Recruiting studies
- NCT05030298RecruitingPhase 1
Pre-op focused radiation for aggressive brain tumor
This early-phase study tests a type of very targeted radiation given before surgery for people with a high-grade (aggressive) brain tumor. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and potentially improves treatment, while collecting tumor and blood samples for research.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05052957RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell rescue for glioblastoma
This trial tests whether using your own blood stem cells to support high-dose chemotherapy can help treat newly diagnosed glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer. It aims to improve outcomes for patients whose tumors have a specific genetic marker (unmethylated MGMT) and who have had surgery.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04977375RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Anti–PD-1 treatment plus focused radiation for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a cancer-immunotherapy medicine (an anti–PD-1 antibody, similar to pembrolizumab) combined with precisely targeted radiation to treat glioblastoma that has come back or progressed. It may help your immune system recognize and attack the tumor while the radiation targets the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04991870RecruitingPhase 1
Early-stage immune cell therapy for recurrent grade 4 brain tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests a gene-edited immune cell treatment given into the brain to treat recurrent (returning) grade 4 glioblastoma or related tumors. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the treatment can slow tumor growth.
Houston, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT04903795RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a targeted immune therapy for EGFR-mutant glioblastoma
This Phase 1 trial tests BRiTE, a custom immune “match” therapy designed to attack glioblastoma cells that have a specific EGFRvIII change. It’s for adults with newly diagnosed or recurring grade 4 glioblastoma, aiming to see safety and whether the treatment can shrink or control tumors.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04771520RecruitingPhase 2
Avapritinib for tumors with specific KIT or PDGFRA changes
This Phase 2 trial studies avapritinib, a targeted medicine, for people whose cancer has specific KIT or PDGFRA genetic changes. It may help shrink or slow growth of certain advanced cancers, including some brain tumors, when standard treatments have not worked or for specific glioblastoma cases.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04780009Recruiting
Imaging tool during brain tumor surgery
This trial tests a special camera system used during surgery to help doctors see brain tumor tissue using fluorescent light. It may help the surgeon remove more tumor while protecting healthy brain areas.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–90 - NCT04732065RecruitingPhase 1
ONC206 for certain brain tumors in children and young adults
This Phase 1 study tests ONC206, a new targeted medicine, for diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) with a specific gene change (H3K27 altered) and for some other recurrent brain/spinal cord cancers. It is designed to find the right dose and see whether it can control or shrink tumors after initial treatment or when the cancer returns.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–21 - NCT04752280Recruiting
Radiation for glioblastoma with photon or proton beams
This trial compares two ways of giving radiation—standard photon radiotherapy (IMRT) versus proton beam therapy—for people with glioblastoma. It may help find a safer or more effective radiation approach for shrinking tumors and improving outcomes.
HeidelbergAges 18 years+ - NCT04699773Recruiting
Laser treatment then focused radiation for new brain gliomas
This trial studies a two-step treatment for newly diagnosed high-grade glioma: first laser treatment (LITT) to target the tumor, followed by a shorter, more focused course of radiation. It may help shrink or control the tumor while limiting treatment time.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04765514RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo with radiation versus chemo alone for older brain tumor patients
This trial compares two standard treatments for newly diagnosed glioblastoma (a serious brain cancer) in older and frail patients: chemo plus radiation versus chemo alone. It may help determine which approach works best and is safest for people in your age and health group.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 65 years+ - NCT04678648RecruitingPhase 1
Testing RSC-1255 in advanced cancers with RAS changes
This early study (Phase 1) tests a new drug, RSC-1255, in people with advanced or metastatic cancers that have RAS mutations. It’s mainly focused on whether the treatment can be given safely and at what dose, and to see if it may shrink tumors.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04623931RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo and radiation for IDH-wildtype glioma
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of chemotherapy and radiation after surgery for certain brain tumors that are “IDH wildtype.” It aims to control the tumor and improve outcomes for people with specific types of glioma or glioblastoma.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04655404RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Larotrectinib for children with newly diagnosed glioma with NTRK fusion
This trial tests larotrectinib, a targeted cancer medicine, in children and teens with newly diagnosed high-grade brain glioma that has an NTRK fusion. It may help shrink or control tumors by targeting a specific genetic change in the cancer.
Aurora, ColoradoAges Up to 21 years - NCT04559230RecruitingPhase 2
Treating recurrent glioblastoma with sacituzumab govitecan
This Phase 2 study tests sacituzumab govitecan in adults whose glioblastoma has come back after standard treatment (radiation plus temozolomide). It may help shrink the tumor in people whose tumor has a specific target (Trop-2).
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04573140RecruitingPhase 1
RNA vaccine study for newly diagnosed adult and pediatric brain tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies an “RNA-lipid particle” vaccine given after surgery for certain newly diagnosed brain cancers (glioblastoma in adults, high-grade glioma in children/teens). The goal is to see whether the vaccine is safe and can train the immune system to fight the tumor.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 4 years+ - NCT04547777RecruitingPhase 1
Early Phase brain tumor treatment with implanted device and injections
This Phase 1 study tests a new brain-tumor treatment in people with recurrent (coming back) high-grade glioma (brain cancer). The study uses injected medicine along with an implanted tumor device and aims to find whether the treatment is safe and can shrink or control tumors.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04479696Recruiting
Video coaching to ease anxiety during brain tumor radiation
This study tests a personalized video meant to reduce stress and anxiety for people getting radiation for brain tumors, and for their caregivers. You and your caregiver would complete short questionnaires before and after using the video support.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04427384Recruiting
Brain tumor patients treated with GammaTiles registry
This study is a patient registry for people with brain tumors who had surgery to remove as much as safely possible and then had GammaTiles placed. It mainly collects information and follow-up imaging to understand how patients do after the treatment.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT03144167Recruiting
Blood and scan markers to predict benefit from bevacizumab
This study looks for blood test markers that may predict who survives at 6 months after starting bevacizumab for glioblastoma that has come back. It does not aim to cure the cancer by itself, but to improve doctors’ ability to choose the most helpful treatment plan.
Amiens, PicardieAges 18 years+ - NCT04188535Recruiting
Scanning tumor response during radiation therapy
This study uses repeated MRI scans during radiation treatment to see how tumors change. It may help doctors adjust treatment and improve outcomes for many types of cancer.

ADCv01 added to standard care for newly diagnosed glioblastoma
This Phase 2 study tests ADCV01, given “on top of” other standard treatment, for newly diagnosed glioblastoma (grade 4 brain tumor). The goal is to see whether it helps patients live longer and safely manage tumor growth.
Taichung, Non-USAges 20–75 - NCT04047264Recruiting
Monitoring brain chemistry during brain surgery
This study tests whether a tiny probe can safely measure brain chemistry during and after brain surgery. It may help doctors better understand and treat brain conditions like tumors or epilepsy.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT03970447RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
