Hitting the Mark: Introducing State-of-the-art MRI for Precision Radiotherapy of Glioblastoma
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to assess the potential of advanced MRI for improved radiotherapy target delineation in patients diagnosed with glioblastoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How does the coverage of the recurrence volume by a radiotherapy plan based on advanced MRI compare to the coverage by the clinical radiotherapy plan? - How does the distribution of the dose to organs at risk by a radiotherapy plan based on advanced MRI compare to the distribution by the clinical radiotherapy plan? Participants will undergo an extended MRI-protocol prior to radiotherapy. This extended MRI-protocol includes the clinical brain tumor...

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...

Horse Therapy for Children, Adolescents and Young Adults in Remission From Medulloblastoma
On average, each year in the former region, 60 new patients under the age of 18 are treated for a brain tumor, with an active post-treatment follow-up file of 350 patients. Because of the significant sequelae induced by the disease or the treatments, these patients will very often require rehabilitative care. The interest of involving the horse in the population of patients cured of a medulloblastoma but with important physical and psychological after-effects is to be able to combine a therapy using animal mediation (equitherapy) and a rehabilitation therapy based on the three-dimensional movement of the horse (hippotherapy).

How do I Perform a Laparoscopic Removal of a Pelvic Retroperitoneal Schwannoma
Schwannomas are mainly benign tumors, which develop mainly in the skull or in the cervical region. Retroperitoneal location is rare, since it represents between 0.5 and 5% of scwhanomas. The malignant retroperitoneal form is, however, more common than in other locations. Retroperitoneal schwannoma is often discovered during the exploration of unexplained lumbo-pelvic pain, or in the face of compression of nearby organs. Abdominopelvic CT and magnetic resonance imaging are essential to characterize the mass and verify its extension. The precise diagnosis is based on the pathological examination of the part, and complete surgical excision is the standard treatment. Acquiring...

HSV G207 in Children With Recurrent or Refractory Cerebellar Brain Tumors
This study is a clinical trial to determine the safety of inoculating G207 (an experimental virus therapy) into a recurrent or refractory cerebellar brain tumor. The safety of combining G207 with a single low dose of radiation, designed to enhance virus replication, tumor cell killing, and an anti-tumor immune response, will also be tested.

HTL0039732 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumours
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate a new drug, HTL0039732, that will be administered on its own (as a monotherapy) and in combination with atezolizumab or with other approved anti-cancer therapies, in participants with advanced solid tumours.

Human CD19-CD22 Targeted T Cells Injection for Refractory/Relapsed Central Nervous System Leukemia/Lymphoma Patients
This study is a open-label, dose-escalation trial to explore the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics characteristics of Human CD19-CD22 Targeted T Cells by intravenous and intrathecal administration, and to preliminarily observe the efficacy of the trial drug in patients with central nervous system involvement of refractory/relapsed B cell malignancies.
