MoscowAges 18–80 - NCT06810544RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of TNG456 for tumors with MTAP loss
This trial tests a new drug called TNG456, alone or with another drug (abemaciclib), for people whose tumors have lost the MTAP gene. It aims to see if the combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06203496Recruiting
Monitoring brain tumors with blood tests
This trial studies whether a blood test can track the progress of a type of brain tumor called a grade 4 diffuse glioma. It may offer a less invasive way to monitor these tumors after surgery.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT05660369RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell treatment for EGFR-mutant glioblastoma
This Phase 1 trial tests a new immune treatment made from your own immune cells to attack glioblastoma (a brain tumor), especially tumors with a specific EGFR change called EGFRvIII. It mainly focuses on safety and early signs of effectiveness, and some participants will also need surgery/biopsy and an implanted port for the treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06630260RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Avutometinib and Defactinib for brain tumors
This trial tests two oral drugs, avutometinib and defactinib, in people with aggressive brain tumors like glioblastoma. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
CambridgeAges 16 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+ - NCT07391215RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Paxalisib for newly diagnosed glioblastoma after standard treatment
This trial tests a drug called paxalisib in people with a newly diagnosed aggressive brain tumor (glioblastoma) who have just finished standard radiation and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if adding paxalisib can help prevent the tumor from coming back by targeting a specific pathway in the cancer cells.
SuttonAges 16 years+ - NCT06650163RecruitingPhase 1
New imaging test for brain tumor surgery planning
This trial tests a new kind of PET scan that uses a special tracer (Zr-89 crefmirlimab berdoxam) to help doctors see brain tumors more clearly before surgery. If you are scheduled to have your brain tumor removed, this scan may give your surgeon extra information to guide the operation.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07612917Recruiting
Brain Activity Changes in Glioma Patients During Treatment
This study tracks how brain activity and connections change in patients with gliomas (brain tumors) as they receive treatment. Researchers use special brain scans to understand how treatment affects the brain's function, which may help improve care for glioma patients in the future.
Linz, Upper AustriaAges 18–64 - NCT06818331RecruitingPhase 2
Electroacupuncture study for recurring brain cancer
This trial tests if a special type of electroacupuncture can help chemotherapy (paclitaxel) reach the brain more effectively in patients whose high-grade glioma has come back after surgery. The goal is to see if this combination can slow tumor growth.
China, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang ProvinceAges 18–70 - NCT07486713RecruitingPhase 4
Olutasidenib drug interaction study for IDH1 mutation cancers
This trial tests how olutasidenib interacts with other drugs in people with cancers that have an IDH1 mutation, like certain leukemias or brain tumors. Participation may help determine the best way to take this treatment safely.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06018363RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cell therapy for recurrent high-grade glioma
This trial tests a new cell therapy (QH104) for people with an aggressive brain tumor called high-grade glioma that has come back or worsened after standard treatment. The therapy targets a specific protein (B7-H3) on tumor cells to try to fight the cancer.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18–70 - NCT05954858Recruiting
Surgical flap to help treat glioblastoma by bypassing the blood-brain barrier
This trial tests a surgical technique that places a tissue flap near a glioblastoma surgery site to help medicines reach the brain more effectively. You might be considered if you are planning major brain tumor surgery and meet specific health, imaging, and lab requirements.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06988475RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Capmatinib for cancers with MET gene changes
This study tests an oral drug called capmatinib for people whose cancers have specific changes in the MET gene (except for one type of lung cancer). It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
BelfastAges 18 years+ - NCT04299191RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
LAM561 for children with advanced brain or solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests a medicine called LAM561 in children whose cancer is advanced and not responding to standard treatment. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can shrink or control tumors in this setting.

Trial of stem cell therapy for recurrent high-grade brain tumors
This Phase 1 study tests an advanced stem-cell treatment (hMSC-DNX2401) for recurrent high-grade glioma, including certain brain tumor types that come back. It aims to see if the treatment can be safely delivered and whether it can help control the tumor after standard therapies have already been tried.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT00870129Recruiting
MRI mapping to plan radiation for certain brain tumors
This study uses MRI scans to find higher-risk areas in certain brain and other solid tumors and help plan radiation treatment. It also looks for changes in tumor “metabolites” (chemicals in the tumor) that may relate to how the tumor behaves.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07468136RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Retifanlimab with or without DFMO for progressive high-grade gliomas
This study tests a combination of two drugs—retifanlimab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer) and DFMO (a medicine that may stop tumor growth)—in people with high-grade brain tumors that are growing. Participants will receive these treatments before and after their planned surgery.
