PET scan to tell tumor growth from treatment effects in brain cancer
This trial tests whether a special PET scan can tell the difference between actual tumor growth and treatment-related changes in people with aggressive brain cancer (high-grade glioma). If you have had radiation and an MRI shows a growing lesion, this study may help clarify the cause.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT06180434Recruiting
Short-term outcomes of proton vs photon radiation for IDH-mutated gliomas
This study looks at the short-term results of proton and photon radiation therapy in people with IDH-mutated grade 2 or 3 gliomas. It compares the two types of radiation to see how well they work and what side effects might occur.
RotterdamAges 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+ - NCT06215495Recruiting
New radiation target method for high-grade glioma
This study is testing a new way to target radiation for people with high-grade gliomas (aggressive brain tumors). The goal is to see if a more precise treatment plan can improve outcomes while keeping side effects low.
GuangzhouAges 18–65 - NCT06305910RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine immunotherapy for recurrent brain tumors or newly diagnosed DIPG
This trial tests a combination of a vaccine made from tumor cells and a drug that may boost the immune system's ability to fight brain tumors. It is for children and young adults with a recurrent high-grade glioma or a newly diagnosed diffuse midline glioma with a specific genetic marker (H3K27M).
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 2–25 - NCT07678684RecruitingPhase 2
Study of HF1K16 plus bevacizumab for recurrent glioma
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs, HF1K16 and bevacizumab, for people whose glioma has come back or grown after prior treatment. It aims to see if this combination can help when standard options are no longer working or tolerable.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06330337RecruitingPhase 3
Electroacupuncture plus paclitaxel for recurrent high-grade glioma
This trial tests whether adding electroacupuncture (a type of acupuncture with mild electric pulses) to the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel can help people with recurrent high-grade glioma. The goal is to see if the combination works better than paclitaxel alone.
ZhejiangAges 18–70 - NCT06428045RecruitingPhase 1
STARLITE for hard-to-surgery high-grade brain tumors
This trial tests a new treatment called STARLITE for people with fast-growing brain tumors (high-grade gliomas) that cannot be safely removed with surgery. The treatment uses a laser to destroy the tumor from the inside. It may be a good option if you haven't had any prior treatment for this tumor.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06468176Recruiting
