Dose Finding for Intraoperative Photodynamic Therapy of Glioblastoma
The phase II study evaluate a light dose escalation in a classical intraoperative PDT regimen mediated by 5-ALA-PpIX, in glioblastoma patients with access to full surgical removal of the contrast enhancement. This treatment will be performed in addition to the current reference treatment of glioblastoma: maximum removal surgery followed by radiochemotherapy according to the Stupp protocol.

Dose Finding Study of [177Lu]Lu-NeoB in Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma and in Recurrent Glioblastoma
This study will investigate different doses of [177Lu]Lu-NeoB in combination with RT and TMZ in participants with newly diagnosed glioblastoma, with methylated or unmethylated promoter, to assess the safety and efficacy of [177Lu]Lu-NeoB in combination with the SoC and in recurrent glioblastoma as single agent, to identify the recommended dose and to also explore the safety of the PET imaging agent [68Ga]Ga-NeoB and characterize its uptake in the tumor area.

Drug Response Testing and Repurposing Using Glioblastoma Organoid
The aim of this observational study, based on a prospectively collected cohort, is to evaluate the prognostic value of patient-derived organoids in predicting responses to conventional and repurposing drugs, including temozolomide, in patients with primary or recurrent glioblastoma. The primary question is whether the patient's response to temozolomide is recapitulated in their corresponding patient-derived glioblastoma organoid (GBO). Patient drug responses are evaluated using survival data, while GBO drug responses are assessed through a drug-response testing platform utilizing cell viability assays. Additionally, this platform is used to explore the potential application...

EF-41/KEYNOTE D58: Phase 3 Study of Optune Concomitant With Temozolomide Plus Pembrolizumab in Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
This is a multicenter, two-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of Optune® (Tumor Treating Fields at 200 kHz) together with maintenance Temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy agent and pembrolizumab compared to Optune® together with maintenance TMZ and placebo in newly diagnosed Glioblastoma (GBM) patients. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the Overall Survival (OS).

Effect of StRess and ExeRcize on the Outcome After Chemo-Radiation
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly malignant, incurable primary brain tumor. Due to the nature of this disease and the extent of the treatment (surgery followed by chemoradiation according to the Stupp trial) patients undergo considerable psychological distress. It is known that stress hormones are involved in a wide range of processes involved in cell survival, cell cycle and immune function, and can cause therapy resistance. In this study the effect of stress on outcome after chemoradiation in patients with GBM will be investigated.

Efficacy and Safety of TMZ Plus 6-MP in the Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma, the most prevalent malignant tumor in the central nervous system, is characterized by high invasiveness and a propensity to recur, contributing to a relatively elevated mortality rate. Patients diagnosed with high-grade glioblastomas typically experience a median survival period of less than 14 months. Presently, the standard treatment for glioblastoma involves surgical resection combined with postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy, with postoperative chemotherapy playing a pivotal role in enhancing patient prognosis. Temozolomide (TMZ), a cutting-edge oral alkylating agent known for its advantageous properties, including easy traversal of the blood-brain...

Efineptakin Alfa and Pembrolizumab for the Treatment of Recurrent Glioblastoma
This phase II trial tests the safety and side effects of efineptakin alfa and pembrolizumab in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent). Efineptakin alfa is an immunotherapy drug that works by helping the immune system fight tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving efineptakin alfa and pembrolizumab may kill more tumor cells in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

Enhanced Local Intensified Radiation Therapy in Elderly Glioblastoma: A Phase 2 Hybrid Randomized Trial
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive malignancy of the central nervous system. Older adults with GBM have a unique constellation of medical, psychosocial, and supportive care needs. To address these challenges, prior work has evaluated the feasibility of hypofractionation, a treatment approach delivering fewer, larger radiation dosages over a shorter time period. Common hypofractionated regimens deliver a lower biologically equivalent radiation dose than the conventional regimens used for younger adults. Whether dose escalated hypofractionation can further improve outcomes in older adults remains unclear. This will be a hybrid randomized control trial comparing the efficacy and...

Escalated Dose Proton Therapy Within the Multimodality Treatment of Glioblastoma Patients
The goal of this phase 1 dose finding study is to to assess the clinical tolerability and safety of escalated dose proton therapy in glioblastoma patients treated with multimodality treatment, according to treatment volume. The main questions it aims to answer are: - what is the maximum tolerated proton dose in glioblastoma patients? - is the maximum tolerated proton dose in glioblastoma patients dependent on treatment volume? - what is the recommended phase 2 proton dose in glioblastoma patients? Patients will be asked to undergo radiotherapy to step-wise escalated doses using proton therapy as part of their multimodality treatment. Patients will be...
