Effect of stRess and exeRcize on the Outcome After Chemo-Radiation
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly malignant, incurable primary brain tumor. Due to the nature of this disease and the extent of the treatment (surgery followed by chemoradiation according to the Stupp trial) patients undergo considerable psychological distress. It is known that stress hormones are involved in a wide range of …
Neurosurgical Neuronavigation Using Resting State MRI and Machine Learning
This study is investigating the use of a computer algorithm to analyze scans of the brain before surgery to predict how a person's tumor will respond to treatment.
Key Longitudinal Associations With Risk and Glioblastoma Outcomes
The goal of this observational study is to find out what factors affect the health and risks in adults with glioblastoma (GBM), a grade 4 brain cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: How do genetic and immune system factors impact survival and quality of life in GBM …
Drug Response Testing and Repurposing Using Glioblastoma Organoid
The aim of this observational study, based on a prospectively collected cohort, is to evaluate the prognostic value of patient-derived organoids in predicting responses to conventional and repurposing drugs, including temozolomide, in patients with primary or recurrent glioblastoma. The primary question is whether the patient's response to temozolomide is recapitulated …
Improving Understanding of Glioblastoma Through Preservation of Biologically Active Brain Tissue
To collect and preserve glioblastoma tissue during standard of care tumor resection surgery and blood for future molecular and genetic testing. Tissue for research will be collected from three different regions within the same tumor to study how these regions differ in their structure, DNA, and RNA and also to …
THERApeutic Outcomes Related to Gut microBIOME in Glioblastoma (GBM) Patients Receiving Chemo-radiation (THERABIOME-GBM)
This is a pilot or feasibility study to test the study plan and to find out whether enough participants will join a larger study and accept the study procedures. Eligible participants (adults with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme [GBM] and had a good tumour resection [>= 70% of initial tumour volume] …
Development of Therapeutic Approaches Modulating Molecular Targets Implicated on Cancer Stem Cell-related Aggressiveness
Tumors of the central nervous system affect 21 people per 100,000 every year, a figure that refers to countries with advanced economies, with an increase in incidence over time. Experimental evidence suggests that cancer stem cells (CSCs) may play a key role in the malignancy of these tumors. In fact, …
Loupe-Based Intraoperative Fluorescence Imaging
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and anaplastic astrocytoma (AA) are the most common primary malignant brain tumors. Survival of patients with these brain tumors is directly related to the extent of resection. Consequently, a great deal of effort has been directed at developing techniques and technologies that allow more extensive, safe resections. …
Psychological and Psychiatric prOfile in Glioblastoma and Head and Neck Cancer
Approximately 30% of cancer patients may experience psychopathological disorders. The most common psychopathological disorders in cancer patients are mood disorders, anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, and suicidal ideation. Among depressive disorders, mixed depression, with the simultaneous presence of symptoms of both depressive and manic polarity, is associated to higher levels of …
Development and Implementation of an Intervention Enhancing Involvement of Relatives to Patients With Acquired Brain Injury or Malignant Brain Tumour
Caring for a loved one with a serious illness like acquired brain injury (ABI) or primary malignant brain tumors (PMBT) can be a challenging and burdensome experience, often affecting the well-being and quality of life of relatives. While family and friends can provide some support, this is not always enough …
