Radiation Combined With BIspecific T-Cell Engager in DLL3 Expressing Tumors
Phase I study to examine safety of the addition of concurrent tarlatamab with standard palliative and consolidative RT regimens , with a main cohort of N=20-24 patients with extracranial anatomic radiation sites. I) After lead in of 10 patients demonstrating safety of treatment, allow for expansion to cranial sites of disease (N=6-10) with continued enrollment in main cohort II) If toxicity criteria is not met in concurrent RT tarlatamab cohort, we will continue with sequential RT, either A) delivered within 7 days prior to cycle 1 day 1, or B) delivered during cycle 1 -2 but with pre- and post-RT washout of 7 days with no drug during RT, to examine safety in a temporally spaced...

Radiodynamic Therapy (RDT) With Gliolan in Patients With First Recurrence of Brain Tumor
The investigational drug 5-ALA (known under the trade name Gliolan®) is an approved drug for the surgical removal of malignant glioma (WHO grade III and IV). In this trial, the drug is being tested outside of its actual approval as a radiosensitizer in combination with conventional radiotherapy for first-time recurrence (relapse) of malignant glioma. In this clinical trial, the investigational drug 5-ALA is being used for the first time in a multiple dose escalation regimen in combination with radiotherapy following surgical removal of a recurrent malignant glioma in humans. The investigational drug, 5-ALA, has been used as a single dose to date as a standard of care for...

Radioimmunotherapy in Solid Tumors (PNRR-MCNT2-2023-12378239-Aim2)
This is a prospective multicenter study of hypofractionated radiotherapy for the radiation treatment (RT) of solid tumors and in particular for Glioblastoma (in Aim 2). It is based on the results of ongoing studies at our Institute to validate the efficacy of extremely hypofractionated RT in neoadjuvant settings, which observed immunostimulatory effects of RT and the synergy with immune components. The collaboration between San Raffaele Hospital (Milan), the IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori Fondazione G. Pascale (Naples) and the San Giuseppe Moscati Hospital of National Relief and High Specialty (Avellino) will ensure that patient recruitment, treatment and monitoring can be...

Radioimmunotherapy with Lu-177 Labeled 6A10 Fab-fragments in Patients with Glioblastoma After Standard Treatment
Locoregional, intracavitary radioimmunotherapy (iRIT) with a newly developed radioimmunoconjugate (Lu-177 labeled 6A10-Fab-fragments) will be used to prevent or postpone tumour recurrence in patients with GBM following standard therapy . Following study objectives will be analyzed: - Determining the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) - Determining safety by assessing all new neurological, hematological and other AEs CTC grade 2 or higher - Determining absorbed dose to the 2 cm shell of the resection cavity (based on a series of SPECT/CTs of the head 2h,24h,48h, 72h p.i. and on day 5-7) - Determining absorbed dose values for the kidneys, the liver, the...

Registering Genomics and Imaging of Tumors (ReGIT)
This study is investigating how brain tumors might mutate over time, and whether new brain imaging tools like MRI and PET can predict these mutations.

Registry of Patients With Brain Tumors Treated With STaRT (GammaTiles)
The objectives of this registry study are to evaluate real-world clinical outcomes and patient reported outcomes that measure the effectiveness and safety of STaRT.

Regorafenib for Recurrent Grade 2 and 3 Meningioma (MIRAGE Trial)
The focus of this study will be to investigate whether Regorafenib demonstrates antitumor activity against recurrent grade II or III meningiomas. Small trials and case series suggest clinical relevant activity of several VEGF inhibitors such as sunitinib, bevacizumab and valatinib reporting a 6m-PFS rate of 42-64%. Indeed, VEGF and VEGF receptors (VEGFR) are regularly overexpressed in meningiomas and can correlate with outcome. Regorafenib inhibits angiogenic receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and is highly selective for VEGFR1/2/3; moreover Regorafenib inhibits PDGFRB, FGFR1 and oncogenic intracellular signalling cascades involving c-RAF/RAF1 and BRAF highly expressed in...

Repeated Super-selective Intraarterial Cerebral Infusion of Bevacizumab (Avastin) for Treatment of Relapsed GBM and AA
The high-grade malignant brain tumors, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and anaplastic astrocytoma (AA), comprise the majority of all primary brain tumors in adults. This group of tumors also exhibits the most aggressive behavior, resulting in median overall survival durations of only 9-12 months for GBM, and 3-4 years for AA. Initial therapy consists of either surgical resection, external beam radiation or both. All patients experience a recurrence after first-line therapy, so improvements in both first-line and salvage therapy are critical to enhancing quality-of-life and prolonging survival. It is unknown if currently used intravenous (IV) therapies even cross the blood brain...

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 Superselective Intraarterial Cerebral Infusion (SIACI)...

Research on the Safety and Efficacy of Blocking Dural Blood Supply in Glioblastoma Patients
Glioblastoma is the most common primary malignancy of the central nervous system with a very poor prognosis. Most of the immunotherapies that have made significant breakthroughs in the treatment of other tumors in recent years are unsatisfactory in the application of glioblastoma, which is mainly inseparable from the highly inhibitory immune microenvironment formed by the latter. Therefore, how to change this "immune desert" and better activate immune effector cells to play an anti-tumor effect is currently a hot spot in glioma immune research. In recent years, there has been continuous research support that the myeloid cells of the central nervous system are partly derived from...
