CART-EGFR-IL13Ra2 in EGFR Amplified Recurrent GBM
This is an open-label phase 1 study to assess the safety and feasibility of autologous T cells co-expressing two CARs targeting the cryptic EGFR and IL13Ra2 (referred to as "CART-EGFR-IL13Ra2 cells") in patients with EGFR-amplified glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype that has recurred following prior radiotherapy.

CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells in Glioblastoma
The goal of this research study is to determine the best dose of CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells for treating participants with glioblastoma. The name of the treatment intervention used in this research study is: -CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells (or Autologous T lymphocytes).

CBF and NCF Changes With Brain Radiation
This study will be a dual-arm prospective longitudinal cohort study for patients with brain metastases, at least one of which is appropriate for radiotherapy, to explore brain and cognitive changes following SRS or WBRT and evaluate the feasibility of a novel MRI protocol to identify potential radiological biomarkers of NCF decline. Patients diagnosed with brain mets will be assigned to either Arm A or Arm B, depending on their treatment plan. Patients in Arm A will be treated with SRS. Patients in Arm B will be treated with WBRT. Patients' neurocognitive function will be assessed before their radiation treatment and followed up for 2 years post treatment.

CBL0137 for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors, Including CNS Tumors and Lymphoma
This phase I/II trial evaluates the best dose, side effects and possible benefit of CBL0137 in treating patients with solid tumors, including central nervous system (CNS) tumors or lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Drugs, such as CBL0137, block signals passed from one molecule to another inside a cell. Blocking these signals can affect many functions of the cell, including cell division and cell death, and may kill cancer cells.

CBT-I in Primary Brain Tumor Patients: Phase IIc Randomized Feasibility Pilot Trial
This study seeks to investigate an evidence-based, manualized, behavioral health intervention, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), in individuals with primary brain tumors (PBT) and insomnia. Our project will assess the feasibility and acceptability of recruitment, enrollment, data collection procedures, and retention of individuals with PBT and insomnia in the behavioral health intervention, CBT-I, and investigate the potential benefits of CBT-I within this at-risk and understudied population. In the long term, the goals are to expand treatment options for neuro-oncology patients and improve their mission readiness and overall wellbeing.

CD200AR-L and Allogeneic Tumor Lysate Vaccine Immunotherapy for Recurrent HGG and Newly Diagnosed DMG/DIPG in Children and Young Adults
This is a single center Phase I study of a new adjuvant CD200 activation receptor ligand, CD200AR-L, in combination with imiquimod and GBM6-AD vaccine to treat malignant glioma in children and young adults. The primary objective of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CD200AR-L when given with a fixed dose of GBM6-AD vaccine, imiquimod, and a single dose of radiation for patients with recurrent High Grade Glioma (HGG) or following standard of care therapy radiation therapy for newly diagnosed Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Midline Glioma/Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG/DMG).

CD8+ T Cell Imaging During Pre-surgery Immunotherapy in People With Melanoma
Combination treatment with nivolumab and ipilimumab before surgery may help people with melanoma because the drugs are designed to help the immune system target and destroy cancer cells (immunotherapy), which may shrink the cancer and prevent recurrence after surgery. Treatment given before surgery is called neoadjuvant therapy. The purpose of this study is to find out whether neoadjuvant therapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab can kill melanoma tumors before surgery and prevent disease from coming back after surgery. This study also explores a new, experimental PET scan that images the immune system to see if it is related to treatment outcomes.

Cemiplimab for the Treatment of Untreated Brain Metastases From PD-L1 >= 50% Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This phase II trial tests how well cemiplimab works in treating patients with PD-L1 >= 50% non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to the brain (metastases). Approximately 10% of patients diagnosed with metastatic NSCLC present with brain metastases and another 30% develop brain metastases during the illness. Currently, the management of brain metastases relies on stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), which has high rates of local control, but in combination with systemic therapy, can cause certain toxicities, including central nervous system (CNS) necrosis or potential cognitive changes or memory deficits. Additionally, in...

Cerebellar Mutism Syndrome Study
The purpose of this study is to determine why up to 25% of the pediatric patients who have surgery for a tumor in the posterior fossa develops the Cerebellar Mutism Syndrome (CMS). Furthermore the purpose is to explore the clinical course and the best treatment of the syndrome.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers for Brain Tumors
This study examines cerebrospinal biomarkers in patients with brain tumors. A biomarker is a measurable indicator of the severity or presence of your disease state. Collecting and storing samples of cerebrospinal fluid from patients with brain tumors to study in the laboratory may help doctors develop new strategies to better diagnose, monitor, and treat brain tumors.
