Active clinical trials for "Gliosarcoma"

Primary objectives To determine maxi tolerated dose of Temodar® in combo w O6-benzylguanine administered for 5 consecutive days in pts w progressive/recurrent GBM To characterize toxicity associated w Temodar® in combo w O6-BG administered for 5 consecutive days in pts w progressive/recurrent GBM To determine Neulasta®-supported MTD defined as the MTD of Temodar® in combo with O6-BG administered for 5 days while receiving Neulasta® once per treatment cycle between days 7 & 14 in pts w progressive/recurrent GBM To obtain preliminary response rates of Temodar® in combo w O6-BG administered for 5 consecutive days in pts w progressive/recurrent GBM

Objectives: To determine maximum tolerated dose of CPT-11 when administered following Temodar plus O6-benzylguanine To characterize any toxicity associated w combo of CPT-11 + Temodar plus O6-BG To observe pts for clinical antitumor response when treated w combo of CPT-11 + Temodar + O6-BG

This clinical trial studies yoga therapy in treating patients with malignant brain tumors. Yoga therapy may improve the quality of life of patients with brain tumors

This phase II trial is studying how well positron emission tomography (PET) scan using 18F-fluoromisonidazole works when given together with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ) in assessing tumor hypoxia in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Diagnostic procedures, such as MRI and PET scan using 18F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO), may help predict the response of the tumor to the treatment and allow doctors to plan better treatment.

The purpose of the study is to conduct research of a new PET radiopharmaceutical in cancer patients. The uptake of the novel radiopharmaceutical 18F-FPPRGD2 will be assessed in study participants with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), gynecological cancers, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who are receiving antiangiogenesis treatment.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of epidermal growth factor receptor bispecific antibody (EGFRBi)-armed autologous T cells and how well it works in treating patients with glioblastoma that have come back or does not respond to treatment. EGFRBi-armed autologous T cells coated with antibodies (proteins used by the immune system to target and kill foreign objects such as cancer cells) may have great ability to seek out, attach to, and destroy glioblastoma cells.

The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of sorafenib that can be given in combination with temozolomide. The safety of this combination will also be studied.

This phase II trial studies the side effects of autologous dendritic cells pulsed with tumor lysate antigen vaccine and nivolumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back. Vaccines made from a person's tumor cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving dendritic cell-autologous lung tumor vaccine and nivolumab may work better in treating patients with glioblastoma.

This early phase I trial studies the safety and feasibility of inducing a hypothyroxinemic state in patients with glioblastoma or gliosarcoma that has come back (recurrent). This trial aims to see if giving a specific thyroid hormone, such as methimazole and liothyronine, is safe and could benefit cancer treatment.

The primary objective of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of dasatinib when combined with protracted, daily temozolomide (TMZ). Secondary objectives are: To further evaluate the safety and tolerability of dasatinib plus protracted, daily TMZ; 2. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of dasatinib when administered with protracted, daily TMZ among recurrent malignant glioma patients who are on and not on CYP-3A enzyme inducing anti-epileptic drugs (EIAEDs); 3. To evaluate for anti-tumor activity with this regimen in this patient population.
