Trial of Niraparib in Participants With Newly-diagnosed Glioblastoma and Recurrent Glioma
This is an open-label, multi-center Phase 0 study with an expansion phase that will enroll up to 24 participants with newly-diagnosed glioblastoma and up to 18 recurrent glioma participants with IDH mutation and ATRX loss. The trial will be composed of a Phase 0 component (subdivided into Arm A and B) and a therapeutic expansion phase. Patients with tumors demonstrating a positive PK Response (in Arm A) or a positive PD Response (in Arm B) of the Phase 0 component of the study will graduate to a therapeutic expansion phase that combines therapeutic dosing of niraparib plus standard-of-care fractionated radiotherapy (in Arm A) or...

Tris-CAR-T Cell Therapy for Recurrent Glioblastoma
This is a Phase 1 study of recurrent glioblastoma locoregional adoptive therapy with autologous peripheral blood T cells lentivirally transduced to express a dual-target, truncated IL7Ra modified chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), delivered by Ommaya reservoir, a pre-indwelled catheter in the tumor resection cavity or ventricle. Patients with pathological confirmation of glioblastoma and radiological evidence of recurrence are candidates for this clinical trial. If the patient meets all other eligibility criteria, and meets none of the exclusion criteria, will have leukapheresis, and a subsequent Ommaya reservoir implantation. T cells...

Tumor Treating Fields for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma: Two Emulated Trials With Chinese Multi-Hospital Based Real-World Data
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the effectiveness of Optune® (Tumor Treating Fields) in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) in China. The main question it aims to answer are: - The efficacy of Optune® as an concomitant/adjuvant to radiation therapy (RT) and temozolomide (TMZ) alone in the treatment of newly diagnosed GBM patients. - The effectiveness of Optune® given concomitantly with RT and TMZ in newly diagnosed GBM patients, compared to RT and TMZ alone. Participants will: - Receive or not receive TTFields. - Concomitantly or adjuvantly receive TTFields.

Ultrasound-based Blood-brain Barrier Opening and Albumin-bound Paclitaxel and Carboplatin for Recurrent Glioblastoma
Paclitaxel is among the most active agents against glioblastoma in preclinical models. However, its clinical use has been hampered by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In this trial we will implant a novel device with 9 ultrasound emitters allowing to temporarily and reversibly open the BBB immediately prior to chemotherapy infusion with albumin-bound paclitaxel. In the phase 1 component, increasing doses of chemotherapy will be delivered as long deemed safe based on the prior patient not experiencing severe toxicity. Once the the recommended dosing has been established, carboplatin will be added to the regimen and additional...

UNITy-BasED MR-Linac Adaptive Simultaneous Integrated Hypofractionated Boost Trial for High Grade Glioma in the Elderly
The usual standard of care for patients over 65 diagnosed with glioblastoma ("GBM") or Grade 4 astrocytoma, IDH-mutant is a 3-week course of radiotherapy, with concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ). This radiation dose and length of treatment are less than what would be given for younger patients, primarily due to unclear survival benefits from randomized trials. However, survival remains dismal, and may be partially due to the reduced radiation dose. Recent studies investigating this have found that increased radiation dose (to the equivalent of what is normally given over 6 weeks in younger patients) over 3 weeks is ...

UNIty-Based MR-Linac Guided Adaptive RadioThErapy for High GraDe Glioma-3 (UNITED-3)
The goal of this study is to test whether an adaptive radiation therapy (RT), two-phase approach in participants with glioblastoma impacts local control compared to standard non-adaptive RT approach. The main questions of the study are to see how this adaptive, two-phase RT approach compares to standard RT in terms of: - Local control - Overall and progression-free survival - Patterns of failure - Toxicity, Neurological Function, and Quality of Life

Using MRI-Guided Laser Heat Ablation to Induce Disruption of the Peritumoral Blood Brain Barrier to Enhance Delivery and Efficacy of Treatment of Pediatric Brain Tumors
By employing a combination of advanced MRI techniques and correlative serum biomarkers of blood brain barrier (BBB) disruption, the investigators plan to develop a powerful, first of its kind clinical algorithm in pediatrics whereby the investigators can measure and identify the window of maximal BBB disruption post MLA to 1) allow for an alternative to surgery in incompletely resected tumors, 2) allow for optimal chemotherapeutic dosing to achieve the greatest benefits and the least systemic side effects and 3) distinguish subsequent tumor progression from long-term MLA treatment effects. Preliminary data in adult imaging studies ...

Vaccination With Autologous Dendritic Cells Loaded With Autologous Tumour Homogenate in Glioblastoma
Single arm, monocentric trial to assess the safety and the progression-free survival related to the combined treatment of dendritic cell vaccine loaded with autologous tumor homogenate and temozolomide in patients operated for glioblastoma and then treated with standard radiochemotherapy (according to Stupp regimen).

Vacuolar ATPase and Drug Resistance of High Grade Gliomas
GBMs are still considered tumors with few available treatment options that are able only to achieve a temporary local control of the disease. In case of a GBM, tumor recurrence is generally expected within 12 months and it is due to the presence of marginal tumoral cells with pro-oncogenic molecular phenotypes that are resistant to actual chemotherapies and to radiation therapy. Nowadays, surgery still represent the first treatment option in case of suspected GBM and it aims to remove the contrast enhancing lesion seen at the pre-operative brain MRI. In particular, the peripheral layer of the tumor is made of low replicating ...

Verteporfin for the Treatment of Recurrent High Grade EGFR-Mutated Glioblastoma
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of Visudyne (liposomal verteporfin) and to see how well it works in treating patients with high grade EGFR-mutated glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent). Visudyne is FDA approved in combination with light to treat eye diseases. In this study we use Visudyne by itself like chemotherapy to kill tumor cells which may be sensitive to verteporfin.
