Perimetry Based on Eye-movements in Patients With (Supra)Sellar Tumors
The purpose of this study is to assess wether the SONDA visual field test is suitable for patients with a supra sellar tumour.

Perioperative Multimodal Analgesia Protocol for Supratentorial Craniotomy
Supratentorial craniotomy is one of the most common neurosurgical procedures, with severe perioperative pain. Inadequate perioperative pain relief has been associated with increased blood pressure and intracranial pressure, favoring bleeding and cerebral cerebral hypoperfusion. The ideal analgesia for neurosurgery requires complete pain relief, eliminates the side effects of opioid drugs and no influence for neurological function. Previous studies have proposed a multimodal analgesic strategy, combining analgesics and local anaesthesia, it is expected to achieve the above benefits.

Personalized Radiotherapy for Individualized Treatment Strategies and Monitoring (PRISM)
To characterize feasibility, safety, and/or preliminary efficacy of personalized strategies to adapt standard radiotherapy treatments to individual patient responses.

PET/CT Imaging Study With Simultaneous Dual-nuclide Imaging Technique
This is a study using a parallel control approach and is expected to recruit 35 volunteers, including 8 prostate cancer patients, 8 neuroendocrine tumour patients, 8 glioma patients, 8 Parkinson's syndrome patients, and 3 normal volunteers, to undergo dual-nuclide PET/CT imaging and to validate the isolation effect and quantitative accuracy of simultaneous dual-nuclide imaging in humans.

Pharmacodynamic Analyses of Metabolic Agents Following Brain Radiation
This phase I trial studies the impact of taking drugs (agents) that target altered brain metabolism following standard of care brain radiotherapy. Radiotherapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. However, radiotherapy can also cause harmful effects to normal brain functioning. One drug, called anhydrous enol-oxaloacetate (AEO), has previously been studied in ischemic stroke, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and glioma. Drugs such as AEO may help preserve or restore healthy brain function after brain radiotherapy compared to the standard practice which consists of no drugs.

Pharmacoscopy for Patients with Refractory Primary Brain Tumors
Advanced technology of ex vivo drug profiling referred to as pharmacoscopy may allow to identify novel drugs for the treatment of glioblastoma and other refractory brain tumors at an individual patient level. This personalized therapeutic approach was developed and validated in pre-clinical glioma models. With the current research proposal, we seek to establish feasibility for a clinical interventional trial for patients with refractory primary brain tumors that is based on pharmacoscopy-guided selection of treatment.

Phase 0 With Expansion Phase Clinical Trial of Quisinostat Plus Radiotherapy in Newly-diagnosed and Recurrent Grade 4 IDH-Wildtype Glioblastomas
This is an open-label, multi-center Phase 0/1b study that will enroll up to 18 participants with recurrent WHO grade 4 glioblastoma (rGBM) IDH-wildtype (IDH-WT), Arm A, and 12 participants with presumed newly-diagnosed WHO grade 4 glioblastoma (nGBM) IDH-WT, Arm B. The trial will be composed of a Phase 0 component (subdivided into Arms A and B), and an Expansion Phase 1b. Patients with tumors demonstrating a positive pharmacokinetic (PK) response in the Phase 0 component of the study will graduate to an Expansion Phase that combines therapeutic dosing of quisinostat plus standard-of-care fractionated radiotherapy (RT).

Phase 1 ABY-029 Glioma Trial
The purposes of the research trial are to study the safety of ABY-029 and to understand how much of the drug is needed to reach brain tumors so it can be visualized best by surgeons. Investigators will do this by comparing two groups of participants that receive different, very small amounts of ABY-029. Investigators will use an imaging system during surgery to record the amount of ABY-029 in the participant's tumor and in the surrounding tissue.

Phase 2b of RAPA-201 Cell Therapy in Post-PD-(L)-1 Melanoma
The protocol is a Simon's 2-stage, non-randomized, open label, multi-site, phase 2 trial for patients with advanced metastatic, recurrent and unresectable malignant melanoma that has recurred or relapsed after prior anti-PD-(L)1 therapy.

Phase 2 Clinical Trial of KH617
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of KH617 for injection in combination with temozolomide versus investigator's choice therapy or KH617 monotherapy for recurrent glioblastoma
