This phase II trial tests whether an exercise intervention works to improve cognitive function in breast cancer survivors. Many breast cancer survivors report cancer-related cognitive impairment, which this has recently become a priority in clinical research due to its dramatic impact on daily functioning, quality of life, and long-term health. Aerobic exercise has the potential to improve cognitive function and brain health in older adults and is recommended as a safe, tolerable, and accessible complementary therapy for breast cancer survivors. This study aims to understand the effects of physical activity compared with health education on memory, attention, and brain health in...
This clinical trial studies the effect of respiratory training for enhancing brain and mental health among patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and cancer (along with their caregivers). The relationship between respiration, cardiovascular effects in the brain, mental health, and neurophysiological mechanisms are significant for patient populations facing complex health challenges, such as those with cancer and neurodegenerative disease, and their caregivers. By measuring oxygen delivery to brain tissues and cerebrospinal fluid flow, this trial may help researchers investigate the potential benefits of respiratory training for patients with MS and cancer and their caregivers.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of using brodalumab in patients who develop side effects from cancer immune therapy. Immune-related side effects are due to activation of the immune system in patients who previously received immunotherapy and the goal of this study is to help better control these side effects. Brodalumab is often used to treat patients with autoimmune diseases (diseases where the immune system is activated against normal organs) and safe doses and treatment schedules have been determined in these patients. Immune-related side effects appear to closely mirror these autoimmune conditions. Brodalumab has not been approved by the United...
The purpose of this study is to test any good or bad effects of the study drug called of ibrutinib (also known as Imbruvica™). At this stage of this trial, the study is investigating whether Ibrutinib can be incorporated into the established first-line chemotherapy regimen rituximab, methotrexate, vincristine, and procarbazine (R-VMP) in order to further refine the first-line induction therapy for PCNSL, as observed by a superior CRR (complete response rate) (ARM D RECRUITING ONLY)
The global cost of dementia is over 818 billion, and a further rise is expected in the next decade. While family caregiving is the backbone of the formal care service, promoting "living well with dementia" needs to extend to a dyadic perspective to address the needs of persons with dementia and their caregivers. Unique to dementia caregiving, imbalanced exchange in the assistance, interaction, relationship and autonomy between the partners in a care dyad always challenges their social interaction and relationships. Such eroding dyadic dynamics not only worsens the mental health of caregivers, but also compromises the quality of caregiving, fosters more dementia deterioration,...
In this study, there are two treatment groups called Cohort 1 and Cohort 2. Cohort 1 is for patients with diffuse midline glioma, high grade glioma, diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, medulloblastoma, or another rare brain cancer that expresses GD2. Cohort 2 is for patients with a type of cancer called progressive pontine diffuse midline glioma (DMG), high grade glioma or diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma that expresses GD2. Because there is no standard treatment at this time, patients are asked to volunteer in a gene transfer research study using special immune cells called T cells. T cells are a type of white blood cell that help the body fight infection. This research study...
This is a multi-center, open-label study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-cancer activity of oral administration of emavusertib alone or in combination with ibrutinib in adult participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) hematologic malignancies. This trial will be completed in four parts. In Part A1, emavusertib will be evaluated first in a dose escalating monotherapy setting to establish the safety and tolerability (complete). In Part A2, emavusertib will be evaluated in combination with ibrutinib at 560 milligrams (mg) once daily (QD) or 420 mg QD as indicated by disease (Part A2 complete). Part B will comprise 2 cohorts to assess safety and...
This is an Open-Label Phase I/II Study of daily cabozantinib plus lanreotide every 4 w eeks to treat advanced G1-2 gastroentero-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (GEP-NET) patients who failed to one line or more than one line of small molecule kinase inhibitor or well-differentiated (W-D) G3 GEP-NET who failed to one line of small molecule kinase inhibitor or chemotherapy.
A Phase II Study of Cabozantinib for Patients with Recurrent or Progressive Meningioma
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cadonilimab combined with stereotactic radiation therapy in the second-line treatment of brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does Cadonilimab combined with SRT in the second-line treatment of brain metastases provide better results? - Is the toxicity of Cadonilimab combined with SRT manageable in second-line treatment of brain metastases? Researchers will compare evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cadonilimab combined with SRT as a second-line treatment for patients with advanced NSCLC: - Receive...
