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...

Optimizing Neurocognition With Whole Brain Radiation Therapy (WBRT) Using Upfront Pulsed Reduced Dose-Rate (PRDR) Technique
Study patients will receive Whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) - pulsed reduced dose rate (PRDR) within 14 days of registration. All patients will receive single daily fractions using 3D conformal radiotherapy. A dose of 30 Gy in 10 fractions will be delivered using the PRDR technique.

Optune Delivered Electric Field Therapy and Bevacizumab in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Progressive Grade 2 or 3 Meningioma
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effects bevacizumab (the study drug) combined with Optune (the study device) tumor treatment field therapy has on meningiomas. Bevacizumab is considered investigational because the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved its use for the treatment of meningiomas. The study drug is a medication that blocks the growth of new blood vessels. It is thought that the study drug may interfere with the growth of new blood vessels and therefore might stop tumor growth, and possibly shrink the tumor by keeping it from receiving nutrients and oxygen supplied by the blood vessels. Optune is also considered investigational...

Optune for Children With High-Grade Glioma or Ependymoma, and Optune With Radiation Therapy for Children With DIPG
This is a multicenter trial of the Optune device to examine the feasibility and to describe the device-related toxicity in children with supratentorial high grade glioma (HGG) or ependymoma (Stratum 1) and to examine the feasibility and efficacy of concurrent Optune and standard focal radiation therapy (RT) in children with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) (Stratum 2).

Oral Capecitabine and Temozolomide (CAPTEM) for Newly Diagnosed GBM
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of administering the medication capecitabine along with temozolomide when you start your monthly regimen of oral temozolomide for the treatment of your newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Capecitabine is an oral chemotherapy that is given to patients with other types of cancer. The study will evaluate whether the dosage of 1500 mg/m2 of capecitabine is tolerable after radiation, when taken along with temozolomide. It will also try to determine if the medication capecitabine helps patients respond to treatment for a longer period of time compared to just temozolomide alone, which is the standard of care.
