NCT05474378
This is an open label, non-randomized, single site Phase I study to test the manufacturing feasibility and safety of locoregional (LR) administration of B7-H3CART into the central nervous system of adult subjects with recurrent IDH wild-type GBM using a standard 3+3 dose escalation design.
NCT07442734
Functional dyspepsia (FD) is a chronic disorder of gut-brain interaction characterized by bothersome upper abdominal symptoms arising from the gastroduodenal region. Diagnosis is made after clinical evaluation has excluded structural disease that could explain symptoms (e.g., upper gastrointestinal endoscopy). According to Rome IV criteria, FD is categorized into postprandial distress syndrome (PDS) and epigastric pain syndrome (EPS), with symptom overlap commonly observed. FD is prevalent worldwide and is associated with substantial impairment in health-related quality of life and a significant socioeconomic burden. Sleep disturbance, anxiety, and depression are frequent in FD and are associated with symptom severity and recurrence. Current management-such as prokinetic agents, acid-suppressive therapy, and psychotropic medications when indicated-can be limited by variable efficacy, adverse effects, and concerns regarding long-term use. The pathophysiology of FD is multifactorial and incompletely understood; increasing evidence highlights dysregulation of the brain-gut axis and autonomic nervous system function (12,13). Auricular vagus nerve-related stimulation may influence brainstem neurotransmission, gastric tone/motility, and mood (14), suggesting a potentially safe, non-pharmacological approach for FD with comorbid sleep problems. However, the mechanistic links among autonomic regulation, gut microbiota/short-chain fatty acids, and FD remain uncertain. This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of auricular acupoint stimulation in FD patients with sleep disorders and to explore underlying mechanisms using brain-function assessments together with autonomic and gastrointestinal-related measures.
NCT03076255
This pilot clinical trial studies how well head and neck maskless immobilization device works in immobilizing patients with head and neck cancers or intracranial tumors undergoing radiation therapy. Maskless immobilization device may help to prevent movement of head during radiation therapy and immobilize patients with the same accuracy and reliability as the standard thermoplastic mask routinely used for patients receiving radiation therapy.
NCT00928226
The maximum tolerated dose of 3-session (ie, treatment) stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to treat brain metastases greater than 4.2 cm³ in size will be determined. This study investigates if increasing radiation dose improves outcome for patients without greater toxicity (side effects).
NCT02343549
All patients will complete best standard of care radiation, temozolomide and bevacizumab (6 weeks). Within two weeks of completion of this initial treatment period, study patients will be fitted with the NovoTTF-100A System and treated continuously. They will be treated with TTFields for 12 months for an average of 18 hours per day. The patient may elect to take a treatment break for a total of 3 days per month, for each month and still be in compliance. This will consist of wearing four electrically insulated electrode arrays on the head. The patients will also continue with maintenance temozolomide/ bevacizumab.
NCT01778764
The investigators will learn from this study if the CyberKnife radiosurgery (CK RS) treatment of patients with 1-3 versus 4 or more brain metastases results in the same overall survivals. The importance of this new knowledge will be to determine the treatment efficacy of CK RS with 1-3 versus 4 or more brain metastases. The outcome of this trial would give data to support either the continuation or modification of the CK RS treatment of patients with brain metastases.
NCT01120639
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of a combination treatment for glioblastoma multiforme utilizing radiotherapy plus the FDA-approved chemotherapy drug temozolomide
NCT01135849
We hope to determine the importance of different genes (including B receptors) in anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy. This has important benefits to patients exposed to anthracyclines, as this could help determine whether certain individuals have increased susceptibility to cardiac injury.
NCT00251797
The study will try to answer these questions: 1. What is the highest dose of thalidomide brain cancer patients can receive safely in combination with irinotecan? 2. How well does this combination work to shrink brain tumors, and how long do responses to treatment last? 3. What side effects does the combination of drugs cause? 4. How does treatment affect patients' quality of life (how they feel and what activities they are able to do)?
