The study will assess the immunogenicity, safety and preliminary clinical efficacy of the glioma associated antigen (GAA)/tetanus toxoid (TT) peptide vaccine and poly-ICLC in HLA-A2+ children with unresectable low-grade gliomas that have received at least two chemotherapy/biologic regimens. Radiation therapy counts as one biologic regimen, but patients may not have received radiation to the index lesion within 1 year of enrollment.
This phase II trial studies the effect of avapritinib in treating malignant solid tumors that have a genetic change (mutation) in CKIT or PDGFRA and have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). Avapritinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Avapritinib may help to control the growth of malignant solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to understand the breadth of molecular characteristics present in participants cared for in a large integrated, community-based health care system. Using comprehensive genomic profiling and proteomics, the investigators seek to identify the underlying genomic drivers of premalignant or malignant conditions in participants across different stages of disease development and cancer types. Comprehensive molecular profiling will consist of somatic tumor testing (tissue and/or blood) using whole exome sequencing, whole transcriptome sequencing, proteomics, and selected instances of whole genome sequencing. In addition, the investigators seek to perform...
The researchers are doing this study to find out whether the combination of axitinib and nivolumab is an effective and safe treatment for people with advanced or metastatic mucosal melanoma that has not been treated before. The researchers think that a combination of axitinib and nivolumab may help people with this disease because both drugs target and block proteins that play a role in cancer cell survival and growth. The researchers think the drugs may be more effective if given in combination rather than on their own.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if taking axitinib with ipilimumab is effective in treating advanced melanoma.
This is an open-label, single-center Phase 0/1b study that will enroll at least 27 participants with recurrent WHO Grade 4 Glioma requiring re-radiation and approximately 35 participants with newly-diagnosed WHO Grade 4 glioma (nGBM). The trial will be composed of a Phase 0 component (subdivided into Arms A - C), and an expansion Phase 1b. Patients with tumors demonstrating a positive PK response in the Phase 0 component of the study will be eligible to graduate to an expansion phase that combines therapeutic dosing of AZD1390 plus standard-of-care fractionated radiotherapy (RT).
This is a randomized, parallel-arm, phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of B7-H3 CAR-T in between Temozolomide cycles comparing to Temozolomide alone in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back or does not respond to the standard treatment. The antigen B7-H3 is highly expressed in glioblastoma of a subset of patients. B7-H3 CAR-T, made from isolated patient peripheral blood mononuclear cells, can specifically attack patient glioblastoma cells that expressing B7-H3.
This is an open label, non-randomized, single site Phase I study to test the manufacturing feasibility and safety of locoregional (LR) administration of B7-H3CART into the central nervous system of adult subjects with recurrent IDH wild-type GBM using a standard 3+3 dose escalation design.
3CAR is being done to investigate an immunotherapy for patients with solid tumors. It is a Phase I clinical trial evaluating the use of autologous T cells genetically engineered to express B7-H3-CARs for patients ≤ 21 years old, with relapsed/refractory B7-H3+ solid tumors. This study will evaluate the safety and maximum tolerated dose of B7-H3-CAR T cells.The purpose of this study is to find the maximum (highest) dose of B7-H3-CAR T cells that are safe to give to patients with B7-H3-positive solid tumors. Primary objective To determine the safety of one intravenous infusion of autologous, B7-H3-CAR T cells in patients (≤ 21 years) with recurrent/refractory B7-H3+ solid tumors...
Newborn screening (NBS) is a global initiative of systematic testing at birth to identify babies with pre-defined severe but treatable conditions. With a simple blood test, rare genetic conditions can be easily detected, and the early start of transformative treatment will help avoid severe disabilities and increase the quality of life. Baby Detect Project is an innovative NBS program using a panel of target sequencing that aims to identify 126 treatable severe early onset genetic diseases at birth caused by 361 genes. The list of diseases has been established in close collaboration with the Paediatricians of the University Hospital in Liege. The investigators use dedicated...
