This research study is studying two different types of radiation as treatment for brain metastases (tumors in the brain that spread from a cancer that originated elsewhere in the body)
In the last decades, many advances have been made in the field of genetic abnormalities of glial and glioneuronal brain tumors. In the 2016 World Health organization (WHO) Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System, the concept of "integrated" diagnosis emerged: histological and genetic/molecular features now define many entities. Since 2016, six updates have been published by the c-IMPACT-NOW (the Consortium to Inform Molecular and Practical Approaches to CNS Tumor Taxonomy- Not Official WHO) to develop and clarify the "integrated" diagnosis. In the future WHO 2021 Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System,...
This registry aims to collect clinical, molecular and radiologic data including detailed clinical parameters, molecular pathology (1p/19q co-deletion, MGMT methylation, IDH and TERTp mutations, etc) and images of HE slices in primary gliomas. By leveraging artificial intelligence, this registry will seek to construct and refine histopathology image based algorithms that are able to predict molecular pathology or subgroups of gliomas.

The goal of this prospective cohort study is to assess the potential of advanced MRI for improved radiotherapy target delineation in patients diagnosed with glioblastoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How does the coverage of the recurrence volume by a radiotherapy plan based on advanced MRI compare to the coverage by the clinical radiotherapy plan? - How does the distribution of the dose to organs at risk by a radiotherapy plan based on advanced MRI compare to the distribution by the clinical radiotherapy plan? Participants will undergo an extended MRI-protocol prior to radiotherapy. This...
The main purpose of this study is to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of the combination of HL-085 and Vemurafenib in Advanced Melanoma Patients with BRAF V600E/K Mutation. This study includes IIa and IIb phase. Phase IIa will determine the dose regiment for Phase IIb. Phase IIb part will evaluate the efficacy and safety with this combination regiment.
On average, each year in the former region, 60 new patients under the age of 18 are treated for a brain tumor, with an active post-treatment follow-up file of 350 patients. Because of the significant sequelae induced by the disease or the treatments, these patients will very often require rehabilitative care. The interest of involving the horse in the population of patients cured of a medulloblastoma but with important physical and psychological after-effects is to be able to combine a therapy using animal mediation (equitherapy) and a rehabilitation therapy based on the three-dimensional movement of the horse (hippotherapy).
Schwannomas are mainly benign tumors, which develop mainly in the skull or in the cervical region. Retroperitoneal location is rare, since it represents between 0.5 and 5% of scwhanomas. The malignant retroperitoneal form is, however, more common than in other locations. Retroperitoneal schwannoma is often discovered during the exploration of unexplained lumbo-pelvic pain, or in the face of compression of nearby organs. Abdominopelvic CT and magnetic resonance imaging are essential to characterize the mass and verify its extension. The precise diagnosis is based on the pathological examination of the part, and complete ...
High-grade glioma is the most common primary malignant tumor in central nervous system, and its high tumor heterogeneity is the main cause of tumor progression, treatment resistance and recurrence. Habitat imaging is a segmentation technique by dividing tumor regions to characterize tumor heterogeneity based on tumor pathology, blood perfusion, molecular characteristics and other tumor biological features. In some studies, the Hemodynamic Multiparametric Tissue Signature (HTS) method has been proven to be feasible. The Hemodynamic Multiparametric Tissue Signature (HTS) consists of a set of vascular habitats obtained by Dynamic...
Although many children with brain tumours are successfully cured of their disease, a substantial proportion of patients suffer disease recurrence and require further treatment. This therapy may involve a repeat course of radiation (RT2). Based on retrospective data, re-irradiation may provide palliative and even potentially curative benefit. However, such retrospective data are subject to bias, which may over-report survival and under-report toxicity. Furthermore, we do not know how re-irradiation affects patients' HRQOL. The goal of this research is to prospectively describe the HRQOL of patients diagnosed with DIPG and recurrent...
