Repeated Superselective Intraarterial Cerebral Infusion (SIACI) of Bevacizumab With Temozolomide and Radiation Compared to Temozolomide and Radiation Alone in Newly Diagnosed GBM
Primary brain cancer kills up to 10,000 Americans a year. These brain tumors are typically treated by surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, either individually or in combination. Present therapies are inadequate, as evidenced by the low 5-year survival rate for brain cancer patients, with median survival at approximately 12 months. Glioma is the most common form of primary brain cancer, afflicting approximately 7,000 patients in the United States each year. These highly malignant cancers remain a significant unmet clinical need in oncology. The investigators have completed a Phase I clinical trial that has shown that...

Repurposed Drugs in Research for Cancer Clinical Trials- Pitavastatin
The goal of this Phase 0 trial is to study if pre-operative oral pitavastatin administration reaches the tumour in patients with primary or a recurrent glioblastoma. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does pitavastatin reach a cytotoxic concentration in gadolinium-enhanced tumour tissue after oral administration? - Does pitavastatin achieve a concentration that can synergize with temozolomide in the gadolinium non-enhanced area of the tumour? Participants will receive pitavastatin in differing dosages a week before their elective surgery and blood and tumour samples will be collected.

Response Assessment During MR-guided Radiation Therapy for Glioblastoma
The study seeks to assess the response of glioblastoma multiforme to treatment using weekly low field (0.35 T) MR-images of the brain at a MRIdian® linac system during standard radiotherapy at the same system. A total of 20 patients in a single arm will be recruited for this investigation. The imaging data will be used to evaluate the change in tumor volume over the course of the treatment and to perform radiomics in order to investigate the possibility of response prediction using these images. In order to assure sufficient image quality, prior to the main investigation, a group of up to 20 volunteers has MR scans taken...

Restrictive Use of Dexamethasone in Glioblastoma
The administration of steroids, most commonly dexamethasone (DEX), has established as standard of care during treatment of glioblastoma (GBM) and is widely used during the entire course of the disease including pre- and postoperative management, chemo- and radiotherapy. The primary purpose is to reduce tumor-associated vasogenic edema and to prevent or treat increased intracranial pressure. However, steroids are also linked to a multitude of adverse side effects that may affect survival of GBM patients such as major immunosuppression. The use of steroids during radiotherapy is associated with reduced overall- and progression-free ...

RMC-5552 Monotherapy in Adult Subjects With Recurrent Glioblastoma
This phase I/Ib trial tests the side effects, best dose, tolerability, and effectiveness of RMC-5552 in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent). RMC-5552 is a type of medicine called an mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor. These types of drugs prevent the formation of a specific group of proteins called mTOR. This protein controls cancer cell growth, and the study doctors believe stopping mTOR from forming may help to kill tumor cells.

Role of Repeat Resection in Recurrent Glioblastoma
Patients with recurrent Glioblastoma (GBM) are commonly presented to surgeons, along with the question of whether or not to re-resect the recurrence. There is no Level 1 evidence to support a role for repeat surgery in this context, but a multitude of observational research suggests that repeat surgery may improve quality survival. Unfortunately, these studies all suffer from selection bias. The goal of this study is to provide a care trial context to help neurosurgeons manage patients presenting with recurrent GBM, with no additional risks, tests, or interventions than what they would normally encounter in routine care. Secondary...

Safety and Effectiveness of ABM-168 in Adults With Advanced Solid Tumors.
This is a Phase 1, First-in-Human (FIH), open-label, multicenter, dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary anti-tumor activity of ABM-168 in adult patients with RAS or RAF or NF-1 mutated advanced solid tumors as ABM-168 may have a significant effect in inhibiting cell growth.

Safety and Efficacy of L19TNF Plus Temozolomide Chemoradiotherapy in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
The purpose of this study is to explore the safety profile and establish a recommended dose (RD) for phase II of the antibody-cytokine fusion protein L19TNF plus standard TMZ chemoradiotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The study will be conducted in three consecutive parts: a dose finding part to determine the RD of L19TNF in combination with chemoradiotherapy, followed by a signal seeking part that investigates first signs of activity and then an activity evaluation part that studies the efficacy of L19TNF in combination with chemoradiotherapy against chemoradiotherapy alone.

Safety and Efficacy of NEO212 in Patients With Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype or Brain Metastasis
This multi-site, Phase 1/2 clinical trial is an open-label study to identify the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 for the treatment of patients with radiographically-confirmed progression of Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype, and the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 when given with select SOC for the treatment of solid tumor patients with radiographically confirmed uncontrolled brain metastasis. The study will have three phases, Phase 1, Phase 2a and Phase 2b.
