Seizure Treatment IN Glioma (STING): Comparing a Treatment Strategy With Levetiracetam Versus Treatment With Valproic Acid in Glioma Patients With a First Seizure

Summary: Currently, treatment with a specific anti-epileptic drug mainly depends on the physicians' preference, as there are no studies supporting the use of one specific anticonvulsant in glioma patients. The overall aim of this randomized controlled trial is to directly compare the effectiveness of treatment with levetiracetam or valproic acid in glioma patients with a first seizure.

Randomized Phase 2 Study of Valproic Acid Combined With Rechallenge Anti-EGFR Based Regimen Regimens in Pretreated Patients With RAS/BRAF Wild-type Metastatic Colorectal Cancer - VICTORIA Trial

Summary: The investigators hypothesize that the epigenetic agent valproic acid improve the activity of anti-EGFR agents, prevent and revert the emergence of EGFR resistance, in a rechallenge setting. Correlative mechanistic studies on tissue and blood samples, liquid biopsies, could identify potential biomarkers of efficacy and help understanding the evolutionary dynamics of tumors in response to therapy t...
