TUXEDO-4 is an international, multicentric, single arm, phase II study aiming to gather additional solid evidence of Trastuzumab-Deruxtecan (T-DXd) activity in patients with Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-low breast cancer with active brain metastases. This study will analyze the efficacy of T-DXd as determined by overall response rate (ORR) at any timepoint as judged by best CNS response according to RANO-BM criteria.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about in patients with supratentorial brain tumours. The main questions it aims to answer is: Can short-term preoperative walking exercise protect cognitive function in the short term after craniotomy in patients with supratentorial brain tumor and reduce the incidence of surgery-related complications? Participants will be asked to receive general care and regular walking exercises prior to surgery. Researchers will compare patients who receive only general care before surgery to see if preoperative walking exercise has an effect on postoperative prognosis.
This is a prospective, randomized, 2-arm, Phrase 2, superiority and multicenter study to compare the efficiency of Anti-HER2 TKI versus Pertuzumab in Combination With Dose-dense Trastuzumab and Taxane in HER2-positive breast cancer patients with active refractory brain metastases.
Brain tumors involve different age groups with a wide range of tumor types involving different anatomical compartments of the brain. The evolution of the brain in vertebrates, including the most recent homo species (including humans), has occurred through increasing structural complexity in more evolved species. In the retrospective study, we will investigate the location of the tumors and different structural aspects of skull anatomy in patients with brain tumors. The information will be compared with the anatomical evolution of the brain and skull in vertebrates to look for possible associations, which can provide insights into...
Massive blood loss occurs in metastatic spinal tumor resection and may cause severe complications. The objective of this study is to investigate whether the use of tranexamic acid will reduce perioperative and postoperative bleeding when compared to those without use of tranexamic acid.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of a PEPIDH1M vaccine in combination with vorasidenib, a dual inhibitor of mutant IDH1 and IDH2 enzymes, in adult patients diagnosed with recurrent IDH1 mutant lower grade gliomas.
Brain malignancies are the most common cause of death from cancer in the pediatric population and a major source of morbidity amongst survivors. Many children with a brain tumour often suffer from visual field defects (hemianopia) dramatically impacting their daily life with poorer social interaction, difficulties learning, playing sports and engaging with peers. Practically, they bump into people and objects and have problems in finding their way in unfamiliar places and in detecting incoming objects in their blind field. There is growing recognition of the diverse and deep impact of hemianopia on physical and mental health, quality...
The researchers are doing this study to provide access to treatment with 131I-omburtamab for children and young adults who have CNS/leptomeningeal neoplasms. 131I-omburtamab is an investigational drug; the FDA has not approved it to treat this cancer or any other disease. However, the agency has granted the drug Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the treatment of neuroblastoma with CNS metastases.
To provide DFMO in an expanded use setting to subjects with relapsed rare tumors with increased LIN28 expression or MYCN amplification or up regulation of ornithine decarboxylase.
The participants are being asked to get this PET scan because the participants have or may have cancer in the central nervous system (head, neck, or spine), and the investigator and the patient's physician thinks that this scan may provide useful information for the participant's treatment. Primary Objective To provide expanded access to L-[11C]methionine as a positron-emitting tracer in children and young adults for the positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of neoplasms of the central nervous system (CNS) and head and neck to guide therapeutic management of disease.
