ONC201 in H3 K27M-mutant Diffuse Glioma Following Radiotherapy (the ACTION Study)
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, international, Phase 3 study in patients with newly diagnosed H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma to assess whether treatment with ONC201 following frontline radiotherapy will extend overall survival and progression-free survival in this population. Eligible participants will have histologically diagnosed H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma and have completed standard frontline radiotherapy.

ONC206 for Treatment of Newly Diagnosed, Recurrent Diffuse Midline Gliomas, and Other Recurrent Malignant CNS Tumors
This phase I trial studies the effects and best dose of ONC206 alone or in combination with radiation therapy in treating patients with diffuse midline gliomas that is newly diagnosed or has come back (recurrent) or other recurrent primary malignant CNS tumors. ONC206 is a recently discovered compound that may stop cancer cells from growing. This drug has been shown in laboratory experiments to kill brain tumor cells by causing a so called "stress response" in tumor cells. This stress response causes cancer cells to die, but without affecting normal cells. ONC206 alone or in combination with radiation therapy may be effective in treating newly diagnosed or recurrent diffuse midline...

Oncolytic Virus Ad-TD-nsIL12 for Primary Pediatric Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma
This is a drug safety assessment clinical trial with a 3+3 dose escalation design, to observe the safety, tolerability and toxicity of a novel oncolytic virus Ad-TD-nsIL12 intratumoral injection in primary DIPG patients (NCI-CTCAE V5.0).

Oncolytic Virus Ad-TD-nsIL12 for Progressive Pediatric Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma
This is a single-arm, single-center, drug safety assessment clinical trial with a 3+3 dose escalation design, to observe the safety, tolerability and toxicity of a novel oncolytic virus Ad-TD-nsIL12 intratumoral injection in progressive DIPG patients (NCI-CTCAE V5.0).

Online Study of People Who Have Genetic Changes and Features of Autism: Simons Searchlight
Simons Searchlight is an observational, online, international research program for families with rare genetic variants that cause neurodevelopmental disorders and may be associated with autism. Simons Searchlight collects medical, behavioral, learning, and developmental information from people who have these rare genetic changes. The goal of this study is to improve the clinical care and treatment for these people. Simons Searchlight partners with families to collect data and distribute it to qualified researchers.

Ontario-wide Cancer TArgeted Nucleic Acid Evaluation
Substantial progress has been made in the treatment of cancer through the use of targeted therapies, but what works for one patient might not work for another patient. Certain drugs are now being developed that target specific molecules in the body that are believed to be part of the disease. Biomarkers are specific characteristics of the cancer that may help provide prognostic information (e.g. how well patients will be regardless of the treatments given) or help predict sensitivity or resistance to a specific treatment. The study will collect archival tumor samples (previously collected biopsy or surgical tumor samples) to provide biomarker data about a patient's cancer,...

Open Label Phase 2 Basket Trial With Atezolizumab and Tiragolumab in Solid Tumors
In this open label phase II trial combination therapy with the anti-PD-L1 antibody atezolizumab and the anti-TIGIT antibody tiragolumab will be investigated in patients with localized HNSCC who will undergo surgery, advanced or metastatic MSI-H cancer, PD-1 resistant metastatic melanoma, and patients with a locally advanced or metastatic solid tumor who, in the opinion of the investigator, based on available clinical data, may benefit from treatment with anti-PD-L1 and anti-TIGIT immunotherapy.

Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of the Oncolytic HSV1 MVR-C5252
This is a Phase 1 open label study designed to assess the safety and tolerability of the oncolytic herpes simplex virus 1 (oHSV1) study drug, MVR-C5252, administered intratumorally by convection-enhanced delivery (CED) in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma. Once the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is established in the dose escalation portion of the trial, a dose expansion cohort at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wildtype recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) will evaluate preliminary efficacy of the study drug.

Opioid-free Anesthesia Protocol for Neurosurgical Supratentorial Tumor Resection
Opioids have many side effects, such as constipation, urinary retention, itchy skin, respiratory depression, and postoperative nausea and vomiting. These side effects can lead to delayed recovery, longer hospital stays, and increased health care costs. Opioid-free anesthesia is the combination of anti-nociceptive drugs to block the different pathways involved in the transmission of nociceptive information, control pain, avoid opioid-related adverse reactions, and promote patient recovery. At present, opioid-free anesthesia is not widely used in craniocerebral surgery in neurosurgery, and the relevant clinical data are extensive. Therefore, the investigators urgently need...
