Modulation of Ciliogenesis in Glioma Stem Cells
The study aims at investigating the cilium-related transcriptome in patients-derived glioblastoma stem cells and the potential impact of modulation of cilium players in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo in glioblastoma brain organoids. Moreover, drugs inhibiting cilia disassembly will be tested. Finally, the potential prognostic role of a cilium-related gene expression signature in glioblastoma will be assessed.

Monitoring of Patients With Diffuse Gliomas Using Circulating miRNAs
MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs involved in the post-transcriptional regulation of genes and, consequently, of intracellular signalling pathways that govern cellular behaviour (Komatsu et al., 2023). They are widely implicated in oncogenesis, and in particular in mechanisms promoting cell migration, invasion and proliferation (Romano et al., 2021). Several preliminary studies have shown that serum levels of pro-oncogenic microRNAs correlate with tumor rates in gliomas (Jones et al., 2021; Levallet et al., 2022; Morokoff et al., 2020). Morokoff's study showed encouraging but insufficient results on the possibility of using...

MRE Evaluation for Spinal Cord Tumor Surgery: Stiffness and Adhesion Assessment
In spinal cord tumors requiring surgical intervention, the resection difficulty is determined by two significant factors: tumor stiffness and adhesion to surrounding tissue. The stiffness of the tumor dictates the complexity of removal, while strong adhesion presents additional challenges during the surgical procedure. This clinical trial aims to assess the clinical utility of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE), in evaluating the stiffness and adhesion of spinal cord tumors and guiding surgical planning to selecting the most appropriate surgical approach for patients with spinal cord tumors.

MRI Guided Radiotherapy and Radiobiological Data: the ISRAR Database (Irm Sequences for Radiobiological Adaptative Radiotherapy)
The MRI linac Unity is a major technological evolution in radiotherapy combining a linear accelerator with a 1.5T MRI (radiological quality). It allows to target the target volume more precisely and to adapt the daily dose distribution according to variations in the position and volume of the tumor, critical organs and the tumor response. In many studies conducted in radiology, the analysis of specific MRI sequences, particularly in radiomics, aims to characterize tumors and their sensitivity to treatment. Initial data show that in radiotherapy, it would eventually be possible to characterize the radiosensitivity of healthy and...

MSC-DNX-2401 in Treating Patients With Recurrent High-Grade Glioma
This phase I trial studies best dose and side effects of oncolytic adenovirus DNX-2401 in treating patients with high-grade glioma that has come back (recurrent). Oncolytic adenovirus DNX-2401 is made from the common cold virus that has been changed in the laboratory to make it less likely to cause an infection (such as a cold). The virus is also changed to target brain cancer cells and attack them.

Multiparametric MR-Guided High Dose Adaptive Radiotherapy With Concurrent Temozolomide in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
This study will investigate whether or not intensified radiation therapy adapted during the radiation treatment course to high-risk, treatment-resistant tumor regions will improve overall survival in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) compared to conventional chemoradiotherapy.

Multi Peptide Vaccination With XS15 in Addition to Standard Postoperative Radiation Therapy and Temozolomide Chemotherapy in Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
Newly diagnosed HLA-A2-positive MGMT-methylated glioblastoma patients will be vaccinated with a Multi peptide vaccination with Pam3Cys-GDPKHPKSF (XS15) as an immunomodulator in addition to standard postoperative radiation therapy and temozolomide chemotherapy to assess immunogenicity, efficacy, safety of the combination of multipeptide vaccination and the immune modulator XS15 emulsified in Montanide ISA 51 VG

Multiple Doses of Neural Stem Cell Virotherapy (NSC-CRAd-S-pk7) for the Treatment of Recurrent High-Grade Gliomas
This phase I trial studies the effect of multiple doses of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 in treating patients with high-grade gliomas that have come back (recurrent). NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 consists of neural stem cells that carry a virus, which can kill cancer cells. Giving multiple doses of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 may kill more tumor cells.

Multispectral Bimodal Fluorescence Guided Surgery of High-grade Glioma With Cetuximab-800CW and 5-ALA (5-aminolevulinic Acid)
The MIRROR study is a prospective, single center phase I feasibility and dose finding study in patients with high-grade glioma, to establish the safety, feasibility, and optimal dosage of Cetuximab-IRDye800CW for fluorescence guided surgery, in comparison to the standard of care (SOC), 5-ALA fluorescent imaging agent. The main research objectives of this study are: 1. To determine the optimal dosage of Cetuximab-IRDye800CW for fluorescence guided surgery 2. To assess the safety and tolerability 3. To correlate fluorescent signals measured by in vivo multispectral imaging with Cetuximab-IRDye800CW and 5-ALA with those...
