To determine the safety of intrathecal (IT) PD1 antibody for Intrathecal application of PD1 antibody in metastatic solid tumors with leptomeningeal disease of solid tumors.
Retinoblastoma is the most common intraocular malignancy in infancy and childhood. The overall survival rate of retinoblastoma was reported to exceed 95% when children were early diagnosed with localized intraocular phase. The advanced retinoblastoma cases with central nervous system metastasis (CNS)is associated with exceedingly poor prognosis. CNS metastasis is the main cause of death in retinoblastoma. Meningeal involvement combined with spinal cord membrane involvement might be due to the meninges invasion and/or the spreading of CSF. As the most sensitive drug to retinoblastoma tumor cells in vitro, melphalan is the most ...
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled, open-label investigator-initiated clinical study to evaluate the clinical efficacy and quality of life of intrathecal chemotherapy through Ommaya reservoir in combination with systematic chemotherapy versus systemic chemotherapy alone in patients with Her-2 negative breast cancer with leptomeningeal metastasis.
The objective of the present study is to determine the feasibility and to explore anti-tumor activity of intrathecal double immune checkpoint inhibition for patients with newly diagnosed leptomeningeal metastases from non-small cell lung cancer without driver mutation or melanoma.
This early phase I trial studies brain tumor (glioma) metabolism in response to eflornithine (DFMO) and polyamine transport inhibitor AMXT-1501 dicaprate (AMXT 1501) in patients with diffused or high grade glioma. Brain tumors use and produce certain molecules to survive and grow. DFMO is an irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase, the enzyme catalyzing polyamine synthesis. AMXT 1501 is a polyamine transport inhibitor which prevents uptake of polyamines from the extracellular environment. This trial is being done to analyze how DFMO and AMXT 1501 affect brain tumor metabolism based on the molecules in the tumor's fluid.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of ex vivo expanded natural killer cells in treating patients with cancerous (malignant) tumors affecting the upper part of the brain (supratentorial) that have come back (recurrent) or that are growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive). Natural killer (NK) cells are immune cells that recognize and get rid of abnormal cells in the body, including tumor cells and cells infected by viruses. NK cells have been shown to kill different types of cancer, including brain tumors in laboratory settings. Giving NK cells from unrelated donors who are screened for optimal cell ...
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intratumoral injections of PH-762 in squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, or Merkel cell carcinomas of the skin, to understand what the body does to the PH-762, and to observe how the tumor responds to the drug. Participants will receive four injections of PH-762 at weekly intervals, into a single tumor, followed by surgical removal of the tumor approximately two weeks later.
Intra-operative blood loss of huge meningioma resection patients on average was over 1000ml. Intra-operative massive hemorrhage was associated with longer hospital of stay, higher expense, and higher mortality. Previous studies indicated intra-operative tranexamic acid infusion would decrease blood loss for cardiac, trauma and obstetric procedures. However, limited researches focusing on the effect of tranexamic acid in neurosurgery population, with heterogenous pathologies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of tranexamic acid on intra-operative blood loss in patients undergoing huge meningioma resection.
This is an open-label Phase I clinical study that will administer a single dose of 186RNL via intraventricular catheter for treatment of Leptomeningeal Metastases (LM).
This study is designed as a single center, prospective, open label, single-arm therapeutic trial with both surgical and non-surgical cohorts.
