Active clinical trials for "Brain Neoplasms"

Despite the impressive response rate to third-generation EGFR-TKIs, resistance inevitably develops in most patients. Stereotactic radiotherapy plays a growing role in the management of patients with brain metastasis. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic radiotherapy for oligo-residual intracranial disease after first-line third-generation EGFR Inhibitors.

Lung cancer has remained the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. An important and frequent cause of morbidity in this patient group is the development of brain metastases (BM). Lung cancer represents the leading cause of BM, and previous reports have shown that approximately 40% of patients will develop BM throughout their disease. Additionally, due to the improved use of advanced imaging techniques as part of routine initial staging. Another factor to consider is the considerably prolonged survival in patients with lung cancer as a direct result of the medical advances that have improved systemic disease control in the past 2 decades. The development of BM has recognized as one of the most detrimental factors for patient prognosis, with a negative impact on quality of life (QoL), concomitant neurocognitive disorders, and, importantly, a significant decrease in OS. RTOG 0214 shows that In patients with stage III disease without progression of disease after therapy, PCI decreased the rate of BM. NVALT-11/DLCRG-02 Study shows that PCI significantly decreased the proportion of patients who developed symptomatic brain metastases with an increase in low-grade toxicity. In conclusion, PCI improved DFS and decreased the risk of BM in patients with LA-NSCLC.Recent studies suggest NSCLC, including stage IV NSCLC, PCI significantly decreased CBM in addition to increasing progression-free survival and OS. At present, few studies on whether prophylactic radiation therapy can reduce the rate of brain metastasis and OS in stage IV NSCLC. In this randomized controlled study of stage IV NSCLC, we investigated whether PCI reduces the chance of brain metastases and whether it has a survival benefit.

A single-arm pilot study, to assess the efficacy of cerebellar IMRT combined with cerebral SRS in patients with brain metastases that are predominantly in the posterior fossa - a novel treatment approach

This is a longitudinal, dose-finding, open label safety and tolerability phase Ib treatment study. The study hypothesis is that dapagliflozin will be well-tolerated by brain tumor patients on chemotherapy as assessed by tolerability and side effect profiles.

This research study will evaluate how well brain metastases associated with HER-2 positive breast cancer can be controlled using a type of radiation known as stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) when combined with three therapeutic agents, tucatinib, capecitabine, and trastuzumab. The combined use of SRS with the three drugs is considered investigational.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about in patients with supratentorial brain tumours. The main questions it aims to answer is: Can short-term preoperative walking exercise protect cognitive function in the short term after craniotomy in patients with supratentorial brain tumor and reduce the incidence of surgery-related complications? Participants will be asked to receive general care and regular walking exercises prior to surgery. Researchers will compare patients who receive only general care before surgery to see if preoperative walking exercise has an effect on postoperative prognosis.

20 participants are expected to be enrolled for this open，Single-armed clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the recombinant herpes simplex virus Ⅰ, R130 in patients with advanced solid tumors.

This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TY-9591 in first-line treatment of patients with EGFR-sensitive mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer with brain metastases compared to Osimertinib.

This single center, single arm, open-label, phase I study will assess the safety of laparoscopically harvested autologous omentum, implanted into the resection cavity of recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients.

Patients suffering from malignancies in advanced stages often develop brain metastases, which limit both the life span and the quality of life. Therapy options for multiple brain metastases may vary and range from stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT), chemotherapy, immunotherapy to palliative best supportive care. Especially the efficacy and toxicity of SRS compared to WBRT in patients with extensive brain metastases (>4) is not yet clear but of incremental relevance in this seriously ill cohort with a limited life span. These health-impaired patients might especially profit from a less toxic treatment that is also time sparing with 1 or few sessions in SRS versus 10 sessions in WBRT. On the other hand, no compromises in efficacy want to be done.
