Testing if High Dose Radiation Only to the Sites of Brain Cancer Compared to Whole Brain Radiation That Avoids the Hippocampus is Better at Preventing Loss of Memory and Thinking Ability
This phase III trial compares the effect of stereotactic radiosurgery to standard of care memantine and whole brain radiation therapy that avoids the hippocampus (the memory zone of the brain) for the treatment of small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation …
A Study of Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) for People With Lung Cancer That Has Spread to the Brain
The purpose of the study is to see if stereotactic radiosurgery/SRS is an effective treatment for people with a new diagnosis of brain metastases from small cell lung cancer/SCLC.
A Study Evaluating Furmonertinib Plus Platinum-based Doublet Chemotherapy Versus Osimertinib in Patients With Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Sensitizing Mutation-Positive Non-squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Brain Metastases
This study is a Phase III, international, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of furmonertinib plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy (Arm A) versus osimertinib monotherapy (Arm B) in patients with EGFR sensitizing mutation-positive non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and brain …
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 …
Gadolinium and Ferumoxytol MRI in Diagnosing Patients With Abnormalities in the Central Nervous System
This phase II trial studies how well gadolinium and ferumoxytol magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) work in diagnosing patients with abnormalities in the central nervous system. Diagnostic procedures, such as gadolinium and ferumoxytol MRI, may help find and diagnose abnormalities in the central nervous system.
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) …
Testing Longer Duration Radiation Therapy Versus the Usual Radiation Therapy in Patients With Cancer That Has Spread to the Brain
This phase III trial compares the effectiveness of fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS) to usual care stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in treating patients with cancer that has spread from where it first started to the brain. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. FSRS delivers a …
Stereotactic Magnetic Resonance Guided Radiation Therapy
This is a master prospective Phase I-II trial evaluating feasibility and efficacy of stereotactic magnetic resonance (MR) guided adaptive radiation therapy (SMART) in patients with cancer. The phase 1 study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of delivering SMART in patients with cancer. Phase 2 will evaluate efficacy of SMART …
A Study of BDTX-4933 in Patients With KRAS, BRAF and Select RAS/MAPK Mutation-Positive Cancers
BDTX-4933-101 is a first-in-human, open-label, Phase 1 dose escalation and an expansion cohort study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the preliminary recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), and antitumor activity of BDTX-4933. The study population for the Dose Escalation part of the study comprises …
Metachronic Brain Metastases After Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer (METABREC)
Esophagectomy is the cornerstone of the curative treatment of esophageal carcinoma. Despite this treatment, patients can suffer from locoregional or distant metastatic disease and only a very selected group of patients can be cured: mostly those with recurrence in one single organ. Brain metastases are rare after esophagectomy for cancer, …
