Glioblastoma Clinical Trials

The objective of this study is to assess the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of Liposomal Curcumin (LC) in combination with radiotherapy (RT) and Temozolomide (TMZ) in patients with newly diagnosed High-Grade Gliomas (HGG). Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about treatment for a type of brain cancer called glioma. This clinical trial is for people with glioma who have been cancer-free for a period of time but their cancer has come back. The primary goals of this clinical trial are the following: * To determine the recommended dose of PCI-24781/Abexinostat with metronomic temozolomide * To evaluate side effects associated with using PCI-24781/Abexinostat with metronomic temozolomide Read Less

Study to assess the safety and efficacy of HSV-tk (gene therapy), valacyclovir, radiotherapy and chemotherapy in newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) or anaplastic astrocytoma (AA). Read Less

This pilot clinical trial studies fluordeoxyglucose (fludeoxyglucose) F-18 (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in monitoring very early therapy response in patients with glioblastoma. Diagnostic procedures, such as FDG PET/CT, may help measure a patient's response to earlier treatment. Chemotherapy can induce very rapid changes to the tumor's glucose consumption which can be measured with imaging. FDG PET/CT shortly after the start of therapy may help identify very early therapy response in patients with glioblastoma. Read Less

This phase I/Ib trial tests the side effects, best dose, tolerability, and effectiveness of RMC-5552 in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent). RMC-5552 is a type of medicine called an mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor. These types of drugs prevent the formation of a specific group of proteins called mTOR. This protein controls cancer cell growth, and the study doctors believe stopping mTOR from forming may help to kill tumor cells. Read Less

Loc3CAR is a Phase I clinical trial evaluating the use of autologous B7-H3-CAR T cells for participants ≤ 21 years old with primary CNS neoplasms. B7-H3-CAR T cells will be locoregionally administered via a CNS reservoir catheter. Study participants will be divided into two cohorts: cohort A with B7-H3-positive relapsed/refractory non-brainstem primary CNS tumors, and cohort B with diffuse midline gliomas (DMG). Participants will receive four (4) B7-H3-CAR T cell infusions over a 4 week period. The purpose of this study is to find the maximum (highest) dose of B7-H3-CAR T cells that are safe to give patients with primary brain tumors. Primary objectives * To determine the safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the locoregional delivery of autologous B7-H3-CAR T cells in patients ≤ 21 years of age with recurrent/refractory B7-H3+ primary CNS tumors (Cohort A) or DMG (Cohort B). Secondary objectives * To assess the efficacy, defined as sustained objective response, a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) observed anytime on active treatment with B7-H3-CAR T cells in patients with relapsed/refractory B7-H3+ primary CNS tumors (Cohort A) or DMG (Cohort B). * To characterize and monitor neurologic toxicities in patients while on study (Cohort A and B).

The participants are being treated with Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) for malignant glioma, and this type of treatment may cause skin-related side effects. This study will test whether using clindamycin and triamcinolone topical lotions can prevent skin-related side effects of TTFields. Read Less

This is a single-arm, non-randomized, open-label Phase 2 therapeutic study that will assess the effects of adding BPM31510 onto a conventional treatment framework of RT and concurrent TMZ chemotherapy for subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Read Less

This clinical study to evaluate sonobiopsy is significant because sonobiopsy will fundamentally enhance the clinician's insight into the molecular features of an intracranial lesion to tailor treatment approaches and optimize outcomes. In addition to the standard diagnostics of anatomic imaging and surgical histology, sonobiopsy has the potential to become the third pillar for brain tumor management by radically advancing the ability to easily and regularly acquire tumor genetic and molecular signatures. This enhanced capability will have a dramatic impact on patient survival and quality of life. Read Less

This phase IV trial compares patient satisfaction with telehealth versus in-person neuro-oncology assessments among glioma patients receiving oral chemotherapy. Gliomas are the most common primary central nervous system cancer and are associated with a high symptom burden, such as drowsiness, fatigue, memory difficulty, and difficulty communicating. Care at a high volume center is associated with an overall survival benefit, however, many patients may have physical or financial difficulties preventing access to these centers. Telehealth visits use computers, cameras, videoconferencing, the internet, satellite, and wireless communications to deliver healthcare, while in-person visits require the interaction to take place in the physical presence of someone else. Telehealth neuro-oncology assessments may be preferable compared to in-person assessments in glioma patients receiving oral chemotherapy. Read Less

This research study is studying several investigational drugs as a possible treatment for Glioblastoma (GBM). The drugs involved in this study are : * Abemaciclib * Temozolomide (temodar) * Neratinib * CC115 * QBS10072S Read Less

The main goal of this study is to provide foundational data to drive translational approaches for an entirely novel category of immunotherapy. Read Less
