A Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Pemetrexed Combined with Nivolumab Via Intraventricular Injection for the Treatment of Refractory Non-squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer with Leptomeningeal Metastases
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the intraventricular injection of Pemetrexed and Nivolumab works to treat refractory non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer with leptomeningeal metastases. The main questions to answer are: Is the combination of Pemetrexed and Nivolumab safe to inject? How effective is the combination …
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 …
Efficacy of the Association of Fractionated SRS and Subsequent Surgery in Patients With Brain Metastases
In this study, the possibility of performing a preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy dose of 27 Gy fractionated in 3 sessions is explored, to maximize the biological effect of the treatment, in patients affected by solid tumors, in particular lung, breast and melanoma, in which brain metastases have arisen, the incidence of …
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 …
Intrathecal Pemetrexed for Leptomeningeal Metastasis From Lung Adenocarcinoma That Progressed After Osimertinib.
Pemetrexed is one of the first-line chemotherapeutic agents for non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Since 2017, intrathecal pemetrexed has shown good efficacy for patients with leptomeningeal metastases from NSCLC. It has been recommended as the preferred drug for intrathecal chemotherapy by the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) guidelines. …
MeDex: No Perioperative Dexamethasone in Brain Metastases
Perioperative treatment of newly diagnosed cancer patients with brain metastasis without dexamethasone (Dex).
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 …
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 …
Intrathecal PD-1/VEGF Bispecific Antibody Plus Pemetrexed for Leptomeningeal Metastasis
Leptomeningeal metastasis, characterized by tumor cells infiltrating and proliferating in the subarachnoid space, represents a distinct pattern of central nervous system involvement and is a fatal complication of malignant tumors. This phase I/II study is to evaluate the recommended dose, safety, feasibility, and therapeutic response of intrathecal PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody …
