Lorlatinib in Patients With ALK-Positive NSCLC With Brain or Leptomeningeal Metastases
This study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicenter clinical trial aimed at exploring the antitumor activity of Lorlatinib in ALK-positive NSCLC patients with brain/ leptomeningeal metastases.

Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting Guided Extended Resection in Glioblastomas
Magnetic resonance imaging, MRI, is a procedure that uses radio waves, a powerful magnet, and a computer to make a series of detailed pictures of areas inside the body. The goal of this study is to determine if MR fingerprinting, new way of acquiring MRI images, can help identify the extent of tumor spread in the brain, better than routine MRI images.

Mapping Molecular Markers of Brain Tumour Activity Using MRI
Regions of tumour whose cells (the building blocks of the tumour) are actively multiplying generate a particular type of molecular footprint (consisting of various types of proteins) compared to tumours whose cells are relatively stable. In addition, tumour cells begin to develop a network of blood vessels that not only supply them with nutrients and oxygen, but also provide a pathway for tumour spread. There is a critical period between when these proteins and blood vessel network develops, and when tumour growth is visible using current MRI scanning. Therefore, making the process of tumour activity visible on clinical MRI scans is an important step in demonstrating...

Medulloblastoma Online Video-based Exercise Pilot Study
In this study, the investigators test whether it is possible to deliver an exercise intervention via video meetings to children and adolescents who have completed therapy for medulloblastoma. The exercise sessions will be individualized and offered three times weekly during 12 weeks.

MeFAMP for Imaging System a Amino Acid Transport in Primary and Metastatic Brain Tumors
This first-in-human study will establish the human safety and radiation dosimetry of the system A amino acid transport substrate, (R)-3-[F-18]fluoro-2-methyl-2-(methylamino)propanoic acid ([F-18]MeFAMP), for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of primary and metastatic brain tumors. This study will include 3 cohorts: healthy volunteers for whole body dosimetry estimates (n=6-8, Dosimetry Cohort), patients undergoing evaluation for recurrent high grade glioma after radiation therapy (n=10, high grade glioma (HGG) Cohort), and patients with brain metastases from extra-cranial solid tumors before and after radiation therapy (n=10, Metastasis Cohort). Exploratory assessment of...

Methotrexate or Thiotepa Combined With R-CHOP and Orelabrutinib in CNSL Patients
This study is designed as an open-label, prospective, single-arm, single-center trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of MTX or Thiotepa combined with Orelabrutinib and standard chemotherapy regimens in the treatment of DLBCL patients with central nervous system involvement.

Methylphenidate in Pediatric Brain Tumor Survivors With Cancer-related Fatigue
Cancer-related fatigue is a common and debilitating late effect in pediatric brain tumor survivors. Currently, evidence-based recommendations to ameliorate this condition are lacking. The researchers will investigate the ability of methylphenidate to improve fatigue and cognition in pediatric brain tumor survivors suffering from cancer-related fatigue. Methylphenidate is a drug (central nervous stimulant) most commonly used in the treatment of hyperkinetic disorders such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). If methylphenidate shows an effect, the prospects are important for this patient group, since methylphenidate may then be included as part of the treatment...

Molecular Pituitary Imaging Using 18F-FET PET
The goal of this single centre pilot study is to explore whether 18F-fluoro-ethyl-tyrosine PET (FET-PET) yields comparable findings to 11C-methionine PET (Met-PET) for the localisation of pituitary tumours.

MRI Hypoxia Study for Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) Radiation Therapy
This study is designed to evaluate the role of Oxygen Enhanced (OE) Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent (BOLD) MRI in detecting regions of hypoxic tumour and to evaluate their use as imaging methods to selectively deliver targeted radiotherapy to regions of aggressive disease.
