Cutaneous melanoma is a bad prognosis skin cancer, which can be treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), such as anti-PD-1 (nivolumab, nivo) and anti-CTLA-4 (ipilimumab, ipi). However, about 50% of patients do not respond or relapse within 3 years post therapy induction, and immune-related adverse events (irAEs), such as colitis, are triggered and can be treated with TNF inhibitor (TNFi; ie, infliximab, inflix). The pharmacodynamic impact of TNFi on the immune and clinical responses remain to be clarified. The investigators previously demonstrated that TNFi enhance the efficacy of ICI in mouse melanoma models. Based on preclinical findings, the investigators implemented...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of targeted blood brain barrier disruption with Exablate Model 4000 Type2.0/2.1 in combination with Doxorubicin therapy for the treatment of DIPG in pediatric patients

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of targeted blood brain barrier opening with Exablate Model 4000 Type 2.0/2.1 for the treatment of NSCLC brain metastases in patients who are undergoing planned FDA approved, on-label systemic therapy utilizing immune checkpoint inhibitors.
This phase IB/II trial is designed to investigate the safety and survival benefits for patients with recurrent grade-4 with unmethylated MGMT promoter treated with Bortezomib and Temozolomide in a specific schedule.
Cluster headache is a primary headache condition characterized by clusters of one-sided, high-intensity pain attacks. The headache may be episodic or chronic. Treatment options are limited and their effects unsatisfactory. An important nerve pathway involved in the pain attacks has a switching station at the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) located in the depth of the facial bones. SPG is a known therapy target for cluster headache. The area can be identified on CT images, but is difficult to access due to its location. Thus, the Multiguide navigation system has been developed to enable precise delivery of the drugs that target SPG activity. In Trondheim, two phase 1 / Phase 2 study...
This is a first-in-human (FIH), Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter study to assess safety and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of BOXR1030 administration after lymphodepleting chemotherapy (LD chemotherapy) in subjects with glypican-3 positive (GPC3+) advanced solid tumors.
The goal of this interventional study is to optimize the protocol of FES PET/CT in Estrogen Receptor positive Breast cancer patients with Brain metastases. Patients will undergo MRI of the brain and FDG PET/CT brain as part of standard of care for radiation treatment planning. An additional 18F-FES PET/CT brain scan will be completed before this standard of care radiation treatment. Patients will be followed prospectively with clinical and MRI assessments per standard-of-care for a total of 12 months. Study Population: Patients with ER-positive breast cancer with biopsy proven or suspected new or recurrent brain metastases (based on standard of care MRI) planned for...
This trial investigates brain and pelvic floor muscle activity in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. This trial may help identify the brain waves that are associated with muscles involved in giving patients control over the bladder.
During a brain surgery targeted to remove a brain tumor, the neurosurgeon wakes up the patient to delimit the tumor area exactly, and identify the surrounding areas, to limit the surgery damages. The present project aims at testing the patient in this awake phase to determine the brain areas implied in time to contact (TTC) perception, a function that allows determining the arrival time of moving objects and used in many tasks of our daily life.
