impairments in domains not related to neuroanatomic structures directly impacted by the tumor. The study will prospectively enroll 75 patients with benign and low-grade brain tumors who will undergo partial brain RT, with either conventionally fractionated or hypofractionated schedules. Subjects will receive MRI scans at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. Given the role of the limbic system in key cognitive functions affected by RT, researchers have a particular interest in characterizing MRI changes in the limbic system...
This is a phase 2 trial of concurrent stereotactic radiation therapy (SBRT) with immunotherapy with relatlimab and nivolumab for up to two years. SBRT will be given in three doses of 15Gy each to 1-5 separate metastases. Opdualag (nivolumab 480mg and relatlimab 160mg) will be given every 4 weeks for two years
This study will test the safety of a study drug called CRD3874-SI. The researchers will test different doses of CRD3874-SI to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects in participants. After the researchers find the highest safe dose of CRD3874-SI, they will test that dose in new groups of participants to help them learn more about the side effects of the study drug and find out whether CRD3874-SI is an effective treatment for for patients with advanced or metastatic malignant solid tumors including sarcoma and Merkel Cell Carcinoma.
This phase 1/2 trial will be conducted in two parts. Part 1 (Dose Selection) is designed to find the dose of dapansutrile with acceptable tolerability in combination with pembrolizumab. Part 1 will consist of up to 2 dose selection cohorts to evaluate the safety and tolerability of dapansutrile + pembrolizumab in patients with PD-1 resistant melanoma to find the recommended part 2 dose (RP2D). Part 1 will include a lead-in phase of dapansutrile monotherapy at 500 mg PO BID. At day 15, combination therapy with pembrolizumab will be initiated. Dose escalation is planned to a maximum of 1000 mg BID of dapansutrile + pembrolizumab. ...
The primary purpose of Phase 1 (dose escalation) of this study is to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Debio 0123 in combination with temozolomide (TMZ) (Arm A) and in combination with TMZ and radiotherapy (RT) (Arm B) and to characterize the safety and tolerability of these combinations in adult participants with glioblastoma (GBM). The primary purpose of Phase 2 of this study is to assess the efficacy of Debio 0123 at the RP2D in combination with TMZ, compared to standard of care (SOC) in adult participants with GBM.
The researchers are doing this study to find out whether deferoxamine (DFO) given intrathecally (directly into the CSF) is a safe treatment for people with leptomeningeal metastasis from solid tumor cancer. The researchers will test different doses of DFO to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects. When the dose is found, they will test it in future participants to see whether DFO is a safe and effective treatment for people with leptomeningeal metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). They are also doing this study to see how the body absorbs, distributes, gets rid of, and responds to DFO.
In this study, the safety and preliminary efficacy of GNC-038 in patients with r relapsed or refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) and relapsed or refractory secondary central nervous system lymphoma (SCNSL) will be investigated to assess the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD) for MTD is not reached of GNC-038. The recommended dose for phase II (RP2D) clinical study will also be determined.
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter study designed to evaluate the preliminary antineoplastic activity, safety and tolerability of HA121-28 tablets administered orally in patients with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC).
This is a proof-of-concept study designed to investigate HER3-DXd monotherapy in locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The study is enrolling cohorts of participants with melanoma [cutaneous/acral], squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SCCHN), and HER2-negative gastric cancerovarian carcinoma, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, bladder cancer, esophageal carcinoma, pancreatic carcinoma, and prostate cancer.
