This trial is testing a very precise radiation technique called SBRT for tumors that have spread to the spine. It aims to see if this approach can treat the tumor effectively while reducing side effects.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT05957679Recruiting
Check how well an MRI test shows spinal tumor surgery challenges
This study looks at an MRI-type scan (called MRE) to measure stiffness and “adhesion” around spinal cord tumor surgery. It may help doctors plan surgery better by predicting what the tumor area will feel like and how it may stick to nearby tissues.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT06161974RecruitingPhase 2
Olutasidenib and temozolomide for IDH1-mutant high-grade glioma
This trial tests a combination of two oral medications, olutasidenib and temozolomide, for people with a specific type of aggressive brain tumor (high-grade glioma) that has an IDH1 mutation. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the tumor after standard treatment like radiation.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 12–39 - NCT07224451Recruiting
Liquid biopsy during spine surgery with blood-brain barrier disruption
This trial tests a technique called 'barrier disrupting fields' during spine surgery to temporarily open the blood-brain barrier. This may allow doctors to collect a liquid biopsy (a blood test that looks for tumor DNA) to better understand spinal tumors.
Ramat GanAges 18 years+ - NCT06042946Recruiting
Surgery for spinal cord tumors that spread from other cancers
This trial is for adults who have a specific type of spinal cord tumor that has spread from another cancer. It looks at how well a surgery called microsurgical resection works to remove the tumor and what happens to patients before and after the procedure.
Sankt GallenAges 18 years+ - NCT05296889Recruiting
Safety follow-up for Ennovate cervical device
This study checks how safely and effectively a cervical device (Ennovate® Cervical) works after it’s been used in routine care. It may help by monitoring real-world safety and performance over time.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT04863612Recruiting
SBRT for spinal tumors with possible spinal cord pressure
This study looks at treating spinal metastases (spread to the spine from a solid cancer) using SBRT, a focused type of radiation. It aims to control tumor growth and relieve or prevent spinal cord compression, sometimes alongside surgery.
Leuven, Vlaams BrabantAges 18–99 - NCT07066475Recruiting
Spinal cord glioma surgery results study
This study is collecting information from patients with spinal cord glioma who are having surgery through a specific surgical approach (dorsolateral sulcus). It aims to learn how well the surgery works and what the recovery looks like over time.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 3–75 - NCT05023772Recruiting
Laser and targeted radiation for spine metastases
This trial tests a combination treatment that uses a laser and focused radiation to shrink tumors in the spine and help stabilize the area near the spinal cord. It’s meant for adults with certain types of solid cancers that have limited spread in the spine and who are not good candidates for surgery.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07135817Recruiting
Pre-surgery radiation for spinal tumors
This trial tests whether giving focused radiation before surgery can improve treatment for spinal tumors that have spread from other cancers. It may help people who need surgery for a spinal tumor and have a life expectancy of more than 6 months.
GöttingenAges 18 years+ - NCT02790983Recruiting
Spine tumor research registry for patients and outcomes tracking
This study is a research registry that collects information from people with a primary spine tumor (or history of one) to better understand outcomes. It may help your care team by contributing your real-world data, but it is mainly about tracking rather than giving a specific new treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05890781Recruiting
