Phase II Avastin + Bortezomib for Patients With Recurrent Malignant Glioma
Primary Objective To estimate 6-month progression free survival probability of patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme treated with bortezomib plus Avastin. This efficacy assessment will be made separately among patients on enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic drugs and non enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic drugs. Secondary Objectives To evaluate safety & tolerability of bortezomib plus Avastin among patients with recurrent malignant glioma. To evaluate radiographic response, progression free survival & overall survival of patients with recurrent malignant glioma treated with bortezomib plus Avastin

Phase IIb Clinical Trial With TGF-β2 Antisense Compound AP 12009 for Recurrent or Refractory High-grade Glioma
In this multinational dose finding Phase IIb study the efficacy and safety of two doses of AP 12009 compared to standard chemotherapy (temozolomide or PCV) is investigated in adult patients with confirmed recurrent high-grade glioma.

Phase II Feasibility Study of Dendritic Cell Vaccination for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme
Adult patients who have surgical resection of newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme will be treated with radiotherapy/chemotherapy followed by dendritic cell vaccine. Chemotherapy will be administered after three vaccinations for one year or until progression of disease.

Phase I/II Adaptive Randomized Trial of Bevacizumab Versus Bevacizumab Plus Vorinostat in Adults With Recurrent Glioblastoma
The goal of this Phase I portion of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of bevacizumab with or without vorinostat, that can be given to patients with malignant gliomas. The safety of these drug combinations will also be studied. The goal of this Phase II part of this clinical research study is to learn if bevacizumab when given with or without vorinostat can help to control malignant gliomas. The safety of these drug combinations will also be studied.

Phase I/II Evaluation of Temozolomide and ZARNESTRA (R115777) for Recurrent and Progressive Glioblastoma Multiforme
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest safe dose of the new drug ZARNESTRA (R115777) and temozolomide that can be given to patients with brain tumors (glioblastoma multiforme, GBM). The second goal is to learn if these drugs given in combination can shrink or slow the growth of brain tumors. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.

Phase I-II Everolimus and Sorafenib in Recurrent High-Grade Gliomas
The goal of Phase 1 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose and best schedule of the combination of everolimus and sorafenib that can be given to patients with malignant glioma. The goal of Phase 2 of this study to learn if the combination of everolimus and sorafenib can help to control malignant glioma. The safety of this combination will also be studied in both phases.

Phase II Imatinib + Hydroxyurea in Treatment of Patients With Recurrent/Progressive Grade II Low-Grade Glioma (LGG)
Primary objective: - To evaluate activity of imatinib mesylate and hydroxyurea among patients with progressive/recurrent grade II low-grade glioma (LGG) as measured by 12-month progression free survival Secondary objectives: - To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival and objective response rate among patients with progressive/recurrent grade II LGG treated with imatinib mesylate plus hydroxyurea - To assess safety and tolerability of imatinib mesylate + hydroxyurea in this population

Phase III Study of Rindopepimut/GM-CSF in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
This 2-arm, randomized, phase III study will investigate the efficacy and safety of the addition of rindopepimut (an experimental cancer vaccine that may act to promote anti-cancer effects in patients who have tumors that express the EGFRvIII protein) to the current standard of care (temozolomide) in patients with recently diagnosed glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. All patients will be administered temozolomide, the standard treatment for glioblastoma. Half the patients will be randomly assigned to receive rindopepimut and half the patients will be randomly assigned to receive a control called keyhole limpet hemocyanin. Patients will be treated in a blinded fashion...

Phase I/II Study To Test The Safety and Efficacy of TVI-Brain-1 As A Treatment For Recurrent Grade IV Glioma
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.
