Study of Zotiraciclib for Recurrent High-Grade Gliomas With Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 or 2 (IDH1...

Brain TumorCancer

Background: Diffuse gliomas are tumors that affect the brain and spinal cord. Gliomas that develop in people with certain gene mutations (IDH1 or IDH2) are especially aggressive. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To see if a study drug (zotiraciclib) is effective in people with recurrent diffuse gliomas who have IDH1 or IDH2 mutations. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with diffuse gliomas that returned after treatment. They must also have mutations in the IDH1 or IDH2 genes. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have tests of their heart function. They will have an MRI of their brain. A new biopsy may be needed if previous results are not available. Zotiraciclib is a capsule taken by mouth with a glass of water. Participants will take the drug at home on days 1, 4, 8, 11, 15, and 18 of a 28-day cycle. They may also be given medications to prevent side effects of the study drug. The schedule for taking the study drug may vary for participants who will undergo surgery. Participants will be given a medication diary for each cycle. They will write down the date and time of each dose of the study drug. Participants will visit the clinic about once a month. They will have a physical exam, blood tests, and tests to evaluate their heart function. An MRI of the brain will be repeated every 8 weeks. Participants may remain in the study for up to 18 cycles (1.5 years). ...

Pivotal Study of Proton Radiotherapy Treatments Using Fixed Beam Chair-Based Delivery System

Thoracic CancerPancreatic Cancer Non-resectable3 more

This study with Chair-Based, Gantry-less Proton System (CBGS) (aka P-CURE Proton Beam Therapy System or Fixed Beam Chair-based Delivery System) is composed of 3 arms, as following: ARM1: Patients with locally recurrent, previously irradiated thoracic cancer indicated for re- irradiation. ARM2: Patients with recurrent Head and Neck, Brain and Spinal Cord tumors, indicated for re- irradiation. ARM3: Patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer. The primary objectives of the study for all arms are: 1. to describe the efficacy (local control after 3 month) and acute toxicity for patients treated with a fully-integrated CBGS and (2) to compare treatment plans between the fully-integrated CBGS and Photon therapy defined for each patient, based upon OAR sparing for comparable target coverage.

A Ketogenic Diet as a Complementary Treatment on Patients With High-grade Gliomas and Brain Metastases...

BrainCancer

The survival interval of patients with gliomas ranges between 12 to 15 months. Recent findings revealed that dietary interventions to reduce glucose and glycolytic pathways could have a therapeutic effect. Ketosis can be an effective therapy to extend the survival of patients with gliomas.

Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of Percutaneous Ommaya Capsule Injection of Autologous Bi-dimensional...

GliomaBrain Metastases

Cerebral metastases are common intracranial tumor, its incidence increased year by year, in recent years, although the whole brain radiation therapy, surgical resection, stereotactic radiosurgery treatment, targeted drugs, and other comprehensive treatment in patients with symptoms of mitigation and the extension of survival has played a positive role, but due to individual differences, treatment in patients with poor compliance were a lot of factors, Further treatment of brain metastases after conventional treatment requires the assistance and cooperation of clinical multi-disciplines. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous Ommaya capsule injection of autologous bi-dimensional specific T cells in the treatment of glioma and combined with pemetrexed in the treatment of brain/meningeal metastasis. Using translational research techniques and means, to find molecular indicators related to clinical prognosis and outcome, establish the clinical use standard of this holistic treatment technology, and popularize it in multi-centers.

A Phase II Study of Pre-Op SRS Followed by Surgical Resection for Brain Metastases

Brain MetastasesAdult

This is a research study to determine if performing stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) prior to surgical resection of the brain metastasis (tumor) will improve local control, in other words, increase the possibility of total removal of the primary tumor without local recurrence on longterm follow up. This research study will also determine if pre-operative SRS will lower the risk of radionecrosis that is the breakdown of body tissue at the original tumor site, and the development of leptomeningeal disease.

UCSD Image-Guided Cognitive-Sparing Radiosurgery for Brain Metastases

Brain MetastasesAdult2 more

In this proposal, the investigators introduce advanced diffusion and volumetric imaging techniques along with innovative, automated image parcellation methods to identify critical brain regions, incorporate into cognitive-sparing SRS, and analyze biomarkers of radiation response. This work will advance the investigators' understanding of neurocognitive changes after brain SRS and help create interventions that preserve cognitive-function in brain metastases patients.
