Tracing Brain Tumors Through Deep Time
Brain tumors involve different age groups with a wide range of tumor types involving different anatomical compartments of the brain. The evolution of the brain in vertebrates, including the most recent homo species (including humans), has occurred through increasing structural complexity in more evolved species. In the retrospective study, we will investigate the location of the tumors and different structural aspects of skull anatomy in patients with brain tumors. The information will be compared with the anatomical evolution of the brain and skull in vertebrates to look for possible associations, which can provide insights into evolutionary biology.

Trametinib and Everolimus for Treatment of Pediatric and Young Adult Patients With Recurrent Gliomas (PNOC021)
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of trametinib and everolimus in treating pediatric and young adult patients with gliomas that have come back (recurrent). Trametinib acts by targeting a protein in cells called MEK and disrupting tumor growth. Everolimus is a drug that may block another pathway in tumor cells that can help tumors grow. Giving trametinib and everolimus may work better to treat low and high grade gliomas compared to trametinib or everolimus alone.

Tranexamic Acid Use for Bleeding Prevention in the Surgical Treatment of Metastatic Spinal Tumor in Lung Cancer Patients
Massive blood loss occurs in metastatic spinal tumor resection and may cause severe complications. The objective of this study is to investigate whether the use of tranexamic acid will reduce perioperative and postoperative bleeding when compared to those without use of tranexamic acid.

Transgenerational Metabolic-Immune Biomarkers of Neurological and Neurodevelopmental Disorders
The study involves up to 5 visits for a fasting blood draw, behavioral assessments, and/or questionnaires. Other samples may be collected when appropriate. This study is currently recruiting. There is no cost for visits or study-related exams.

TRAQinform Assessment of Immunotherapy Response
The intent of this study is to evaluate the actionable information output from the TRAQinform Immuno technology in a prospective, non-interventional clinical study. Subjects with metastatic melanoma treated with standard of care (SOC) dual-agent immunotherapy will be enrolled. Subjects will receive SOC immunotherapy monitored for treatment response with FDG PET/CT's at baseline (SOC), after 3-4 weeks of treatment (non-SOC) and 12 at weeks of treatment (SOC).

Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) for People With Brain Cancer
The purpose of this study is to find out how much tratuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) can penetrate the tumor when injected into the body, and whether T-DXd may be an effective treatment for brain cancers that express the HER2 protein.

Treatment Intensification With Temozolomide in Adults With a Glioblastoma
Due to conflicting data on the optimal moment to start TMZ chemotherapy and the impact of prolongation of the adjuvant phase with TMZ, the ANOCEF (Association des Neuro-Oncologues d'Expression Francophone) group proposes this randomized trial comparing an intensified arm (early TMZ and extended adjuvant TMZ until toxicity, progression or patient refusal) versus the classical EORTC regimen as control (RT and concomitant TMZ started 4-6 weeks after surgery followed by a number of adjuvant TMZ cycles strictly limited to 6) for primary GBM adult patients.

Treatment of Advanced Endocrine Tumor With Iindividualized mRNA Neoantigen Vaccine (mRNA-0523-L001)
Treatment of advanced endocrine tumors, including adrenal corticocarcnioma (ACC), medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), thymic neuroendocrine tumor and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor is challenging. Previous genomic profiling studies showed they presented a number of somatic mutations. The tumors Individualized mRNA neoantigen vaccine provide a promising solution since a significant portion of these tumors showed high quality of tumor specific neoantigen. The primary objective is to observe and evaluate the safety and tolerability of individualized mRNA neoantigen vaccine (mRNA-0523-L001) for the treatment of advanced endocrine tumors, failure of standard treatment or no standard...

Treatment of BRAF ( B-Rapidly Accelerated Fibrosarcoma) Mutated Papillary Craniopharyngioma
Subjects with papillary craniopharyngioma harboring a BRAF mutation will be treated with a BRAF + MEK inhibitor (dabrafenib + trametinib) after informed consent. Study participants will be administered oral dabrafenib and trametinib until maximal tumor volume reduction assessed by MRI. Progression free survival, cognition, ophthalmologic status, hypothalamic status and quality of life will be assessed 1 year after initiation of study treatment

Treatment of Patients With Recurrent High-Grade Glioma With APG-157 and Bevacizumab
The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the efficacy of APG-157 in combination with Bevacizumab in subjects with recurrent high-grade glioma. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Progression-free and overall survival of patients receiving this combination; - Quality of Life (QOL); and - Tumor response on imaging The participants will take APG-157 daily by dissolving two pastilles in their mouth at around breakfast, lunch and dinner time (total of six pastilles per day). The pastilles dissolve in the mouth. The participants will continue to receive Bevacizumab as standard of care.
