F-Tryptophan PET/CT in Human Cancers
Imaging procedures such as 1-(2-[18F]FLUOROETHYL)-L-Tryptophan PET/CT in patients with cancers may help doctors assess a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment in the future. The purpose is to see if there can be a better differentiation of tumor and non-tumor tissue where the tumor tissue has …
Study of Ribociclib and Everolimus in HGG and DIPG or Ribociclib and Temozolomide in DHG, H3G34-mutant
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the 1) ribociclib and everolimus to treat pediatric and young adult patients newly diagnosed with a high-grade glioma (HGG), including DIPG, that have genetic changes in pathways (cell cycle, PI3K/mTOR) that these drugs target or 2) ribociclib and temozolomide …
Study of Olutasidenib and Temozolomide in HGG
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the study drug olutasidenib to treat newly diagnosed pediatric and young adult patients with a high-grade glioma (HGG) harboring an IDH1 mutation. The main question the study aims to answer is whether the combination of olutasidenib and temozolomide (TMZ) …
Social Health, Activity Behaviors, and Quality of Life Among Young Adult Cancer Survivors
This study assesses how personal relationships (such as friendships, family relationships, or romantic partners) influence the physical activity (exercise) and well-being of young adult cancer survivors. Researchers also hope to learn how social relationships change after a cancer diagnosis, and how these changes might impact important health behaviors. The information …
Nausea Induced by Radiation of the Dorsal Vagal Complex for Benign Brain Tumors (NausiCAA)
Patients irradiated to the brain frequently experience nausea. The dorsal vagal complex (DVC) area is a specific brainstem zone and has been identified as likely responsible for nausea. Existing clinical studies show correlation between dose to the DVC and nausea, but they concern tumors of the airways and upper digestive …
Circulating Biomarkers Repository in Adults Diagnosed With Primary and Metastatic Brain Tumors
The purpose of this protocol is to create a repository of blood samples from patients diagnosed with primary and metastatic brain tumors who are being seen in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Duke Cancer Center.
Glutamate Excitotoxicity and Its Role in Glioblastoma Biology
Gliomas are the most frequent type of primary brain tumors in adults; among them glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant, being associated with the worst prognosis. Glutamate (Glu) is an aminoacid, responsible for essential functions in the Central Nervous System (CNS), acting both as metabolite and neurotransmitter. It is …
Radiation Induced Alterations in Resting State Brain Networks in Pediatric Brain Tumor Patients
With modern therapy, the survival rate for pediatric brain tumor patients has significantly improved, with over 70% of patients surviving their disease. However, this progress often comes at the cost of substantial morbidity, with cognitive deficits being the primary obstacle to independent living. Robust predictors of cognitive decline and a …
Experiences and Needs of Patients With a High-grade Glioma and Their Caregivers
The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences and needs of patients with a high-grade glioma and their caregivers. Semi-structured interviews with patients and caregivers will be conducted and analysed using Grounded-Theory approach.
Metabolic Characteristics of Brain Tumors Using Hyperpolarized Carbon-13 Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic Imaging (MRSI)
This is a non-randomized, purely observational, feasibility study to detect metabolic changes in patients with brain malignancy using a novel hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate MRSI.
