Active clinical trials for "Glioblastoma"

VXM01 phase I pilot study in patients with operable recurrence of a glioblastoma to examine safety, tolerability, immune and biomarker response to the investigational VEGFR-2 DNA vaccine VXM01

The purpose of this study was to investigate the activity of dabrafenib in combination with trametinib in children and adolescent patients with BRAF V600 mutation positive low grade glioma (LGG) or relapsed or refractory high grade glioma (HGG)

The standard or usual treatment for this disease is standard chemotherapy alone. AZD2014 is a new type of drug for glioblastoma multiforme. In the laboratory it has been shown to slow the growth of glioblastoma multiforme. In some animal studies AZD2014 seemed to work better when given with a drug called temozolomide.

This research study is studying a chemotherapy as a possible treatment for recurrent glioblastoma that has not responded to bevacizumab. The name of the study drug involved in this study is Ponatinib.

First in human, open-label, sequential dose escalation and expansion study of oral BAL101553 in adult patients with advanced solid tumors and adult patients with recurrent or progressive glioblastoma or high-grade glioma.

This is an open-label non-randomized, multicenter, phase II study of BGJ398 administered to adult patients with histologically confirmed GBM and/or other glioma subtypes with FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3.

TVI-Brain-1 is an experimental treatment that takes advantage of the fact that your body can produce immune cells, called 'killer' white blood cells that have the ability to kill large numbers of the cancer cells that are present in your body. TVI-Brain-1 is designed to generate large numbers of those 'killer' white blood cells and to deliver those cells into your body so that they can kill your cancer cells.

This, international, multi-center, Phase 2 study of verubulin will be conducted in patients with newly diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM). The study will be conducted in two parts. Part A is an open-label dose finding study that will determine the safety and tolerability of verubulin in combination with standard treatment. Part B is a randomized open-label study that will investigate progression-free survival and overall survival of patients receiving verubulin, at the dose determined in Part A, in combination with standard treatment versus standard treatment alone.

Background: - AZD8055 is an experimental cancer treatment drug that works by inhibiting a protein called mTOR, which is known to promote tumor cell and blood vessel growth and to control tumor s energy and nutrient levels. AZD8055 is the first drug that inhibits both types of mTOR protein and is expected to be more effective than prior mTOR inhibitors. However, more research is needed to determine its safety and effectiveness in treating brain tumors known as gliomas that have not responded to standard treatments. Objectives: - To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of AZD8055 in individuals with gliomas that have not responded to standard treatments. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with gliomas that have not responded to standard chemotherapy, surgery, or radiation. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical examination, medical history, blood tests, and tumor imaging studies. Participants will be separated into two treatment groups: one group that will receive surgery to remove the glioma and one that will not have surgical treatment. Participants in the nonsurgical treatment group will take AZD8055 by mouth daily for a 42-day cycle of treatment. Participants will keep a diary to record doses and keep track of any side effects. Participants in the surgical treatment group will take AZD8055 by mouth daily for 7 days, and then will have tumor removal surgery. At least 3 weeks after surgery, participants will resume doses of AZD8055 and will continue to take the drug for as long as the tumor does not recur. During treatment, participants will have regular visits to the clinical center, involving frequent blood and urine tests and other examinations to monitor the effects of treatment. Participants will have imaging studies to study the cancer's response to the treatment. Participants will continue to have cycles of treatment for as long as the treatment continues to be effective and the side effects are not severe enough to stop participation in the study....

Trial to determine the safety of neoadjuvant treatment with concurrent temozolomide and radiation therapy, followed by surgery and then further temozolomide.
