Prospective and randomized evaluate efficiency and safety of different treatment strategies for hypothalamus-invading pituitary adenomas (HIPA)
The purpose of this study:(1) Development of a new risk classification model for childhood medulloblastoma. (2) Evaluation and improvement of existing individualized treatment protocols.
The purpose of this study is to see if 18F-Fluciclovine (Axumin®) is useful and safe in the management of children with Low Grade Gliomas (LGG). Imaging with 18F-Fluciclovine PET-MRI will be performed prior to initiation of therapy for LGG, and then 3 months, and 1 year after starting therapy. Changes in 18F-Fluciclovine uptake will be compared to changes in MRI measurements at 3 months and 1 year as compared to baseline.
The objective of this study is to evaluate to what extent the capacity of the NODDI model can allow, in case of Malignant brain tumor patients with vasogenic edema, the elaboration of a reliable cerebral functional mapping in accordance with the data of direct electrical stimulation (DES) which is today the reference tool. the patient's participation in this study implies an additional visit during which an MRI examination without injection of contrast medium will be performed, lasting approximately 40 minutes (including installation and de-installation).
The goal of this diagnostic intervention clinical trial is to compare 18F-Fluciclovine uptake within brain lesions over 60 minutes compared with standard of care positive histology confirmation or confirmation MRI images. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are the dynamics of 18F-Fluciclovine update within a non-treated metastatic brain lesion over 60 minutes? 2. What are the dynamics of 18F-fluciclovine update within recently treated metastatic brain lesions? 3. What is the potential use of 18F-Fluciclovine in delineating true local progression from radionecrosis in patients with...
The study team hypothesizes that it is feasible to intraoperatively detect tumor following [CU64]DOTATATE injection using the gamma probe device.
The goal of this clinical investigation of a medical device is to test the safety of graphene based electrodes when used during surgery for resection of brain tumors. The main questions that it aims to answer are: - To understand the safety of these new electrodes when used during brain tumor surgery (primary objective); - To assess the quality of the brain signals recorded with the new electrodes, their ability to stimulate the brain, how stable their function is over the duration of an operation, and their suitability for use in the operating theatre (secondary objectives). Participants...
Primary and secondary brain tumors, the leading cause of death from cancer before the age of 35, represent a complex and heterogeneous group of pathologies with a generally poor prognosis. Knowledge of these tumors has made enormous strides thanks to access to biological samples, leading to a much more robust, reliable and precise histo-pronostic classification, but also, increasingly, to the identification of theranostic targets. Despite these advances, there is a real need to refine diagnostic and prognostic classification, identify the biological mechanisms involved in the formation and progression of these pathologies, develop...
The investigators were to explore whether high-dose Furmonertinib, compared with osimertinib, could achieve longer survival in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC with CNS metastasis.
This phase II clinical trial involves the use of hippocampal-sparing together with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for the treatment of brain metastases. The standard of care in the treatment of brain metastases is cranial radiation, but this can be associated with significant neurocognitive sequelae, including reduced verbal memory, spatial memory, attention and problem solving. This can be minimized with the use of SRS, rather than whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT). Additionally, some of the neurotoxicity has been linked to damage in neural progenitor cells contained within the hippocampus. A recent phase III clinical trial has...
