European Prospective Investigation Into Childhood Cancer
Over the last decades, research has shown that poor nutritional status can adversely impact prognosis and increase toxicities during treatment for childhood cancer. EPICkids is a collaboration between the International Initiative for Pediatrics and Nutrition, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, and sites throughout three Southern European countries (Spain, Greece, and Italy). The primary aim of EPICkids is to establish an informational resource on critical nutrition parameters wherein we can describe the trajectory of nutritional status among Southern European children and adolescents with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and favorable biology brain tumors,...

Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of Raman IVD Analyzer in the Molecular Diagnosis of Gliomas During Surgery
To distinguish various molecular subtypes of gliomas by spectra data obtained from Raman analyzer, including IDH mutant, 1p/19q-codeleted, ATRX deletion, TERT promoter mutation, MGMT promoter methylation, EGFR amplification, H3 K27-altered, TP53 mutant, PTEN deficiency, ki 67, AQP4, VEGF, and so on, comparing with the results of Immunohistochemistry or genetic test on the same brain tissue samples.

Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Atorvastatin Combined With Temozolomide in the Treatment of Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the primary intracranial malignant tumor with the highest morbidity and mortality, and the 5-year survival rate is less than 10%. The number of primary diagnostic patients and deaths of GBM in China ranks first in the world every year, which seriously threatens people's life and health. At present, the clinical treatment strategy of maximum surgical resection combined with concurrent chemo- and radio-therapy and TTF treatment is still not satisfactory, and the median survival time of GBM patients is only 14.4 months. Statins inhibit cholesterol production with few side effects and are widely used for cholesterol control in patients with hyperlipidemia. In...

Evaluate the Role of Anthracycline After Radio Therapy in Patients With Glioblastoma (pGBM).
Glioblastoma (GBM) and diffuse intrinsic bridge gliomas (DIPG) only the most aggressive forms of cancer, and their prognosis remains bleak. Currently, the standard of treatment is TMZ concomitant with radiotherapy, and, at the end of combined treatment, as adjuvant therapy. In vitro and in vivo experimental studies have suggested that anthracyclines are effective antineoplastics for the treatment of gliomas. In patients with solid tumors treated with anthracyclines, continuous infusion administration compared with bolus administration has been shown to provide a better safety profile especially with regard to cardiotoxicity. Based on this evidence, this study aims to evaluate the...

Evaluate the Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of the Combination of NaviFUS System With Re-irradiation for rGBM Patients
This is an open label, single arm, prospective, and pilot study. Eligible patients will be enrolled after acquiring the signed informed consent and then will receive the treatment of re-RT combined with FUS (FUS + re-RT) on an outpatient basis. The re-RT in FUS + re-RT treatment will include fractioned stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treatment (FUS + SRS) or conventional radiotherapy (cRT) treatment (FUS + cRT). The treatment of SRS or cRT treatment given to patients is determined by the investigator depending on the volume and location of the treatment region.

Evaluating High-dose Furmonertinib with Bevacizumab and Pemetrexed for EGFRm NSCLC with Leptomeningeal Metastasis
The primary objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy of high-dose furmonertinib combined with bevacizumab and pemetrexed (triple therapy) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with leptomeningeal metastasis and epidermal growth factor receptor mutation (EGFRm) through overall survival (OS). The secondary objectives are to further assess the efficacy of the triple therapy in patients with EGFRm and leptomeningeal metastasis, including time to treatment failure (TTF), leptomeningeal objective response rate (ORR-LM), and clinical response rate.The study will also evaluate the impact of the triple therapy on quality of life using the EORTC QLQ-C30...

Evaluating Length of Treatment With PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitor in Advanced Solid Tumors
Based on the overwhelming positive response to this survey and the large number of patients being treated with PD-1/PD-L1 therapy in the UPMC system, the investigators are proposing a trial that will randomize patients who have disease stability to stop treatment at 1 year or continue treatment until disease progression. The investigators anticipate that the results of this study will answer questions regarding the optimal duration of treatment. therapy.
