Imipramine plus lomustine for recurrent glioblastoma
This study tests whether combining imipramine (a medicine used for mood and sometimes nerve pain) with lomustine (a chemotherapy) can slow or treat recurrent glioblastoma that has come back after standard radiation and temozolomide. It is mainly for adults who are well enough to travel through treatment and monitoring scans and blood tests.
San Antonio, TexasAges Any age - NCT04977375RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Anti–PD-1 treatment plus focused radiation for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a cancer-immunotherapy medicine (an anti–PD-1 antibody, similar to pembrolizumab) combined with precisely targeted radiation to treat glioblastoma that has come back or progressed. It may help your immune system recognize and attack the tumor while the radiation targets the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03970447RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing several treatment options for new or returning glioblastoma
This trial studies different treatment regimens for people with glioblastoma that is either newly diagnosed or has come back. It aims to find which treatment approach works best for controlling the tumor and improving outcomes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT02394626RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery for glioblastoma that has come back
This trial studies whether operating on a brain tumor that has returned can help people with recurrent glioblastoma. It focuses on people whose scans suggest surgery is safe for important speech and movement brain areas.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT07616986Recruiting
Laser heat treatment for early-returning brain cancer
This trial tests a minimally invasive laser procedure (LITT) to treat glioblastoma that comes back very soon after initial treatment. The goal is to see if laser heat can destroy the tumor before standard radiation and chemotherapy begin, potentially improving outcomes.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT06757153RecruitingEarly Phase 1
NRG-103 injection for recurrent glioblastoma patients
This trial tests an injection called NRG-103 given directly into the cavity where a recurrent brain tumor was removed. It is for people with glioblastoma that has come back and who have already had standard treatments.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07173829Recruiting
Study of why glioblastoma comes back
This trial collects tumor samples to study what causes glioblastoma to return. It may help scientists find better treatments.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT07074756Recruiting
Home-based treatment support for people with glioma
