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+ - 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+ - NCT04166409RecruitingPhase 3
Selumetinib versus chemo for low-grade brain tumor in children
This trial studies whether the targeted drug selumetinib works better than standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and vincristine) for children and young adults with a specific type of low-grade glioma (grade 1 or 2). It may help shrink tumors and slow growth while comparing side effects between the two treatment approaches.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 2–21 - NCT04063514Enrolling by invitation
MRI-focused ultrasound study of blood-brain barrier in low-grade glioma
This study uses special imaging during routine MRI scans to check how well the blood-brain barrier lets substances pass in people with low-grade brain tumors. It may help researchers better measure and track treatment effects over time.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07649070RecruitingPhase 2
Virus therapy and low-dose radiation for children with aggressive brain cancer
This trial tests whether a special herpes virus (G207) combined with low-dose radiation can help children with high-grade brain tumors (gliomas). The virus is injected into the tumor to attack the cancer cells while radiation helps boost the effect.
Houston, TexasAges 3–21 - NCT07464925RecruitingPhase 1
Testing GLIX1 for adults with returning high-grade glioma
This trial tests a new drug called GLIX1 to find a safe dose for people whose high-grade glioma (a fast-growing brain tumor) has come back or is getting worse after earlier treatments. It may be an option if you've had no more than two prior treatments.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06504381RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
DB107 and radiation therapy for high-grade glioma
This trial tests a new two-part treatment (DB107-RRV and DB107-FC) combined with radiation, with or without the chemotherapy drug temozolomide, for people with newly diagnosed high-grade glioma. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for glioma (any grade) in the brain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 98 recruiting glioma (any grade) in the brain studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a glioma (any grade) in the brain trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a glioma (any grade) in the brain trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
