New York, New YorkAges 2–39 - 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.
New York, New YorkAges 2–21 - NCT05271240RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted brain-artery drug added to standard treatment for new GBM
This Phase 3 trial tests whether delivering a cancer drug directly into brain blood vessels, along with standard radiation and temozolomide, works better than standard treatment alone in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM). The goal is to improve control of the tumor while comparing side effects between the two approaches.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05489783Recruiting
Study board for adults with NF1 and glioma
This study collects and reviews past and future health records for adults who have both neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and a brain tumor called glioma. The goal is to better understand these conditions and how they progress, which can help guide future research and care.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - 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.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07539441RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Mirdametinib for brain and nervous system tumors
This trial tests a drug called mirdametinib for people with specific types of brain tumors or neurohistiocytosis (a rare condition affecting the nervous system). The drug targets mutations that cause these conditions to grow.
