The CARMIGO Trial is a single-centre, non-randomised, open label Phase I clinical trial of an Advanced Therapy Investigational Medicinal Product (ATIMP) in children and young adults aged 2-16 years with Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG). The study will evaluate the feasibility of generating the ATIMP, the safety and tolerability of the GD2CAR T-cell therapy and how effectively GD2CAR T-cells engraft, expand and persist following administration in patients with DMG.
This is an open-label phase 1 study to assess the safety and feasibility of autologous T cells co-expressing two CARs targeting the cryptic EGFR and IL13Ra2 (referred to as "CART-EGFR-IL13Ra2 cells") in patients with EGFR-amplified glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype that has recurred following prior radiotherapy.
This study will evaluates the safety and efficacy of Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T) in treating central nervous system B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia.
The goal of this research study is to determine the best dose of CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells for treating participants with glioblastoma. The name of the treatment intervention used in this research study is: -CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells (or Autologous T lymphocytes).
This study will be a dual-arm prospective longitudinal cohort study for patients with brain metastases, at least one of which is appropriate for radiotherapy, to explore brain and cognitive changes following SRS or WBRT and evaluate the feasibility of a novel MRI protocol to identify potential radiological biomarkers of NCF decline. Patients diagnosed with brain mets will be assigned to either Arm A or Arm B, depending on their treatment plan. Patients in Arm A will be treated with SRS. Patients in Arm B will be treated with WBRT. Patients' neurocognitive function will be assessed before their radiation treatment and followed up for 2 years post treatment.
This phase I/II trial evaluates the best dose, side effects and possible benefit of CBL0137 in treating patients with solid tumors, including central nervous system (CNS) tumors or lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Drugs, such as CBL0137, block signals passed from one molecule to another inside a cell. Blocking these signals can affect many functions of the cell, including cell division and cell death, and may kill cancer cells.
This study seeks to investigate an evidence-based, manualized, behavioral health intervention, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), in individuals with primary brain tumors (PBT) and insomnia. Our project will assess the feasibility and acceptability of recruitment, enrollment, data collection procedures, and retention of individuals with PBT and insomnia in the behavioral health intervention, CBT-I, and investigate the potential benefits of CBT-I within this at-risk and understudied population. In the long term, the goals are to expand treatment options for neuro-oncology patients and improve their mission readiness and overall wellbeing.
This is a single center Phase I study of a new adjuvant CD200 activation receptor ligand, CD200AR-L, in combination with imiquimod and GBM6-AD vaccine to treat malignant glioma in children and young adults. The primary objective of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CD200AR-L when given with a fixed dose of GBM6-AD vaccine, imiquimod, and a single dose of radiation for patients with recurrent High Grade Glioma (HGG) or following standard of care therapy radiation therapy for newly diagnosed Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Midline Glioma/Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG/DMG).
Combination treatment with nivolumab and ipilimumab before surgery may help people with melanoma because the drugs are designed to help the immune system target and destroy cancer cells (immunotherapy), which may shrink the cancer and prevent recurrence after surgery. Treatment given before surgery is called neoadjuvant therapy. The purpose of this study is to find out whether neoadjuvant therapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab can kill melanoma tumors before surgery and prevent disease from coming back after surgery. This study also explores a new, experimental PET scan that images the immune system to see if it is related to treatment outcomes.
This phase II trial tests how well cemiplimab works in treating patients with PD-L1 >= 50% non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to the brain (metastases). Approximately 10% of patients diagnosed with metastatic NSCLC present with brain metastases and another 30% develop brain metastases during the illness. Currently, the management of brain metastases relies on stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), which has high rates of local control, but in combination with systemic therapy, can cause certain toxicities, including central nervous system (CNS) necrosis or potential cognitive changes or memory deficits. Additionally, in...
