Tarlatamab and temozolomide for brain tumors
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (tarlatamab and temozolomide) for people with certain types of aggressive brain or central nervous system tumors that have come back or not responded to standard treatment. The hope is that this combination may work better against tumors that have a specific marker called DLL3.
AngersAges 12 years+ - NCT07236840Recruiting
Remote neurological exams via smartphone for brain tumor patients
This trial tests if a smartphone app can help patients or caregivers perform a neurological exam at home. It aims to make check-ups easier for people with brain tumors.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 5 years+ - NCT04250064RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose bevacizumab with standard radiation for DIPG
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding low-dose bevacizumab (a medicine that affects blood vessel growth) to standard radiation can help children newly diagnosed with DIPG. It’s meant for certain children with a specific type of brain tumor that has not spread.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 3–18 - NCT06779487Recruiting
Predicting memory changes from brain radiation
This study looks for biomarkers in your blood that might predict how radiation treatment affects brain function. The goal is to understand and possibly reduce cognitive side effects.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 5–39 - NCT07198256Recruiting
AI-assisted diagnosis of brain tumors
This trial tests an AI tool that helps diagnose brain tumors like glioma, brain metastases, and lymphoma using MRI scans. It may allow faster and more accurate diagnosis without needing additional tests.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–100 - NCT04254419RecruitingPhase 1
Natural killer cell injections in the brain tumor area
This early-phase trial tests injections of lab-grown immune cells directly into (or near) a brain tumor. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and can help control recurrent, progressive, or resistant CNS tumors.
Columbus, OhioAges 1–39 - NCT06160492RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a Glowing Dye to Improve Brain Tumor Removal
This trial compares two surgical techniques for removing malignant brain tumors: one using a special dye (5-ALA) that makes tumor cells glow under a blue light, versus the standard white light surgery. The goal is to see if the dye-guided approach helps surgeons remove more of the tumor safely.
