Phase I Study of Umbilical Cord Blood Natural Killer (NK) Cell Therapy for Children With High-risk, R/R Neuroblastoma.
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor, with more than half of the patients diagnosed at the metastatic stage, classified as high-risk. High-risk neuroblastoma has a poor prognosis and low survival rate. Despite treatment with induction, consolidation, and maintenance therapy including GD2 monoclonal antibody, the survival rate is only about 60%, and many patients still relapse, progress, and die. NK cell therapy is an emerging immunotherapy that can effectively inhibit and kill tumor cells without significant adverse reactions, reducing the risk of tumor recurrence and metastasis, and improving patients' immunity and quality of life. Its safety has...

Ph I/II Trial of Systemic VSV-IFNβ-NIS in Combination With Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy in Patients With Select Solid Tumors
The safety run-in portion of this study is designed to identify the optimal dose of VSV-IFNβ-NIS in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with solid tumors and follows the 3+3 design. The expansion portion will use one-sample binomial designs to assess the efficacy of the combination in patients with refractory NSCLC or NEC. The optimal dose (RP2D) determined in the dose escalation portion of the trial will be used for the expansion portion. The study has been conducted with a dose of 1.7 × 1010 as the recommended phase II dose in an expansion cohort of 10 patients with NSCLC. However, current data suggests that VSV-IFNβ-NIS doses of up to 1.7 × 1011 is safe and likely...

Photodynamic Diagnosis for Malignant Brain Glioma With 5-Aminolevulinic Acid（5-ALA）
This trial is an open-label, multicenter, phase III clinical study，conducted in patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent malignant high-grade (WHO grades 3~4) glioma, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a single oral dose of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) oral solution powder for fluorescence-guided tumor resection and photodynamic diagnosis.

PHP in Combination With IPI1/NIVO3 Compared to IPI3/NIVO1 Only in Patients With Uveal Melanoma Liver Metastases
Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults. Despite successful control of the primary tumor, metastatic disease will develop in approximately 35%-50% of the patients within 10 years. The liver is the most common site for metastases, and about 50% of the patients will have isolated liver metastases. These metastases are generally refractory to systemic chemotherapy and the median survival for patients with liver metastases is about 6 months. Regardless of treatment, the mortality rate is approximately 90% at 2 years with only about 1% of the patients surviving more than 5 years. The primary objective with this study is to evaluate progression-free...

Physiological MRI for Precision Radiotherapy IDH-wildtype Glioblastoma
After surgery, a key step in treatment of patients diagnosed with glioblastoma (high grade brain tumour) is radiotherapy. The ideal clinical target volume (CTV) for radiotherapy treatment planning includes all tumour cells remaining after surgery. Currently, the GTV is delineated on conventional imaging techniques that are only visualizing macroscale structural changes due to the presence of a large number of tumour cells. After delineating these visible macroscale changes, the GTV is expanded in all directions with 1.5cm into visibly healthy tissue to account for microscale tumour invasion. This standard CTV therefore also contains healthy tissue that should not be receiving...

Pilot Study for Detection of PSMA-Low CRPC-NE Tumors With Fluciclovine PET/CT
This research study is studying a positron emission tomography (PET) agent called 18F-fluciclovine to evaluate how well 18F-fluciclovine-PET scans determine the extent of advanced prostate cancer that either has low prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expression or has neuroendocrine features. The name of the study interventions are: - 18F-fluciclovine-PET/CT scan - Two research blood collections

Pilot Study of Vinblastine and Tovorafenib in Pediatric Patients With Recurrent/Progressive RAF Altered Low Grade Gliomas
This is a Pilot, multicenter, open-label study of patients less than or equal to 25 years, with recurrent or progressive LGG harboring a CRAF or BRAF alteration, including BRAF V600 mutations and KIAA1549: BRAF fusions. Patients with BRAF or CRAF alterations will be identified through molecular assays as routinely performed at Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) of 1988 or other similarly certified laboratories. The study will be conducted in two sequential phases: Phase A: A Feasibility (combination dose finding) phase, followed by Phase B: An Efficacy phase. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of the combination as determined in...

Pilot Trial for Treatment of Recurrent Glioblastoma
This will be a single-arm open-label prospective pilot feasibility trial recruiting 10 adult patients with recurrent glioblastoma who are assigned to receive the personalized study treatment based on the genetic profile of their recurrent GBM tumor resected at the time of surgery. It will be aimed to gather preliminary information on the study intervention and the feasibility of conducting a full-scale trial.

Pivotal Study of Proton Radiotherapy Treatments Using Fixed Beam Chair-Based Delivery System
This study with Chair-Based, Gantry-less Proton System (CBGS) (aka P-CURE Proton Beam Therapy System or Fixed Beam Chair-based Delivery System) is composed of 3 arms, as following: ARM1: Patients with locally recurrent, previously irradiated thoracic cancer indicated for re- irradiation. ARM2: Patients with recurrent Head and Neck, Brain and Spinal Cord tumors, indicated for re- irradiation. ARM3: Patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer. The primary objectives of the study for all arms are: 1. to describe the efficacy (local control after 3 month) and acute toxicity for patients treated with a fully-integrated CBGS and (2) to compare treatment plans between the...
