FG001 in Subjects with Meningiomas or Presumed Low-Grade Gliomas Scheduled for Neurosurgery
In neurosurgery both the diffusely infiltrated gliomas of the brain as well as the border towards healthy tissue in the meninges is a challenge. For the high-grade contrast enhanced gliomas fluorescent drugs like Gliolan have been used in several years and proved its clinical value. For non-contrast enhanced gliomas, like low-grade glioma, no such drug exist. The transition zone towards healthy non-tumor cell infiltrated brain in such low-grade gliomas is extremely difficult but for these patients their prognosis depends on the amount of non-healthy tissue left behind. Also, in benign tumors as meningioma the complete resection including infiltrated meninges is of importance for...

Firmonertinib Combined With Intrathecal Injection for the Treatment of EGFR Mutant NSCLC With Leptomeningeal Metastases
Leptomeningeal metastases (LM) are a relatively rare site of metastasis in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and LM patients have a poor prognosis. Numerous retrospective studies have reported that high-dose Firmonertinib can also effectively increase patient prognosis and have tolerable side effects, but there is a lack of prospective studies to confirm this. In addition, there are currently no good biomarkers for monitoring the efficacy of LM treatment. cfDNA testing can be used for early cancer screening, monitoring tumor progression, evaluating treatment response, and discovering drug resistance mechanisms. Due to the influence of the blood-brain barrier, the level...

First in Human Study of NVG-111 in Relapsed/Refractory ROR1+ Malignancies
NVG-111 is a bispecific antibody drug, having two "arms", one arm attaches to a substance on cancer cells called ROR1, the other arm attaches to the body's immune cells directing them to kill the cancer cells. This is the first clinical trial of the drug NVG-111, and will include patients with certain types of cancer including chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), follicular lymphoma (FL) and diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in Group A. Subjects with solid tumours, focusing initially on stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or malignant melanoma.

First-in-human Trial of PhOx430, a First-in-class Acetylglucosaminyltransferase V Inhibitor, in Advanced Solid Tumours
The PhAST Trial is an adaptive first-in-human clinical trial of the acetylglucosaminyltransferase V inhibitor PhOx430 in patients with advanced solid tumours conceived and designed with the contribution of the Gianni Bonadonna Foundation, a non-profit academic research institution aimed at promoting therapeutic innovation in oncology.. The trial includes two parts, a dose escalation phase which will enroll patients with non-selected tumour types, followed by a cohort expansion phase in selected tumour types.

Fitness and Nutrition in Glioma
This is a pilot study assessing the effects of combining a modified Atkins diet with a physical fitness regimen in patients with malignant glioma. A sample size of 15 participants will be enrolled in a 15-week program consisting of two weekly supervised exercise sessions combined with an individualized home exercise program and a modified Atkins diet.

FLT-PET / MRI Brain Mets
Brain metastasis (BrM) develops in approximately 40% of cancer patients. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a form of radiotherapy that delivers high-dose per fraction to individual lesions that is commonly used to treat BrM. Radionecrosis (RN) is an adverse event that occurs in approximately 10 - 25% of patients 6 - 24 months after treatment with SRS. Tumour progression may also occur due to local failure of treatment. Radionecrosis and tumour progression share very similar clinical features including vomiting, nausea, and focal neurologic findings. Radionecrosis and tumour progression also share overlapping imaging characteristics. Due to their similarities, physicians need...
