A Ketogenic Diet as a Complementary Treatment on Patients With High-grade Gliomas and Brain Metastases
The survival interval of patients with gliomas ranges between 12 to 15 months. Recent findings revealed that dietary interventions to reduce glucose and glycolytic pathways could have a therapeutic effect. Ketosis can be an effective therapy to extend the survival of patients with gliomas.

A Living Tissue Bank of Patient-Derived Organoids From Glioma Tumors
There is a high medical need to improve treatment outcome for high-grade and low-grade glioma since no curative treatment is available. To achieve this goal, a broader understanding is needed of the causes of inter-and intratumoral heterogeneity; glioma dedifferentiation and invasion; the major determinants of malignancy and treatment failure in glioma patients. Patient-derived organoid (PDOs) of high-grade gliomas and low-grade gliomas will be used to identify the mechanisms that underlie this malignant behaviour and treatment resistance. This insight may be used to develop patient avatars to simultaneously test multiple new treatment modalities that are predictive for...

Allogeneic Expanded Gamma Delta T Cells With GD2 Chemoimmunotherapy in Relapsed /Refractory Neuroblastoma or Refractory/ Relapsed Osteosarcoma
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) of allogeneic expanded γδ T cells when delivered with Dinutuximab, temozolomide, irinotecan, and zoledronate in children with refractory or recurrent neuroblastoma or refractory/ relapsed osteosarcoma as well as to define the toxicities of allogeneic expanded γδ T cells when delivered with Dinutuximab, temozolomide, irinotecan, and zoledronate

Allogeneic γδT Cells in Glioblastoma
This first-in-human clinical study aims to evaluate the safety and feasibility of locally delivered, allogeneic γδ T cells (genetically edited with ARIH1 and BCL11b knockout, designated ABOUT γδT cells) in patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The engineered effector cells are delivered via localized administration to selectively target and eliminate residual GBM cells. ABOUT: ARIH1 and BCL11b knockOUT γδ T cells.

Allogenic Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for the Treatment of Recurrent Glioblastoma or Recurrent Astrocytoma in Patients Undergoing Craniotomy
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of allogenic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AMSCs) in treating patients with glioblastoma or astrocytoma that has come back (recurrent) who are undergoing brain surgery (craniotomy). Glioblastoma is the most common and most aggressive form of primary and malignant tumor of the brain. Currently, the standard of care for this disease includes surgical resection, followed by radiation with chemotherapy and tumor treating fields. Despite this aggressive therapy, the survival after finishing treatment remains low and the disease often reoccurs. Unfortunately, the available therapy options for...

All-Trans Retinoic Acid (ATRA) Plus PD-1 Inhibition in Recurrent IDH-Mutant Glioma
This is a Phase II study of the combination of All-Trans Retinonic Acid (ATRA) and PD-1 inhibition (Retifanlimab) in patient with recurrent IDH-mutant glioma. The Sponsor-Investigator hypothesizes that the proposed regimen will be safe and stimulate a robust anti-tumor immune response.

Alpha/Beta CD19+ Depleted Haploidentical Transplantation + Zometa for Pediatric Hematologic Malignancies and Solid Tumors
This phase I trial studies the safety of transplantation with a haploidentical donor peripheral blood stem cell graft depleted of TCRαβ+ cells and CD19+ cells in conjunction with the immunomodulating drug, Zoledronate, given in the post-transplant period to treat pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies or high risk solid tumors.

Alpha/Beta T and B Cell Depletion With Zoledronic Acid for Solid Tumors
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can cure patients with blood cancer and other underlying diseases. αβ-T cell and B cell depletion has been introduced to decrease GVHD and PTLD and has demonstrated effectiveness for hematologic malignancies and non-malignant diseases additionally increasing the donor pool as to allow for haploidentical transplant to safely occur. While solid tumors can be highly chemotherapy sensitive, many remain resistant and require multimodalities of treatment. Immunotherapy has been developed to harness the immune system in fighting solid tumors, though not all have targeted effects. Some solid tumors are treated with autologous transplants; however,...

AMT-253 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumours
This is a non-randomized, open-label, multicenter Phase I/II study of AMT-253 in patients with Unresectable or Metastatic Malignant Melanoma and other Advanced Solid Tumors. This study include phase I dose escalation and phase II dose expansion.
