Recruiting studies
- NCT07076472RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Sound and drug therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new approach that combines a drug (SONALA-001 or 5-ALA) with focused ultrasound to treat glioblastoma that has come back or is growing despite standard treatments. The drug makes tumor cells sensitive to sound waves, and the ultrasound waves are directed at the tumor using MRI guidance. This may help damage cancer cells while sparing healthy brain tissue.

Columbus, OhioAges 18–70 - NCT07420543Recruiting
Liquid biopsy during brain tumor surgery with 5-ALA
This trial is studying whether a 'liquid biopsy' (a blood test) can help guide brain tumor surgery. It uses a special dye called 5-ALA to help surgeons see the tumor during surgery, and researchers will look for tumor DNA in the blood to see if it matches what is found in the tumor.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07480941RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK cell therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new treatment using engineered immune cells (CAR-NK cells) that target two markers found on glioblastoma tumors. The treatment is given directly into the brain to fight tumors that have come back after standard therapy.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07551336RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK cells for recurrent glioblastoma and high-grade brain tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy called CAR-NK cells to treat glioblastoma or high-grade glioma that has come back or gotten worse after standard treatment. The cells are engineered to recognize and attack tumor cells in the brain.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT02977780RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted treatment plan for specific glioblastoma tumor markers
This Phase 2 trial tests an individualized treatment approach for glioblastoma or gliosarcoma based on your tumor’s lab tests. It may help by matching therapy to tumor features and by checking how well this strategy works after surgery and planned radiation.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06816927RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy trial for glioblastoma with nivolumab and relatlimab
This trial tests whether two immunotherapy drugs, nivolumab and relatlimab, can help treat glioblastoma (GBM), a type of brain tumor. It is for people newly diagnosed or who haven't had radiation or chemotherapy yet and are scheduled for surgery.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05902169RecruitingPhase 3
Ultrasound with carboplatin for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a device that opens the blood-brain barrier using ultrasound, allowing chemotherapy to reach the brain tumor better. It compares this approach to standard chemotherapy for people whose glioblastoma has returned.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07091864Recruiting
Glucose monitoring for brain tumor patients
This study tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (a small device that tracks blood sugar levels) can help manage high blood sugar in people newly diagnosed with glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. It aims to see if this monitoring can improve overall health during treatment.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07501559RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of JL15003 for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial is testing a new drug (JL15003) given directly into the brain tumor using a small device called an Ommaya reservoir. It is for people whose glioblastoma has come back despite standard treatments. You will need to have had a polio vaccine booster before starting.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07733674RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new imaging agent for brain and pancreatic tumors
This early-phase study tests a new imaging agent that may help see certain solid tumors (like brain cancer or pancreatic cancer) more clearly. You will receive a single injection of a radioactive tracer, then have several scans over a few days to see where the tracer goes and how long it stays.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07173829Recruiting
Study of why glioblastoma comes back
This trial collects tumor samples to study what causes glioblastoma to return. It may help scientists find better treatments.
