Efficacy Study of CYT997 in Combination With Carboplatin in Glioblastoma
This study seeks to (i) determine the safe dose of CYT997 when given in combination with carboplatin in patients with relapsed glioblastoma multiforme (glioma) and (ii) to determine whether the combination of CYT997 with carboplatin is a useful treatment for glioma.

EGFRvIII CAR T Cells for Newly-Diagnosed WHO Grade IV Malignant Glioma
Please note that enrollment on this study terminated early due to the end of grant funding. Newly diagnosed WHO grade IV malignant glioma subjects who are eligible were enrolled following surgery to remove their brain tumor. They then underwent a leukapheresis to harvest cells for the generation of the study drug, Epidermal Growth Factor variant III Chimeric Antigen Receptor (EGFRvIII CAR) T cells prior to beginning standard of care (SOC) radiation therapy (RT) with temozolomide (TMZ). Once SOC RT with TMZ was completed, subjects returned for the post-RT brain imaging assessment, and, if stable, started post-RT TMZ cycles. Patients received up to 3 cycles of dose-intensified TMZ...

Erlotinib Hydrochloride and Isotretinoin in Treating Patients With Recurrent Malignant Glioma
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of erlotinib hydrochloride when given with isotretinoin in treating patients with recurrent malignant glioma. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Isotretinoin may help cells that are involved in the body's immune response to work better. Giving erlotinib hydrochloride together with isotretinoin may kill more tumor cells

Erlotinib in Treating Patients With Progressive Glioblastoma Multiforme
RATIONALE: Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of erlotinib in treating patients with progressive glioblastoma multiforme.

Erlotinib in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme or Gliosarcoma
RATIONALE: Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well erlotinib works in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme or gliosarcoma.

Evaluating Tumor Pseudoprogression With FLT-PET and MRI
A standard treatment for glioblastoma is a combination of radiation and the drug temozolomide. This combination sometimes causing swelling (inflammation) of the brain tissue. When standard monitoring with MRI or CT scans is done within a few months of finishing treatment, it may be hard to tell if the scans are showing post-treatment brain inflammation or tumor growth and worsening of disease. Currently the only way to definitively distinguish inflammation from tumor growth is biopsy. However, biopsy is an invasive procedure that is associated with risks. Having a non-invasive method to distinguish post-treatment inflammation from tumor growth can help improve care for patients...

Evaluation of Circulating Tumor DNA as a Theranostic Marker in the Management of Glioblastomas.
Glioblastomas (GBM) are rare tumors of poor prognosis and their treatment is based on surgery followed by radiochemotherapy. Clinical and imaging evaluation is not always straightforward: the more or less complete surgery, the pseudo-progression after radiochemotherapy, the radionecrosis, the diagnosis of the relapse and the follow-up under anti-angiogenic can pose problems Clinicians and radiologists. Accessibility to a plasma tumor molecular marker would greatly facilitate the follow-up of these patients. It is now established for many cancers that circulating tumor DNA (cTNA) has the same molecular abnormalities as those identified in the primary tumor cells. Numerous...

Feasibility of the LUM Imaging System for Detection of Cancer to the Brain
The overall objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the LUM Imaging System in imaging primary and metastatic cancer in the brain. This includes selecting a dose to determine the initial efficacy of LUM015 for the molecular imaging of low-grade gliomas, glioblastomas and cancer masses that have metastasized to the brain.

Feasibility Study on LITT for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
Multicenter, open-label, prospective designed study to characterize the performance of brain laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) ablation using the Monteris NeuroBlate System in combination with standard of care radiation therapy and temozolomide for the treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastomas (GBM).
