NCT00112502
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Thalidomide may stop the growth of glioblastoma multiforme by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Isotretinoin may help cells that are involved in the body's immune response to work better. Celecoxib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known which temozolomide-containing regimen is more effective in treating glioblastoma multiforme. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying eight different temozolomide-containing regimens to compare how well they work in treating patients who have undergone radiation therapy for glioblastoma multiforme.
NCT02844439

NCT04351035
Tumours of central nervous system (CNS) is the most common type of solid tumour in childhood. In China, there is limited epidemiology information. Released data from Chinese CDC did not include types of CNS tumours and geographic contribution. As the Children's Neuro-Oncology Group (CNOG) was established in China in May 2017, it makes studies from multiple centers in children's brain tumors become practical. This retrospective cross-sectional study was aligned on CNOG annual meeting in 2018 and research group was named as CNOG-MC001 (MC, multicenter) collaborative group.
NCT01723020
First in human, open-label, sequential dose escalation and expansion study of AMG 232 in subjects with advanced solid tumors or multiple myeloma
NCT01851733
This pilot clinical trial studies magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided laser surgery (MLA) and doxorubicin hydrochloride in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme. The blood brain barrier (BBB) is a separation of circulating blood from the tissue of the central nervous system, preventing substances in the blood from entering the brain. MLA disrupts the BBB around the tumor which may allow cancer-killing substances to be carried directly to the tumor and the surrounding area. Using MLA prior to chemotherapy may result in a greater concentration of drug in the tumor to kill the cancer cells while limiting side effects.
NCT03347097
At present, the investigators want to evaluate safety and efficacy of cell therapy based on Tumor-infiltrating T Lymphocyte (TIL)in glioblastoma. Here, we also constructed a transgenic modified TIL cells, stablely express a high-level full-length PD1 antibody (PD1-TIL cells), which can transduce signals to activate T cells and result in tumor killing. In this study, we design two group patients treated with TIL cells and PD1-TIL cells respectively to determine the safety and efficacy of autologous TILs or genetically modified TILs in patients with glioblastoma.
NCT05019196
Glioma is an invasive growth, easy to relapse, poor prognosis, great harm to human and society. Studies have shown that gliomas can cause the dynamic reorganization of brain functional areas, affecting the accuracy of surgical resection and the evaluation of long-term efficacy. While, it is difficult to monitor the functional reorganization of glioma in existing studies. The development trend can not effectively predict the outcome of tumor anaplasia and the compensation of brain function, which restricts the accurate tumor resection. In the early stage of this study, functional connectivity analysis was carried out of gliomas in the motor region and showed that the damage of motor functional connectivity on the opposite side of the lesion occurred earlier than that on the same side, suggesting that there may be some rules of how the disease caused functional reorganization. After stroke, the language and motor function will undergo plasticity, causing the functional areas to slowly repair the damaged function. Contrast to stroke, low-grade glioma grows slower, which gives brain more time to adapt to the damage caused by tumor growth, it may cause more functional reorganization. Professor Hugues Duffau's research showed that it is brain plasticity that can effectively explain patients with low-grade gliomas, even in language and motor areas, did not appear obvious dysfunction. Our previous research found there were significant differences in motor functional connectivity between the two hemispheres of the patients between the plasma tumor group and healthy controls. In addition, in the tumor group, the damage of motor connection on the contralateral side of the lesion occurred before on the ipsilateral side. These results suggest that brain function has been remodeled in patients with brain tumors who have not yet exhibited motor impairment. We presume there may be a certain pattern of brain function reorganization caused by low-grade glioma. This study take patients with brain glioma as the research object and adopt a multi-time point experimental design, combining with cortical electrical stimulation and multimodal magnetic resonance imaging data before and after operation, intending to observe the dynamic changes of language and motor function networks.
NCT01120639
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of a combination treatment for glioblastoma multiforme utilizing radiotherapy plus the FDA-approved chemotherapy drug temozolomide
NCT03393000
Open-label, randomized, controlled, phase 3 safety and efficacy registration trial. Subjects will be randomized at baseline to the standard of care for first-line treatment of glioblastoma plus Trans Sodium Crocetinate (TSC) or the standard of care. The standard of care for GBM will consist of temozolomide plus radiation therapy for 6 weeks followed by 28 days of rest followed by 6 cycles of post-radiation temozolomide treatment.
NCT03787056
Progastrin is a pro-hormone that, in physiological conditions, is maturated in gastrin in G cells of the stomach. The role of the gastrin is to stimulate the secretion of gastric acids during digestion. It is also important for the regulation of cell growth of the gastric mucosal. In a healthy person, progastrin is not detectable in the peripheral blood. However, progastrin is abnormally released in the blood of patients with different cancers (colorectal, gastric, ovarian, breast, cervix uterus, melanoma…) The gene GAST coding for progastrin is a direct target gene of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway. The activation of this oncogenic pathway is an early event in cancer development. Chronic activation of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway occurs in almost all human solid tumors and is a central mechanism in cancer biology that induces cellular proliferation, blocking of differentiation leading to primary tumor growth and metastasis formation. Progastrin measured in the peripheral blood of patients on treatments, could be a new powerful marker for diagnosis and prognosis at different stages.
NCT02798406
Glioblastoma (GBM) and gliosarcoma (GS) are the most common and aggressive forms of malignant brain tumor in adults and can be resistant to conventional therapies. The purpose of this Phase II study is to evaluate how well a recurrent glioblastoma or gliosarcoma tumor responds to one injection of DNX-2401, a genetically modified oncolytic adenovirus, when delivered directly into the tumor followed by the administration of intravenous pembrolizumab (an immune checkpoint inhibitor) given every 3 weeks for up to 2 years or until disease progression.

A pilot study to determine the safety and efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor T cell (autologous T cells transduced with a lentiviral vector expressing chimeric antigen receptor with or without anti-PDL1 antibody) personalized immunotherapy for patients with recurrent malignant gliomas based on the expression of tumor specific/associated antigens (EGFRVIII, IL13Rα2, Her-2, EphA2, CD133, GD2).
NCT03877861
This pilot study will assess feasibility and to obtain initial estimates of efficacy of Sleep Activity and Task Effectiveness (SAFTE) model, which can accurately estimate the impact of scheduling factors and sleep history on both safety and productivity. The SAFTE model will be used to asses cancer-related fatigue and study potential associations of change in sleep patterns to tumor recurrence in patients with high grade glioma. Data will be collected using the Readiband™ Sleep Tracker (https://www.fatiguescience.com/sleep-science-technology/). The Readiband device captures high-resolution sleep data, validated against the clinical gold standard of polysomnography with 92% accuracy. Sleep data is transmitted to the cloud automatically for SAFTE Fatigue Model analysis. We will correlate clinical progression data obtained from the patient's electronic medical record with SAFTE data.
