GPC-3 CAR T CELLS for Recurrent GPC-3 Positive Glioblastoma
The body has different ways of fighting infection and disease. No single way seems perfect for fighting cancers. This research study combines two different ways of fighting cancer: antibodies and T cells. Antibodies are types of proteins that protect the body from infectious diseases and possibly cancer. T-cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells, including cells infected with viruses and tumor cells. Both antibodies and T cells have been used to treat participants with cancers. They have shown promise, but have not been strong enough to cure most participants. The study team has found from previous research that we...

Heterogeneity of 68Ga-FAPI Uptake As Imaging Biomarker in T-DXd Treatment for Brain Metastasis of HER2 Positive Breast Cancer
The purpose of this study was to explore the predictive value of the heterogeneity of 68Ga-FAPI PET-CT uptake before treatment on the response of T-DXd treatment in patients with brain metastases of HER2-positive breast cancer. The patient underwent 68Ga-FAPI PET-CT examinations within 2 weeks before and after 2 cycles of T-DXd treatment. Heterogeneity index, SUVmax, SUVmean and other uptake values were collected to investigate the association with efficacy of T-DXd.

High-dose Furmonertinib Versus Osimertinib in Advanced EGFRm NSCLC Patients With Brain Metastases
The investigators were to explore whether high-dose Furmonertinib, compared with osimertinib, could achieve longer survival in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC with CNS metastasis.

High-dose Methotrexate Combined with Thiotepa and Zanubrutinib in the Treatment of Newly Diagnosed PCNSL (MTZ)
This is a phase Ⅱ clinical study of Zanubrutinib(Z) in combination with methotrexate (M) and thiotepa(T) in treating newly diagnosed primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL). The purpose of the study is to test the efficacy and tolerability of a combination treatment of MTZ regimen in treating patients who have newly diagnosed PCNSL

High-frequency nrTMS on the Contralateral Broca Mirror Area for Glioma Patients With Early Postoperative Aphasia
The goal of this randomized clinical controlled trial is to determine whether the application of high frequency neuronavigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (nrTMS) on the contralateral of Broca's area can ameliorate glioma patients's non-fluent aphasia after tumor resection. The questions this trial is aiming to answer are: 1. Whether the nrTMS can ameliorate glioma patients' postoperative language impairements. 2. if yes, how effective nrTMS is for improving glioma patients' postoperative language function.

HOBSCOTCH-CA (HOme-Based Self-management and COgnitive Training CHanges Lives in Brain CAncer)
The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of the home-based intervention, HOBSCOTCH-CA, to improve the quality of life and cognitive function in Service Members, Veterans and civilians who are survivors of brain cancer or a brain tumor (CA participants). This study will also assess the ability of the HOBSCOTCH-CA program to improve quality of life in caregivers of patients with brain cancer/tumor and to reduce caregiver burden. Enrolling with a Caregiver is optional for CA participants. Investigators will compare two groups of CA participants and their Caregiver (enrolling with a Caregiver is optional): one who receives HOBSCOCTCH-CA immediately (Group 1) and another...

How Consistent is the Output of DERM, When Used to Assess Images of Potentially Cancerous Skin Lesions.
DERM is a Medical Device that uses artificial intelligence to help doctors check if a skin lesion might be cancerous. It works by analysing close-up pictures of skin lesions taken with a smartphone. This study aims to demonstrate how consistent (precise) the output of DERM is: i.e. does it provide the same result when it analyses multiple photos of the same lesion (repeatability), and when the same lesion is photographed by different people, or with different cameras (reproducibility). Adults with at least one skin lesion that doctors are checking for cancer, as part of their standard care, will be able to take part. Suitable lesions will be photographed three times, each by...

Identification and Characterization of Circulating Tumor Cells Before and After Treatment (Surgery and Radiotherapy) in a Cohort of Patients Treated for Resectable Stage I-III Merkel Cell Carcinoma
The goal of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the presence of circulating tumoral cells in patients over 18 with a stage I-III resectable Merkel cell carcinoma after the initial therapeutic sequence of surgery and radiotherapy. The main question it aims to answer is : Can any residual disease be found in the form of circulating tumoral cells in blood samples of patients treated with surgery and radiotherapy for a resectable, stage I to III Merkel cell carcinoma ? When possible, the circulating tumoral cells count will be compared to the one realized in a blood sample of the same patient before surgery and radiotherapy. Participants will : - Have a...
