Patients suffering from malignancies in advanced stages often develop brain metastases, which limit both the life span and the quality of life. Combining surgery and radiotherapy for resectable brain metastases is standard of care but there is a lot of controversy on which kind of radiotherapy is best suitable. Recently, first volumetric in-silico analyses point to theoretical advantages of neoadjuvant stereotactic radiotherapy of brain metastases. Special about this trial is the direct comparison between the three currently discussed radiotherapy options for resectable brain metastases: Neoadjuvant stereotactic radiotherapy,...
The purpose of this research study is to learn about the safety and feasibility of giving a personalized DNA vaccine to people with brain tumors that have returned or have been resistant to treatment.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate, retrospectively and prospectively, the effect of different hormonal and neuropeptide dysfunctions on the body composition of patients suffering from hypothalamic-pituitary pathologies, and to evaluate the potential beneficial effect of surgical and medical treatments with agonists and antagonists of hypothalamic neuropeptides, currently available, on the development and treatment of adiposity and negative cross-talk between adiposity and muscle/bone tissue
To evaluate the efficacy of nilatinib maleate tablets combined with capecitabine in the treatment of HER2-positive advanced esophageal/esophagogastric junction/gastric adenocarcinoma with brain metastasis.
The planned multicenter register is intended to create a database in the form of a cancer register on the incidence and course of disease in Germany of leptomeningeal disease, the therapeutic measures administered in the real world and the complications.
This research study involves studying a device as a possible treatment for metastatic melanoma in the brain. The purpose of this study is to obtain information on the safety and effectiveness of the study device, NovoTTF-200A, in melanoma participants with brain metastases when it is combined with Pembrolizumab. The name of the study device involved in this study is: -- NovoTTF-200A The name of the drug used in this study is: -- Pembrolizumab
A companion platform trial to test novel targeted agents based on the patient's tumor profile.
The objective of the study is to assess safety of panitumumab-IRDye800 in pediatric patients undergoing brain surgery to remove suspected tumors.
The purpose of this study is to compare whether prophylactic cranial irradiation in patients with advanced triple negative breast cancer who had a response to first line chemotherapy could prolong brain-metastasis free survival.
This study will address the question of whether targeting CMV antigens with PEP-CMV can serve as a novel immunotherapeutic approach in pediatric patients with newly-diagnosed high-grade glioma (HGG) or diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) as well as recurrent medulloblastoma (MB). PEP-CMV is a vaccine mixture of a peptide referred to as Component A. Component A is a synthetic long peptide (SLP) of 26 amino acid residues from human pp65. The SLPs encode multiple potential class I, class II, and antibody epitopes across several haplotypes. Component A will be administered as a stable water:oil emulsion in Montanide ISA 51. ...
