A Pilot Study to Assess the Clinical Utility of 18F-Fluciclovine (Axumin) PET-CT for Detecting True-versus Pseudo-Progression of Brain Metastases on Immunotherapy
To learn if 18F-Fluciclovine (Axumin) PET-CT scans can be used to better detect brain metastatic lesions in patients who are receiving immunotherapy.
Ex Vivo Drug Response Evaluation for Next Generation Care of Brain Metastases
Pharmacoscopy refers to an ex vivo real-time drug sensitivity profiling platform that has been shown to be of value in the treatment of leukemia (Snijder et al. 2017) (Kornauth et al. 2022) and may help to identify novel treatment opportunities for brain tumors as well (Lee et al. 2022). The …
EXCLAIM: Exploring Combined Local and Systemic Approaches In Brain Metastasis: a Multi-cohort Randomized Phase II Study Evaluating Initial Response to Systemic Therapy and Subsequent Integration of Stereotactic Radiosurgery in Patients With Low-risk Brain Metastases and Central Nervous System-active
To learn if consolidative stereotactic radiosurgery (cSRS) can help to control central nervous system (CNS) disease in patients who have brain metastases and have a partial response or stable brain metastases after systemic therapy. To learn if using SRS to treat all brain metastases that do not respond to systemic …
Feasibility of 18F-Fluciclovine PET/CT to Identify Brain Metastasis
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: What are the dynamics of 18F-Fluciclovine update within a non-treated metastatic …
Corticodependent or Corticoresistant Brain Radionecrosis After Radiotherapy for Brain Metastases
Brain metastases (BM) afflict a significant portion of cancer patients, ranging from 10% to 50%, leading to debilitating symptoms and diminished quality of life, thereby impacting overall survival. Treatment options typically include surgery, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), and whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT). SRS has emerged as the preferred focal treatment due …
ioMRI in the Surgery of Brain Metastases.
The study aims to improve the surgical treatment of brain metastases through the use of advanced imaging techniques. The investigators are examining how intraoperative MRI (iMRI) can aid surgeons in precisely locating and removing tumors, with the potential to enhance surgical outcomes and reduce the need for additional procedures. While …
MeDex: No Perioperative Dexamethasone in Brain Metastases
Perioperative treatment of newly diagnosed cancer patients with brain metastasis without dexamethasone (Dex).
Stereotactic Radiation for Growing/Changing Brain Metastases With Same-Day Radiation Planning and Treatment With Margin Reduction
The goal of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of same-day radiation planning and treatment. The study will shorten the time interval between radiation planning (radiation mapping) and radiation treatment. The intent of this shorter time interval is to increase the likelihood that the brain metastases being …
Feasibility of a Cognitive Stepped Care Program for Adults With Brain Metastases
Background: Cognitive symptoms are common and often severe in patients with brain metastases, significantly impacting their quality of life and ability to manage cancer care. Currently, there is no standard approach for routinely assessing and managing these symptoms in oncology clinics. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, …
Stereotactic Radiosurgery Dose Escalation for Brain Metastases
This is a Phase I dose escalation and expansion trial. The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of radiation received during stereotactic radiosurgery in patients with brain metastases who have never received radiation to the brain before.
