Using a imaging system during brain tumor surgery
This study tests the CONVIVO system to help surgeons see certain brain tumors during surgery. It may help make operations safer and more effective by improving how tumors are identified.
Lebanon, New HampshireAges 18 years+ - NCT06831461Recruiting
Proton vs photon radiation for brain tumors
This study compares two types of radiation therapy for adults with primary brain tumors that have a good outlook (expected survival longer than 5 years). You will receive either standard photon radiation or the more targeted proton radiation, to see if one works better or causes fewer side effects.
MumbaiAges 18–70 - NCT07463625Recruiting
PET scan for finding ACTH-secreting pituitary tumors
This trial tests a special PET scan using a tracer called FET to locate tiny ACTH-producing pituitary tumors (microadenomas) causing Cushing's disease. It might help guide surgery by identifying exactly where the tumor is in the gland.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT06523582Recruiting
Genetic study of neuroendocrine tumors in Mexican patients
This study aims to find genetic causes of neuroendocrine tumors in Mexican patients. By understanding your DNA, researchers hope to improve diagnosis and treatment for people with these rare conditions.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT07595666Enrolling by invitation
New PET scanner versus standard PET for head and neck imaging
This study compares a newer PET/CT scanner (called NeuroEXPLORER) with standard PET/CT scanners for imaging the head and neck region. The goal is to see if the new scanner provides better or clearer images to help diagnose conditions.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 4 weeks+ - NCT06705036Recruiting
Study of invasive pituitary tumors in nearby brain areas
This trial studies pituitary tumors that have spread into a nearby area called the cavernous sinus. It aims to learn more about these tumors by looking at donated tissue samples and health information to improve future care.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06295952RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Pasireotide for Prolactinoma
This trial tests a drug called pasireotide for people with prolactinoma (a type of pituitary tumor) who cannot use standard dopamine agonist medicines or whose tumors do not shrink enough with them. It may be an option if surgery isn't right for you.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06472505Recruiting
Using a special mesh to prevent fluid leaks after pituitary surgery
This trial tests if using a polyglycolic acid mesh during endoscopic nasal surgery for pituitary tumors can help prevent cerebrospinal fluid leakage. This may reduce the risk of complications after surgery.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT00001595Recruiting
Study of pituitary tumors and related hormone gland disorders
This research study investigates tumors and disorders of the pituitary gland (a small gland that controls many body hormones) and related areas of the brain. You may qualify if you have a pituitary tumor or disorder, or if you have a family history of these conditions.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–70 - NCT07712328Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Desmopressin during complex sellar tumor surgery
This trial tests whether giving desmopressin (a drug that helps the body hold onto water) during surgery can prevent fluid and sodium balance problems in people having complex pituitary or sellar region tumor surgery. It’s designed for those at higher risk of these issues.
