AV-GBM-1 vs Control as Adjunctive Therapy Following Surgery and RT/TMZ in Newly Diagnosed GBM
This is a multi-center, double-blind, 2:1 randomized phase III trial to determine whether the addition of AV-GBM-1, a therapeutic, patient-specific dendritic cell vaccine, to standard therapy increases OS of patients with a recent diagnosis of primary GBM. The intent is to enroll approximately 726 patients for tumor collection to enroll 690 who are eligible for treatment at the time of randomization and who have granted consent for participation. Because of the lack of toxicity, there are no restrictions related to performance status or blood tests at the time of treatment. The key endpoint is OS from date of first injection after...

Azoles Targeting Recurrent High Grade Gliomas
High-grade gliomas are the most common and aggressive type of brain cancer. Scientists don't fully understand how they grow and spread, and treatments haven't improved much in recent years. However, it's been discovered that these cancers rely heavily on using glucose to maintain their cancerous traits. In lab tests, drugs from the azole class, which target a key step in glucose metabolism, have shown promise in reducing tumor growth in these cancers. Researchers now want to test two of these drugs, ketoconazole and posaconazole, in patients with recurring high-grade gliomas. A small group of these patients will receive either one or ...

B-amyloid as a Marker for GBM Bioimaging
This project is aimed at improvement of glioblastoma (GBM) diagnostic strategies for discrimination of tumor progression and chemo- and radiotherapeutic treatment-related changes in brain tissue. The study will elucidate the diagnostic value of PET imaging with use of amyloid-β radioisotope tracer Amyvid (Florbetapir F18) for GBM. The results of the study will provide data for development of new approach for GBM diagnostics.

Bevacizumab and ICIs + hSRT in Symptomatic Melanoma Brain Metastases
Single arm phase I/II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of bevacizumab, with ipilimumab plus nivolumab, and hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (hSRT) in patients with symptomatic melanoma brain metastases (MBM).

Biopsy Versus Resection in Elderly Glioblastoma Patients. A Prospective Cohort Study.
This trial is set up as a prospective observational cohort study to identify if either biopsy or resection should be the surgical modality of choice in elderly glioblastoma patients with a newly diagnosed tumor. Patients who are considered eligible for GBM resection or biopsy will be included. Through shared-decision making patients and their treating physicians will decide upon resection or biopsy. Written informed consent will be obtained. Participants will be followed for 1 year postoperative to assess potential differences in health-related quality of life and overall survival. Follow-up will consist of health-related quality...

Bispecific T Cell Engager BRiTE for Patients With Grade IV Malignant Glioma
This phase 1 study will evaluate a novel hEGFRvIII-CD3-biscFv Bispecific T cell engager (BRiTE) in patients diagnosed with pathologically documented World Health Organization (WHO) grade 4 malignant glioma (MG) with an EGFRvIII (epidermal growth factor receptor variant III) mutation (either newly diagnosed or at first progression/recurrence). The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of BRiTE in such patients.

Breast Cancer & Antiestrogenic Therapy & Brain
The study aims to investigate the effect of anti-estrogenic therapy in breast cancer patients on neural reward processing, psychosexual health, and quality of life, in reproductive vs. menopausal women. The investigators are directly comparing four groups 1) premenopausal women diagnosed with breast cancer receiving anti-estrogenic therapy, 2) postmenopausal women diagnosed with breast cancer with and without previous hormonal replacement therapy, receiving anti-estrogenic therapy, 3) premenopausal healthy women, and 4) postmenopausal healthy women. Furthermore, via assessment and integration of various data including ...
